Chapter 101 It's all over

When Ji Wanwan couldn't wait for him, drowsiness overwhelmed her, and she quickly fell asleep.

The next day, she woke up suddenly from a nightmare, her forehead covered in a fine sweat.

In the dream, Kolov really died...

She quickly got up and looked around the room, but couldn't see Kolov anywhere.

Where did they go?

Did they go back to their own house?

Ji Wanwan murmured to herself, "It's good, it'll be much quieter now that they're gone."

She clutched her chest, feeling a tightness in her chest.

Ji Wanwan quickly went downstairs to the mahjong room, only to find it empty. She asked the bodyguard at the door, who said that Kolov had left in the middle of the night.

So he really is gone...

So when he realized he didn't love him, he gave up.

Ji Wanwan smiled, but the smile was more bitter than ever before.

"Once he leaves, he won't come back. After all, so many people love him."

Ji Wanwan looked dejected and walked with her head down the whole time.

She clearly wanted Kolov to leave the most, but now that he's actually gone, she feels a little uneasy.

Ji Wanwan, you're just being a jerk!

Don't develop any feelings for him; there's no future for the two of you!

She was brainwashing herself internally.

Ji Wanwan didn't look where she was going and plunged into a warm embrace, thinking it was Kolov.

Looking up, she found it was Gu Qingci.

She forced a smile and said, "Brother, what are you doing here?"

Gu Qingci could see the disappointment in her eyes and knew that Kolov had left.

After all, his status does not allow him to stay in China indefinitely.

He can give up his work, but there are some things about his family that he can't let go of.

Gu Qingci reached out and rubbed her head. She was still wearing a nightgown, and the morning chill spread through her body, making her shiver.

When I went to see Kolov just now, I didn't feel anything...

Gu Qingci draped his suit jacket over her shoulders.

"You're dressed so lightly, I'm afraid you'll be cold."

"I..." Ji Wanwan's mind was in turmoil. She suddenly realized that her behavior was foolish.

She dreamt that he died, and she panicked.

But those were all dreams, and she didn't understand why she had come out to find him.

“He’s already gone,” Gu Qingci said.

Ji Wanwan pretended to be nonchalant: "He's gone, so he's gone. I couldn't be happier for him to leave."

"Wanwan, forget about him and start a new life," Gu Qingci coaxed gently, her eyes filled with doting affection and without any ulterior motives.

With Kolov not around, he felt he could handle their relationship.

"I understand. I want to go back to Z City." That's where her home is.

She was going back to find Si Shu too.

Moreover, with Kolov gone, she can live her peaceful life.

No one will suddenly take her away again, and no one can hold her captive. The past will gradually fade away with time.

Gu Qingci: "I'll go back with you."

Ji Wanwan shook her head: "Brother, you have your own life too, there's no need to always accommodate me."

Without Ji Wanwan, his life wouldn't be like this.

Gu Qingci lowered her eyes, her fingers unconsciously curling up. Kolov had left her, and she wanted to leave him too.

"Okay, I'll send someone to take you back."

Ji Wanwan gave a faint "hmm": "I'll leave a month from now, once you've recovered."

There's only a month and a half until Chinese New Year, which is the perfect time to be by Si Shu's side.

After saying that, Ji Wanwan walked towards her room, her steps heavy.

No wonder Kolov kept begging for her forgiveness yesterday, saying he wanted to go back with her.

It turned out that it was time for him to leave.

Everything has a traceable pattern...

Ji Wanwan lay on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.

It seemed that everything had come to an end, and she was ready to return to her original life.

Kolov will also disappear from her world.

It's so good, I don't have to live in fear every day anymore...

Although she feels empty inside right now, Ji Wanwan will soon forget about it.

Then I can find a job and live a good old age with my grandmother in the village.

Ji Wanwan took out her phone and called Si Shu. This time, she could finally promise to go back.

Previously, due to Kolov's influence, Ji Wanwan couldn't guarantee when she could go back.

The call was answered quickly, and Si Shuwen's gentle and kind voice came from the other end.

"Wanwan, what's wrong?"

Ji Wanwan said with joy, "Grandma, I can go back next month, and then I can stay by your side."

Si Shu's laughter reached Ji Wanwan.

"Okay, Grandma is at home, waiting for you to come back."

"Okay, please wait for me for another month."

She would leave immediately once Gu Qingci recovered, within a month.

"Okay, I'll make your favorite meatballs for you then."

"That's wonderful." She hadn't eaten in a long time either.

"Wanwan, the people who took care of me have left. Did you call them?"

Si Shu's health is much better now; she just needs to have regular check-ups from time to time.

The bodyguards left without saying goodbye, and she didn't even have a chance to thank them.

Ji Wanwan was stunned for a moment. If even the person taking care of Si Shu had been called away, then it was probably true that she wouldn't be coming back.

"Yes, I will personally go back to take care of you then."

Gu Hai paid off her student loan and gave her enough money for the two of them to live on.

Ji Wanwan will open a small shop in the village by then, and she has already begun to fantasize about their wonderful life together.

"Wanwan, I can take care of myself, I just haven't had a chance to thank them yet."

After all, those people had taken care of her for more than half a year, and they even paid for her medical expenses.

“I’ll tell them then…” Ji Wanwan began.

I probably won't have the chance to say it anymore, and I'll never see you again.

"Okay, those young men are all very good people."

"Okay, Grandma."

The two chatted for a while longer, but Ji Wanwan never asked about Gu Hai, and Si Shu didn't say anything either.

Because Si Shu knew that Ji Wanwan was currently with the Gu family and needed their help, she didn't want things to get too awkward.

Ji Wanwan hung up the phone, and it slipped onto the pillow.

It's all over now.

but……

There's still one culprit who hasn't been dealt with!

The boss is directly deceiving this fraudulent company.

She said back then that the first thing she would do when she came back was to solve this problem.

I almost forgot about her.

That afternoon, Ji Wanwan contacted Gu's legal department through Gu Yunting.

The Gu Group filed a lawsuit against the small company that had been swindled by Boss Zhi.

A week later, the lawsuit was successful.

Boss, a con artist, faced huge compensation claims. His assets were insufficient to pay off all his debts, and he eventually declared bankruptcy.

Some of them also ended up in prison.

After Ji Wanwan learned that she wasn't the only victim, she was considered lucky; some were trafficked to Myanmar and tortured to death.

After Ji Wanwan came out of the police station, Gu Qingci was leaning against the car door waiting for her, his long legs crossed and his head slightly lowered.

Upon seeing Ji Wanwan, he immediately went to greet her.

"Satisfied?"

"Hmm, do you think I'm stupid?"

She felt stupid for getting scammed while looking for a job and causing so much trouble.

Besides, Gu Qingci is so rich, this behavior is probably even more foolish in his eyes.

Gu Qingci gently ruffled her hair, his fingertips still resting on the top of her head.

"You're not stupid. I'll protect you from now on. No one will be able to bully you."

"Having an older brother feels pretty good."

I will protect you for the rest of my life.

"No need for that, you should hurry up and find me a sister-in-law!"

"..."
