Chapter 284

The aftershock of the red wine made the entire world seem to spin. After closing her eyes, the feeling became even more intense.

Her ears were constantly ringing from her cell phone. She had guessed that she would call Jiang Meng, and even thought that she would call her grandmother. However, the moment the call connected, she heard a sweet and soft voice from the other end The Petite figure on the SOFA could not help but tense up.

It was actually Xiao Meng.

“Man man… ”

Qiao man propped up her elbows with one hand on her crossed legs and looked coldly at Ji Han, who was beside her with her eyes closed “Yes, it’s me. I heard that you have something that you’ve been wanting me to bring to Miss Ji Han. She’s right beside me now. If you have anything you want to say, you can say it now. ”

Xiao Meng sat in front of the dressing table and was about to put on her lipstick when she stopped. The hand holding the thin phone turned white almost instantly.

Her breathing was chaotic for two seconds before it quickly returned to normal. “Yes, I do have something to say to her, but I want to say too much. I might not be able to explain it clearly over the phone. How about this, tell me your current location and I’ll rush over. ”

For more than a month, she had been practically isolated from the world and was trapped in Ji Yunshen’s house.

Every day, she would think about the incident before her sister hanged herself. She would also rummage through the things left behind by her sister. However, she accidentally found a few photos of Ji Han and a strange man in her sister’s locked drawer.

Although the photos were taken far away, judging from the man’s height and appearance, it was not Ji Yunshen, Fu Qingshan, or Lu Yubai.

Then who was this man Why did her sister lock these photos as a secret?

She had thought of many reasons for her sister’s suicide, such as Lu Yubai’s indifference, and his unwavering love for Ji Han for years. However, she never thought that she would end up in a dead end because she was jealous of another woman.

During those sleepless nights, had her sister used these photos to threaten Lu Yubai or Ji Han because of the crazy hatred she had for that woman… …

She did not dare to think further. She was afraid that her words would come true, but she had to think further.

If Ji Yunshen had not come over to interrogate her sister’s whereabouts and eavesdropped on his phone conversation, she might have pretended to be deaf and dumb and waited for an opportunity to make a move.

But who asked her to hear it?

“Ziye, private room 1307. ”

After Qiao man heard it, her delicate and soft voice traveled through the radio waves, word by word, extremely clear.

The phone that Xiao Meng used could only be used to answer calls. She had tried countless times to contact Qiao man, wanting to talk to her about these things, but she had not succeeded.

Until late at night the day before yesterday, a call came in.

The memories came to an abrupt end. Xiao Meng walked to the window and glanced at the tall bodyguard standing at the door. Her tone was still indifferent, almost without any fluctuation. “But the premise is that the bodyguard at the door and my personal freedom. ”

If Ji Yunshen did not let her leave, she would not be able to leave. Everything that had happened before would seem futile.

“It doesn’t matter. He’s with me. If anyone else stops you, I’ll settle it. ”

“Okay! ”

Just as the communication was cut off, the dark cherry blossom wooden door was pushed open by a tall figure. He walked against the orange light and walked towards her with a cup of warm water in his hand. He strode steadily towards her.

After a few big steps, the man handed the cup to her. The girl did not take it. Instead, she looked up at him. “I’m so tired. I don’t want to drink by myself. ”

The man didn’t care. He moved over and sat next to her. He stretched out his strong, iron-like arms and pulled her into his arms. Then, he fed the cup to her mouth. The girl took a few sips and frowned. The man understood and took the Cup away He put it on the faces that were colored by the lights.

“You don’t want to drink anymore? ”

“Yes, it’s not as good as the water at home. ”

“…”

“okay, then I’ll drink it when I get home. ”

Ji Han opened her eyes, which were made of gurgling water, only after she heard the sound of the door opening. Her dark, clean eyes were full of his reflection when he walked over.

It was as if in an instant, the world in her eyes was only him.

As she watched him walk over, the tall figure sat next to Qiao man, gently coaxing and carefully serving her. It really felt as if a lifetime had passed.

Or rather, it was a completely unfamiliar feeling.

It was as if this was the first day she had met him, or as if the past ten years had never left a trace in the bottom of his heart. That was why when he turned around, he had completely forgotten about her, leaving her standing on the spot For the sake of the beauty he had lost, he was endlessly sad and lingering.

It took him a lot of effort before he withdrew his gaze from the two people beside him. Then, he leaned over, took the wine bottle, filled up the empty glass in front of him, brought it to his mouth, and drank it all in one gulp.

There were still two months before her birthday.

In her nearly twenty-one years of life, this seemed to be the first and only time that she wanted to get completely drunk.

The red wine was rather strong. After drinking the entire glass, her stomach suddenly felt like it was on fire.

Ji Han staggered to her feet and looked at the man and woman sitting next to each other through the dark orange light. “sorry to disturb you, but I need to go to the bathroom. ”

She was wearing nearly ten centimeters of high heels, and because she was dizzy, she walked a little unsteadily. She had only taken a few steps when she fell heavily to the ground.

She was in a terrible state, and it was probably impossible to describe her current embarrassment.

Just as she was about to stand up despite the pain in her ankle, she heard a cold female voice behind her. “Ah Shen, go help her up. ”

Now, unless she gave her permission, would he be able to get close to her?

In that case, the little bit of pity and charity that she allowed him to give her, to her, was also the pain of thousands of arrows piercing through her heart.

“No need to trouble yourself. I can do it myself. ”

Actually, she was already very drunk. This sobriety was something that she had forced herself to endure.

Struggling to stand up, she tried her best to stabilize her body. Almost as if she was escaping, she opened the door of the private room and walked out.

She isolated herself from that sad world. It was as if even breathing became smoother.

…

Xiao Meng walked out of the house where she and her sister lived very smoothly. The bodyguard at the door only made a phone call and asked Ji Yunshen for instructions. He did not stop her like before and walked out of the courtyard. There was even a taxi waiting for her.

The lights were dim. When she walked over, she only knocked on the car window. The driver immediately started the car, indicating that she could leave immediately.

She did not think too much about it. She opened the car door at the back and sat inside.

After getting into the car, she took the phone and called Qiao Man. She told her that she had successfully gotten into the taxi and would be there in about twenty minutes.

Qiao man said that she understood and hung up the phone.

Ji Yunshen was addicted to smoking, so he went out of the private room to the bathroom to smoke. Just as he reached the corner, he bumped into Ji Han who was walking out of the bathroom.

She walked with her head lowered, and because she had drunk a lot of alcohol, when she realized that there was a tall wall of people opposite her, she had already bumped into it.

Ji Yunshen used the most gentlemanly action a man could do to a woman. He reached out and held her waist, preventing her from falling.

After Ji Han stood firm, he pushed him away and said thank you. Then, he bypassed him and continued walking in the direction of the private room.

Ji Yunshen’s exquisite brows furrowed slightly. It was not because of her angry actions and tone, but because of her drunkenness.

“Han ‘er… ”

Ji Han could no longer sense whether it was one step, two steps, or three steps. She only knew that when she heard the man’s cold and deep voice coming from behind her, her heart was still beating wildly It was as if they had never been separated.

“Gu Xichen may not be the best choice for you, but he is definitely not your compromise. He is willing to pamper you and treat you well, so you should try to think about it. Perhaps you will be happier than anyone else. ”

Forget about her, push her away, and now use this method to make her forget about him?

“Thank you, I’ll definitely be happier than all of you. ”

After saying that, she did not stay any longer and hurriedly walked away.

The man stood where he was for two seconds before walking into the bathroom. There was no change in his expression.

…

Ji Han went to the front desk and ordered a cup of sobering tea. She sat in the lobby on the first floor and sobered up for a while before she got up and returned to the private room on the 13th floor.

Just as she reached the door, she heard a woman’s shrill scream from the half-open door. “What did you say? Okay, okay, I got it. I’ll rush over now. ”

Qiao man grabbed the camel-colored windbreaker on the SOFA. Her footsteps were slightly flustered. The man beside her pulled her back and said in a low voice, “what’s wrong, man man? ”

“Just now, the hospital’s emergency department called. They said that Xiao Meng was in a car accident and is now in the emergency room. ”

“Don’t worry, I’ll go with you. ”

“Okay! ”

Ji Han had already moved to the door and stopped in her tracks. Xiao Meng Car Accident How could it be so coincidental?

Qiao man’s footsteps were messy. When she opened the door of the private room, she saw Ji Han standing there in a daze. Her voice was cold and indifferent. “Ji Han, Xiao Meng was in a car accident and is now in the emergency room at the hospital. Will you follow me there and wait for her to wake up, or do you want to go home directly? ”

The accident had not been fully investigated, so she could not jump to the conclusion that someone had deliberately caused the accident or wanted to cover it up so that they could silence her. However, this matter could already be 100% confirmed that it had something to do with Ji Han, even if she did not do it.. Even if she did not know about it.

“I drank too much and my head hurts a little. I want to go back first. If there’s anything, you can call me at any time. I’m a living person, so I can’t run away. ”

“Yes, there are some things that I’m not in a hurry to do. ”

Qiao man smiled and walked past her. The Hem of her windbreaker brushed against the Hem of her windbreaker. The small sound of friction seemed to be magnified countless times in an instant, stimulating her eardrums.

Hopefully, she was thinking too much. Hopefully… …

…

When she rushed to the hospital, the doctor had already given her a third notice of critical illness.

Even if a person could be saved, it was very likely that they would become a vegetable or die of brain death.

Qiao Man’s back was leaning against the cold wall. For a moment, she only felt that her hands and feet were cold, and she could not even move.

What a terrifying method, what a terrifying scheme.

She did not even dare to imagine the scene of the car accident.

Ji Yunshen was standing in the smoking area, smoking. From Afar, he could see her leaning against the wall, not moving at all, standing there in a daze.

He reached into his pocket and took out his phone. He dialed a number, and after a brief beep, the person on the other end picked up. “CEO JI. ”

“check the surveillance footage of Yunshan Villa and find the taxi driver. ”

“Okay, CEO JI. ”

The car had flipped over on the second ring road’s viaduct and crashed down from the viaduct. At that time, the driver was no longer in the car and Xiao Meng was the only person in the car.

Obviously, the driver had knocked Xiao Meng unconscious in the blind spot of the surveillance footage and then used something to control the accelerator. The car continued to drive forward until it hit the guardrail of the viaduct. Only then did the car flip over.

He rubbed his aching temples. There was only one person who could have thought of such terrifying schemes and methods — Jiang Meng.

The last time he drove to the JI residence late at night to look for Han ‘er, he had wanted to talk to her about Jiang Meng. However, he was chased out by his grandmother and did not say anything.

In the past, because of Han ‘er, he had tolerated her time and time again. This time, he simply didn’t change his character.

If this continued, he was afraid that one day Han ‘er would be instigated by her and become a second Jiang Meng.

He threw the cigarette butt in his hand into the trash can at the side. Then, he strode over to the girl who was standing there in a daze.

Hearing the sound of the man’s leather shoes on the ground, she raised her head and looked over in a daze and helplessness. After a few seconds, she recovered from her sluggish state.

“It’s getting late. You should go back first. You still have to take a plane to leave Lin city at night. Don’t waste time. ”

It was already two o’clock in the afternoon. His plane was at seven o’clock in the evening. Excluding the time he had to return to the JI residence to bid farewell to his family and the time he had wasted on the road, he only had less than three hours left. There was really no need to waste it here After all, it was already like this. There was no way to change what he did or did not do.

“I thought that you had already tacitly agreed to continue following me regarding Lin Yan’s matter. Moreover, do you think I’m the kind of man who can easily get rid of a woman after she casually uses me? Or do you think it’s only right for me to help you? ”

She knew that after having a child as a bond, it would be very difficult for the two of them to truly separate. Even if they did not talk about love and only used each other, he would not let go of her.

This was an excuse, and also the only reason why he would not let go.

Qiao Man’s hands that hung by her side could not help but twist together. Her voice was a little ethereal as she said, “since ancient times, it’s difficult to have all the beauties in the world. Mr. Ji, be careful not to fall into the hands of a beauty. ”

“Haven’t you heard of it? Even if you die a ghost under a peony, you’ll still be a romantic? ”

Qiao man averted her gaze from his deep gaze. “I’ve only heard of beauties who cause trouble. ”

“even if it’s a FEMME fatale, I’m willing to do it. ”

“Suit Yourself. ” The girl lowered her eyes and looked at the shadow on the ground. “But the premise is that I won’t go to the capital with you. ”

Since she couldn’t sever the relationship with him, she would do it slowly. After all, she didn’t lack time.

“Sure! ”

She didn’t expect that the man would agree to her so readily. The girl widened her eyes and stared at him without blinking, as if she couldn’t believe it.

The man reached out his hand in his pocket and propped it on the side of her head, looking down at her fair and slender face. “There’s no other way. If you don’t want to go to the capital, I can only stay in forest city to accompany you. ”

“How is that possible? ”

That was the order of command from the leader of the political forces that he supported. It was equivalent to the weight of the future president. How could he not go just because he said so?

“everyone has half a year of maternity leave. I applied for an extra three months, which means that I have nine months to accompany you until the child is born. ”

With a child, she would have new ties. When that time came, even if she wanted to leave, she could not leave.

This man had always been strategizing.

“I don’t need you to accompany me. ”

Qiao man felt that the man’s breathing was getting closer and closer, even bringing with it a scorching heat. She tried her best to shrink back, but her voice was as cold as ever. “I will take care of myself. ”

“Yes, man man, you know that I’m not discussing this with you, so you only have two choices now. One is to go to the capital with me. Although it’s a little strange, I will always be by your side. The other is that I will stay with you until the child is born, and then our family of three will go to the capital. ”

The man’s handsome face gradually enlarged in front of her eyes. She tilted her head and at the same time stretched out her hand to support the man’s chest, preventing him from continuing to come closer. “okay, I got it. You go back a little. ”

“Okay, okay! ”

The man stepped back and untied the encirclement around her.

Although the breathing was much smoother, his mind was still numb, and he had almost no ability to think.

Because the surgery took a longer time, Qiao man’s low blood sugar was just a little better, so it was not suitable for her to stand and sit for a long time. In order to prevent her from having a repeat attack, Ji Yunshen forcibly took her away from the hospital.

On the way, a car phone came in. He pressed the answer button, and in the next second, the soft and sweet voice of a girl came over.

“Ah Shen, I have something to tell you. Where are you now? I’ll go find you. ”

It was Ji Han. Her voice was no longer lazy and Hoarse after being drunk, only trembling and broken.

“Wait for me at the old house. I’ll drive back to find you later. ”

“Okay! ”

After hanging up the phone, he habitually glanced at the passenger seat. The girl had already closed her eyes, as if she had entered a state of sleep.

Before he could look away, he saw her open her bright red lips and enunciate clearly. “I’ll go with you. Don’t you have to tell grandma and the others that you won’t be going to Beijing for the time being? ”

“I thought you didn’t want to see her now. ”

“Yeah, I don’t want to see you either. ”

“…”

“unfortunately, the first person you’ll see when you wake up in the morning in this lifetime will only be me. ”

Qiao Man,”…”

…

Half an hour later, the smoke-gray Bentley parked steadily in front of the parking lot of the JI residence.

The weather these two days had been pretty good, especially the clouds in the evening. Almost the entire sky had been dyed a faint red, bringing with it the unique beauty of winter.

The man got out of the car with his long legs, walked around the front of the car, and walked to the door of the passenger seat. He opened the door of the passenger seat for her very gently, and before he could reach out his hand, he heard the girl’s beautiful voice ringing in the evening wind.

She said, “Ji Yunshen, I really want to know, between me, Ji Han, and grandma, what will you choose? ”

Although she didn’t know the whole story, she could already guess a part of it.

Ji Yunshen had been holding back and didn’t say anything. Except for that person, he didn’t want to move, nor could he move. There was probably still a little hope.

He hoped that it would be the last time.

However, some things always backfired.

“You never have to choose, and you don’t have to choose. ”

“really? ” Qiao man tilted her head and smiled. Her shoulder-length hair floated in the air, and a few strands covered her eyes and eyebrows. “But this is not a multiple choice question, but a single choice question. Believe me, you have to choose one in the end. ”

“Can I take it that you’re gloating? ”

Qiao man withdrew the smile on her delicate face, and only a faint smile appeared on her face. “If you think that this understanding can make your heart feel even worse, then just take it that I’m gloating. ”

“If I feel bad, are you happy? ”

“To be more precise, I’m very happy. After all, life is already so unpleasant. With you accompanying me, I’ll instantly feel at ease, the sky is high and the earth is wide… MMM. ”

She was still chattering non-stop, but in the next second, her mouth and nose were occupied by a faint nicotine smell, and it even became more intense.

His kiss was very fierce and heavy. It carried a unique aggression and tyranny in the past, and even carried a hint of deliberate bullying and trampling.

His hands easily wrapped around her waist, which was not big enough to hold her, and through the thick layers of clothes, he wantonly massaged her waist. For a moment, she even thought that he would do that to her.. But just as this thought rushed out of her head, he stopped the kiss.

Her entire body went soft, and she was brought into his arms. “Man Man, do you know, intentionally speaking and doing things to torture someone, it often makes people think that she cares more. ”

“You might be thinking too much! ”

The girl’s voice was soft after being bullied, and it even made people’s hearts soften.

“Is that so? But I feel that I’m thinking too little. If I thought a little more, today might not be like this. ”

If he had not given her that grand wedding, if he had treated her the way he had treated her in the past, perhaps they would have been able to live a long and slow life together, reaching the end of each other’s lives.

Unfortunately, there was no medicine for regret in this world.

…

In the room at the end of the second floor of the JI residence.

Ji Han sat by the window in a daze. It was not until the smoke-gray Bentley entered her line of sight that she was pulled back from her endless contemplation.

She watched as the man got out of the car and personally opened the door for the girl in the front passenger seat. The two seemed to have quarreled for a while, and then the man bent down and kissed the girl’s Chattering Lips.

In the past few years, Love was the entirety of her life to her.

Even though she looked fearful and humble like dust.

But the more casual she looked, the more unforgettable it was.

Meng Meng often told her to give it a try, but she was always hesitating.

In addition to Gu Xichen’s threat, she would often feel sad between the two of them, as if she was constantly being pulled, unable to make a decision.

She looked at the phone screen in her hand that had not completely dimmed. Suddenly, she felt that the pain, sadness, and unbearable feelings in the past were all a joke.

What was so hard to choose It was already the worst case scenario, so she was not afraid that it would be even worse.

Then, she would take a gamble. Since she had already lost it, she was not afraid of losing it again.

Ji Han smiled coldly, stood up from the window, stood up and walked out of the room.

The time when she opened the door and Ji Yunshen led Qiao man into the living room was almost at the same time.

She could clearly hear Zhou Lanqing’s delighted voice coming from the stairway. “Xiao Shen, why are you back… ”

Her mood had obviously dropped as she spoke, probably because she saw Qiao man behind her.

She walked over and walked down a few steps, looking at the three people who were standing opposite each other.
