The sky was always dark during winter nights. Ji Mufeng sent a message, telling Ji Ruxue to wait for him at home at night. Since Ji Ruxue understood Ji Mufeng's thoughts, she was naturally willing to reconcile with him.

When Ji Mufeng came back, his body was still emitting some cold air, but when he saw Ji Ruxue, who was busying herself in the kitchen, he actually felt some warmth.

Her heart softened as she placed her hands on Ji Ruxue's waist and rested her chin on Ji Ruxue's shoulder. She rubbed her chin as she asked, "What are you cooking?"

It had been a long time since Ji Mufeng had such a warm relationship with Ji Ruxue. Ji Ruxue also spoke softly, "I've stewed some soup. Quickly go wash your hands and come to eat."

Ji Ruxue was still smiling as she took out her phone for Ji Mufeng to see. "Today, Little Grape sent me a message saying that the little sister next door is very cute."

Ji Mufeng thought for a moment. Next door was the Liang Family, which did not engage in business or politics, but was a low-key family with a scholarly background. He had seen his daughter before.

He smiled and teasingly said, "Our son is so young, yet he already knows how to play with beautiful girls. What should we do in the future?" Ji Ruxue replied without thinking, "Of course I learned it from his father."

The two of them were stunned as soon as they heard this. Ji Ruxue bit her lips and was confused as to why she said such words. She got up, picked up her dishes, and silently headed to the kitchen.

His back was to the sides of the bed, and the space between them seemed to be separated by a huge chasm. After a long time, Ji Mufeng said, "Recently, I might be able to take Qin Xue to attend a meeting abroad, and it will be more than half a month."

Ji Ru Xue replied indifferently. She then asked, "Do you need me to help you pack your luggage?"

Ji Mufeng was somewhat surprised to hear this reply. He turned his head to take a look. Ji Ruxue was covered by a thin blanket, and her beautiful curves were outlined. However, she did not have much of a reaction.

As if unwilling to give up, he said, "That case was something you were following in the past …" Ji Ru Xue didn't want to reveal her thoughts and hastily interrupted him. With a somewhat irritated tone, she replied, "I will do it when I need to."

Ji Ru Xue turned off the bedside lamp and calmly said, "Sleep."

The room fell into darkness, as if the warmth from before had been replaced by darkness.

Sensing that the breathing of the people around her had gradually calmed down, Ji Ru Xue stood up and put on a coat before walking to the balcony. She didn't feel cold even though she was barefooted.

Time passed by quickly, and Ji Mufeng also brought Qin Xue to another country. After this, Ji Ruxue could finally do some things for Ji Mufeng.

The news of the arrival of a delicate and beautiful woman in a strange village immediately spread to every corner of the village, attracting men and women, young and old, all wanting to see this woman from the big city.

Ji Ru Xue pushed her hair back from her ears before she took the photo and asked an old woman, "Excuse me, have you seen this little girl before?"

The old woman's eyes were deep and her gaze was cloudy, but she could still see the photo clearly. She mumbled her lips and said, "Isn't that the Zhao family's girl?"

Hearing this, everyone was surprised, they did not expect anyone to find this place, but a vigilant farmer cautiously asked, "Who are you? "Why are you looking for Old Zhao's daughter?"

Ji Ru Xue smiled apologetically at the crowd. "My mother is sick and wanted me to find elder sister. That's what she wants." After he told the story he got from the orphanage, the crowd believed him.

"The dean told me that my sister had lived here before, so she wanted to take a look." Perhaps everyone would have some tolerance for a person who was born beautiful, so the villagers quickly became friendly.

Ji Ru Xue was brought to the Zhao family with a few words. There was only an old granny in the Zhao family. She sat in front of the house and asked, "What happened?"

Before Ji Ruxue could speak, the surrounding people had already explained everything. Ji Ruxue had also joined in as she squatted down and raised her head to look at Grandma Zhao.

Upon hearing these words, Grandma Zhao raised her trembling hands and caressed Ji Ruxue's face. Although she already knew in her heart that Grandma Zhao couldn't see clearly anymore, she could still feel the deep affection and love in her eyes. It was as if she was comforted by a mother.

Madam Zhao examined the mole for a moment before sighing. "It really does look like it …" She then said, "It's a pity that the child has already been taken away. Only my big brother came to visit me from time to time …"

Ji Ru Xue naturally knew that she wouldn't get any leads today and that she wasn't here for Qin Xue. She was here for the boy that Grandma Zhao spoke of — the boy who was similarly adopted by the Cold Night that year.

After she achieved her goal, Ji Ru Xue left a note for Grandma Zhao with her number on it. "Granny, if there's any news, you must tell me. My mother really misses her elder sister."

Ji Ru Xue rejected the surrounding people's invitation to dinner. She just said that her mother still needed someone to take care of her before she left.

The bustling village gradually calmed down after a long time. A simple-looking boy walked out from the shadow of the house. However, the cold expression on his face was a little out of place.

Leng Xing took the note and asked Grandma Zhao, "Granny, tell me, is this woman speaking the truth?" Grandma Zhao stood up and staggered into the room on her walking stick. "I hope that's true. That girl's life is too bitter. I just hope that someone will miss her."

After leaving the village, Ji Ruxue did not return to her original apartment. Instead, she went to the residence that Gu Wanyang had prepared for her and prepared to play the role of a good younger sister who was looking for her elder sister.

After reading for a long time, Ji Ruxue deleted the message and prepared to take her lunchbox to the hospital. Yes, there was indeed such a person who needed her to take care of him.

Ji Ruxue saw the cold smile on the car behind her. In the next few days, no one came to find Ji Ruxue, so Ji Ruxue was in no hurry. The more vigilant she was, the more valuable it was to capture her, right?

He had originally wanted to choose a woman from the NC to do all of these things. Ji Ruxue had requested to come personally, and since Ji Ruxue was truly capable, he had no reason to stop her.

"Ru Xue is fine. She's at home. Right, everything is progressing smoothly over there. Qin Xue's matters are also being investigated. She won't be exposed." Such conversations played out every day, causing Gu Wanyang to feel like he was about to die from the pressure every day.

Ji Ru Xue was making soup when she received a phone call. Ji Ru Xue smiled faintly as she thought, "Finally, I'm here." He picked up the phone and said softly, "Hello?"

Leng Xing happened to be in the building opposite Ji Ruxue and could see her busy in the kitchen. He had already observed her for several days before he decided to call her.

Leng Xing paid close attention to Ji Ruxue's expression as he said those words, purposely putting on a hoarse voice, "Hello? Are you looking for Leng Xue? I know her. "

Upon hearing the news about Leng Xue, Ji Ruxue accidentally knocked over the things in her hands and spilled some water on the table. She said in a nasal tone, "I'm sorry, I was too agitated."

He held the phone with both hands as tears welled up in his eyes, but he still smiled happily, "Then, when can we meet again?"

After talking for a while longer, they decided on a time to meet up. Leng Xing hung up the phone and sneered. He didn't expect anyone with a brain to send such a stupid woman to handle matters.

Ji Ruxue also received the news through her headset. "The people have already left. They're safe." Ji Ru Xue then stopped her expression and returned to her silent state. She raised her head to look at the window on the other side. Did she really think that she wouldn't notice?

On the day they met, Leng Xing had arrived very early, but Ji Ruxue had yet to arrive. Just as Leng Xing was about to leave in a fit of anger, a woman came in.

When Ji Ruxue saw Leng Xing, she slightly bowed with a nervous expression and said, "I'm sorry, Mister Leng. It was my mother who suddenly became seriously ill. I'm really sorry for being late."

Leng Xing, who had already prepared a bellyful of malicious words, didn't know what to do when faced with Ji Ru Xue's apology. He could only snort coldly and say, "You really don't know the rules." Then he sat down again.

When she saw that Leng Xing didn't leave with a flick of his sleeve, Ji Ruxue's face became slightly grateful. After she sat down, she didn't waste any more time and directly started speaking.

When Leng Xing heard this, her eyebrows knitted even tighter as she mockingly said, "Is that why your adoptive parents abandoned Leng Xue?" Ji Ru Xue waved her hand as she explained, "Back then, my parents went back to look for me as well, but elder sister has already been adopted …"

Hearing this, Leng Xing felt his heart ache. He didn't know why he had abandoned Leng Xue all those years ago. However, Leng Xue had clearly had the chance to be happy before being abandoned. He still remembered that Leng Xue loved to smile when she was young.

Leng Xing couldn't help but say something serious, "No wonder one of your parents died of a serious illness and wanted to find Leng Xue. Keep dreaming." With that, he quickly left.

Ji Ru Xue chased after him as she shouted from behind, "How do you know that Big Sister doesn't desire the warmth of home! You don't want me to be alone either! "

Seeing that Leng Xing had stopped walking, Ji Ruxue slowly stepped forward and said in a low voice, "Elder sister must have had a difficult time these past few years …"
