When the smoke-gray Bentley parked outside the Blue Mountain Villa, night had already quietly fallen. A few stars hung in the dark sky. When the wind blew past, the Magnolia trees swayed with the wind. Under the landscape lights, the faint shadows of the lights were reflected.

The shadow of the car was pulled long and long, surrounding Qiao Man’s figure. Ji Yunshen, who had been quiet the whole way, suddenly said, “I have an engagement at night. You should go back first. Sleep early. There’s no need to wait for me. ”

Qiao man nodded at his words and got out of the car. Her figure gradually disappeared into the courtyard of the villa. It was not until she could not see clearly that the smoke-gray Bentley started again. Like an Arrow, it drove into the night.

Just as she reached the entrance of the villa, the phone in her bag rang. Qiao man glanced at it and saw that it was an unknown number.

She hesitated for a moment and swiped the answer button “Miss Qiao, I’m a friend of Xie Zhiqian. I’ve already helped you contact the buyer of your grandfather’s necklace. He will stay in Lin city for about three hours this time. Time is tight, so I’ll only give you fifteen minutes. Can you rush over now? ”

Qiao Man’s fresh and clean eyes were filled with joy. Without thinking much, she asked, “where is he? I’ll rush over now. ”

“West Fifth Ring Road, this side of the coastal road, ” the man answered.

It was the coastal road in the suburbs. This could not help but remind her of Ji Yunshen’s coldness and the bone-chilling sea water that night. Her body could not help but tremble twice.

“Miss Qiao, is there a problem? ”

Seeing that there was no response from them for a long time, the man said, “if it’s not convenient, let’s make an appointment next time. This time, it’s really too rushed… ”

“It’s okay. ” Qiao man hurriedly interrupted the man, her voice soft. “I’ll rush over now. Please send the specific address to my phone later. ”

After hanging up the phone, Qiao man hurriedly ran to the entrance of the villa. She did not know if it was a coincidence or luck, but a taxi just happened to drive over. She stopped it and reported the address in the text message. The car started and sped toward the west of the city.

…

It was already late at night, and the undulating lights of thousands of houses were connected to the city. In the drizzle, the brilliance was confusing.

The smoke-gray Bentley cut through the rain, as if it was swimming in a river of dim lights. The evening wind passed through the half-lowered window and swept in diagonally. It hit the man’s strong legs, leaving a cloud of water.

The man, who was pretending to sleep, felt a chill. His eyebrows jumped, and he raised the window.

Raindrops fell on the window intensively. Secretary Yang, who was sitting in the front row, glanced out of the window. “Why is it raining again? ”

As he was speaking, his phone vibrated. He opened it and browsed the latest and hottest news of Lin city today. “there’s a robbery and murder case in the west of the city again. These robbers are really targeting young and rich girls. They’re only twenty years old. What a pity. ”

Ji Yunshen crossed his legs and lazily tapped his kneecaps with his fingers. Then, he raised his hand and looked at his mechanical watch. “Secretary Yang, call Zhang Sao and ask if Madam has eaten yet. ”

Recently, the city was not so peaceful. There were quite a number of people who were watching the JI family in the open and in the dark. He was afraid that someone would take advantage of the chaos to create some trouble. Especially since the scandal between him and Qiao man had caused a storm in the city. If someone wanted to use her as a threat… …

Thinking of this, he did not dare to think about it anymore.

“Okay, President Ji. ”

Secretary Yang was wondering why the president did not personally call Qiao Man. At the same time, Zhang Sao had already picked up the phone. “Zhang Sao, has Miss Qiao eaten? ”

Because the matter of the two of them getting their marriage certificates had not been made public in the JI family, Secretary Yang was especially careful when he spoke.

“Man Man? ” Zhang Sao was surprised for a moment, but she quickly said, “she hasn’t returned yet! ”

Secretary Yang’s expression changed. “She hasn’t returned, but we sent her back to the villa before leaving! ”

After hanging up the phone, Secretary Yang quickly turned to look at Ji Yunshen, Ji Yunshen, and CEO JI. Zhang Sao said that Miss Qiao hasn’t gone back yet.”

“turn around and go back. ”

Ji Yunshen took out his phone and immediately dialed Qiao Man’s number. However, he was notified that his phone had been turned off.

He pinched the space between his eyebrows, and a sense of unease welled up in his heart.

“Xiao Zhang, drive faster. ”

Xiao Zhang replied calmly, “okay, CEO JI. ”

The road was slippery, but Xiao Zhang was constantly speeding up. The rain became heavier and fell on the roof of the car, making a heavy sound.

When he got off the viaduct and turned left, he saw a taxi coming out from the scenic avenue. Secretary Yang was puzzled. “Aren’t taxis restricted in this area? ”

Even though the rain was foggy and his vision was bad, he still caught sight of the white figure sitting in the back seat at a glance.

“Xiao Zhang, follow her. Man Man is in that car. ”

Secretary Yang’s first thought was that Qiao man had been kidnapped, but when he thought about it, he felt that something was wrong. The few of them had only left after seeing her enter the villa. Unless something had happened that caused her to come out before she even entered the villa.

The person who had done this should be an acquaintance.

Ji Yunshen must have thought of this as well, but he could not guess who this person was.

The taxi in front seemed to have noticed that there was a car following behind them. It stepped on the accelerator and accelerated continuously.

Qiao man sat at the back and did not notice this. Her mind was full of thoughts on how to buy back the necklace at the lowest price, or how to reduce the losses.

After all, she did not have enough capital or confidence to take back what belonged to her.

It would take about an hour to drive from the city to the western suburbs. She felt a little bored, so she thought of taking out her phone to Browse Weibo and kill some time.

She pressed the lock screen button, but found that the phone was still black. It was probably out of battery.

She felt a little stuffy, so she moved to the car door and lowered the car window. Through the gap, she looked at the brightly lit city in the rain.

After more than ten minutes, a sharp and ear-piercing braking sound was heard. Qiao man felt as if the world was spinning. Her entire body was pulled forward by a force, and she crashed into the back of the chair in the front row.

The body of the car trembled as if it had collided with something. The taxi driver nimbly controlled the steering wheel, turned the car around, and drove towards another road.

Qiao man inhaled in pain. She curled up into a ball, closed her eyes, and moaned in pain.

After a long while, she finally felt better.
