It was a long distance and she wasn’t sure if the footsteps were heading towards the room upstairs.

She leaned against the door and listened for a while. After making sure that there was no sound outside, she reached out and opened the door a little.

Just as her little head popped out, it was blocked by the tall figure walking towards her from the stairway. Because she was half bent over, the first thing that came into view was the pair of black men’s cotton slippers Then there were the black pants, white shirt, and the chiseled face.

He put one hand in the pocket of the pants and strode steadily. When he walked over, he looked down at the girl with half of her head poking out.

Her seaweed-like hair went over her shoulders, and she returned to the way she was when he first met her. She had a fairy-like air about her, and she was so clean that she did not look like a human.

Because she had a lot of reactions during pregnancy, she could barely eat anything. She was also grounded, so she could only move around in this villa. She would either sit or lie down all day, or play mobile games. She looked much thinner compared to when she was pregnant.

“Did you hear that? Sorry, I left my keys in the military office, and I was in a hurry to discuss something with a few subordinates who came from the capital… ” he paused, and his voice sounded especially charming in the quiet night. “Did I scare you? ”

This man could always be meticulous in every detail.

Just like now, he was afraid that she would feel scared because of those messy footsteps. Even though he was in a hurry to discuss something with a few subordinates from the capital, he did not forget to go upstairs to make sure that she was asleep or awake, afraid or not afraid.

“It’s okay! ”

Qiao man’s exquisite and small facial features were almost devoid of any emotion. The warmth was so faint that it was almost difficult to tell its depth. She stood up straight and pulled the door open completely, completely exposing herself in his sight. The corners of her lips curled up into a thin and polite smile “then… if there’s nothing else, I’ll go to sleep first. Help Yourself. ”

After saying that, she smiled and retreated back, closing the door behind her.

She leaned against the door, listening to the man’s footsteps getting further and further away. The crease of the back of the door slid down bit by bit, until her entire body fell onto the floor.

Outside the window was the sea that was dyed by the dark night as far as the eye could see. There were also various landscape lights and the dim light emitted by the high-pole Street lamps. As she looked, she suddenly remembered what he had said to her on the day that Yan ‘er needed to be bailed out for medical treatment.

He said that the sense of security between a couple or even a husband and wife did not come from love, but from preference. Only when she was sure that she was the exception would she feel safe and secure.

She also admitted that she did rely on herself to be the exception in his heart, so she had always been fearless.

That was why she had come so many times with nothing to fear. It seemed that she would not miss this opportunity.

Thinking of this, she lowered her head slightly and took out a white medicine bottle from the pocket of her pajamas. She slowly closed her fingers and clenched them tightly until they were almost white.

After about ten minutes, she stood up from the floor and shuffled her slippers to the side of the bed to climb up.

The curtains of the floor-to-ceiling window were not drawn. She faced the direction outside the window and watched the scenery slowly enter a deep sleep.

…

Ji Yunshen and a few subordinates who had flown over from the capital overnight had finished discussing the matter. It was already two thirty-four in the morning.

He turned off the main light source on the ceiling, leaving behind only a wall lamp in the corner. The scattered light almost drowned him, merging into the loneliness created by the bustling night scenery outside the window.

The Living Room of the villa returned to its usual silence. He was not in a hurry to go upstairs. His back was deeply embedded in the back of the SOFA. After resting for a while, he opened his eyes, stood up, and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window.

He took out a cigarette case from his trouser pocket and lit one. His pair of deep and sharp eyes looked at the shining moon and stars in the black sky through the lingering green and white smoke.

His handsome facial features and the scarlet dot between his slender fingers looked even more misty on the misty window glass because of the difference in temperature inside and outside.

After smoking a cigarette, he put out the cigarette butt in the transparent ashtray before turning around and walking upstairs.

He had just taken two steps when the phone in his trouser pocket vibrated. He subconsciously looked at the English clock on the wall of the living room. The time displayed on it was already 2:55 am.

It was so late. Who could it be?

His large hand took out the phone from his trouser pocket. When he saw the name displayed on the lit up screen, his originally relaxed brows slowly furrowed.

After two or five seconds, his Adam’s apple moved and he answered the call. “Han ‘er, it’s so late. What’s the matter? ”

Ji Han’s voice was trembling with a broken voice, along with a heavy nasal voice and sobs, as if it was a reaction to extreme shock “Ah-ah… Shen, grandma just slipped down the stairs… she slipped. She… accidentally fell down the stairs… she went down, and the servants in the house… were all given… leave. I. . . I’ve already called… called 112 to call an ambulance. Can you… can you come over? I… I… I’m scared. ”

After the last word was said, the sound of the broken words turned into sobs and even became more intense.

When Ji Yunshen heard Ji Han say that his grandmother had accidentally fallen down the stairs, he froze on the spot. His mind went blank for a few seconds before he turned around and walked toward the entrance of the villa.

His big hand holding the thin phone was so hard that it turned white. He almost blurted out, “isn’t the stairs in the house covered with a non-slip carpet? Why did grandma suddenly fall down? ”

“I… I don’t know either. I was taking a shower in the bathroom just now. The sound of the water was so loud that I didn’t hear anything. ”

Ji Han squatted beside Zhou Lanqing, whose head was bleeding profusely. Opposite her was a floor-to-ceiling window. The light was dim, but the light from the wall lamp in the corner reflected her entire face on the window Although there was no expression on it, it made people feel a little eerie and terrifying.

“I’ll rush over from here. The ambulance has probably arrived at the JI residence. I’ll drive straight to the military hospital now. DESCRIBE GRANDMA’s current condition to me. ”

He took the dark blue windbreaker from the coat rack in the hall and hurried out of the villa.

The night wind passed through the microphone and reached Ji Han’s ears, turning into a slight noise.

Her fingers ran through her dark, seaweed-like hair. Although her voice was nasal and choked with sobs, her eyes were very dry. She didn’t even feel wet at all.

“Grandma’s head is bleeding a lot. It’s all over the floor. Her leg seems to be broken. I’m not sure if there are any other injuries. ”

The night wind was very strong at two or three o’clock in the morning. It hit the man’s strong legs and it was a knife-like pain.

However, he did not even frown. He tried his best to keep his voice steady as he said, “Han ‘er, listen to me. You have to calm down now. ”

“okay, go ahead, Shen. ”

“Grandma’s head is bleeding. You must not move it at will. Don’t carry her or touch her, lest you cause secondary damage to her body. Then, go to the storage room on the second floor and take out the small oxygen tank. Give Grandma oxygen and give her another artificial breath every two minutes. Do you hear me? ”

Ji Yunshen was already sitting in the smoke-gray Bentley. When he heard that there was no response from the other side, he asked again, “Han ‘er, can you hear me? Can you still hear me? ”

“I can hear you, Shen. I… I’ll go get the oxygen tank now. Don’t hang up the phone. I’m… scared. ”

“Okay! ”

Ji Han put down her phone and followed Ji Yunshen’s instructions. She ran to the storage room on the second floor, took out a small oxygen tank, and started to give Zhou Lanqing Oxygen. Then, she started to perform artificial breathing every two minutes.

The pair of deep black beautiful eyes, in again and again for her oxygen, artificial breathing, completely scarlet up.

I don’t know if it’s too sad or too… … resentment . .

…

When Ji Yunshen’s smoke-gray Bentley arrived at the first military hospital, it was already twenty minutes later.

He and Ji Han’s call has not ended, until Zhou Lanqing was sent to the emergency room on the fifth floor.

The car parked steadily in front of the hospital parking lot, just opened the door to get out, with a pair of long strong legs, ran into the hospital, and then across the hall, all the way to the elevator.

Just as he ran over, there was a ladder that was going to go up from the first floor. He darted in a few steps and in the next second, the elevator door slowly closed.

After the elevator door closed, he looked at the changes in the number keys on the floor. When the number five was displayed, he froze in place for a few seconds. It could even be said that he could not move.

What was waiting for him might be good or bad.

He closed his eyes and sorted out his emotions for a few seconds before he strode out.

Ji Han was wearing a white cashmere skirt that reached up to her ankles. Inside was a pair of black tights. On the outside was a beige striped windbreaker. On her feet were high heels that looked like princess shoes.

Hearing steady footsteps, she slowly looked up. When she saw the familiar tall figure, she almost ran over from the chair.

Ji Yunshen did not expect her to suddenly rush over. He was knocked back a few steps by her without being prepared. Her soft, boneless arms wrapped around his skinny waist, and her delicate, white side face was tightly pressed against his strong chest He could even feel the temperature of the skin under the thin shirt and the beating of his heart.

“Ah Shen, it’s all my fault. How could it take me so long to realize that grandma fell down the stairs? It’s all my fault. IF ANYTHING HAPPENS TO GRANDMA… I won’t live anymore! ”

Ji Han’s tears seemed to have burst out of her eyes. One drop after another fell from her eyes. Not to mention men, even women would feel heartache at the sight of such a beautiful face.

Ji Yunshen’s already worried face was instantly covered with a layer of regret because of Ji Han’s words.

His grandmother had raised him since he was young. No matter how extreme her actions were or how she did not care about his feelings, she was his grandmother. This relationship would never change because of anyone.

Ji Yunshen reached out and patted Ji Han’s thin shoulders. His clean voice seemed to have unlimited penetrating power in the corridor. “It’s none of your business. Don’t blame yourself too much. ”

Ji Han tightened her arms around his waist, as if she was seeking comfort “Ah Shen… … I’m really scared. My grandmother raised me since I was young, but I have never shown any filial piety. If I had known this would happen, she would have told me to agree to Lu Yubai’s business marriage instead of quarreling with her and making her sad and sad . . . .”

The rest of her words, she could not say, all drowned in the growing sound of crying.

“It’s none of your business. You have the right to choose your own happiness. No one will blame you, Huh? ”

“But I. . . I blame myself… ”

Ji Han’s tears wetted the white shirt in front of the man’s chest. His brows gradually furrowed as he looked down at the girl nestled in his arms “Haner, I know you respect grandma and love her very much, but this matter has nothing to do with you. Calm Down, okay? ”

Ji Han snuggled in front of his chest and listened to his comforting words for a while before she returned to her usual appearance and slowly withdrew from his embrace. “I’m sorry. I was too emotional just now and dirtied your shirt. ”

The shirt in front of the man’s chest not only had the tear stains left by the woman, but there were also a few clear and indistinct lip prints.

Ji Yunshen lowered his head and glanced at it, then shook his head. “It’s okay. It’s just a piece of clothing. ”

Seeing that her emotions had returned to normal, Ji Yunshen took out his phone from his trouser pocket and dialed a number.

There were about three beeps before the person on the other end picked up. “CEO JI. ”

Ji Yunshen acknowledged. “Secretary Sun, I’m sorry to call you so early. I have something that I want you to investigate at the JI residence. ”

Secretary Sun Woke up from his deep sleep. His voice still carried a hint of sleepiness and laziness. When he heard the words “JI residence, ” his body stiffened slightly and he suddenly came to his senses. “What do you want to investigate? ”

“check the surveillance footage. My grandmother just fell down the stairs and is now in the emergency room for resuscitation. I want to know why she fell and fell down the stairs. ”

“Okay, President Ji. I’ll go check now. ”

“thank you for your hard work, Secretary Sun. ”

“It’s not hard, it’s not hard at all. Then, President Ji, I’ll hang up first. ”

After the phone call was cut off, he walked to the long row of seats and sat next to Ji Han.

She curled up in the chair, tears streaming down her face.

Ji Yunshen’s elbows were propped up on his legs, and he was half-hunched. He looked at the shadow cast on the marble floor by the light above his head and seemed to be lost in thought.

The overly quiet environment and air seemed to last longer and longer.

Every minute and second felt like a year.

This feeling lasted for a few hours. The door of the emergency room was opened by the doctor. The attending doctor who walked out took off his mask and smiled at Ji Yunshen and Ji Han “congratulations to the two of you. Old Madam Ji’s surgery was very successful. Once the anesthetic is over, she will wake up very soon. This is all thanks to miss JI calling an ambulance in time and performing emergency treatment. Otherwise, if it was a few minutes later, old madam JI would have very likely died of brain death. ”
