“Or to be more precise, they have already taken loving you as their habit and belief. As long as you love me and are willing to pamper me, it will be the biggest harm to them. Since this can make them sad, why should I be sad? ”
Ji Yunshen did not move or respond to her. Instead, he looked at the woman who was only a few centimeters away from his face through the warm orange light source in the corner.
After a few seconds or more, he put one arm around her waist and put her close to his chest. “will using me make you very happy? ”
“Yes, using you to hurt them will make me very happy. ”
After saying that, Qiao man stood on her tiptoes and kissed his thin lips gently. “It’s too late tonight. I’m very sleepy. I’ll go to bed after taking a hot shower. You should rest early too. ”
After saying that, Qiao Man let go of the soft arms hanging around the man’s neck and walked towards the door of the study.
Ji Yunshen stood where he was and watched the woman’s petite figure gradually disappear from his sight. The smile on his lips could not help but widen.
…
The next morning, the sun was still shining brightly.
Tian Tian had told her a long time ago that the kindergarten she was in was going to hold a charity gala today. It was mainly a charity gala for the children of the orphanage who had rushed over from the mountains by bus for a long time He hoped that by donating to them, they would also feel the blessings of the children from other normal families. Of course, more importantly, he hoped that they would dispel their inferiority complex from the bottom of their hearts and truly blend into the healthy and happy atmosphere of growing up.
Qiao man woke up very early and helped Tian Tian get dressed. She prepared the clothes for her performance today, the Fruit Bento during lunch break, and the gifts she wanted to give to the children from the orphanage.
Tian Tian finished washing up in the bathroom and returned to her room. When she saw Qiao Man’s busy figure, she trotted over and stretched out a pair of short and fat arms, wrapping them around Qiao Man’s neck “Mommy, Tian Tian has a rehearsal in the morning. Are you and daddy really unable to go? ”
Tian Tian rarely participated in such entertainment gatherings because of her health. However, this time, she was only performing the Piano Solo. It did not involve any exciting programs that would harm her body, so she and Ji Yunshen did not restrict her from participating And she was especially happy because of this rare opportunity.
Of course, when she heard that they had to go to the airport to pick someone up in the morning and could not go to the kindergarten to watch her rehearsals, she was also particularly sad.
“Yes, I’m sorry Tian Tian. Because mom and dad’s very important friends are coming back from abroad, mom and dad have to go to the airport to pick them up before they can rush to the kindergarten to watch your performance. ”
At two o’clock in the afternoon, the kindergarten’s charity event officially began. Tian Tian was the fifth performer. Relatively speaking, the performance time was later. They could first go to the airport to pick up Meng Dongxing and Wen Cheng, and then go to the hospital to see Tong Qin together Then, they would rush back to see Tian Tian’s performance. All the schedules were just in time.
Then, there was the matter of Tong Qin being Huang Yao.
The former was just her old friend for many years, Meng Dongxing’s sister.
But the latter was Tian Tian’s kindergarten teacher. She had had such a serious traffic accident, so it was definitely impossible for her to appear at the charity gala today She still did not know how to explain to Tian Tian why her beloved teacher Huang would suddenly have a car accident. She also did not know how to explain that the person who caused her favorite teacher Huang to stay in the hospital bed was her aunt.
She really did not want a five-year-old child to touch such complicated and twisted emotional matters. That would be too cruel.
Tian Tian lowered her head and let go of Qiao Man’s short and fat arms that were hanging around her neck. She twisted them together in disappointment and said, “alright then. ”
Qiao man also lowered her head and reached out to stroke Tian Tian’s cheeks and hair. “Tian Tian, I promise you that I will rush over immediately after daddy and Mommy’s matters are over. I won’t Miss Your performance, alright? ”
In the past two years, Tian Tian’s kindergarten had organized such charity events or parent-child events. The only person who accompanied her was her Daddi, while the other children were accompanied by her DADDI and mummy.
Every time, she would hold on to her DADDI’s hand and stand behind all the children. This way, everyone would not see that she only had Daddi but not mummy.
Of course, other than this, it was also because standing at the back could hide the envy in her eyes and not be seen by others.
And today, the scenes that Tian Tian had imagined countless times in her mind — Daddi and Daddi accompanying her to attend such charity events and parent-child events — were finally about to become reality. Other than excitement, she felt even more incredulous It was as if she had never woken up from those dreams she had during the night.
She reached out and rubbed her eyes. After repeatedly making sure that this was not a dream, she raised her head and kissed Qiao Man on the side of her face “Mom, it’s great that you’re back. DADDI and I aren’t alone anymore. I like you so much. You must never leave me and Daddi, because Daddi and I love you very much! ”
Tian Tian was dressed like a princess. She stood in the bright light and her eyes were like sparkling stars. She looked straight at Qiao man as if she had suddenly expelled all the darkness in the world into the sunlight. There were no more impurities in her eyes.
“Mommy, why didn’t you answer Tian Tian? ”
Tian Tian waited for a few seconds. Seeing that Qiao man had yet to answer, she took advantage of the situation and snuggled into Qiao man’s embrace. “Mommy, you must remember that daddy and I love you very much. ”
“Okay, Mommy knows. Thank you, Tian Tian. ”
Qiao man reached out and hugged Tian Tian. The ice in her heart melted into a gurgling stream. “Thank you, Tian Tian, for liking me so much. ”
Ji Yunshen waited for Qiao man in the dining room for quite a while, but he did not see her come down. He had just walked upstairs with his long legs and wanted to remind her to go downstairs for breakfast, but he saw the warm scene of her and Tian Tian hugging each other.
He walked lightly and leaned lazily against the door frame, looking at the two most important women in his life.
Perhaps it was because his gaze was too hot, or the sunlight shining in through the window was too dazzling, but when she turned her head, she saw JI yunshen standing at the door against the light.
Their gazes converged in mid-air. He walked over with his long legs and easily carried Tian Tian. He wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her up from her half-squatting position. “Let’s go down and eat breakfast. ”
“No, you guys go down and eat first. I haven’t finished packing Tian Tian’s things… ”
Qiao man wanted to refute, but before she could finish, she was interrupted by the man’s low and hoarse voice. “after breakfast, I’ll clean up with you. Now, let’s go down and have breakfast together as a family of three. ”
With that, he brought her out of the room. His iron-like and warm arms were placed across her waist. It was an ambiguous and rough feeling. She did not struggle anymore. Instead, she followed the strength of his arms and walked out. The sunlight poured down behind the three of them It was like shining gold, so dazzling and beautiful.
…
After breakfast, Qiao man and Ji Yunshen helped Tian Tian pack up the things that she needed today. They ate the fruit Bento, changed the water bottle for new water, and also many little dolls that she had to hug to sleep when she usually took a nap.
When everything was ready, it was 8:30 in the morning.
Secretary Sun had already driven the car and waited outside the door. Tian Tian walked between Qiao man and Ji Yunshen. She held Qiao Man’s right hand with her left hand and Ji Yunshen’s left hand with her right hand. The family of three welcomed the bright and beautiful morning sun Step by step, they approached the car in front of the parking lot. Secretary Sun, who was waiting by the car, only took a glance and felt that he could not shift his gaze away.
It was probably because it was really rare to see such a perfect thing in life, especially by his side, so every time he saw it, he could not help but take a few more glances.
As soon as the three of them approached, Secretary Sun respectfully opened the door of the backseat. When he walked to the car, Ji Yunshen bent down and picked Tian Tian Up. He put her on the backseat and then placed the things he had prepared for her beside her.
Tian Tian carried the Yellow Duck’s schoolbag on her back and held the yellow duck doll in her hands. Her short legs were dangling in the air on the seat. When Ji Yunshen placed the things he had prepared for her not far from her feet, she turned her head Looking at Daddi, who was standing by the door and bending down to look inside, she smiled and waved her hand. “DADDI, Daddi, I’ll see you in the afternoon. ”
“See you in the afternoon! ”
Standing Beside Ji Yunshen, Qiao man also waved at Tian Tian. “See you in the afternoon! ”
After the three of them said their goodbyes, Ji Yunshen took a few steps back with Qiao man in his arms. Secretary Sun respectfully closed the back door and quickly walked to the driver’s seat. He opened the car door and sat in it. Then, he started the car After nodding to Qiao man and JI yunshen in the rearview mirror, he stepped on the accelerator and quickly drove out of the courtyard of the Green Dragon Lake apartment.
Qiao man only slowly withdrew her gaze when the shadow of the car disappeared from her sight. However, she just happened to meet the deep gaze in the air. She hurriedly reached out to tidy up the long black hair that had been blown to her cheeks by the spring breeze She was trying to cover up her current embarrassment and reluctance to part with him.
“Did you sleep well last night? ”
Last night, when he and Qiao Man were listening to the recording in the study, Qiao man had left first. However, he did not chase after her nor did he return to his room to sleep with her.
He was very clear that she needed time to digest these things. Moreover, he was even clearer that she would not like him to appear. At least, she would be very disgusted with him appearing in her room or on that king-sized bed last night.
Qiao man nodded slightly. Her exquisite face was filled with a faint smile. Her voice sounded very warm in the spring breeze. “very good! ”
Ji Yunshen’s deep eyes fell on her face, as if he was trying to determine whether she was lying or not. After staring at each other for a few seconds, Qiao man averted her gaze first. “Let’s go back and get ready. It’s time for us to go to the airport. ”
After Qiao man finished speaking with a smile, she walked towards the entrance of the apartment without turning her head back. Qiao man followed closely behind and turned around. Her pair of strong and long legs walked steadily behind her, neither too far nor too close, so that even if she did not have to face him.. She could still feel his presence.
…
The two of them returned to the apartment and briefly tidied up before driving away from the Green Dragon Lake apartment.
The Magnolia trees on both sides of the road were lush and verdant. As the spring breeze blew gently, Qiao man casually turned on the radio to listen to music. Then, she leaned against the car window and looked at the scenery that was constantly retreating outside.
Although she acted as if everything was calm and collected, only she herself knew that deep in her heart, she had a deep resentment towards Tong Qin and Ji Han, as well as an unspeakable hatred.
Her mind quickly flashed through the details of her five years abroad. Every scene was like a slow-motion replay of a movie, clear and profound.
The car soon arrived at the second ring highway. It was the weekend, and although the number of tickets was limited, the traffic flow was much higher than usual. Therefore, after arriving at the second ring highway, there was a bit of traffic jam. The normal half-hour journey.. Was forcibly extended to an hour by the traffic jam on the highway.
So much so that when she and Ji Yunshen rushed to the Lincheng International Airport, Meng Dongxing had already walked out of the airport hall holding one hand.
When they met Wen Cheng in the United States, she was mostly like a child. Her face would always have a calm and gentle smile. It was very simple to be happy, and it was also very simple to hate and be sad. On her face, there would never be the dust of the secular world And she would never be able to see the embarrassment and filth of this world.
When they met again this time, she still had a calm and gentle smile on her face. Her eyes were like the stars after the rain. Sometimes, they were so dazzling that it made people feel ashamed of themselves.
But if there was anything that was different about her, it was probably the maturity and elegance that came after experiencing the ups and downs of life.
In the past, Wen Cheng was more like a child, crying, crying, and laughing. However, the current Wen Cheng was more like a rainbow after a storm, dazzling and calm.
When she walked over, almost at the same time as Qiao Man, her eyes turned red. Then, she could not help but hug each other.
“Are you really fully recovered? ”
Wen Cheng nodded, and warm liquid slowly gathered in her eyes. “I’ve heard from Ah Xing that you’ve suffered for the past few years for me! ”
“It’s okay, as long as you’re well, I’M WILLING TO DO ANYTHING! ”
Xin Qiao had not seen Qiao man for a long time. Almost as soon as she and Wen Cheng hugged each other, she walked over, hugged her thigh, and called out to her mother in a low voice!
During the one month they had been apart, Xin Qiao had been very obedient by Meng Dongxing’s side. She did not make a big fuss, nor did she quarrel with Meng Dongxing. Every day, she would ask him when he would be able to see his mother.
The wishes of children were sometimes so simple that it made people feel sad.
Qiao man and Wen Cheng finished reminiscing with reddened eyes. Then, they squatted down and looked at the tearful Xin Qiao. “Xin Qiao, you’ve been by daddy’s side these few days. Have you eaten well and listened to Daddy? ”
Xin Qiao nodded heavily. Then, she stretched out her short and fat arms and wrapped them around Qiao Man’s neck. “Xin Qiao has listened to daddy’s words, but she really misses mommy. She wants mommy to come back to my side! ”
Qiao man reached out and touched Xin Qiao’s hair. Her voice was low and gentle. “Yes, our Xin Qiao is so obedient! ”
Ji Yunshen saw her squatting down and patiently coaxing Xin Qiao. For some reason, the more he looked at her, the more he felt that she was an eyesore. He gave Meng Dongxing, who was standing at the side, a look. Meng Dongxing received the look from him and raised his eyebrows in confusion She looked very innocent and ignorant.
Ji Yunshen saw his reaction and smiled at first. Then, he habitually lowered his head and caressed the wedding ring on his right hand. It clearly looked like a habitual action, but it made Meng Dongxing’s expression slightly change. He put down the raised eyebrows There was also a lazy smile on the corner of his lips. He strode towards Qiao man and Xin Qiao who were hugging each other.
“Xin Qiao, don’t cling to mommy the moment you come back! ”
When Xin Qiao heard Meng Dongxing’s words, she very sensibly let go of the small arm that was around Qiao Man’s neck. Then, she pressed her forehead against hers “Mummy, Daddi also told me that as long as I’m obedient and treat my illness well, you won’t leave me and will always be by my side. Is this true? ”
Qiao man had just nodded her head. Before she could finish her sentence, her entire body was pulled up by the large hand that the man beside her extended.
Then, a deep and magnetic voice rang in her ear, “don’t make promises to children if you can’t do it. She will be very disappointed if she has any hope now! ”
Qiao man blinked her eyes in confusion and then looked at JI yunshen coldly. “Why are you so nervous? WHO said that I can’t do what I promised? Also, how do you know what I’m going to promise? ”
Ji Yunshen’s usually calm face had a lot of emotions.
After staring at each other for more than ten seconds, his eyes darkened again. His gaze lingered on her fair and delicate face as he said softly, “Man man, why are you angry with me? Why don’t you like me or hate me? I can accept all of that, but don’t say anything that makes me angry on purpose, or even that you don’t care about me at all. Do you understand? ”
The image of him lowering his head and whispering softly in her ear was reflected in the eyes of Wen Cheng, Meng Dongxing, and Xin Qiao. It was like a particularly beautiful painting that was hard to forget with just a glance.
Qiao man reached out to push away his grip and tilted her head, trying to avoid the warm breath that he kept spraying at her. However, in the end, it turned into him hugging her in front of him with ease. In the eyes of outsiders.. It created an illusion of playing hard to get.
However, probably only Qiao man and Ji Yunshen knew who was playing hard to get and who was pestering them.
Meng Dongxing could not stand the closeness between the two of them and quickly said, “man man, CEO Ji, it’s getting late. Let’s go to the hospital to see Tong Qin First! ”
Qiao man could only nod in his arms, and Ji Yunshen did not have any other opinions.
When they walked out of the airport hall, Xin Qiao was reluctant to part with Qiao man and insisted on letting her carry her. Ji Yunshen saw that Xin Qiao had a feeling that if Qiao man did not carry her, she would not want to leave. As he frowned, he still walked over He picked up Xin Qiao with one hand, then with the other hand, he held Qiao Man and walked out of the airport.
Since someone was helping Meng Dongxing, he was happy and relaxed. Then, with one arm around Wen Cheng, he followed behind Ji Yunshen and Qiao man and walked out of the airport hall.
The group got into Ji Yunshen’s smoke-gray Bentley. Qiao man sat in the back with Xin Qiao, who was innocent and wronged, while Meng Dongxing sat in the passenger seat.
The car started and soon slid into the airport expressway.
In the back seat were Qiao man, Xin Qiao, and Wen Cheng. The three of them sat very close to each other. Wen Cheng’s shoulder rested on Qiao Man’s shoulder, while Xin Qiao lay in Wen Cheng’s arms. Her hand was held by Qiao Man’s, as if they were connected as one.
Meng Dongxing glanced at the three people behind him through the rearview mirror, especially Wen Cheng. Then, he glanced at the direction of the driver’s seat “When I came back, I asked someone to inquire about it. Since the accident on Friday night, more than thirty hours have passed. There hasn’t been any progress in the investigation of the accident. What does this mean? ”
The car was very quiet, so much so that Meng Dongxing’s words in the front row were clearly heard by Qiao man and Wen Cheng in the back seat.
Because Xin Qiao had her mother and father around, she was very satisfied. She was very obedient and spoke very little. She could not understand the words between adults, so she continued to lie quietly in Wen Cheng’s arms like before, not moving at all.
When Meng Dongxing did not say those words to Ji Yunshen, the three people in the backseat were immersed in the joy of meeting and could not extricate themselves from it. However, when he asked Ji Yunshen those words.. Qiao man and Wen Cheng had no choice but to extricate themselves from the joy of meeting.
Even if they did not understand the intrigue and intrigue in the world of men, Meng Dongxing’s words were clearly questioning Ji Yunshen. More than thirty hours had passed, and there was no progress in the investigation of the accident.. There were only two possibilities. One was that the investigation of the accident was forcefully interfered by the military and political forces of forest city and was forced to end.
And the other possibility was that the transport bureau did not take this case seriously at all. But in fact, it did not need to be thought out to know that how could they not take it seriously. The person who was in the accident was Ji Han, the adopted daughter of the JI family, who was known by everyone in the upper-class Society of forest city.
Her style of dressing and casual matching were always popular weather vane. Sometimes, her fame could even surpass that of an a-list celebrity.
How could such a person not attract the attention of the traffic bureau after a traffic accident? Moreover, she was backed by the entire JI family.
And other than Ji Yunshen, who would protect and protect Ji Han without any principles, he really could not think of anyone else in Lin city.
Ji Yunshen did not speak. His deep gaze was fixed on the road ahead, as if he did not intend to answer Meng Dongxing’s question.
Meng Dongxing took a deep breath. His strong, iron-like arms propped on the car frame. Just like that, he was silent for a few seconds. Perhaps after an even longer period of time, he spoke again in a low voice “Ji Yunshen, this matter is not something that you can resolve by covering up for or protecting her. Putting aside the fact that Tong Qin is my biological sister, I can’t just stand by and watch her get bullied. Just look at Ji Han’s meticulous mind… ”
He paused and seemed to ponder for a moment before he continued “We are both born and raised in forest city. We all know that the intersection between the coastal road and the foot of the mountain on Donghu road is a death corner. Coincidentally, it is also a blind spot for surveillance. Although it rained heavily last night, even if the visibility is low, it is impossible to not be able to tell if there is a car in front. ”
