The villa looked as luxurious as ever, but its owner had long changed!
It was at that place that she was raised by the young master seven years ago and became his child's lover … The torment of that night was just like the nightmare that had occurred last night. No matter how hard she tried, she could not get rid of those nightmares …
"Honey, why did you come here?" Suddenly, a gentle voice interrupted Su Anhui's reverie, "Let's go downstairs, there's a guest!"
Su Anhui took a deep breath to calm his emotions and turned around to look at this woman who was as gentle and beautiful as water. He smiled and said, "Big sister, why did you come upstairs? Are you alright? "
The Shen family didn't say much about Shen Mengyao's illness. Even if it was just a few words, Su Anhui could roughly guess that Shen Mengyao's illness not only couldn't be agitated, but even more so couldn't be subjected to intense exercise! At this time, he climbed up the stairs to invite Anhui Province. Could it be that some important guest had arrived at the Shen family?
Shen Mengyao looked at Su Anhui with a smile, "I'm fine now, come downstairs and meet your guest!"
Shen Mengyao looked a little worried, "Madam Ji, Tian Xi's mother is here!"
"Madam Ji, this is my niece, Shen Mi Er. Mi Er, come and greet Madam Ji!" Seeing the people from the Su Family, Jiang Shuo Lan introduced them politely.
"Greetings, Madam Ji!" Su Anhui politely nodded her head as she sized up the well-maintained and well-dressed Madam Ji from the corner of her eyes. She was slightly praising this forty-year-old woman for being able to maintain such a good body. Ji Tianxi's shadow could be faintly seen between her brows and expression.
"What a beautiful girl, what a pity she's all alone …" Madam Ji kindly pulled Su Anhui's hand and sat down. She smiled and said, "Sit down. Come and chat with us!"
Hearing her mention his parents, Su Anhui's eyes reddened, and she nodded and sat down obediently.
In his heart, however, he was puzzled as to the purpose of this Madam Ji's visit. Shen Ruxin and Ji Tianxi had a quarrel last night. Did Madam Ji's visit have anything to do with this?
A servant brought coffee and fruit. Madam Ji carried the cup and turned from their usual conversation to an embarrassed one. "Shulan, my Tian Xi is not very sensible. If you have any business, please don't take it to heart!"
As she spoke of Ji Tianxi, Shen Ruoxi, who was sitting to one side, anxiously raised his head to look at Jiang Shulan!
Su Anhui pretended not to hear anything and sat in the corner of the sofa. It was so quiet that it seemed as if it didn't exist, while his ears quietly listened to their conversation!
"Madam Ji, I also admire that child, Tian Xi!" Jiang Shulan looked at Madam Ji with a face of pity, and sighed. "Otherwise, I wouldn't have agreed to this marriage without hesitation. Only …" Look at how many times they have argued with each other. Let alone the two of them, even we cannot be at peace! "
"Yes, yes …" They are still immature, and problems do exist in this area! " Madam Ji quickly agreed.
Shen Ruoxi, who was standing at the side, looked worriedly at Jiang Shulan. She wanted to say something, but a cold glare stopped her.
"As a mother, every time I see them arguing and crying, I also feel sad. Yesterday, she almost got into an argument because of them, so I thought in my heart, no matter how good that child Tian Xi is, if he doesn't have any fate with our family, I really can't force him. I might as well let them separate for a while, if they think things through and don't want to be together, our elders will not be able to stop them, but if it's just a fresh time and we forget about each other, then we can only sigh that fate doesn't matter anymore … "
Listening to Jiang Shuo Lan's euphemistic words, Su Anhui was shocked beyond words!
He originally thought that what he said last night was just to scare Shen Ruxin, he didn't think that she was actually speaking the truth!
Regardless of whether it was the Shen family or the Ji family, they both had great influence in Binhai City. Their consortium was considered the best in Binhai City.
Not Changed
And now, Jiang Shuo Lan actually took the initiative to propose a marriage alliance between the two families. Furthermore, Shen Rui Xin didn't look that surprised, she had obviously already made preparations beforehand. Then, was it because of their financial conflict, or was it because Jiang Shuo Lan couldn't stand watching the two of them bickering?
"Shulan, you're right about all this!" Madam Ji's words interrupted Su Anhui's daydreaming. She sighed and said, "Rui Xin is a good child, so I can only blame my family's Tian Xi for being bewitched by the fox spirits outside. As a mother, I really don't have the face to speak up for her. "I can't blame him entirely now. I can tell that he really likes Rui Xin. If they split up, his mind might be muddled, but after a while, both of them will be in pain …"
"Madam Ji, look …" When she saw Madam Ji's eyes reddened, her words sincere and sincere, Jiang Shuo Lan didn't know how to refute!
"Mom …" Shen Ruxin moved a little closer to Jiang Shuo Lan, tugging on her sleeve. Her soft voice sounded like she was a little girl!
"Don't call me, you can only blame yourself for not keeping up. If you had the ability, you wouldn't have let your fiancé go out with other women …"
"Auntie —" A sudden voice caught everyone's attention. They saw Ji Tianxi, who was rushing in through the door!
"Tian Xi, why are you here?" Madam Ji was slightly surprised. "Didn't I tell you to calm down before coming here to apologize?"
Jiang Shuo Lan only kept her face dark and didn't say a word.
Shen Ruxin sneaked a glance at Ji Tian Xi. She didn't look too good either!
She was probably truly angry, but if Jiang Shuo Lan wanted to cancel the engagement, she was probably unhappy.
"Auntie, it's all my fault. Rui Xin is your daughter, and you know her character. I know you're being reasonable, so listen to my explanation once. If I'm done, and you think I have no reason, then even if this marriage is dissolved, I won't be able to tell you!"
"You …"
"Tian Xi …"
Shen Ruxin and Madam Ji both looked at Ji Tianxi in astonishment. They didn't expect her to say such words at this time!
"Tianxi, are you blaming your aunt for not teaching your daughter well?" Jiang Shulan looked displeased. "I admit, they didn't have a father since a long time ago. I doted on them too much. However, no matter how pampered my daughter is, I still know. If you didn't do anything excessive outside, she wouldn't be this upset …"
"Auntie, that's not what I meant. Listen to me explain everything clearly. It's not too late for you to say these things!" Ji Tian Xi's tone became a bit gentler.
"Aunt, why don't you listen to Brother Tianxue's words. Don't be sad, you're making a joke in front of Madam Ji!" Su Anhui, who had been silent all this time, looked at Ji Tianxi's haggard face. She must have had a hard time last night. After hesitating for a while, she tried to dissuade Ji Tianxi.
Shen Rui Xin seemed to think that she liked to force herself on him. She glared at him and said coquettishly, "Mom, just let him say it!"
Jiang Shuo Lan sighed, "If that's the case, then say it!"
Ji Tianxi sat down and looked at Jiang Shulan with a serious face. "I admit that I was a playboy before, and that the women who accompanied me were like carp in a haystack. But after meeting Rui Xin, I've already restrained myself. I've already said it many times, I don't have any relationship with her, it's just that … "I just wanted to discuss some serious matters with her. As for those lowly matters, I definitely wouldn't involve myself with Li Na. But no matter what I say, Rui Xin just doesn't believe me!"
How do you expect me to believe you? I'm going to hit you again and again, and again. It's hard for me to believe you! " "Her eyes turned red as she complained. Her voice also became choked with sobs!
"I …" Ji Tian Xi looked as though he wanted to say something but hesitated. After waiting for a while, he seemed to be unable to bear it any longer. He looked at Shen Rui Xin and said, "Rui Xin, I think we should accept your suggestion!" His gaze suddenly turned towards Jiang Shuo Lan, who had a serious expression on her face as she finished speaking. Shen Ruxin's expression immediately changed.
Even the people of the Su and Anhui provinces were surprised, which act did this kid sing? He was just saying that he wanted to reunite with her, but how did he change his face after just a single sentence from Shen Ruxin?
Shen Rui Xin never expected Ji Tian Xi to say something like this. Fear and astonishment flashed past her eyes. She bit her lips and looked at Ji Tian Xi with grief!
Ji Tian Xi's expression was sorrowful. He looked at Shen Rui Xin and said, "The first time I was filmed, I told you that I was talking about serious matters with Li Na, but what about you? Did you trust me once? "I did have the heart to admit it in the past, but after being with you, I've completely restrained myself. There's only you in my heart, I thought you would know …"
He looked at Shen Rui Xin and said, "If you really want to know, then let me tell you, the reason why I go to see Li Na so often is to find out the whereabouts of that 'Dawn'. On the day of our engagement, you told me, if you could have the 'Star of the Desert,' if you could have the 'Dawn', you would be satisfied for the rest of your life. Shen Ruoxin's mouth was wide open. At that time, she couldn't say a single word!
"Others might not have this thing, but Li Na does. Do you still remember the news from seven years ago?" Ji Tian Xi's face was filled with disappointment. "I just wanted to give you a pleasant surprise, so I wanted to find 'Breaking Dawn' to propose to you. But … But when did you ever believe me? "
"Tian Xi, I …" Shen Rui Xin's expression became complicated, mixed with happiness and regret. She didn't know what to say.
Ji Tian Xi's face was filled with disappointment, "You've never believed in me before, so I know … Forget it, aunty is right. Perhaps our relationship isn't strong enough. Since all of you think so, then … Let's break up! "
"Tianxi —"
Shen Ruxin and Madam Ji screamed at the same time, their faces filled with disbelief as they looked at Ji Tianxi!
Ji Tianxi took a deep breath and looked at Madam Ji with disappointment. "Mom, I know what you're thinking, but …" But I'm tired too, really! "
Finished speaking, Ji Tianxi turned around and quickly left before anyone could even react. Shen Rui Xin couldn't sit still any longer and immediately stood up to chase after him, "Tian Xi, Tian Xi, listen to my explanation …"
Just as she stepped out of the door, Jiang Shuo Lan called out to her. "Rui Xin, stop —"
