It was just that Shang Jin didn't have the heart to punish her at the moment. After giving her a few lashes, he got his men to lock her up.
When he came out of Liu Yiwei's room, he went straight to the study room. However, he did not take care of any official business, but just sat there in a daze.
When Jian Ning returned, she found Zhang Xianzhe waiting for him at the door. Zhang Xianzhe was walking back and forth as if he was very anxious.
Zhang Xianzhe walked behind her and said: "I finally managed to get you to have a good impression of me. If you get hooked by someone else, what would I do?"
Although they were joking, both of them understood the seriousness in his words.
Jian Ning's hands paused for a while, then said again: "Yin Zhe, I want to bring my mother away from here, do you have any good suggestions?"
"What kind of environment do you want to choose?" He asked without thinking.
However, after he said those words, he felt that something was wrong. He was surprised and pleasantly surprised.
"You mean?" Had she agreed to be with him?
Jian Ning smiled and nodded, she walked in front of him and looked up to see only her own shadow in his eyes, then said: "That's what I meant."
"Jian Ning." He tightly hugged Jian Ning in his embrace, and deeply kissed the top of her head. She was unable to stop her tears from flowing down.
He had finally arrived at this day.
She hugged him back and slowly closed her eyes, thinking about accepting a man again. It didn't seem so hard.
Actually, all of these were to thank Shang Jin. If not for his sudden appearance today, Jian Ning would not have made his decision so quickly.
After a long while, he finally let go of Jian Ning and lovingly caressed her face, his thumb slowly moving towards her red lips that he had missed for a long time.
"I'll love you." He solemnly swore.
Jian Ning was still smiling, but she still felt a little disappointed. She seemed to still be expecting that man to say that to her.
Zhang Xianzhe saw her disappointment in his eyes, but did not express it.
Seeing that it was getting late, Zhang Xianzhe had other things to take care of, so he left reluctantly.
After he left, the entire room became empty. Jian Ning actually felt a little lonely.
When night fell, Qi Rui was called over to the merchant house to accompany him in his room to drink.
"I say, what are you trying to do, brat?" Qi Rui rolled his eyes, and pointed at his nose drunkenly, and asked curiously.
What is it? He did not know the answer to this question. He picked up the bottle and gulped down a mouthful of wine, and a large portion of it disappeared into his mouth.
"At first, I thought you liked Jian Ning, but seeing your attitude towards her, it doesn't seem like it. he said stupidly, holding the bottle.
Shang Jin turned his head and looked at him deeply, then asked: "What is the feeling of liking someone?"
"Feel?" He laughed again, "Heh heh... When you truly fall in love with her, you will understand that you will think that she has acted in either joy or sadness, that she is intimate with others, that you will be jealous, that she does not care about you, that you will be angry, that you will be happy for a long time because of a small matter. "
This feeling was very familiar to him. However, he didn't feel anything, which was very contradictory.
Shang Jin silently lowered his head, he did not know what exactly he was thinking about, and it was very deep.
The two of them were silent, the bottles were empty one after another, until the very end, Shang Jin was also a little drunk.
He stood up and walked shakily to the room opposite and fell onto the bed that he cleaned every day.
What to do, he realized that he seemed to miss Jian Ning a lot, and wanted to lock her by his side for the rest of his life.
Qi Rui followed him over. He was confused as if she saw the expression in his eyes and immediately sobered up.
He sized up the room. It was only after a long time did he realize that this was Jian Ning's room.
"Shang Jin, do you like Jian Ning?" He thought of a bold idea and blurted it out before opening the door.
Do you like it? Shang Jin grabbed onto his blanket with a complicated expression. The first time he was asked if he liked Jian Ning, he did not deny it.
"You must like her." This time, Qi Rui said with certainty.
Yes, there was nostalgia in his eyes. When he talked about Jian Ning, his eyes became very gentle, and if he didn't like it, he would take off his head.
"Do I like her?" Shang Jin sat up, and looked at Qi Rui in confusion. It looks like she really didn't know what he liked.
"If you didn't know that you liked it, why would you be together with Liu Yiwei in the past?" His eyelids twitched. She felt like she was about to become a member of the Gossip Society.
"Time's up." He said calmly, and under Qi Rui's gaze of disbelief, he firmly nodded his head, to show that what he said was all true.
This reason, Qi Rui really did not know how to refute, nor did he know what to say.
"Maybe you should clear this up with Jian Ning." He gave Shang Jin a heartfelt suggestion.
Shang Jin's eyes suddenly lit up, that's right, he had not even confessed, if he had, she would definitely be back.
"Thank you." He stood up and lightly tapped his chest.
Seeing his close friend suddenly come to life, he felt a wave of joy. To be able to make Shang Jin understand the person he liked in his heart, he felt happy as well.
"Liu Yiwei, how do you plan to deal with it?" he asked with a frown.
When mentioning Liu Yiwei, Shang Jin also felt a headache. It was all because of this woman that he and Jian Ning had become like this, but right now, he couldn't even touch her.
"The movements of the Liu Family are getting bigger. I believe they won't be using this anymore."
Shang Jin nodded in agreement, pursed his lips and said seriously: "Now we can only wait, after all that isn't our territory."
Seeing that he was still able to handle the situation calmly, Qi Rui was finally able to relax. This person was the Shang Jin that he knew.
But now, they should not be talking about official matters, but thinking about how to chase Jian Ning back.
"I want to hold a press conference these two days to explain my rumors and tell her my decision in front of the media."
