Jin Yichen said, "I was in the office handling my work when I suddenly fell asleep. I vaguely sensed that someone was carrying me downstairs and onto the car. Yesterday, he suddenly recalled the words that he could finally report to Young Master Jin. It's obvious that someone intentionally drugged me for one reason only, which was to prevent me from successfully attending the banquet! "
Jin Yichen felt a chill run down his spine. Fortunately, the few burly men he found were not locals, so they pronounced "Jin" as "Jin". Otherwise, the majority of people in S City would only have Jin Family, and would very quickly reveal their identity.
"Are you sure it's Jin?" Jin Yihan asked.
"Yes." Jin Yichen thought about it, then nodded his head.
"But we have never offended anyone with the surname of Jin? "Dad, think about it. Did you have any dealings with people with surnames like Jin in the mall?" Jin Yihan was really smart, he successfully blurred the focus and lured his father and brother to a family name. That way, they wouldn't think about who had the motivation to spoil the dinner.
Old Master Jin was a very suspicious person. If they were to think about his motive and not his surname, Old Master Jin would quickly think of him. He had been doing well overseas when he suddenly came back for a small business that didn't even need his help. Moreover, it just so happened to be at the annual dinner of Jin’s and he coincidentally met with the disappearance of his brother, so anyone would suspect that it wasn't a coincidence.
"After so many years, I have seen many competitors of various sizes. I can't remember some of their surnames. But then again, we don't remember him. He might not forget us. But luckily, this time, there's no danger in being bathed in dust, so we'll just have to be careful in the future. " The Old Master Jin said.
Early morning, Murong Aotian's private villa.
When Young Master Mu Rong woke up from his sleep, the door opened and a girl with long hair and a white skirt appeared. She clearly looked like Jin Mengyao. But why did she suddenly become Su Wanbai when she was close to him? Murong Aotian held his head, not daring to look at her. And she, gently stroking his hair, took him in her arms. He was just about to raise his head and speak to her when Jin Mengyao, who was not far away, looked at him with a face full of anger. She stretched out her bloodied hands and swiftly floated in front of him, viciously pinching his neck …
Ah!" Mu Rong Ao Tian was awakened, the hair on his forehead was all wet with sweat, sticking tightly to his head.
"Young Master, what's wrong?" Housekeeper Li pushed open the door in panic and asked with a pained expression.
"Nightmare!" Murong Aotian came back to reality and said lightly.
"Breakfast is ready, you can eat it after washing up." The Housekeeper Li said.
Murong Aotian's pupils contracted, he punched the bed hard, the thick mattress bounced up and down a few times.
"I want to drink!" Murong Aotian roared.
"Young master, you can't do this, your stomach can't take this kind of torture. Unless Miss Su Wanbai is here, then you … " Housekeeper Li blurted out the name he didn't want to hear the most due to being in a hurry.
"Don't mention her! I don't want to see that heartless woman again for the rest of my life! " Murong Aotian was too lazy to waste words with Housekeeper Li and went down to get his own wine.
It had been three days. As long as Murong Aotian returned from work, he drank non-stop, fell drunk and fell into a deep sleep. When he woke up, he started drinking again. The Housekeeper Li made him so much wine that he did not even spare a glance for it. After so many years, this was the first time Housekeeper Li had seen the Young Master being so depressed and sloppy in private.
Miss Su left. Murong Aotian had only been normal for a few days, but he suddenly fell into this crazy state.
Housekeeper Li called Jin Yihan, trying to find him. Even if it was just a few words of persuasion, it would still be of use to the young master. On the surface, Jin Yihan said that there was no problem, but there was no reply. If he tried to call again, he would either be unable to connect or had his phone shut down. He was the young master's sworn enemy, and now it seemed that this road would no longer work.
In the afternoon, when Murong Aotian woke up from his stupor, Housekeeper Li was standing in front of him with a smile on his face, as if he had something good to report.
"What is it?" "Speak!" Murong Aotian rubbed his head of messy hair and said hoarsely.
"I've contacted the Miss Su and she has asked me to pass this to you!" Housekeeper Li carefully offered it up with both hands.
It was a little grey demon figurine, slightly larger than the palm of his hand. It could be considered to be of exquisite craftsmanship. He unzipped the middle one and a miniature tape recorder fell out. Murong Aotian looked up as Housekeeper Li stared at this strange thing with anticipation.
"Throw it in the trash, I don't care!" Murong Aotian suddenly erupted with rage.
"Oh." Housekeeper Li was stunned.
One second, he was playing with it with interest, the next second, he wanted to throw it away so easily.
What happened to the young master?
Housekeeper Li secretly put the figurine into the trash can and turned to leave the room.
Murong Aotian stared at the trash can in a daze. After an unknown amount of time, he suddenly rushed over and picked up the figurine. There were tiny bits of paper on the doll, which he carefully brushed away. After unzipping the recorder, he saw that it was in a very conspicuous position. He only pressed it for a bit, and after the creaking noise ended, a familiar voice came out. It was Su Wanbai.
"For Housekeeper Li's sake, let me give you a few words of advice: although it is easy to change one's nature, but if you continue to live in this abnormal way, you are destined to die early. We'll never have anything to do with each other again, and I'll soon forget about you. Bless you for meeting true love and living happily ever after. "
Just a few words? Finished?
Murong Aotian listened to it more than a dozen times, his face turning red from anger.
This reckless woman dared to call him a pervert, and she even cursed him to die! The most important thing was that she had to forget about him! Didn't she know that she had planted a seed of love in his dark heart? He would never meet true love again, because she was his true love.
But it was all over, it was too late! If he could reverse the flow of time, he definitely wouldn't bring her to participate in the Jin’s's anniversary dinner. He would rather have her by his side, even if she would hate him for her entire life. Now, when the building was empty, he was madly thinking about her, and he was about to collapse!
The iron giant fell, and for the first time in his life he had a high fever.
He had tried every method, medicine, injection, and infusion, but he had always had a high fever.
He held the Demon Doll tightly in his hands as he listened to the recording.
Housekeeper Li had tried many times, but still couldn't pry open his pincer sized hand. Poor young master, he kept mumbling, his lips were dry and cracked, and there was even a trickle of blood. His face was frighteningly pale, as if even his soul had left his body.
One day, two days, three days. His body temperature fluctuated between high and low, but it was unable to steady itself.
In the middle of the night on the fourth day, Murong Aotian suddenly opened his scarlet eyes as the corner of his mouth raised into a mysterious smile.
"Young Master, you're finally awake!" Housekeeper Li let out a long breath.
"Su Wanbai, do you wish for me to die so I can die quickly? Did you say that if there was no relation, there would be no relation? I really want to show it to you. After living for such a long time, I don't believe that you won't fall in love with me! " Murong Aotian clenched his teeth and said to the air.
The young master had thought it through and the Housekeeper Li was really happy for him.
Who was Murong Aotian? He was an overweeningly formidable person in the shopping mall. Nothing could beat him. However, there was only one thing for him to do. He never thought that the heartless young master would meet his nemesis so suddenly. He loved her and tortured her, and she kept resisting, wanting to kill him. The two of them were destined to hurt each other in this life, and they were bound to care about each other as well.
But, if the Young Master knew that this recording did not come from Su Wanbai, how would he punish her for lying?
Her back tightened, as if she felt a great chill run from her soles to her head.
The Housekeeper Li did bribe Jin Yihan's servants to message Su Wanbai, hoping that she would call her young master to comfort him. However, she rejected him without thinking. Feeling extremely helpless, she could only let the servant secretly record Su Wanbai's voice, and then find an acoustical actor with extremely strong imitation ability to record these words. With regards to the contents of the recording, Housekeeper Li had thought about it a lot. It was too soft, and Murong Aotian could easily see through it. She had used up a lot of brain cells to come up with this line, but he didn't expect it to have such an encouraging effect, and soon the young master would be able to recover from his depression.
"This figurine …" Housekeeper Li did not expect the young master to retrieve it.
"I'm just curious!" Now go and burn it! " Murong Aotian said coldly.
Housekeeper Li smiled, she picked up the bag and put it in his own pocket, secretly making up his mind. It seemed that it was better not to throw it away. If one day the young master asked her for it again, where would she get it from, and get someone else to record it? The first time was already a huge risk to her, how could he dare to do it again!
Murong Aotian sat up and got off the bed, he suddenly stood up and almost lost his balance. Luckily, Housekeeper Li managed to support him in time.
"Young master, your fever is not over yet. You should rest first." The Housekeeper Li said.
"Tomorrow, the corporation has a few new projects to take care of." Murong Aotian calmed himself down and headed straight for the study.
The Housekeeper Li then walked in and stood by his side.
"Bring me the portrait of the dead woman and hang it on the opposite wall." Murong Aotian said.
"It's already hung up." The Housekeeper Li said.
Murong Aotian raised his head, and sure enough, the picture was already inlaid with an exquisite glass frame, and was hung in the center.
He squinted his eyes to look at it for a while, as if he was imagining the movements and expression of Su Wanbai when he painted this painting. He still said that he didn't love her, so how could her impressions of him be so mesmerizing? He drew his eyebrows together slightly, dissatisfied with the shape of his lips. He couldn't help but touch his lower lip. This damned woman was simply making him ugly. How could such a perfect man become a ferocious devil in her eyes? The Demon was Su Wanbai's nickname towards him. Although he did not like it, but she had slowly gotten used to it.
Housekeeper Li turned around quietly and walked out of the study room.
Just then, a servant delivered the coffee that the young master had instructed, Housekeeper Li frowned and stopped her.
"Let's change it to yogurt!" The Housekeeper Li said.
"Alright." the servant whispered.
Housekeeper Li felt that it was about time, he opened the door gently and placed a cup of yoghurt on Murong Aotian's table.
Murong Aotian's gaze did not leave the document, as he took a sip from it with one hand.
After drinking too much, yogurt actually got used to it slowly, and no longer felt strange about its taste.
His lips curled up into a charming smile. He missed her again!
