The entrance of the women’s restroom was already a little crowded. The tall figure of the man stood there, making the already cramped space even narrower.
Qiao man tried to walk past him a few times, but he blocked her way without leaving a trace.
She simply leaned against the door frame and stood there. Her beautiful figure carried a hint of laziness and playfulness. “Mr. Ji, don’t tell me that you came to the Rose Coast at three in the morning just to find trouble with me? or… ”
“Do you think it’s a pity that I’m not dead? ”
Ji Yunshen’s hand that was holding the cigarette paused, as if he wanted to catch something from her words. “What do you mean? Speak clearly. ”
Qiao man smiled and raised the wristwatch on her left hand, waving it in front of his eyes. “Mr. Ji, I’ve just returned to China and I’m still jet-lagged. I really can’t continue chatting with you. I’m sorry. ”
As she said that, she put away the Laziness and laziness on her face. She turned her body and tried to walk past him again, but he grabbed her wrist and pulled her back with a little strength.
Qiao man was wearing stilettos. The heels of her shoes could easily be entangled with the high-class carpet on the ground. Because of his sudden movement, her heels tilted to the side, and a piercing pain instantly came from her ankle.
“Well, you can leave if you want to. ”
Ji Yunshen took another deep breath of the cigarette in his hand, then he looked up and spat it out. “But you have to beg me. ”
“Ji Yunshen, what do you mean? ”
“just the literal meaning. ”
The man’s deep eyes stared at her without blinking. There was no emotion on his exquisite facial features, but there was a unique depth that made people unable to help but feel depressed.
Qiao man obviously knew that Lin city, and even this country, was not Meng Dongxing’s home ground. If five years ago, this man was only the top tycoon in Lin city, then now, he could be said to be able to control the sky with one hand.. And she really did not have the need to offend him over such a small matter.
Her beautiful brows slightly furrowed. After taking a deep breath, a gentle smile still hung on her face, and her voice returned to a tender and soft fawning tone. She completely compromised and said, “please move aside, Mr. Ji. ”
“please use a more flattering tone. ”
Qiao Man,”…”
“please… Please move aside, Mr. Ji. ”
“please use a more flattering tone. ”
Qiao man reached out her hand to tidy up her hair that had fallen off her shoulders. Her smile was faint, but it was gentle and polite. “Then, could you please tell me, Mr. Ji, what kind of tone can show my flattering and flattering tone? ”
Ji Yunshen did not say anything else. His dark eyes continued to stare at her, as if he wanted to see something from her face, but he did not see anything.
“Do you still need me to teach you this? ” Ji Yunshen lowered his head. His short hair formed a large shadow on his forehead. He flicked the half-smoked cigarette in his hand into the trash can at the side “just use your usual methods to seduce men. After all, I’m also a man who likes women. ”
Qiao man took a deep breath again. She probably felt that he would continue to make things difficult for her.
“Mr. Ji, I thought that the grudges between US had been written off five years ago. ”
“Do I look that easy to get rid of? ”
Ji Yunshen took a step forward and caressed her cheek gently with his big hand. Of course, it was more like a caress than a caress “Let’s not talk about the huge sum of money that you took from Mingyuan Group. Just saying that you injected your grandmother with Glucocorticoids and caused her death is enough for me to throw you into prison and spend the rest of your life in prison. ”
Qiao man did not hide. Instead, she stood on her tiptoes and moved closer to him. When she was about a few centimeters away, she stopped and started breathing.
“Mr. Ji, you could have said these things five years ago. Why did you wait until today to say them? ”
Qiao man felt the large hand on her lower jaw tighten a little. The pain made her beautiful brows furrow even tighter. “Do you think this is interesting? ”
The day she gave birth to Tian Tian five years ago was also the day Zhou Lanqing passed away.
In the following month, she followed the tradition of giving birth in the hospital. Ji Yunshen was very busy during that time. Now that she thought about it, he was probably busy running around for her matters, balancing the family, and using the military and political forces to balance Ji Donghe.
The man’s posture got closer. Qiao man had no choice but to continue moving backward until her slender back was pressed against the wall behind her. Only then did she have no way to retreat.
His tall figure surrounded her, almost blocking all the light above her head. All she could see was the thick anger between his brows.
His voice was very low and slow, but there was a thick accusation in it. He said word by word, “Qiao man, tell me, since you wanted to use death to deceive me, why did you come back? ”
She thought, if it wasn’t for this position being too ambiguous and too possessive, or else, she even thought that he would strangle her to death in anger.
“Yes, that’s a good question. ”
Qiao man looked at the tall man standing in the shadow of the backlight. His deep black eyes were like talking stars “So, Mr. Ji can pretend that I didn’t appear, or even pretend that I’m already dead? After all, I’ve changed my name, changed my surname, recognized my godfather, and have a husband and daughter… ”
“Shut up. ”
The man suddenly tightened his grip on her chin. The pain caused the woman to frown, and her small face scrunched up into a ball “Oh, Mr. Ji Probably doesn’t know about this yet. Then, let me explain in detail. Four years ago, I registered my marriage with Meng Dongxing overseas and had a daughter… ”
“I f * Cking told you to shut up. Are you deaf? ”
Qiao man felt that this man was about to crush her jaw. Even her voice was trembling after the pain. “Okay, I won’t say anymore. Mr. Ji, can you let go of me now? ”
The man’s eyebrows moved a few times before he finally let go of his grip on her.
Because of his actions just now, his suit shirt, which had become slightly messy, was slowly smoothed down by his big hand. His movements carried the elegance and laziness unique to someone of his age, as well as his carelessness.
Qiao man covered the area around her chin. Her skin was originally white, so it should already be red and swollen.
She tidied up her long hair, which was a little messy because of his rough actions just now. Then, she tidied up her nude pink dress and looked at the decorative mirror opposite her. After making sure that there was nothing wrong, she smiled at the man beside her It was the kind of distant yet elegant smile. “Thank you, Mr. Ji, for your help. I won’t disturb you any further. ”
After Qiao man finished speaking, she left the ladies’washroom in her ten-centimeter high heels.
The man looked at the woman’s figure gradually walking away through the mirror in front of him. His deep eyes seemed to be dyed with a scarlet flame of anger.
The sound of the high heels stepping on the carpet gradually disappeared. He retracted his gaze, which had lost its focus, and looked at himself in the mirror.
After a long while, the corner of his lips curled into a mocking smile. It was not big, but it was enough to make one’s heart skip a beat.
He looked at it for a long time, until the reflection of the mirror outside the floor-to-ceiling window showed the light of dawn. Only then did he walk out of his daze. He reached into his pocket for his phone and dialed a number.
After a few beeps, Fu Qingshan’s sleepy and hoarse voice came from the other side.
Obviously, he was sleeping soundly, but he was woken up by the phone call he made. Therefore, in addition to the lazy sleepiness in his voice, there was also a hint of gloominess in his wake-up voice. “old JI, it’s only past four in the morning. I’m not a machine, I need to sleep. ”
“Have you checked? Why did Qiao man suddenly appear in such a high-profile manner? And why did she suddenly choose to come back? ”
Ji Yunshen moved his feet and walked out of the female washroom. Then, he walked towards the French window at the end of the corridor. “Isn’t Lin Yan still two weeks away from being released from prison? There must be another reason for her to appear at this time. ”
Fu Qingshan brushed his messy hair, and his tone was as gentle as usual. It was like the gurgling water of a stream, with a long, quiet, and quiet flow.
“Her daughter’s health is not good. It’s similar to a disease related to leukocytosis. To put it bluntly, she needs a bone marrow transplant. ”
Ji Yunshen’s deep brows moved slightly. His hands that were not holding onto the phone went into his trouser pocket. His long legs separated a little and reflected on the glass window. He stood straight and elegantly.
“Why did you come back for a bone marrow transplant? ”
Foreign Medicine was more mature and developed compared to domestic medicine.
Besides, as parents, shouldn’t they be the ones who were most compatible with a bone marrow transplant If it was just to find a bone marrow match for the child, it could be carried out in secret like in the past few years, without alerting anyone.
“I found this… ” Fu Qingshan took a deep breath, as if he couldn’t figure it out. “I need some more time. ”
Tian Tian didn’t come back for Lin Yan, Gu Dongfeng, or Tian Tian.
Or, if he delved deeper, he would find out what she had experienced in the past few years abroad.
Only by knowing what she had experienced could he find out the reason for her sudden return, why she had registered for marriage with Meng Dongxing, and… … Another sick daughter …
“okay, I got it. Call me if you need anything. ”
He had been looking for her for so long and had used many methods, both in the open and in the dark, but he had not forced her out.
And now, she had appeared in such a high-profile manner because of some unknown reason. It was really a heavy slap to him.
He shook his head and chuckled twice before dialing another number.
This time, the other party picked up very quickly. Almost at the instant the call was connected, the other party’s voice was heard.
“Secretary Sun, spread the word. In the future, as long as it’s Meng Dongxing’s business, no matter what methods and methods you use, you must pry it over for me. Within three days, I want him to have no business to do in forest city. ”
Secretary Sun had just finished an overnight high-level meeting. After hearing Ji Yunshen’s words, his face became solemn “President Ji, Meng Dongxing’s business in the country is closely related to the black and white factions. Ming Yuan has always kept our distance from that kind of business. If we insist on doing this, I’m afraid we will kill a thousand enemies and lose eight hundred of our own. ”
Secretary Sun’s words had already expressed his very clear meaning. If they did this, both sides would suffer heavy losses.
“Yes, I know this. Just do as I say. ”
Secretary Sun had already done his duty to remind him. After receiving the same answer, he did not continue to hesitate. Instead, he said that he knew and that he would do it as soon as possible. Then, he cut off the cell phone communication.
The watch needle on the man’s left wrist had already pointed to 4:45 a.m. in the morning. The Dawn of the east had already scattered across the entire horizon, illuminating this prosperous metropolis made of steel and cement.
Since she was back, no matter what the reason was, he would never let her go again.
Even if he died.
…
After Qiao man returned to the private room, she found an excuse and quickly took her handbag and left the rose coast.
The taxi in front of the door lined up in a row. She casually opened the back door of a taxi and sat in it, giving the address.
The car had just started when the phone in her handbag vibrated.
Qiao man took out her phone from her handbag and glanced at the caller ID before reaching out to answer the call. “At this time, it should be late at night at your place. Why are you calling me? ”
Meng Dongxing stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the villa’s study room. He held a glass of red wine in his hand and would sip it from time to time. “You’re my wife. Do I need you to be so distant when I call you? ”
“sorry, I’m used to it. ”
Qiao man did not say anything else. Instead, she waited for Meng Dongxing to speak first.
“I still need to deal with the matter at hand for a few more days before I can fly back. Can you stay there by yourself? ”
Qiao man turned her head to look at the bustling street scene that was rapidly sliding by outside the window and nodded. “I’m fine. ”
“okay, that’s good. Take good care of Xin Qiao. I’ll fly over as soon as possible to accompany you. ”
“Okay! ”
After hanging up the phone, Qiao man tilted her head and leaned against the car window.
At this time, there weren’t many cars on the road. The rays of the morning sun danced between the tall buildings, occasionally passing through the gaps and landing directly on the window, making her pretty little face look even more exquisite It was as if she had walked out of a Manga.
…
When she returned to the Blue Lake Bay Villa, the first thing she did was run to the children’s room to see Xin Qiao.
Xin Qiao was fast asleep. One of her hands was holding the little yellow duck doll, while the other was stretched out of the blanket. Her sleeping posture was elegant beyond her age. It could be seen that she had received a good education from her parents, as well as the nobility in her blood and bones.
Qiao man reached out and caressed Xin Qiao’s face a few times, then lowered her head and kissed her on the forehead. Only then did she leave the children’s room and return to her own room.
After a night of not sleeping, coupled with the fact that she was slightly drunk, her head hurt even more.
After walking to the bedside, she directly threw herself onto the bed. Without removing her makeup or showering, she closed her eyes and fell asleep very quickly.
When she woke up again, she was woken up by the servants who had woken up early.
In order to take care of Xin Qiao, Qiao man hired two servants. One was responsible for Xin Qiao’s food and living, while the other was responsible for cleaning up the villa and her food and living.
She had thought that the headache symptoms would be relieved after a good night’s sleep, but she did not expect that after a good night’s sleep, she would feel even more dizzy.
Rubbing her head, she opened the door and saw auntie sun standing outside. “I don’t want to eat breakfast anymore. Tell Auntie he to take care of Xin Qiao. ”
“Madam, do you have a headache after being drunk? Do you need me to make you a cup of tea to sober you up? ”
Auntie Sun was very good at reading people’s expressions. She could see Qiao Man’s discomfort at a glance.
“Then I’ll have to trouble you to make me a cup. My head really hurts too much. Thank you. ”
“No need, no need, madam. This is what I’m supposed to do. What do you mean by saying thank you! ”
After Auntie Sun finished speaking, she turned around and walked downstairs. She did things as quickly and efficiently as she always did. She did not procrastinate at all.
Seeing Auntie sun leave, Qiao man closed the door and walked back to the bed. She threw herself on the bed and continued to sleep.
In her daze, she seemed to see a figure drifting past. She really wanted to turn around to look, but she could not move.
She had fallen into this kind of nightmare again. Over the past few years, she had often fallen into this kind of nightmare. The people in the dream were in a mess, and it was always that afternoon when the flames in Syria soared to the sky.
“Madam, madam… ”
She had to drink the hangover soup while it was still hot. Once it was cold, it would not have such a big effect. Auntie Sun called out a few times, but Qiao man did not respond. She could not help but raise her voice, “Madam, Madam… ”
Qiao man used almost all her strength to break through this nightmare. She slowly opened her eyes and looked at Auntie Sun, who was standing by the window, frowning.
“You’re awake? I’ve already cooked the sobering soup. Drink it while it’s hot, and your head won’t hurt so much. ”
Auntie Sun’s voice was very gentle. It was as if she had miraculously pulled herself out of the nightmare that she did not want to experience again in her life, and even recalled it. It was a great comfort.
Qiao man sat up and took the bowl from Auntie Sun’s hands. She thanked her and put the edge of the bowl close to her lips, then frowned and drank it.
Auntie Sun not only brought the hangover soup, but also a simple breakfast. After she took the empty bowl from Qiao man’s hands, she pointed to the plate at the side “Madam, I’ve prepared a simple breakfast for you. Even if you don’t have an appetite, you should at least eat a little. Otherwise, if you don’t eat breakfast, it would be too harmful to your body. ”
Qiao man glanced at the breakfast that Auntie Sun had prepared. It was a bowl of plain porridge with fried eggs and mixed vegetables.
“Okay, put it there. I want to eat it when I wake up. ”
She had no appetite at the moment. She only felt a burning sensation inside.
It had been a long time since she had experienced this kind of intoxication. The last time she experienced it was when she was beside Ji Yunshen.
She shook her head and let her mind go blank. Then, she slowly lay down again.
Today was a sunny day. The bright and beautiful sunlight shone through the French windows. Large patches of sunlight fell in. Perhaps the sunlight was too dazzling, but she actually felt that it was somewhat unreal.
Probably in that nightmare, she had never thought that she would be able to see such bright and beautiful rays of the sun again one day.
…
Three days later, in Lin city.
Qiao man had been very busy these few days. Not only did she have to contact the hospital, but she also had to worry about doing a bone marrow match for Xin Qiao. She only slept for about five hours a day, and she spent the rest of the day on the run.
After waking up early, she pulled open the floor-to-ceiling curtains that blocked the window and stretched. After looking at the garden scenery outside the window for a while, she turned around and went to the bathroom to wash up.
Xin Qiao woke up very early today. After Waking Up, she carried the doll and went to the room next door to look for Qiao Man.
Coincidentally, Qiao man had just finished washing up. The moment she pushed open the bathroom door, she saw Xin Qiao who had just walked in from the door.
“mummy, good morning. ”
The moment Xin Qiao saw her, she stretched out her arms for her to hug.
Qiao man squatted down and hugged her in her arms. “Good morning to Xin Qiao too. Did you sleep well last night? ”
Xin Qiao nodded. “I slept very well, mummy. ”
“Yes, you’re so obedient. Go and sit on the bed for a while. Mommy will put on some simple makeup and then take you to see an Auntie. ”
Xin Qiao obediently left Qiao Man’s arms and ran to the bedside. She then quickly climbed onto the bed.
“Auntie, which Auntie? ”
Qiao man glanced at Xin Qiao’s black and white eyes. “Yes, how should I put it? She’s Mommy’s best friend. Although we haven’t talked for a long time, she’s still the most important person in Mommy’s life. ”
Xin Qiao did not understand these profound words. She just nodded and was inexplicably excited. “Oh, oh, that’s great. Mummy is finally taking me out. ”
The happiness of a child was that simple. It was only because of her few words.
Qiao man was amused by Xin Qiao and Qiao Mengmeng’s reaction. She smiled and then walked to the dressing table without further delay and started to put on her makeup.
…
An hour later, she and Xin Qiao got into the car. The driver drove all the way north and finally stopped in front of the prison in the suburbs.
How long had it been since she and Lin Yan last met? Now that she thought about it, it seemed like it was something that happened in her past life. Even the memories that were once engraved in her heart had faded and become hazy with the passage of time.
After Qiao man walked in with Xin Qiao, the Little Fella was very curious. He looked around and asked, “mummy, why did we come here? Did someone make a mistake? ”
“HMM… It’s not considered a mistake. We just took the wrong path. ”
Xin Qiao replied with an ‘Oh’ . She seemed to understand, but she did not seem to understand at all.
After the prison guard at the door led her and Xin Qiao to Lin Yan’s meeting room, she walked out.
Through the thick layer of glass, Lin Yan looked at Xin Qiao opposite her. For a moment, it seemed as if she would not move at all.
Tears seemed to be flowing out from the bottom of her eyes, but she restrained herself and did not make any sound.
“Come, Xin Qiao, call me Auntie. ”
Qiao man picked up Xin Qiao, who was next to her, and completely exposed her face to Lin Yan’s sight
After hearing this, Xin Qiao obediently called out, “Auntie… ”
Lin Yan reached out to wipe her tears. “Hey… ”
“Why are you so beautiful? Xin Qiao. ”
Lin Yan smiled and said to her, and reached her hand out to the window. “What do you like to eat? I’ll make it for you when I get out of here, okay? ”
Xin Qiao nodded. “Okay, Auntie. ”
Through the transparent window, Qiao man looked at Lin Yan, who was constantly wiping her tears. “Yan ‘er, don’t cry. The child will think too much. ”
Xin Qiao was a very sensitive child. Perhaps it was because she was a girl, so she was very meticulous and liked to think deeply about everything.
“Okay, I won’t cry. I want to talk to Xin Qiao. ”
Lin Yan sniffled. “Xin Qiao, how old are you? ”
“I’m four. ”
Xin Qiao counted her fingers as if to confirm. She actually raised them between the two of them. “Four. ”
“Mm, then what do you usually like to eat? ”
“I like to eat everything. I’m not picky. Mom told me that picky children are not good children. ”
Xin Qiao’s words were transmitted through the window. She did not know whether she should feel lucky or show other expressions.
“mm, mom is right. ”
