She waited for a while, then a girl wearing a white uniform came over and politely said: "Miss Jian Ning, Young Master has instructed me to bring you out for a walk."

"Miss, you can just call me Xiao Ai."

"Yes." She replied respectfully, obviously not taking Jian Ning's words seriously at all.

Since his kindness could not be seen by others, Jian Ning did not continue speaking, but the smile on her face did not decrease in the slightest.

Xiao Ai led Jian Ning into the garden at the back. Just as she was sighing at the impressive architect, she saw Shang Jin walking to the other side with a darkened face.

Just as she was about to go up and take a look, Xiao Ai who was in time noticed her and hurried forward to stop her, shaking his head at her.

"I'll just go in and take a look, then we'll leave." She held up a finger, indicating that she had only taken one look.

But Xiao Ai still rejected it decisively, she could not bear to see Jian Ning's aggrieved face, so she turned away.

"Miss Jian Ning, don't make things difficult for me, if the young master finds out about this, my skin would be ripped off."

"It's that serious?" Jian Ning shouted in disbelief.

However, this made her even more interested. Just what was this thing that was so mysterious?

Seeing her expression, Xiao Ai knew that she was definitely curious about the things inside. She became flustered for a moment, and didn't know how to explain it.

Jian Ning also knew that she was truly anxious now, but she did not dare to show it. She could only pretend to look around at the scenery, and slowly move towards that direction.

Just as he was about to reach the door, Jian Ning felt the blood in her body starting to boil, and she couldn't help but increase her pace.

Maybe because he was too fast, Xiao Ai immediately realised it as she ran over to stop her: "My young miss, I beg of you, please give me a way out. If you go, Uncle Shang will definitely kill me."

Is it that serious? Jian Ning looked at her in disbelief, then looked at the direction where Shang Jin had just left with a conflicted expression.

She pursed her lips and walked forward to grab onto Xiao Ai's arm, a crafty smile quickly flashed past her eyes: "Xiao Ai, then this, I won't go over, help me get some food to eat okay? We'll wait here for Shang Jin to come out."

After waiting for Xiao Ai to feel conflicted for a while, she nodded her head. Then, she looked at Jian Ning nervously and warned: "Then little miss, you cannot run around randomly."

Jian Ning looked at her seriously, nodded heavily, and patted her shoulders as she guaranteed her: "Don't worry, I will definitely stand here."

Because he was looking at her for a very long time, Xiao Ai finally left with worry. Furthermore, it was to the point that she had to turn back three times with each step she took, leaving her line of sight.

Jian Ning intentionally looked in the direction that Xiao Ai had left in, and after confirming that she had left, Jian Ning then clapped her hands: "Everyone is curious, this little lady still doesn't understand."

In fact, besides not wanting to be stopped by her, Jian Ning still wanted to push her away. If she was scolded by Shang Jin, then he would be the only one left.

She looked around to make sure that there was no one around before she bent down and asked for Shang Jin, carefully running into the courtyard to look for Shang Jin's whereabouts.

Arriving at a very shabby looking room, she saw the shadow of Shang Jin. She raised her hand to call out to him, but then realized that she had sneakily followed him here and immediately gave up on this idea.

When Shang Jin stopped, Jian Ning also found a very secluded place and squatted down.

She stretched out her neck to look at the situation outside, focusing all of her attention to Shang Jin's side.

Shang Jin stood at the door for a while, then slowly pushed open the door that would fall if he touched it, and walked in.

The moment she heard the sound of "gege", she knew that Shang Jin had entered. She was just about to stand up and go to the door to take a look, when she saw the Shang Bo holding a black basket walking towards her.

She quickly squatted down and waited for Uncle Shang to leave before she stood up again. In her hand was a bamboo basket that she had found from who knows where. She put it in front of her to protect herself. He slowly moved forward.

When she finally reached the door, she was about to stand up and take a look inside when a pair of black leather shoes appeared in front of her.

She secretly cursed in her heart before slowly raising her head again, forcing herself to smile as she looked at Shang Jin: "What a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet you here."

Shang Jin still did not speak, he only stared at himself, his pitch black pupils seemed to want to swallow him up.

"Get up." Shang Jin called out to her in disdain, and spoke to her indifferently.

Knowing that she was in the wrong, she hurriedly stood up. It was only because she was frightened just now that it was difficult for her to even straighten her body, and if she was not careful, she directly fell into Shang Jin's embrace.

He wanted to stand up, but just as he moved, Jian Ning felt that her feet didn't feel anything at all.

She could faintly hear Shang Jin inhale a deep breath, as if he was about to erupt with even more rage.

He bent down and carried Jian Ning right away, and expressionlessly walked out the door.

There was still no expression on his face, and Jian Ning could only obediently let him hug her, not daring to say a word.

Shang Jin carried her straight to the guest room before warning her, "Don't run around here, many places are taboo."

"But I'm just curious. I want to get involved in your past." After she finished speaking, even Jian Ning herself was stunned, she never thought that she would actually say such a thing.

Shang Jin was also surprised, but his expression softened. He touched the back of Jian Ning's head and said: "If you want to know anything, just ask me."

Her mind was in a mess, and she didn't know what to say.

Jian Ning looked at Shang Jin, and then lowered his head, not knowing how to explain anything.

"Cough …"

Shang Jin faked a cough, and avoided her gaze somewhat evasively, "If you want to go, go directly with the people here. If you don't want to go, then be obedient and don't go."

"Got it." Jian Ning replied softly, and then smiled as she raised her head and asked, "Are we only going to stay here for one night?"

"You want to stay here?" Shang Jin's expression instantly turned cold, but when he looked at Jian Ning's expression, he did not have the heart to refuse.

Seeing his expression change again, Jian Ning immediately shook his head: "Nothing, actually, compared to here, I prefer Jingshan Villa."

After all, he had been on the other side for so long, he had some feelings for that place.

After hearing that, he nodded his head in satisfaction and rubbed the top of her hair before leaving.

Just as he left, Xiao Ai entered and looked at her with an aggrieved expression.
