His mind was in a mess, as if all the wool had been scattered.

However, Wen Tiantian could not find which one was the entrance.

The sky gradually turned dark.

However, in the darkness of the room, it was hard to tell whether it was night or day.

Wen Tiantian, on the other hand, was not sleepy at all. Her nerves were in a state of extreme nervousness, and fear filled her entire body.

She lowered her head to her knees. Her shoulders twitched as she let out a faint cry.

Outside one school.

Ji Jingchen didn't know why he was here.

The woman had deceived him.

But all he could think of was her figure.

The bodyguard standing by the door looked at Ji Jingchen. He had been standing there for twenty minutes.

"Sir, do you want to open the door?"

"No!"

Ji Jingchen quickly refused.

He glanced at the door of the room and forced himself to look away with all his will.

Even when he returned to his bedroom, he couldn't sleep.

Wen Tianxue's sweet voice kept ringing in his ears.

Even the housekeeper said she didn't make it.

However, she was the one who went into the study and brought out the documents to hand to Ji Yiyan.

The truth was right in front of him, how could he believe it?

Ji Jingchen irritably stood up and went to his study.

He suddenly remembered Wen Tiantian's words.

Was what she took fake?

What fake?

Could it be …

Ji Jingchen trembled as he quickly flipped over the table.

This time, the bidding was very important. Zhong Li had come here before to discuss the plans made by many other managers.

But because the budget and design are not perfect, Ji vetoed it.

He had left it on the table, but now it was gone!

He looked up and down the desk and found nothing.

A wave of fear suddenly rose from Ji Jingchen's heart.

Wen Tiantian's explanation rang in his mind once more.

He clenched his fists and didn't even dare to think any further. He directly walked out with large strides.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Late at night, someone knocked on the butler's room door.

The butler was still worried about Wen Tiantian and couldn't fall asleep. He hastily opened the door and saw Ji Jingchen standing at the entrance.

There was a look of terror on his face that had never been there before!

"Have you had your study cleaned?"

The butler froze for a moment.

"Have you moved the plans on the table?"

The butler was scared stiff and quickly shook his head.

"No, sir, you have instructed that no one is to enter the study without your permission."

Ji Jingchen was stunned, as if he was struck by lightning.

"She didn't take it …" "What she took was fake …"

"It's fake …"

He took two hurried steps back, turned around, and walked unsteadily toward the end of the corridor.

The butler looked at him in horror.

He had been by his teacher's side for more than ten years, but he had never seen him in such a sorry state.

It was as if he had accidentally lost his most beloved treasure …

Ji Jingchen panicked as he arrived in front of Blacky's house, but he suddenly stopped.

He struggled to lift his hand.

Even if he was in front of Blade Mountain Flame Sea Guild, he would not bat an eye at Ji Jingchen.

At this moment, he didn't even have the courage to open the door.

He didn't dare.

He was afraid.

The bodyguard at the door whispered, "Sir?"

"Open the door." Ji Jingchen's voice was low and hoarse.

The bodyguard stepped forward, and he quickly went back on his word.

"No, I'll do it myself."

He brought her out himself.

The door opened and light shone into the dark room.

Ji Jingchen only glanced at it once, and his heart felt as if it was being torn apart.

The person curled up in the corner trembled in the shadow as they cried out in extreme depression.

She was crying …

Ji Jingchen felt as if a hand had grabbed his throat; all the air in the room was sucked away, making it hard for him to breathe.

Wen Tiantian did not seem to notice that someone had entered and shrunk herself into a ball, like a surprised child.

"Jiang Niangyao."

Ji JingChen softly called out, his voice so soft that it was almost inaudible.

As if he was afraid of scaring her.

Wen Tiantian had not moved.

Just when Ji Jingchen thought she didn't hear him, she slowly raised her head and stared at him, her gaze somewhat sluggish.

Ji Jingchen's heart felt as though it was being stabbed by knives when she looked at him. Even his fingers were trembling slightly.

"Are you here to scold me?"

She spoke carefully.

Ji Jingchen's brows wrinkled and a hint of jealousy appeared in his eyes.

He took off his coat and carefully placed it over her.

He opened his mouth with difficulty, "No."

Wen Tiantian did not move.

"Ji Jingchen …"

"Yes."

He picked her up as if she were a precious, fragile treasure.

With every step he took, he would be extremely careful.

"It wasn't mine …"

Her voice was low, like the whimper of a baby beast.

Ji Jingchen's heart ached so much that he could barely breathe.

"I know."

Wen Tiantian carefully pulled at his clothes.

"Ji Jingchen …"

"I'm afraid of the dark …"

Tears almost fell from Ji Jingchen's eyes.

He lowered his head and lightly kissed her forehead.

"I'm sorry, I don't know."

He carried the person in his arms and walked out. He wanted to use force, but he was worried that he would hurt her.

Carefully, carefully, he laid her on the bed.

The moment he moved, Wen Tiantian held onto his clothes tightly.

"So dark."

There were no lights on in the room, so Wen Tiantian's eyes were wide open as she looked around vigilantly.

Ji Jingchen placed his hand on the back of hers.

In a soft voice that he had never heard before, he said, "I'll turn on the lights, okay?"

Wen Tiantian, however, did not move as she continued to pull on his clothes.

Ji Jingchen didn't struggle. Instead, he picked her up and walked in the direction of the switch.

He stopped by the wall and kissed her forehead.

It was as soft as a feather.

"Will you turn on the light?"

After a while, Wen Tiantian carefully stretched out her hand and pressed the switch on the wall.

With a "pa", the room was lit up.

Ji took her in his arms and carried her to another switch.

"Continue." He kissed her forehead.

He turned on all the lights in the room and only then did he put her back on the bed.

He no longer tried to take the clothes out of Wen Tiantian's hands, but lay down beside her.

Wen Tiantian curled up in his embrace, but her eyes were wide open.

Ji Jingchen's hand rested on her waist, caressing her long hair as he patiently consoled her.

He lowered his head and kissed her forehead again.

"Rest, will you?"

Wen Tiantian still refused to close her eyes.

Ji Jingchen placed his palm over her eyes.

His vision turned dark, and Wen Tiantian immediately struggled.

Ji Jingchen leaned over, pressing his forehead against hers.

"Don't be afraid, the lights in the room won't go out. I'll be here forever."

"As soon as you open your eyes, you'll see me."

Wen Tiantian was still unwilling.

Ji Jingchen gently coaxed her.

"Good girl, you're tired."

Wen Tiantian finally relaxed. Not long later, she fell into a deep sleep.

Ji Jingchen gazed at the person in his arms. Countless feelings of regret and hatred engulfed him.

He held her gently.

"I'm sorry, I was wrong."

"I'm sorry …"
