Qiao man was really sleepy. Her small hands randomly pushed him away twice, but she did not push him away. Her beautiful eyebrows could not help but furrow deeply, and her delicate and small face also furrowed into a ball to show her protest.
The man’s actions just now did not change. They were in a stalemate for a few seconds. In order not to let him continue to disturb her sleep, she could only open her eyes and eat the noodles with his movements. Only when she could not eat anymore did she shake her head at him.
“Ji Yunshen, I can’t eat anymore. ”
She had only eaten less than a third of a bowl of noodles. However, he was very clear about her appetite, so he did not continue to force her to eat. Instead, he quickly finished off the remaining noodles she had eaten.
Qiao man was not disturbed by anyone and quickly fell into a deep sleep again. It seemed that he had really tormented her too much last night.
He sat by the bed and watched for a long time before he got up and left.
The rain outside the window still did not show any signs of stopping. Qiao man listened to the sound of the rain and was deeply immersed in her sleep. The corners of her beautiful lips had a faint smile that was similar to the arc of happiness.
…
Qiao man slept for a very long time. When she opened her eyes, there was already a dark color in front of her. Other than the dim light and shadows pouring in from the floor-to-ceiling window, there was almost no light at all.
It was still raining outside. She could clearly hear the sound of the wind blowing the raindrops onto the window glass.
She adapted to the darkness in front of her for a while before sitting up. She turned on the wall lamp beside the bed and began to look for someone.
The dim yellow light poured down from the top of her head, barely illuminating a corner of the room. She first turned her head to look at the bed beside her. The bed was very flat and there were no signs of the man lying on it.
Qiao man frowned slightly, almost subconsciously turning her head to look at the direction of the balcony, but there was still no sign of that man.
After looking at it for a few seconds, she withdrew her gaze and then looked at the european-style retro clock on the wall. The time shown on it was already 11:40 in the middle of the night. At this time, he… Where would he go ? ?
She thought for a while, but could not think of an answer, so she did not continue to struggle.
After this long awakening, she felt very thirsty, so she lifted the quilt and got off the bed. She put on the pair of white cotton slippers placed beside the bed, then walked towards the room door, preparing to go downstairs to drink some water.
As soon as she opened the door, she felt a strong chill, accompanied by a strong wind.
She looked over, and it turned out that the window at the end of the corridor had been blown open by the wind. She quickly walked over against the scattered wind and rain, and tiptoed to close the window.
Before she could turn around, she heard the sound of a car engine coming from the courtyard.
She leaned close to the window and used her hand to wipe away the misty mist on it. Then she saw the smoke-gray Bentley driving through the heavy rain toward the end of the courtyard.
She didn’t turn around until the taillight disappeared from her sight and walked toward the stairs.
She wanted to call him and ask him where he was going, but she hesitated for a moment and didn’t make the call.
Perhaps she was destined to be a coward in this relationship.
Other than being pretentious and bluffing, the rest was all about gains and losses.
When she went downstairs to drink water and then went upstairs, she was no longer sleepy.
She didn’t want to watch TV, play with her phone and tablet, or drink alcohol. In the end, all that was left was reading paper books.
She used to love reading paper books to make her sleepy, and she still had this habit. When all the electronics couldn’t fill the emptiness and loneliness in her heart, she would read a paper book for a while She used this most traditional and ancient way to fill the emptiness in her heart.
After going upstairs, she directly lifted her feet and walked toward the study.
The lights in the study were not turned on, only the flickering lights outside the French windows.
After she walked in, she turned on the table lamp in the corner, then picked the books she was interested in in the bookcase. Finally, she set her eyes on the English translation of Notre Dame de Paris.
When she was a student, she loved this book crazily. However, her book was not a collector’s edition, while Ji Yunshen’s book was a collector’s edition.
She stood on her tiptoes and took the book from the third row of the bookcase. Before she started to flip through it, a photo fell from the page.
The light was dim, and what fell on the ground was the back of the photo again. She only saw two lines of beautiful words. The West Wind was so strong that it could not blow away the curve of her eyebrows.
She frowned, and all her emotions began to surge. She could not even breathe properly for a second.
Although it was impossible to determine who the photo was about with just two sentences, the font on it was clearly hers. Only the photo that she had searched for a long time could have these two sentences written on it No matter how much hatred there was in the West Wind, it couldn’t blow away the curvature of her brows.
She stood there in a daze for more than ten seconds before she squatted down, picked up the photo on the ground, and quickly flipped it over.
As she had guessed, this photo was the one that she had lost.
It was no exaggeration to say that this photo was her first love. To her, it had many extraordinary meanings. After losing it, she had been frustrated for a long time, even though she had fallen in love with Ji Yunshen And it had completely replaced the influence of the man’s back in the photo.
But… … Some things had already seeped into her bones and blood. It was simply impossible to uproot them …
And this photo was also the initial blank in her memory.
But… … Why did the photo that she thought she had lost appear with Ji Yunshen ? ?
When and where did he pick it up?
Many questions swirled in her mind, but she could not give herself an answer at all. She could only ask him.
The idea of reading to cultivate sleepiness was completely dispelled by the sudden appearance of the picture.
She put the book back to its original position and turned off the wall lamp in the corner. Then, she took the picture and curled up on the SOFA that was less than two meters in front of the French window.
The storm outside the window was still very strong. She looked at it and did not know why she felt sleepy. Then, she fell into a deep sleep.
She was not a sleepy person, but for some reason, she had become very sleepy recently. As long as the space was quiet enough, she could fall asleep very quickly.
This time, there was no exception.
…
At one o’clock in the night, in a certain high-class private hospital in Lin city.
After Ji Han swallowed a razor blade and committed suicide, she cut her throat, affecting her vocal cords and voice. Now, she was basically unable to speak.
The doctor did not dare to hide such things from her, so he told her the truth. He told her that even if she recovered in the future, her voice would not be as sweet and soft as before. It would become very rough and even… … Unpleasant …
After she found out, her mood became very unstable. She smashed everything in the ward that could be smashed. The people in the hospital had no other choice, so they called Ji Yunshen to come over and deal with it.
After all, Ji Han had been the eldest daughter of the JI family for more than twenty years. The JI family still had the halo and influence on her.
Moreover, Ji Yunshen had single-handedly arranged for Ji Han to be hospitalized. The hospital really did not dare to make any decisions for him, and… … All the doctors and the leaders of the hospital did not dare to take the risk of offending Ji Han, so they could only brace themselves and call him. They did not expect him to really come …
“I’m sorry, Mr. Ji. It’s so late and you’re still here. We really can’t do anything to Miss Ji Han… ”
After hearing the doctor’s words, Ji Yunshen did not have much of a reaction. He only nodded slightly. “It’s okay. You guys go and rest. Leave the rest to me. ”
The doctor nodded as if he had been granted amnesty. “Okay, Mr. Ji. Then, Miss Ji Han will be counting on you. We’ll be leaving first. ”
Ji Yunshen stood where he was. After seeing the doctor’s retreating figure, he frowned slightly. The faint curve of his lips was slightly straightened. After two seconds, he turned around and walked towards the door of the ward with his long and strong legs.
Ji Han was still smashing things. When she heard the door open, she thought that another doctor had come to persuade her. She casually glanced at the thing in her hand, and the man quickly dodged it. Then, the vase-like bottle fell on the wall by the door of the ward Glass shards instantly flew to every corner of the room.
“Get lost, all of you get lost… ”
Her voice could not make a sound at all. It was more like an old musical instrument that had been out of repair for a long time. It could only make a dull sound, and it could no longer release any pleasant tones.
Ji Yunshen frowned and took out a cigarette box from his trouser pocket. He took out a cigarette and played with it in his hand “Ji Han, I thought you, a socialite who has studied in the JI family for so many years, had long integrated the words ‘socialite’ into your blood and bones… ”
When Ji Han heard Ji Yunshen’s voice coming from behind her, her entire body stiffened for a moment before she turned around to look at Ji Yunshen.
The smile on the corner of her lips did not have the time to expand. She did not even have the time to take a step when she heard him say, “It seems that I have really overestimated you. ”
Ji Yunshen’s words contained a lot of ridicule and ridicule, causing the people who heard it to be unable to help but feel a sense of sadness. Moreover, they had a ten-year relationship foundation, and they were family members for so many years… …
“Ah Shen, I… ”
She moved closer to him, and her rough voice came out from her injured throat, sounding too unpleasant.
“I came here at this time to tell you that you don’t need to think of ways to make others feel pity for you. I won’t compromise, and I won’t be soft-hearted. ”
He paused for a moment before saying, “as for the sentence you’re most concerned about, don’t worry. I’ll get old Shen to extend your sentence as much as possible. That way, you’ll have a lot of time to reflect on the mistakes you’ve made. ”
Ji Han’s face turned paler and Paler as he spoke.
It was as if she suddenly didn’t know the man in front of her, or she had never really known him.
Of course, if it had to be more accurate, he could go through fire and water with the people he loved, but he could also be cold and heartless to the people he didn’t love.
She was once the person he loved in his hands, but now she had become the person he wanted to punish and push away the most. Sometimes, she really wanted to ask, what did she do wrong?
Ji Han wore cotton slippers and stepped on the glass shards as she slowly approached him.
After she approached him, she said in a deep and rough voice, “Shen, can you listen to my explanation? I beg you to listen to my explanation… ”
Her hands were always placed in front of her. When she saw that his straight eyebrows were getting tighter and tighter, she tried to reach out to pull his hand, but he noticed her and shook her off in mid-air.
Ji Han’s eyes reddened slightly because of his somewhat repulsive and repulsive action “Ah Shen, I know that there are some things that I did wrong. I can change, but you… but can you not treat me with such an attitude? I’m really suffering, really… really suffering. ”
“Ji Han, do you know what suffering is? ”
Ji Yunshen held the cigarette in his hand in his mouth. Then he lowered his head and leaned closer to the lighter. After lighting it, he took a deep breath, and then slowly exhaled a puff of smoke in her direction “Then, do you know how uncomfortable it is for my family who have always treated you as their own? ”
“All these years, they have really put their heart into treating you, and so have I. ”
He smiled. Then, his pair of deep eyes seemed to have turned into a double-edged sword, slashing in her direction “But what about you? What have you done? You used the most despicable method to kill grandma, killed Qiao Man and my first child, and caused me to be separated from her for five years. Now, you even want to hurt GRANDPA… ”
“Ji Han, I really want to ask you, have you really grown a heart? ”
His gaze became more and more aggressive. “If you really have grown a heart, it will definitely not be a red heart, but a black heart. There’s no starlight in it, and you can’t see the end of the heart. ”
Ji Han raised her head, forcing the warmth and moisture in her eyes away. Then, she pursed her lips, her reaction was very calm “Ah Shen, you can’t push everything onto me just because I’m living under someone else’s roof. I admit that there were once or twice when I was jealous and wanted to deal with Qiao man, but that was only a short-term thought, and I never acted on it… ”
“Is that so? ”
Ji Yunshen very gently interrupted him with a charming smile “Ji Han, did you suddenly lose your memory, or is your brain not working properly? ” “Let’s not talk about other things first. Just five years ago, outside Qiao man and Tong Qin’s military tent, you used a big fire to burn Tong Qin beyond recognition, and also caused 20% of Qiao man’s body to be burned. Then, May I ask, is this only a short-term thought of yours? ”
After hearing his words, Ji Han did not speak anymore. Instead, she stretched out her hand to unbutton her shirt “Ah Shen, I know that I’m not as willing as Qiao man to devote myself to you, and that’s why you chose to break up with me. Now, I’ll give it to you, okay? Then… we can start over. ”
Ji Yunshen did not look at the glory on her chest as she unbuttoned her shirt. He only said one sentence calmly “Ji Han, I like to finish what I start. Even if I feel that I don’t have anything to say to you anymore, since you’ve brought up the things that happened back then, I’ll explain it one last time. After all… … This side of US might be the last time we’ll see each other in this lifetime.”
As he spoke, he raised the cigarette in his hand and drew it close to his mouth to take a deep breath. After that, he slowly exhaled and said in a slightly hoarse voice that was tainted by the smoke.. “back then, when we broke up, it had nothing to do with anyone else. It was because of the differences between you and me, as well as… your concerns. ”
“while you enjoyed the halo the JI family gave you, you hung on to me and didn’t allow me to tell my family about our relationship. Ji Han, do you think that a relationship that is only for your own consideration will last for long? ”
Ji Han did not speak, but fell silent.
After about ten seconds, she slowly said, “Ah Shen, is it that difficult to make you admit that you’ve fallen in love with someone else? Isn’t Qiao man enjoying your good qualities while keeping you in suspense? What’s the difference between her and me back then… ”
Before Ji Han could finish her words, she was interrupted by Ji Yunshen’s deep and magnetic voice. He said, “Ji Han, there’s a big difference between you and her. She grew up in a superior environment, and she views everything from a kind point of view. But you’re not. Everything you view is filled with malicious speculation. Of course, there’s a more important point… ”
She raised her face and waited for him to continue.
Two seconds later, he said softly, “she loves me very much. It’s not a perfunctory love to keep me hanging, but… she really loves me. ”
He and Ji Han had been together for ten years, but he had never once felt that she loved him very much.
At the very least, between him and her identity as the eldest daughter of the JI family, she would always choose the former.
Such a utilitarian relationship, how could there be true love How could there be… … Deep Love ? ?
Ji Han’s body swayed. In the end, she reached out to support herself against the cold wall before she stood up. “Ah Shen, you’ve misunderstood me… ”
“Ji Han, I hope you understand that whether you really loved me in that relationship or whether I’ve always misunderstood you, it’s no longer important to me now. What’s important is that you’re going to jail, and… I personally sent you there. ”
With that, he turned around and walked out of the ward.
Just as he took a step forward, Ji Han’s voice sounded again. “Ah Shen, let me take a good look at you again, okay? ”
“sorry, I should go back. She’ll be scared at home alone. ”
“Shen… ”
She called out to him again and quickly moved in front of him. She raised her face and looked at his indifferent handsome face. “Do you really have the heart to watch me go to prison, or even… die? ”
“Die? ” Ji Yunshen smiled faintly. “Ji Han, I won’t let you die. I will let you live forever and see my happiness. ”
After saying that, he reached out his hand and brushed away the woman in front of him. Without stopping, he opened the door of the ward and strode out.
The rain was still falling outside. He did not know whether it was because of the low temperature this year or because the rainy nights in the seaside city were always too cold and without warmth. He felt that the wind and rain were too cold and piercing to his body. There was not even a bit of warmth.
The rain was very heavy. He did not hold an umbrella and just walked in the rain.
The rain soon soaked his white shirt and his well-ironed black trousers.
After more than ten seconds, he walked to the parking lot in front of the hospital building, pressed the remote control lock, and quickly sat in the driver’s seat of the car.
After he got in the car, he did not immediately start the car. Instead, he took out a cigarette case, took out a cigarette, and lit it up.
After smoking one cigarette, he immediately lit another one. Only after all the emotions in his heart had calmed down did he start the car and step on the accelerator. The car quickly cut through the heavy rain curtain and drove in the direction of the Blue Mountain Villa.
Tian Tian and Elena were in the Azure Dragon Lake apartment, and he was actually not at ease. However, it was rare for him to be alone with Qiao man, so he temporarily put down those worries. Moreover, he trusted Elena from the bottom of his heart, and he felt that she would definitely take good care of Tian Tian Therefore, he did not feel too conflicted.
About twenty minutes later, the Smoky Gray Bentley parked steadily on the parking lot of the Blue Mountain villa.
He turned off the engine, pushed open the door of the main driver’s seat, and walked into the rain.
There was not a single bit of light in the villa. She had already fallen asleep, or had been sleeping all this time and had not woken up.
He walked into the villa. First, he went to the cloakroom to change into a set of clean pajamas. Then, he returned to the master bedroom. However, his pair of deep eyes, which had already adapted to the darkness, did not see the petite figure on the bed. His eyebrows twitched He quickly began to search.
UPSTAIRS, downstairs, the garage outside the villa, as well as the side rooms and villas. He even searched the glass-roofed villa once, but did not find her.
In the end, he decided to give it a try. He ran to the thermostatic wine cellar underground to look for her, but still did not find her.
Just as he was about to call someone to look for her, he heard a very loud sound coming from the study room. Without thinking, he ran upstairs to the study room.
After Qiao Man Fell Asleep on the Sofa, she had a nightmare.
She dreamed that she and Ji Yunshen had gotten separated in a foreign country. There was a sea of people, and she could not find him no matter how hard she tried.
Just as she was about to cry from anxiety, she seemed to hear his footsteps. When she followed his footsteps, She fell off the sofa.
Before she could fully wake up from that dream, the tall figure of the man stood beside her. “What happened? Did you fall? ”
Qiao man shook her head. “where have you been? I’ve been looking for you for a long time. ”
“I. . . went out to do something. Why are you looking for me? Did you miss me? ”
Qiao man did not realize that this was not a dream until his hot breath sprayed on her face.
“You, you… me, why am I here? ”
The scene in her dream gradually faded in front of her eyes, leaving only the scene in reality.
In the middle of it, she also remembered what happened before she fell asleep. She hurriedly picked up the photo in her hand and asked him, “Ji Yunshen, why is this photo with you? ”
Ji Yunshen frowned and looked at the photo that she held in front of him. After a while, he slowly said, “this is the photo that I picked up. ”
“I know that you picked up the photo. Where did you pick it up? When did you pick it up? Why did you leave this photo behind? Why did you put it in the book of Notre Dame? ”
