Someone invested heavily to assemble a television drama crew, designating actors and a script, determined to use top-tier resources to interpret an extremely simple story.
It was a low-blood-...
Infinitely close to the day of happiness
Xuan Jiazhuo sat down uninvited, but Bing Jie was still standing behind the sofa, his eyes lowered, not knowing what he was thinking. After Xuan Jiazhuo calmed down, he stared at him and said, "So, you still won't let her go?"
Bing Jie suddenly raised his head, stared at her for a few seconds, then suddenly laughed contemptuously. He walked around the sofa, saying, "If she hadn't had the accident, I wouldn't have let her leave the hospital at all. Is she happy after coming to see you? I don't think so."
If Qi Jixin's leaving him in the hospital was a pain that Bing Jie could not overcome, then the accident she had in front of Xuan Jiazhuo and the loss of her memory were the knot in his heart that Xuan Jiazhuo did not want to mention.
The two men who met late at night both knew each other's death knell. Now that Bing Jie had made the matter clear, it was clear that he was determined to fight to the death.
Xuan Jiazhuo sighed helplessly. She took a deep look at the man opposite her with a cruel and arrogant look in his eyes. Suddenly, she felt exhausted, and the anger that had supported her to rush here gradually died down.
"...Don't try to find out about her past few years from me. I won't tell you." After making his stance clear, Xuan Jiazhuo gritted his teeth and said, "No matter how much you loved each other before, Bing Jie, you have to admit it whether you want to or not. Those feelings have long been worn away by repeated disappointments."
Bing Jie's eyes became colder and his hands on the armrests clenched quietly. Xuan Jiazhuo knew that this was treading on his minefield, but she still decided to continue.
"If you ask me, losing those memories is like giving her a chance to be reborn. Are you going to hold her captive and let her suffer in your hands for both of her lives?"
"you……"
Bing Jie couldn't bear it anymore and interrupted her, but Xuan Jiazhuo insisted on revealing the last layer of the truth.
Recalling that time, Xuan Jiazhuo was heartbroken and choked up several times. After she achieved success in her career, she and Qi Jixin both thought that the most difficult days of their lives were over. But after witnessing her dire situation with her own eyes, Xuan Jiazhuo repeatedly lamented in her heart, wondering why God had done this to her...
Now, it's time to let Bing Jie know the torment she went through at that time.
"She really loves you, she loves you terribly."
Bing Jie thought she was going to curse, but the fact that she suddenly said these heartfelt words in a somewhat dejected manner set off alarm bells in his heart. He vaguely felt that there was a more naked truth hidden in these words...
It is said that one feels homesick when close to home, and he also began to feel a little timid. During those last chaotic days, he never had the chance to know what Qi Jixin had gone through to change from his wife who was waiting for childbirth peacefully to a stranger who was only thinking about escaping and resisting.
During those last few days, she was like a hedgehog, wary of him.
Bing Jie also wanted to comfort her, but he had no other choice at the time. In his dreams over the years, he always wondered if he had made a better choice. The answer was always cruel.
He had never felt so helpless before, like a lone boat lost in a storm, drifting on the sea for several years until he got news from her again, which gave him a direction to return home.
Unfortunately, when we met again, everything had changed.
Bing Jie was eager to know the truth, but he was also shocked by Xuan Jiazhuo's words. He almost used up all his strength to calm his trembling voice and replied to her: "I thought that when she decided to leave, she no longer loved me."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xuan Jiazhuo looked at him with great pity and told him the cruel truth.
"Yes, she certainly didn't love you anymore then."
Bing Jie couldn't hide his loneliness and chuckled. His back was not as straight as before. He tilted his head to look at the dark night scene in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, waiting silently for Xuan Jiazhuo's next words.
"She gave your relationship one last chance, which is your child. If the child is alive, she will really stay for the child."
Seeing that he didn't respond, Xuan Jiazhuo continued to say that for a paranoid and cruel person like Bing Jie, she decided to abandon all intrigues and put all her calculations out in the open, otherwise, she would not be able to withstand this man's various means.
"You and I both know the outcome. The child wasn't saved, and she no longer has any attachment to you. Even if you rushed back the next day, I want to ask, how could someone who had planned to leave a thousand times stay because of a few words from you?"
"Besides, almost everything you said to her at that time was coercion, right?"
The last sentence was almost the sharpest knife that pierced the heart. Bing Jie no longer avoided looking at her, but the pain on his face made Xuan Jiazhuo feel a little helpless.
When the two of them were a perfect match, she sincerely wished them well, but why has it come to this?
"Why did she lose all her trust in me?"
Bing Jie's unwilling question coincided with Xuan Jiazhuo's thoughts, which made her heart move slightly. After hesitating for a long time, she decided to tell him about Qi Jixin's original predicament.
"A year before she escaped, when you weren't with her, a woman claiming to be your childhood sweetheart came looking for her. Her tactics were rather crude, initially using her status to pressure her. But then, you couldn't handle it, and she would always accompany you on every business trip..."
Xuan Jiazhuo told her everything she knew. Qi Jixin did not tell her the man's name, and she could not remember his name either. She could only stare at Bing Jie without blinking, trying to see if he knew about this.
"She should have told me these things, I will explain to her..." Bing Jie was a little confused. He never expected that Hua Shaoshi would take action so early.
Xuan Jiazhuo was so angry that he almost jumped up from the sofa, but he still replied to him with gritted teeth.
"Then you should ask your parents. They haven't disliked Ji Xin for a long time. Every time she wants to ask you, you always go on a business trip for no apparent reason, and then Ji Xin is called away to give her a lecture. Even when she meets me, they always find fault with her."
The two people sitting opposite each other knew that if it were anyone else, they would immediately rush to Bing Jie to expose the evil deeds of these people. Even Qi Jixin, who was still shining in the entertainment industry, would do the same.
But at that time, under Bing Jie's protection, she shed all her claws. It can be said that Bing Jie was everything to her...
At that time, Bing Jie actually had a vague feeling that Qi Jixin was not in a good state, but he enjoyed that kind of infinite attachment very much and was quite confident that he could protect her, so she really endured it for nearly a year.
Bing Jie's head buzzed. He frowned and closed his eyes in pain, pressing his throbbing temples with his hands. Regret and helplessness surged up and down. Finally, he could only speak helplessly and tell about the surprise that happened a few years ago.
"I didn't find out about my parents and Hua Shaoshi bullying her until she was nine months pregnant. I wanted to take her away that night, but she was probably too emotional that day and went to the hospital because she felt unwell."
During the first few days of her convalescence, he almost stayed by her bedside. However, even with him by her side, Qi Jixin would cry at every turn and almost begged him to take her abroad. Naturally, Bing Jie was unwilling to leave.
But in the next few days, her spirits recovered very well. In addition, she urged repeatedly, and the doctor said that the due date would be some time later, so Bing Jie had to leave immediately to arrange accommodation abroad.
"I did everything according to her instructions, doing everything myself, and I even chose the city where you settled." Thinking back, Bing Jie smiled softly, as if he had returned to those days when happiness was so close. "She didn't let me tell you in advance because she wanted to give you a surprise. It should have been a surprise."
But as soon as he left the country, Qi Jixin's condition took a turn for the worse. He hurried back home, but his wife, who had always loved him, was no longer there. She looked at him with only disgust and alienation in her eyes.
At that time, he only wanted to keep her by his side, no matter what means he used. As a result, the situation worsened and eventually collapsed completely...
Bing Jie's eyes suddenly became sharp. Ever since the day Qi Jixin disappeared, he had completely drawn a line between himself and his parents and Hua Shaoshi. But now he suddenly remembered his parents who had covered the sky with one hand.
He arranged all his own people in the hospital. He had always suspected that something was wrong with her sudden labor. In addition, after he returned, she was extremely weak, but she was still able to break free from the heavy guards he had placed... Now that he thought about it, perhaps it was all the work of his parents.
Thinking of this, Bing Jie felt that the blood in his body was boiling and flowing backwards. It was time to go back and confront those two old guys.
It took him several years to completely break away from his parents' control. Without their support, he grew into a towering tree on his own. Now, after getting some truth from Xuan Jiazhuo, he was ready to go back and confront them.
Xuan Jiazhuo was also very sad. Seeing that the aura around him was getting colder and colder, she still retained some rationality and quickly suggested: "I can only say this much. My only request to you is that no matter what you do, don't involve Ji Xin anymore."
She stood up and left, turning her head to leave a message before leaving.
"Now that I have a new life, I just hope she can be happy."
After Xuan Jiazhuo left, the living room returned to silence. Bing Jie lay on his back on the sofa, sighed twice, raised his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes, picked up his phone to call the driver, and sent a message to his assistant.
When she arrived at the crew the next day, Qi Jixin found out that the male lead had taken a leave of absence. However, the script was filled with scenes between the two of them, and the investors required them to shoot in sequence, which meant that she had to stop working today.
"Okay, I'll go see if the director wants to add any solo shots." Qi Jixin said and went to find the director.
Xuan Jiazhuo had dark circles under his eyes and was absent-minded all morning. When he finally found some free time, he immediately took out his cell phone and sent a message to Bing Jie.
[Hey, are you going to confront your parents?]
[At least give me a reply. If that doesn't work, I'll arrange for more bodyguards for her.]
【……】
[Boss Bing, I hope you are different now and can really protect her well.]
But now the offensive and defensive situations have changed, Bing Jie has not replied to Xuan Jiazhuo's messages, Xuan Jiazhuo can't just wait, she was busy looking for bodyguards for Qi Jixin today, it was not until the evening that she heard the news about Bing Jie indirectly.
Moreover, it was Qi Jixin who told her.
"Sister Zhuo, did you know the director wants to change the script? Here, this is the new script."
Qi Jixin showed her her phone. Xuan Jiazhuo only glanced at it before suddenly, excitedly, flipping her phone over and cursing inwardly: Damn it, I really fed it to the dogs last night, and why did this guy still change the script?!
