Chapter 374

She lay on the bed, her eyes wide open as she stared at the rain outside the window without any focus, as well as the city at the foot of the mountain that was almost submerged by the heavy rain.

The entire JI family’s old mansion was surrounded by Ji Yunshen’s international mercenaries. The surveillance footage was spread across every corner of the old mansion, except for the fact that there were no surveillance devices installed in her bedroom There were almost no blind spots in this spacious mansion.

Not even a fly could fly out, let alone a human being.

In addition to these mercenaries and the terrifying surveillance equipment, he also sent people to set up a laser net at the exits of the old mansion. As long as an object approached, it would sound an alarm, triggering the mechanism and attracting a hail of bullets.

She even thought about Ji Yunshen’s intention and purpose a lot of times.

Because this was no longer a simple grounding or house arrest, but more like prison, she did not understand the purpose and purpose of his actions.

If he really could not stand her, or if he already hated her to the point where he could not forgive or resolve it, why didn’t he just send her directly to prison?

In any case, her matter was already known by everyone in the city. In any case, she had already fallen from high above the clouds into the mud and dust. In any case, she no longer had any connection with the JI family In any case, she would never have any chance to turn things around in her life.

Of course, she also thought that he was using this kind of direct and somewhat rough method to make her realize her mistake.

But the conditions in prison were much more difficult than here, weren’t they?

Moreover, there were so many preconditions that were gone. He didn’t need to have any scruples or reservations about her anymore.

Why did he do this She really couldn’t figure it out, nor could she understand it.

The answers to these questions that lingered in her mind were only found in the words of the few bodyguards guarding the door of her bedroom this morning, and she finally came to a realization.

It turned out that he had isolated her from the world, unable to receive any information from the outside world, and also unable to send any distress messages to the outside world. His purpose was to suppress all the people and things around her that could help her. First, it was Gu Xichen, Fu Qingshan, then it was Lu Yubai.

Especially… … Lu Yubai …

Had He planned all of this from a very long time ago, just waiting for a point, waiting for an opportunity, and this opportunity was the accident that caused her to lose her footing, as well as the fact that she had attacked Ji Donghe too quickly.

Sometimes, success or failure was a gamble.

And the key to the success of this gamble was the timing of the counterattack.

Obviously, she was too anxious.

So much so that she had revealed all her tricks in front of him. Perhaps before he knew the whole truth, he had really thought of letting her go, but she still wanted too much, so much so that when that opportunity passed, it was gone.

Or to put it more accurately, he had never thought of letting her off. Instead, he had used words like letting her off to induce her to continue doing things that hurt him and Qiao man fearlessly When the evidence and the truth had reached a certain level, he would retract the big net that he had let out.

And other than his unwavering ruthlessness towards her, she was thinking more about the question of whether he had ever loved her.

Ji Yunshen always said that she actually did not love him, but she knew very well that she really loved him.

It was because she loved him too much that she had blinded her eyes and pretended that she could not see the coldness and distance that he had shown her after he married Qiao Man. She even thought that it was his responsibility.

She thought that from the beginning until now, the most thorough reason why she had lost was because she really loved him too much.

If she had to prove it, then the only way to prove it was probably to dig out her eyes and Heart, and it would definitely be filled with his reflection. Other than him, there would be no other impurities or shadows.

Her thoughts drifted to a faraway place unconsciously, until a series of messy footsteps came from outside the door, which pulled back her thoughts that had drifted to an unknown place.

Outside the floor-to-ceiling window of the bedroom, there was a storm, lightning, and thunder. She immediately bounced up from the big bed in the room, and her long hair, which had always been well-groomed, fell messily on her shoulders It was a little horrifying and dazzling against the flickering light and darkness of the window glass in the middle of the night.

After she was sure that the voices coming from outside the door were Ji Yunshen and Fu Qingshan, she quickly jumped off the bed and walked to the floor-to-ceiling Window Panes with the curtains open. She stretched out her hand to tidy up the messy long hair on her shoulders She also stretched out her hand to tidy up the white bandage on her forehead and the expression on her face.

At least in the reflection of the window panes, she didn’t look so Pale and scary. Then, she ran to the pear blossom wood door and quickly pulled open the door panel. She called out to the two tall men who were about to enter the study diagonally.

“Ah Shen, brother Qingshan, is that you? ”

When Ji Han first arrived at the JI family, due to her inferiority complex, she would often pull open the door when the two of them were about to leave or when she was sad. She would call out their names softly.

Time flew by. She didn’t expect to hear such a clear tone again after more than ten years. It was when they were already at the end of the road.

Ji Yunshen walked in front while Fu Qingshan walked behind. When they heard Ji Han’s voice, the two of them stopped in their tracks at the same time. After pausing for about two to three seconds, Ji Yunshen continued to walk towards the depths of the study.

Fu Qingshan glanced over, but when he saw Ji Han’s miserable appearance, he frowned. He did not speak, nor did he have any emotions. It was as if he had met a very weak woman on the road, and he subconsciously glanced at her reaction.

Then, he followed Ji Yunshen into the study and turned around to close the study door.

Ji Han wanted to rush out, but she was blocked by two burly bodyguards who stretched out their iron arms. She leaned against the door frame and slowly fell to the ground, muttering their names non-stop However, it was no longer able to exchange the words and gazes of concern from anyone.

After Ji Yunshen heard the sound of the door closing, he took out a cigarette case from his pocket, took one out, and put it in his mouth. Then, he took out another cigarette and handed it to Fu Qingshan, who walked to his side “This is probably the last time I’ll see her. Do you have anything you want me to tell her, or do you want to say it yourself? ”

Tomorrow, Ji Han would be sent to the detention center. Tonight, he and Fu Qingshan would come because they wanted to explain everything in the past so that they could finish what they started.

Fu Qingshan took the cigarette from Ji Yunshen’s hand and put it in his mouth. Then, he moved closer to his lighter and lit it. After lighting it, he took a deep breath. He raised his head and slowly exhaled the smoke from his mouth. “after all, I’ve liked him for so many years. I want to tell him personally. ”

Ji Yunshen nodded without any objections. “Okay! ”

Actually, he and Fu Qingshan had come not because they were reluctant to part, nor because they were reluctant to part. They had simply come to bid farewell to the past, to bid farewell to everything that had happened in the past, to bid farewell to the more than ten years of love and unrequited love, to bid farewell to all the hurt and pain And then to be reborn.

The lights in the study were not turned on. The two of them stood by the French windows and smoked. Neither of them spoke again.

The garden lights outside the window shone through the heavy rain and the window glass that was filled with water vapor. The blurry light and shadows that were reflected in the windows made the two men’s tall figures look even colder and straighter.

The two of them smoked almost at the same speed. Ji Yunshen finished the last cigarette in his hand first. Before he turned around, he put out the cigarette butt in the transparent ashtray on the desk They saw a black car slowly driving over from the end of the old mansion’s courtyard. The high-beam light shone through the rain onto the old mansion’s building, refracting the light and shadow.

Ji Yunshen and Fu Qingshan exchanged a look, then turned around to extinguish the cigarette butt in their hands. At this time, the black car slowly stopped on the parking lot in front of the old mansion. Then, a woman in a white dress walked out She was holding a black umbrella.

The umbrella was a little big, almost covering half of her face, so no one could see her face clearly.

But what was certain was that the two of them had never seen this woman before, nor did they know each other.

Ji Yunshen frowned. Just as he was about to take out the thin cell phone in his pocket and call the mercenaries guarding the entrance of the old house, he saw a familiar woman get out of the front passenger seat.

It was late at night, it was raining, and his vision was not good, so he could not see the situation in the driver’s seat clearly.

The two of them thought that the woman who got out of the car was the only one in the car, but they did not expect that the door of the front passenger seat was pushed open immediately. The woman who got out was also wearing a white dress, but the difference was that she was holding a rainbow umbrella It was the rainbow umbrella that was placed in the umbrella rack in the lobby of the Azure Dragon Lake apartment.

The mercenaries at the entrance of the old mansion would allow this car to enter. Most of the reason was probably because of Qiao Man’s face.

The two men in the study room did not expect that Qiao man would bring an unfamiliar woman. They walked out of the study room almost at the same time.

When they reached the door, Ji Yunshen glanced at Fu Qingshan who was beside him. “Old Fu, go and say goodbye to her first. I’ll go downstairs and take a look. ”

Fu Qingshan nodded.”… Yes, that’s good too.”

Just like that, one of them went to see Ji Han, while the other went downstairs to see Qiao man.

…

Outside the old residence.

The woman holding the black umbrella was one step faster than Qiao man as she walked under the rain in front of the door. Before she could put away the black umbrella properly, the anti-theft door was opened from the inside. Then, a tall man’s figure came into the woman’s sight, followed by.. And his handsome face that looked like a chisel.

Qiao man walked in the rain in her high heels. When she was about a few meters away from the rain, the man behind the door walked out of the hall and quickly approached Qiao Man who was walking in the rain.

Before she could see his face clearly, the tall man hugged her in his arms and stopped her high heels from continuing to soak in the rain.

Qiao man wrapped one hand around his neck and raised the rainbow umbrella in her hand. She looked at the man’s side profile which was becoming more and more three-dimensional under the dim light and said in a low voice, “Ji Yunshen, how did you know that I was here? ”

“I happened to be standing by the window. I saw you walking over from the parking lot, so I came downstairs to pick you up. ”

It was already like a war for a woman to wear high heels, not to mention wearing high heels in the heavy rain. Once the rain entered the high heels, the feet would slip in the high heels, and it was very easy to twist the ankle and fall.. When he saw it, he rushed down almost immediately. And this speed, not only Qiao man was shocked, even he himself was a little shocked.

“… Oh.”

Qiao Man’s soft arm that was wrapped around the man’s neck moved. Then, through the dim light, she looked at the woman standing at the door with the black umbrella under the rain. She gave her a look, indicating that she should go in first.

The woman with the black umbrella received her gaze and nodded. Then, she took the black umbrella that was still dripping with rainwater and walked in.

Ji Yunshen carried Qiao man all the way to the SOFA in the living room. Only then did he slowly let go of the action of hugging her. He also asked someone to quickly bring a towel to wipe her wet hair and the rain on her clothes.

Although she had only taken a few steps when she was hugged by the man, the rain was too heavy. Coupled with the force of the wind, most of the rain blew onto her loose hair and skirt. Although she did not look as exquisite as usual.. She was not in a sorry state either.

“CEO JI is really gentle and considerate! ”

After the woman with the black umbrella walked in, she walked to the SOFA and sat down. After seeing Ji Yunshen’s care and doting on Qiao Man, she turned her head away from time to time or blinked uncomfortably. It was probably because she had never been cared for and doted on by a man like this before.. Therefore, after seeing it with her own eyes, she would feel envious and embarrassed.

After Ji Yunshen heard what the woman sitting opposite Qiao Man said, he glanced at Qiao Man. “Who is she? ”

Qiao man felt his big hand gently wiping the top of her head and the ends of her hair. She answered in a tone that was even lighter than his, “it’s a secret. ”

When the tall and straight man heard her answer, he frowned slightly. “then you should at least tell me why you brought her here, right? ”

“… well, it’s still a secret.”

Ji Yunshen did not like to pry into other people’s secrets, but it was already one o’clock in the morning. It was not difficult to guess her purpose of bringing a strange woman here. It was probably for Ji Han, who was locked in his room.

After Qiao man finished speaking, the woman holding the black umbrella smiled and said, “it’s okay, man man. I’m not some shady person. There’s no need to hide anything. You can tell President Ji anything about me. I don’t mind. ”

After Qiao man heard this, she furrowed her beautiful eyebrows. Then, she looked at the man in front of her and said in an indifferent tone, “she… is Xin Qiao’s mother. ”

Xin Qiao’s identity had long been exposed. She was neither Meng Dongxing’s child nor his child, but… … Meng Dongxing owed a great favor to a person’s child …

And the person that Meng Dongxing owed a great favor to was… … Lin Nancheng …

“President Ji, I’d like to formally introduce myself. My Name is Song Guo, Xin Qiao’s mother. ”

Song Guo stretched out her soft little hand towards Ji Yunshen. Ji Yunshen did not shake it back, and his slightly furrowed brows instantly furrowed. “So, Miss Song, why did you come to visit so late at night? ”

Qiao man wanted to answer on Song Guo’s behalf, but was stopped by Song Guo who stretched out her hand and answered in a light tone “It’s like this, President Ji. I took my mother’s surname, Song. But actually, my biological father’s surname was Su. He was a very famous jewelry merchant overseas. Back then, he wanted me to go to the Galaxy Hotel to seduce a jewelry merchant who was old enough to be my father. I went there because I had no other choice. ”

“But… I didn’t expect that by chance, I would get involved with Lin Nancheng. ”

“I didn’t think of appearing again, nor did I think of getting involved with Lin Nancheng. But Xin Qiao’s leukemia can no longer be delayed. I hope that you can let Qiao man and I go abroad for a few months until Xin Qiao’s illness is cured. Of course, as a reward for this matter, I will give you something that is as important as this matter. ”

Ji Yunshen did not say anything. Instead, he sat beside Qiao Man and looked at Song Guo opposite him. It was as if he was waiting for her to finish everything before he made a decision.

Song Guo pursed her lips. After two seconds, she continued “President Ji, I know that you and Fu Qingshan are very close brothers. We are like brothers. I also know that he actually cares about Lin Yan a lot. What I want to say is… back then, Lin Yan suffered from postpartum depression, and a large part of it was because of Ji Han. ”

“I believe you also know that Miss Ji Han studied psychology and is very skilled in using psychological medicine. After giving birth, Lin Yan suffered from postpartum depression for a long period of time. It was through a doctor she was familiar with that she tampered with Lin Yan’s medicine… “. … …”

Song Guo did not say the rest of her words.

She believed that Ji Yunshen was smart enough to understand the meaning behind her words.

Although Lin Yan suffered from a very serious postpartum depression, through the guidance of a psychologist, it was not so serious that she would burn down the villa and the few-month-old child in the villa.

Was there anything fishy about this Or, if there was nothing fishy, was Ji Han an indirect executioner?

It was said that Fu Qingshan had been frequenting nightclubs and bars recently. He rarely went to the bar when he was awake, and when he was awake, it was often difficult for him to fall asleep. The dosage of sleeping pills had reached the point where the doctor had issued a serious warning.

If he heard that the woman he had liked for so many years and sacrificed so many years had done such a thing to his family, would he continue to have a breakdown?

Everyone knew that he could not love Lin Yan now.

There was no excuse to keep her. If he knew that the culprit was his own negligence and distrust, then the result could be imagined.

“Miss Song, can you tell me how you know all this? ”

Song Guo changed her crossed legs and continued to speak in a light tone “coincidentally, that psychiatrist was a blind date I went on in the United States. I accidentally found out when he was drunk. But you don’t have to blame yourself, because the people who went to his place to get the medicine are different, and their professions are different. If you don’t suspect anything, it will be very difficult to find out who it is. ”

“He knew who the person behind the scenes was because of a woman named Jiang Meng. He heard that she called him before the accident and told him everything. She also told him that if anything happened to her, he should leave as far away as possible. He didn’t expect that something would happen to her not long after the call ended

“The psychiatrist didn’t dare to delay for a minute and bought a plane ticket to leave the country. Later, he found out that his psychological clinic had been forcibly closed by someone. Moreover, there were people who went to inquire about him every day. Therefore, he had been hiding abroad and didn’t dare to return to the country. ”

After Ji Yunshen heard this, his tightly knitted brows furrowed into a ball. “Miss Song, then why did you choose to say it now? ”

“To tell you the truth, President Ji, I’ve been looking for an opportunity to get close to Xin Qiao, and this opportunity is the best opportunity for me. ”

Qiao man had probably agreed to it because she wanted to avenge Lin Yan.

Moreover, Song Guo was Xin Qiao’s mother after all, so she would definitely not mistreat Xin Qiao. Moreover, she had a successful career now, so she had the ability and conditions to take good care of Xin Qiao.

Of course, other than these, the most important thing was that Song Guo’s body was better than Lin Yan’s. If Song Guo could save Xin Qiao, then Lin Yan wouldn’t need to do any more bone marrow transplants. This would be better for Lin Yan’s already weak body.

Ji Yunshen nodded and didn’t say anything. Instead, he took out a cigarette box from his pocket and took out a cigarette. He placed it on the back of his hand and gently tapped it, as if he was thinking about her suggestion just now.

“President Ji, I just need Qiao Man’s company. When Xin Qiao’s body is better, I will return it in one piece. Of course, during this process, I will take good care of her… ”

“Miss Song… ” Ji Yunshen interrupted Song Guo’s words in a low voice. “Are you that confident that I’ll agree to your request for Old Fu? ”

“OF COURSE! ”

Song Guo blinked her eyes and a faint smile appeared on her lips. “I think… you’ll agree to my request for Mr. Fu’s sake. ”

Ji Yunshen took a deep breath and sank his back deeply into the back of the Leather Sofa. Then, he looked at Song Guo across the bright light that fell from the living room. “Miss Song, I’m afraid you’ve misunderstood me. ”

“President Ji, do you not want to agree? ”

As she spoke, Song Guo stood up from the SOFA and lowered her head to fiddle with the black umbrella in her hand. “It’s okay, President Ji. Of course, I know you have the right to refuse, but I may not continue to hide this matter… ”

She raised her left hand and looked at the exquisite dial on her wrist “It’s 1:32 am now. I will expose what I know to the media in Lin city before 5 am. If Mr. JI changes his decision before 5 am, I will welcome him with both hands. But if you don’t change your decision, I also respect Mr. Ji’s choice. ”

After saying that, she nodded slightly at Qiao Man. “Man man, thank you for bringing me here. I WON’T DISTURB YOU ANYMORE! ”

After saying that, Song Guo took the black umbrella in her hand and walked towards the door. She had just taken two steps when she was interrupted by Ji Yunshen’s deep voice. He said, “Miss Song, you know that I have many ways to prevent you from exposing your information. However, you are old Lin’s woman. I don’t want to be too harsh on you. I can only give you one month’s time. ”
