Wild Imagination

Just as Leng Jin had expected, things were moving in a bad direction. After listening to Leng Jin's explanation, An Qi lowered her head. Then, sudden bursts of laughter could be heard.

At first, the laughter was not very audible, so Leng Jin actually thought that he might have misheard it. It was only when An Qi looked up and laughed that he was sure that the laughter had really come from her.

"An Qi, are you okay?" Leng Jin asked nervously as he rose from his seat and came before An Qi.

An Qi stopped smiling as she felt him approaching.

Leng Jin then asked her, "An Qi, what happened to you? I really didn't remember that a little girl was kidnapped with me! Only in recent years did I occasionally begin to see some images resurface in my head. I guess those are probably from the kidnapping case!"

Leng Jin did not dare to touch An Qi again at this time, as he feared that she would have an intense emotional response. At this moment, An Qi's phone rang. Her ringtone was a recording of An Yufei's voice from when she was first learning how to speak. Though it was unable to comprehend what she was saying, it sounded very pleasant.

An Qi held her breath for three seconds, while deliberately suppressing her inner resentment, then answered the phone call with a bright voice and a smile. "Yufei, mummy is coming back soon! Are you afraid to sleep in the dark alone? Oh? Really? You are still in contact with Janie and others? Umm... Yufei, can mummy call you back later?"

After An Qi answered her daughter's phone call and heard her voice, all of the anger in her heart disappeared. When An Qi put down the phone, Leng Jin could clearly detect the change in her demeanor.

He tried to take An Qi's hand carefully, and once he saw that she had no intention of resisting him, he breathed a sigh of relief, sat beside An Qi, and placed a glass of water in her hand.

He then said, "Drink some water. It will help calm you down."

As soon as the first sip of water entered An Qi's throat, it was hard for An Qi to swallow it. An Qi frowned instantly, knowing that this was because she it was hard for her to accept the information from Leng Jin. Regardless, she still forced herself to drink all of the water.

"Do you mean to say that your parents kept the news regarding the kidnapping case from surfacing, which is why no one ever knew about the car accident during the kidnapping?" An Qi asked in shock.

Leng Jin nodded.

"So, that means that they must not even have known that I was there, right?" she then asked.

Leng Jin nodded again.

"In other words, your parents thought that their actions would only affect the Leng Group's listing, not others?" she wondered aloud.

"Yes. An Qi, it may be hard for you to believe that, but because of my amnesia, my parents really didn't know anything about the kidnapping. Even now, I still don't know the reason behind the kidnapping. If I was their only target, then why were you there?" Leng Jin's words made An Qi ponder this as well.

All her attention had been focused on her mother's car accident, causing her to ignore the fact that it seemed that she had been kidnapped for no reason! This immediately led her to wonder... Why did the kidnappers only call the Leng Family to ask for ransom money?

"At that time, I was very young. Also, I was deeply saddened by my mother's death. The thing that left the deepest impression on me was… The ear-piercing emergency brake sound… And my mother, lying in a pool of blood…" An Qi's voice choked as she recalled the incident.

Fortunately, Leng Jin was still by her side, comforting her by allowing her to lay her head on his shoulder. Watching them from the other side of the glass window was Sheng Jie, who had just picked up the telescope that Leng Yuchen had shattered, and as he was looking through the broken telescope image, like a kaleidoscope, it was a heart-wrenching scene.

But, at the same time, he knew that if the second young master was to see this scene, he would definitely find a way to force his brother go back to France. After all, it was not the first time that something like this had happened. In Sheng Jie's impression, the mastermind behind the first young master's being forced to study in France, was most certainly the second young master.

"What are you doing here? Boss Leng asked me to come and get you!" Hearing a shout from behind him, Sheng Jie dropped his telescope on the ground in surprise. The poor telescope was completely broken this time, rendering it instantly useless.

"Hey kid, what's your name?" Sheng Jie's thoughts were suddenly interrupted by the newbie who had just rushed up to him. He was upset, so he reached out his hand to lift up the name badge that was on the newbie's shirt.

"Shi Zhiwen..." Sheng Jie muttered.

His first impression of Shi Zhiwen had not been very good, and as a result, he had often intentionally targeted Shi Zhiwen. But, he never would have imagined that the two of them would become partners in the future. He had to sigh at the irony of it all.

Back in the restaurant, most of the diners had already left, leaving only two waiters, who were busy cleaning up. After her busy day, in which An Qi had finally learned the truth about her mother, she was so tired that she leaned her head on her Leng Jin's shoulder and fell asleep.

When the waiter was cleaning up their table, he accidentally clinked some silverware. Although Leng Jin stretched out his slender finger and put it on his lips, giving him a "Shh..." it was a pity that the noise had still startled An Qi awake.

When she opened her eyes and saw Strolling Through Tokyo, she thought that she had gone back in time to her school days with Yu Hao.

"You're awake?" The warm voice of the Leng Jin suddenly sounded in An Qi's head, and she was so startled, she jolted away from leaning on his shoulder like a scared cat.

An Qi had a good nap, and when she got up, Leng Jin could clearly see a glimmer of dried saliva that had been left on his shoulder. It was this sound sleep that had made An Qi feel a little dizzy when she first stood up.

"You, I..." This reaction was probably due to her past experience of losing her virginity in a hotel, but An Qi quickly covered her chest with one hand and pointed at Leng Shi with her other hand, then stared at him as she whimpered in horror.

Leng Jin raised his hands above his head, giving her a gesture as if you say, "nothing happened between us!" An Qi took this opportunity to look around, only then finally coming to her senses and realizing that it was Leng Jin who was beside her.

An Qi instantly grabbed her forehead and bent down, as she felt nauseous all of a sudden. At this time, Leng Jin knelt down before An Qi, trying to assess her pain.

When the waiter came back, the suggestive postures of the two made his wild imagination stir. "Miss and Mister, what are you doing?"
