He turned on the light, and the warm light suddenly lit up, cutting off the endless darkness in the room and the endless fear in her heart.
It was like a person who had been thirsty in the desert for a long time suddenly seeing water and an oasis. It made people go crazy.
There was a phone lying on the ground with a broken screen. He picked it up and checked the contact information on it. Among the recent contacts displayed, other than him and Lin Yan, there was Xie Zhiqian, Secretary Yang, and Zhang Sao. There were no unfamiliar numbers calling.
He sat by the bed, and as if he had a natural attraction, the girl immediately leaned over.
“Ji Yunshen, will the vengeful spirit really take revenge? ” Qiao man’s forehead was covered in cold sweat after the shock. Her fingertips, which were gripping the quilt, could not help but tremble.
It was an instinctive reaction after the shock.
“I didn’t think of harming anyone. It was her, it was her… she accidentally fell in… ”
“SHH SHH SHH! Calm down. ”
His slender fingers placed on her Cherry Lips, stopping her from continuing. His elegant voice sounded especially low and gentle in the late night room.
“Can you tell me what exactly happened? ”
Qiao man tidied up her hair in a daze. Her clear voice was filled with guilt and pain that she could not suppress.
“When I was thirteen, I once saw my maid fall into the water with my own eyes. At that time, my Lord was not around, so I was very afraid. I wanted to save her, but I didn’t dare. By the time my Lord returned, the maid had already drowned… ”
“I heard that when she died, she was already five months pregnant. ” She paused, her almond-shaped eyes filled with darkness “later, her family called the police and pulled up the surveillance video of my house. When they found me standing next to them, they insisted that I was a murderer. There was a huge ruckus in the government and the court, but my grandfather suppressed it. After that, the matter was settled. ”
“over the years, many people envied my identity and my family background, but very few people knew about the black holes in my heart. ”
“That’s right. The accident of the servant drowning back then had a great impact on me. During the years of puberty, I had nightmares almost every night. I would suffer from sleep disorders and mild depression. I couldn’t leave this matter alone. ”
After saying that, she was silent for a few seconds before continuing “Ji Yunshen, will the vengeful spirit really seek revenge on someone? ” “because I was afraid, I was unable to save the Servant and the child in her stomach. Therefore, she sent people to look for me and the child to avenge her and the child in her stomach. Yes, it’s like this. It must be like this. ”
Ji Yunshen reached out his hand to touch her forehead. He brushed away the black hair on her forehead that was drenched in cold sweat. His actions were gentle and gentle, as if he was afraid of scaring her.
“Have you taken the medication for your recent depression? ”
Qiao man shook her head. Her eyes were as calm as water. “I haven’t. ”
“Yes. Previously, when you were bleeding heavily, you were afraid that you wouldn’t be able to save your child. Therefore, you were in a state of high anxiety and subconsciously thought that you and your child were in danger. Perhaps you brought your nightmare into reality. Relax, IT’S ALRIGHT! ”
“But I clearly received a call. ”
Ji Yunshen frowned. After being silent for more than ten seconds, he said, “but man man, no one called you at all. You’re really too nervous. Relax. Yes, I’m here. ”
His exquisite jawline caressed her hair, mixed with the faint fragrance from his body, but it could not drive away the slightest bit of fatigue and pain from her.
She said, “Ji Yunshen, do you suspect that I have a mental illness like my mother’s? ”
She withdrew from his embrace and rested her Chin on her bent knee. There was not a trace of light in her dark eyes, like a dry well.
“My grandmother is a lunatic, and my mother is a lunatic, so I will also become a lunatic, right? ”
She tilted her head and looked at the mist left on the window pane. It was raining heavily outside, but it was raining in her heart.
The man sighed and rubbed her hair. “It’s very late. What do you want to eat? I’ll go get it. ”
Qiao man had no appetite, especially after being frightened.
Her shaking of her head made the man frown. “Man man, you’re pregnant now. Even if you don’t want to eat, you have to eat more, EH? ”
After hearing that, Qiao man raised her hand and touched her belly. “Ji Yunshen, do you think it’s a boy or a girl? ”
This kind of question was no different from asking him directly whether he liked boys or girls.
How could he not know this little woman’s twisted thoughts? He reached out and touched her hand as if he was thinking for a few seconds. Then, very slowly, he said word by word, “I think it’s… Dragon and Phoenix twins. ”
Qiao man did not get the answer she wanted and pushed him away. “Dream on, do you think that all the good things in the world are yours alone? Dragon and Phoenix twins? Just say that you like boys, I won’t say anything about it. Hypocrite! ”
“When did I say that I like boys? Don’t randomly label me! ” The man’s sexy thin lips moved closer and planted a few kisses on the side of her face and on her neck. “As long as it’s yours, I like both boys and girls! ”
The corners of Qiao Man’s lips curved, and a hint of a smile appeared on her pale face. “That’s more like it. ”
…
After coaxing her for a while, Ji Yunshen got up and went downstairs to prepare dinner.
It was eight o’clock at night, and it was already completely dark.
The strong wind blew, and the branches swayed chaotically, casting a large shadow on the windowpanes.
The room was too quiet. Qiao man laid down for a while, and the fear in her heart grew stronger again. She simply lifted the blanket and got out of bed, going downstairs to look for him.
The smell of porridge in the kitchen filled the air. In the silent night, there was only the sound of porridge boiling and gas burning.
He was standing by the window, making a phone call. From the occasional words he said, it could be heard that the other party was an elder. Qiao man guessed that the person on the phone with him might be his grandmother, Zhou Lanqing.
“Okay, okay, I’ll discuss it with her. Okay. ”
After hanging up the phone, he looked up. In the reflection of the window glass, he saw a small face the size of a palm. There was no makeup on it, making her look as pure as a student who had not graduated yet.
Just one look at her made him feel like he could not stop.
He put down his phone and turned around. “Why aren’t you lying on the bed waiting? ”
“I’ve been lying there for a whole day. I’m tired from lying there. ”
Qiao man sat on the dining chair, looked up at him, and spoke casually. “who were you talking to just now? ”
“Do you want to investigate me? ”
She nodded lazily and replied nonchalantly, “Yes! “.
“then investigate on your own! ”
He handed the phone to her and went to stir the porridge to prevent it from falling off.
Qiao man did not have the habit of looking through people’s phones. Although she was curious about who he was talking to, she would not really do it.
Ji Yunshen scooped out the porridge and placed it on the dining table. He saw his thin black phone lying in front of her, without any traces of movement.
“Aren’t you curious? Why did you stop investigating? ”
“What’s there to investigate? If you had something you wanted to hide from me, you would have deleted it long ago. Even if I did, it would be a waste of time. ”
“So, it’s been hard on you? ”
“Well, it’s good that you know! ”
A faint smile appeared on the man’s Beautiful Lips. He scooped out a bowl of porridge for her, placed it in front of her, and then sat beside her.
“Man man… ”
He called her name and did not say anything else. While she was eating the porridge, she grunted and waited for the next part.
“I want to discuss something with you. ”
“Yes! ” Because of his tone, she raised her eyes and looked at him. “What is it? ”
“GRANDMA wants us to go back and live with her for a while. You know that dad and GRANDPA are often away from home, and mom is very busy. She often stays at home alone. Ever since she came here last time and I told her that you were pregnant, she has been thinking about letting you go back and live with her for a few days. ”
He looked at her through the bright lights, his eyes deep. “I know that you don’t like living with the elderly and are taking care of your body, but grandma has raised me since I was young. I hope that you can like her with me and honor her. ”
After they got married, there were many things that he did quietly, but she knew all of them.
For example, he was looking for a brain specialist, hoping to wake her mother up quickly.
For example, he hired a lot of carers to take turns massaging her mother’s body every day, afraid that she would fall asleep and her muscles would atrophy.
For example, he would make things easier for Qiao. Although she had personally said that she wanted him to destroy Qiao, he knew that her words were not true.
He was kind to her family and silently gave because of her.
In that case, she had no reason to reject his gratitude and filial piety toward her family.
Moreover, she was the grandmother who had raised him personally. Naturally, their relationship was extraordinary.
“Sure! Then go back and live for a while. ”
Ji Yunshen did not expect her to agree so quickly. He was actually stunned for a moment.
Because she was pregnant, he seemed to take special care of her emotions. He basically would not force her to do things that she was not willing to do.
Before asking, he had already prepared himself to be rejected, but her answer had indeed exceeded his expectations.
“Okay! I’ll tell grandma. She’ll be very happy to hear it! ”
…
After finishing the porridge, she went upstairs to take a shower. After she was done, it was already ten o’clock.
Ji Yunshen saw that she had finished the Porridge and went to the study to deal with official business.
After she finished drying her hair and looking at the empty bed, the voice of the man who had dealt with it suddenly rang in her mind.
Perhaps this guilt would follow her for the rest of her life.
She lifted the blanket and lay down. She was extremely tired, but she could not fall asleep. When she closed her eyes, all she could see was the scene of the servant being rescued by someone.
She simply stopped sleeping and used the tablet to brush up on the drama.
Love offensive had already been released. Hearing that the plot and reputation were good, she opened it and began to watch.
Ji Yunshen returned to the bedroom after finishing his business. It was already one in the morning. When he saw that Qiao man was still awake, his handsome straight eyebrows almost immediately furrowed.
“It’s so late, why aren’t you sleeping? ”
“I can’t sleep. ” Qiao man stared at the tablet without blinking and answered lazily.
Ji Yunshen walked over and took the tablet out of her hand. “sleep. ”
Qiao man pursed her cherry lips tightly. She really wanted to say that she did not want him to interfere, but when she met his sharp eyes, she forcefully held back her words.
She lay down and watched as the man took off his clothes. Then, she listened to the sound of his shower and fell asleep very quickly.
…
The next morning, when Qiao man woke up, Ji Yunshen was no longer in bed. She lifted the blanket and got out of bed. Just as she opened the door to the room, she saw Zhang Sao standing outside with breakfast in her hands.
“Man man is awake. I just made breakfast. Hurry up and eat some to replenish your nutrition. ”
Qiao man looked at Zhang Sao and remembered that she did not respond to her call last night.
“Zhang Sao, where did you go last night? I called you for so long, but you ignored me. ”
Zhang Sao was stunned for a moment before replying gently, “the old madam was looking for me. I went back to the JI residence. I left a note on the cabinet by your bed. Didn’t you see it? ”
Qiao man shook her head gently. “I didn’t see it. When I woke up, there was nothing on the cabinet. ”
“Eh, that’s strange. I clearly put it on the cabinet! Could it be that I put it in the wrong place? ”
Zhang Sao looked puzzled and smiled kindly. “Look, I’m getting old and my brain is getting worse and worse. I might have forgotten what happened one second ago. I’m really sorry, man man. ”
“It’s nothing! It’s not a big deal. ”
Qiao man smiled gently and said in a gentle voice, “Zhang Sao, bring the breakfast down. I’ll wash up and eat it after. ”
“okay, I got it. ”
…
Ji Yunshen finished his work for the whole day in the morning. When he returned to the Blue Mountain villa, Qiao man was reading in her room.
Under the dense sunlight, a beautiful silhouette appeared.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, She raised her head. When she saw that it was him, a hint of confusion appeared on her face. “Why are you back so early? ”
“I’m going back to the JI residence. I promised grandma that we would have lunch together. ”
After Qiao man heard this, she replied, “Oh! ” Then she closed her book and prepared to pack her things.
“There’s no need to pack anything. There’s everything there. I’ve already asked Secretary Yang to send it over. We can just go there directly. ”
Qiao man said her goodbyes and followed him out of the villa.
The afternoon sun was very bright and beautiful, completely enveloping his figure, casting a shadow over it. She walked behind him and could almost tell at a glance that he was walking unnaturally.
“What happened to your leg? ”
Ji Yunshen opened the passenger’s door and waited for her to walk in. As he did so, he casually said, “I scraped against another car last night, and my leg bumped against it, it’s nothing! ”
Qiao man knew his personality. He liked to make a big deal out of a small matter, and he liked not to let the people around him worry. However, by doing this, he gave people the illusion that he did not need her at all.
Even if he really did not need her.
She sat in the car and looked at the man standing outside the half-lowered car window. “Have you gone to the doctor? Did you hurt your bones? ”
He reached out and smiled as he scratched her delicate nose. “If you hurt your bones, can you still walk? ”
She did not say anything more. Instead, she watched him start the car as usual. Soon, they drove out of the villa.
When they reached the JI residence, the food was already prepared. They were just waiting for the two of them to start eating.
He held her hand and entered the dining room. The dining table was already filled with people. There were his second uncle, second aunt, cousins, and of course, Ji Han and Gu Xichen, who had just returned from America.
“Why are you taking so long? I was just waiting for the two of YOU TO START EATING! ”
Zhou Lanqing gave a few symbolic reprimands. Seeing the two of them sit down, she signaled for everyone to start eating.
Zhou Lanqing sat on the main seat. When Qiao Man sat over, Zhou Lanqing patted the seat closest to her, signaling for her to sit there.
The seat next to her was reserved for Ji Yunshen, and beside Ji Yunshen Sat Ji Han.
During this time, Zhou Lanqing picked up a lot of food for Qiao Man. There were many dishes that Qiao man did not like to eat. Her brows slowly furrowed. The man next to her seemed to understand and kept helping her with the dishes in her bowl.
When Zhou Lanqing saw this, she smiled and said, “if this continues, the pregnant woman will not gain weight. You will gain weight first. ”
