"Hello." Ji Mufeng picked up the phone and a flustered voice came out of the receiver.
"Boss is in trouble, Supervisor Gu is in trouble, Supervisor Gu is currently in the emergency room …"
"What?" Ji Mufeng's face changed, "What happened?"
"Supervisor Gu and the others were attacked by Chu Yan, Miss Jane was shot, Supervisor Gu was shot, and he suffered heavy casualties."
"Alright, I understand."
Ji Mufeng's face turned grim. Only now did he realize that he wasn't able to pick up the phone in the first place. He had called several times already, but he was no longer able to do so.
Gu Wanyang was sent home, and Jane Xu's body was also sent back to the country. Ji Mufeng remembered that Jane told him that he wanted to be buried in a beautiful place after death. Ji Mufeng spent a lot of money to buy a nice looking grave and bury Jane Xu.
Ji Mufeng was very busy since he hadn't been able to find Jian Xu's family. Gu Wanyang was still in the hospital, so Leng Ning and Ji Ruxue were taking care of everything.
"Knock." The door was knocked, and Ji Mufeng's gaze was fixated on the document in his hands.
"Come in."
Ji Ruxue was wearing a long, pure black dress that accentuated her snow-white skin. "It's all done."
"Yes."
Ji Ru Xue turned to leave, but Ji Mu Feng suddenly called out to her, "Where were you the last few days?"
"Gu Youyang's home." Since he couldn't hide it for the rest of his life, he might as well admit it. Ji Ruxue admitted it easily. Gu Youyang's heart rate monitor inside the hospital suddenly changed drastically.
"Hmm?" Ji Mufeng put down the document in his hands, "Just the two of you?"
"No, there's also Jane."
"Jian Xu only stayed at Gu Wanyang's house for less than two days. What happened before that?" Ji Mufeng's tone was tinged with an indescribable tinge of oranges.
"He's here too." Ji Ruxue did not know why Ji Mufeng suddenly mentioned this matter.
"What?" Ji Mufeng suddenly stood up and slammed the table, "You're not allowed to be alone with men in the future."
"Alright." Ji Ruxue said as she walked out of the room.
"What are you doing?" I haven't finished. "
Ji Ruxue tilted her head and looked at Ji Mufeng with a puzzled expression, "Didn't you say you can't be alone with a man? Are you not a man? "
Ji Mufeng's face turned ashen. He didn't expect that this little girl wouldn't let him off so easily. However, he didn't know that Ji Ruxue had only voiced his doubts.
"A man other than me."
"Why?" Ji Ru Xue still couldn't understand Ji Mu Feng's words. He clearly said that he couldn't be alone with a man, but why did he have to be excluded? Could it be that Ji Mufeng wasn't a man? However, she didn't say it out loud. She had already said something. When she finished speaking, Ji Mufeng's face turned black.
"Because, because …" Ji Mufeng was stunned for a long time, but he did not say anything. This was the first time he did not know what to say.
"Because I saved you. You're mine."
"I'm yours?" For some reason, when Ji Ruxue heard these words, she suddenly felt very happy in her heart. All the unhappiness from before disappeared in an instant.
"Then will you be alone with Feng Qingyun?"
"Nope." How could he be alone with Feng Qingyun? The engagement banquet was when he exposed Feng Qingyun's false appearance, and at that time, this person should not have any relationship with him, so how could he be alone.
"Then, what about the other women?"
"Nope."
"Alright." Ji Ru Xue suddenly smiled happily. Although Ji Mu Feng was confused and didn't know what she was laughing about, he was relieved when he saw her smile. She hadn't laughed much recently, so he was still a bit worried.
"You've been busy all day, go back and rest." Ji Mufeng rubbed his brows, why did he have to talk to this girl, it was as if he was tired from a battle.
Ji Ruxue didn't say anything as she turned around and left. From the view of her back, it was obvious that she was in a much better mood.
However, from the time of the attack, the previous call should have belonged to Gu Youyang and the rest of them. Why had he not received one yet? And the number seemed a little familiar.
Thinking of this, Ji Mufeng got up and walked over to the bookshelf and started flipping through it. Not long later, he found a small brown book.
That number was Jane. It should have been Jane asking for help, but why didn't he answer that phone. If he did, would he be in a different state now?
He took out a small box from the top of the bookcase and slowly opened it. There was a pendant inside. The pendant was from a Bodhi seed. It was hollow and contained a small red bean.
This was given to Ji Mufeng by Jian Xu. Ji Mufeng remembered that on the 17th of the eighth month, Jane told him to go out mysteriously, and then gave it to him, saying that she made it herself.
After all, they had loved each other. How could they say that they were separated now?
He closed the box and locked it in the deepest part of the cabinet. It was best not to see this kind of thing in the future. It was a sad past, and there was nothing much to remember.
It was the rainy season and the rain came as soon as he said it. The previously cloudy sky was now overcast with heavy rain. Ji Mufeng suddenly remembered that Ji Ruxue did not bring an umbrella. He picked one up and chased after her.
Ji Ruxue was no longer at the door. Ji Mufeng drove the car forward to search for her.
Ji Ru Xue squatted under a tree. The tree wasn't shaded too much, but it was too dense for the rain to come in. She decided to avoid the rain and see if it would stop later.
The Ji Residence was located halfway up the mountain. Usually, very few people came here. Since it was raining now, Ji Ru Xue couldn't even find a car. She stayed under the tree's shade, looking rather miserable.
Ji Mu Feng saw the small figure under the tree from far away, and the image flashed past his mind. It was also raining heavily that day, so Ji Ru Xue stood in the rain and turned around to leave. At that time, the phone in his pocket rang, but because he was in a bad mood, he immediately pressed it.
Could it be at that time? Was that when Jane called?
