The night was deep and the hour hand slid past midnight.
Outside the floor-to-ceiling window at the end of the corridor, all kinds of lawn lamps, garden landscape lamps, and Tall Street lamps were emitting dim light.
Streams of light leaked out from the gaps between the leaves and were refracted by the rain and fog. The entire world seemed to be left with only a blurry outline and could not be seen clearly.
The man's deep gaze looked out of the window. His tall and straight figure was pulled into a long and hazy figure.
His sculpture-like face sank into the deep darkness of the night, and he did not speak for a long time.
After about a minute, when he spoke again, even his voice had become a little blurry, as if it had blended into the thick darkness of the ink slab.
There was no end.
There was also no end that could be seen.
"okay, I got it. "
Just as he was about to hang up the phone, Xie Zhiqian's voice came from the other end. He said, "CEO JI, when I saw Qiao man a few days ago, I felt that her mental state was not bad. Forgive me for saying this, but is it possible that it was not Qiao Man's mental state that had a problem, but that someone had caused her mental state to have a problem? "
"For example, in food, in the water that she usually drinks... "
"Also, the emergence of a mental illness will have a process of development. For her to suddenly become so serious, it doesn't make sense medically. "
After hanging up the phone, he put his hands in his pockets and looked into the distance at the undulating mountain range that was shrouded in darkness.
After a long time, he retracted his gaze.
Lowering his head, he dialed another number.
After a few beeps, the phone was picked up. "Qingshan, I asked you to investigate Qiao Man's younger brother's car accident back then. How is it? "
On the other end of the phone, it seemed like they were having an intense exercise session in bed. The man's breath was extremely heavy, and one could vaguely hear the woman complaining softly, "Fu Qingshan, get out... "
"young master JI, you didn't know about my newlywed incident? "
Ji Yunshen rubbed his aching temples and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I'll call you tomorrow... "
"It was because the brakes failed and they collided with a private car on the coastal road. Apart from Qiao Man's brother, all five members of the family were killed. At that time, the incident was quite big and was suppressed by Qiao man's grandfather, Qin Qing. They lost quite a bit of money. Do you still remember that female celebrity who was fooling around in front of you a while ago The female celebrity who sent a court summons to your wife and was directly banned by you, her name is Tang Qian. Those people are her family."
"I remember that she has a family. "
During their interaction, he had heard Tang Qian mention something like that. His mother had also mentioned that Tang Qian lacked money because her family needed it.
"She's an actress. If her acting skills aren't outstanding, how can she get away with it? Just be careful of her! "
"Ok, you can rest. "
After hanging up the phone, he immediately dialed another number and was quickly picked up, "President Ji. "
"Yes, check the information of all the servants in the JI residence, including the drivers and bodyguards. The more detailed the better. I want to see it by tomorrow night. "
"Okay, CEO JI. "
After hanging up the phone, he took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it up. After smoking one cigarette, he smoked another. It was not until the cigarette ends were all over his feet that he felt that he had lost control.
This seemed to be the first time that he had truly lost control for Qiao Man.
He turned around and walked back. Large patches of shadows instantly surrounded him. Tonight's night seemed to be particularly dark.
It was so dark that it made one panic.
...
Qiao Man Woke up from her nightmare at three in the morning. There was no warmth left by the man beside her.
It was so late, where... ... Had he gone ? ?
Just as she was thinking, the door to the room was opened. She followed the dim light behind the figure and saw a face that was beyond recognition.
It was exactly the same as the face of the servant from back then.
She screamed and ran out of bed. In her panic, she picked up the fruit knife on the table and kept waving it at the approaching figure.
"Stop, don't come over. I will never let you hurt my child! "
Ji Yunshen stopped in his tracks. His exquisite eyebrows were slightly furrowed. "Man man, what's wrong with you? It's me! "
"What do you want? I've already said that I didn't do it on purpose. Why did you come looking for me? Go, go, or don't blame me for not being polite. "
"Okay, okay, I'll go, I'll go. put down the knife, don't hurt yourself. "
Ji Yunshen slowly stepped back and comforted her in a low voice.
The door was half open. Qiao Man's sharp voice traveled out and very quickly woke up the people in the other rooms on the floor. They rushed over to check what had happened.
Qiao man had already put down the knife, but in the next second, a few more faces of the servant from before appeared in her line of sight, and her emotions instantly went out of control.
Ji Yunshen's brows were like a mountain. He was afraid that she would hurt him, so he almost instinctively walked over to grab the knife. Qiao man closed her eyes and randomly waved the knife in her hand to protect herself and prevent others from approaching.
At the door stood Zhou Lanqing, Ji Han, the housekeeper, Aunt Li, the servant, sister Yu, and Jiang Meng, who had been called over by Ji Han to accompany her.
They stood by the door and watched as the man's tall figure calmly approached the woman who had already lost her temper. The knife that was randomly brandishing cut through the man's meticulously ironed white shirt, one cut after another.
Fresh blood quickly dripped from the wound, almost dyeing the light-colored floor red.
However, the man did not even make a sound. He merely snatched the knife from the woman's hand and tightly held her in his arms, comforting her in a low voice.
"Man man, don't be afraid. "
If it was before today, Ji Han might have dared to say with certainty that he had not fallen in love with Qiao Man.
He had only transferred the habit of being good to her to another woman.
Even if they were legally married.
Even if they had a child.
She had never believed that he would fall in love with her.
However, this scene made her feel that perhaps he had fallen in love with Qiao man, or perhaps he had fallen terribly in love with Qiao Man, but he did not know it.
After ten years of love, in the end, when they separated, which one of them was not broken and heart-wrenching.
She thought that even if this man would not marry her, he would still stand where he could see her and protect her for the rest of his life.
However, some things seemed to have finally become her one-sided play.
The low pressure spread. Auntie Li and sister Yu could not withstand the pressure and left first.
"GRANDMA JI, will brother Yunshen be okay? "?
Jiang Meng stood behind Zhou Lanqing and Ji Han. Her eyes were full of teasing, but her face was full of extreme fear. "I heard that her mother is like this when she goes crazy! It seems that mental illness is really easy to inherit! "
Zhou Lanqing's heart was already aching, but when she heard these words, her heart clenched.
"Xiao Shen, come to my room later. I have something to say. "
After saying that, she turned around and left.
Jiang Meng also turned around and left. Ji Han took another deep look at the room before following behind Zhou Lanqing and Jiang Meng and walking away.
The room returned to silence.
The knife in Qiao man's hand had already been snatched by the man's hand. The sharp blade cut through the man's palm. Fresh blood flowed down his hand and dripped onto the floor, mixing with the fresh blood on his chest It was so sharp that one could not open their eyes.
The warmth of his embrace and his unique aura had already made her calm down.
She did not even know how everything had happened just now. She raised her eyes and looked at Ji Yunshen, who was covered in injuries, in a daze.
A thousand words seemed to have turned into a simple apology.
She said, "I'm sorry, Ji Yunshen. I didn't mean it! "
"Yes, I know. "
...
There were many wounds, but they were not very deep. It had already been an hour since Qiao man had helped him bandage them.
The dark night sky had turned into a Navy Blue Curtain, dotted with twinkling stars. One look at it and one could not help but be deeply intoxicated.
It was as if water had been splashed.
It was clear and bright.
After tying up the last wound, she took the first aid kit and looked at him, who was sitting motionlessly by the bed. "Grandma is still waiting for you, you should go over quickly. "
"It doesn't matter whether I go over or not, I won't listen to her! "
Zhou Lanqing might be able to accept a woman who used a scheme to marry her grandson and successfully got pregnant, but she would never accept a woman who was mentally ill and would put her grandson in danger at any time.
Today, she was very lucky and only made a few small cuts.
But what about tomorrow And the day after that?
They were still young, and the rest of their lives were still so long. Who could say when she would worsen her illness or accidentally kill her grandson?
Not to mention others, even Qiao man herself did not dare to be sure.
If one side of the scale of a marriage tilted, it would probably be the end.
"If I really have the same illness as my mother... " her voice was slightly choked up, and her eyes were hot. "Ji Yunshen, we can't keep this child. "
She did not want her child to be treated with colored eyes after it was born.
She did not want her child to feel the pain that she had felt before. That kind of feeling was really too uncomfortable and unbearable.
"My child, I have the final say. Now go to bed and sleep. "
Qiao man looked at him through the dim light without blinking. She said, "Ji Yunshen, don't worry. I won't blame you. In the end, I snatched this marriage from someone else's hands. No matter what the consequences are, I can accept it. "
He looked at her and only said one sentence after a long time, "man man, we won't get a divorce. "
...
The next night, at seven o'clock, in the study room of the JI residence.
Ji Yunshen stood by the window and smoked. He looked at the rain and fog outside the window. Under the rain and fog, the JI residence was a blur.
A few minutes later, someone knocked on the door of the room. He didn't turn around and only said in a low voice, "please come in. "
The person who came was secretary Yang. He walked to the window and reported in a low voice, "CEO JI, we found out. It's sister Yu. "
Ji Yunshen nodded his head and gestured for him to continue.
"Tang Qian gave sister Yu 200,000 yuan and asked her to collude with the doctors at Blue Mountain Villa to give Madam Yu a drug that can cause hallucinations. If she takes this drug for a long period of time, it will aggravate the symptoms of a depressed patient. In other words, Madam Yu's current symptoms aren't caused by the drug, but rather, her depression has worsened. "
After speaking, the man did not speak for a long time. Secretary Yang asked tentatively, "President Ji, how should we deal with these two? "
The man took a deep breath of the cigarette between his fingers and said in a casual tone, "throw them into the police station. "
He did not mention the time, which meant that these two would spend the rest of their lives in prison.
"then... What about Tang Qian? " Secretary Yang asked ...
"I'll handle Tang Qian myself. You don't have to worry about her. "
"Ok, President Ji. "
The door opened and closed, leaving only the occasional sound of the man smoking in the study room. It was completely silent.
...
Ji Yunshen stood by the window for a long time. It was so long that the cigarette in his pocket was gone. Only then did he return to his bedroom on the second floor.
Qiao man was in the middle of a video call with Lin Yan. When she heard the door open, Lin Yan asked, "Your Ji Yunshen is back? "
Qiao man nodded. "Yes! "
"Then let's not chat anymore. It doesn't seem good to speak ill of him openly in front of me. Let's talk in private later. "
Ji Yunshen was about to enter the bathroom with a change of clothes when he heard Lin Yan's words. He said warmly, "Lin Yan. "
He called Lin Yan's name. Lin Yan acknowledged him and waited for him to continue.
"Tell Fu to be more restrained in bed. If you don't rest at three in the morning, be careful not to suffer from kidney failure. "
What answered him was the Beep of Lin Yan hanging up the phone.
Qiao man put down her phone and saw the smile on his handsome and refined face. She didn't know why, but she really wanted to torture him.
"Ji Yunshen, I'm hungry. I want to eat the French steak at Yanhai road. "
Ji Yunshen listened to her words with his usual expressionless face, and then said softly, "we just finished dinner half an hour ago, and you're hungry again? "
"Yes! I'm hungry! "
"It takes more than two hours to drive from here to Yanhai road, and it takes more than four hours to drive back and forth. Are you sure it's not to torture me? "
Qiao man took a deep breath and unbraid her hair. Her tone was extremely light and slow. "Oh, I don't think so, but since Mr. JI isn't too willing, then forget it. After all, it won't kill you to starve. "
As she said that, she lifted the blanket and prepared to brush up on the drama.
Recently, she had been very obsessed with love attacks, and Bai Feifei acted very well.
Her slender back had just touched the head of the soft bag bed when all the light in front of her was blocked by a tall figure. The man looked down from above, his deep black eyes quietly flowing with a myriad of emotions.
It was deep and heavy, and she could not understand most of it.
She raised her palm-sized face and looked at him quietly.
"I want to eat. You said that I'm torturing you, but I don't want to eat anymore. You're here to stir up emotions again. Why do I feel like you're the one WHO's pregnant! "
From Ji Yunshen's angle, he could see the girl's slender and elegant neck and the exquisite collarbone under her neck that he had kissed countless times.
He said, "there's a new hotel on the coastal road. The glass ceiling can see the starry sky. We'll stay there after we finish eating. We won't be coming back tonight. Pack up and we'll leave now. "
Qiao man blinked her eyes and played with her long hair on her shoulders. "But... I don't want to go anymore! "
"Well, if you're going out like this, I don't mind. "
"Why are you more impulsive than me? "
Seeing him take out a suitcase and pack up his things, Qiao man mumbled softly, "don't you know that it's very troublesome for girls to go out? "
"Well, don't you always think that I don't know how to create romance and surprises? "
The implication was that this was the romance and surprise that he had created for her?
He quickly packed his suitcase, put on his clothes, and waited for her at the door.
Qiao man felt that her skin was getting worse after she got pregnant.
She picked up the pregnant woman's makeup and smeared it on her face for a long time before she felt that her complexion was better.
