Chapter 104 He wanted to spend their first New Year together.
Shi Yang stared blankly at Ji Jinyu's bleeding forehead.
She never expected that Ji Jinyu would take that blow for her.
Blood flowed down Ji Jinyu's face, making her look deathly pale.
He moved his lips slightly: "Are you alright?"
Shi Yang: "I'm fine. How are you feeling?"
"It's alright, don't worry too much."
Huang Can burst into tears, terrified: "I've already called an ambulance, you'll be alright."
Shi Bin was also stunned, still holding the broken bottle handle in his hand, which was stained with blood.
Shi Yang glanced at Shi Bin with an almost mocking look, and her words pierced Shi Bin's heart like a knife: "Father, are you disappointed that you didn't kill me? I can tell you that even if you had killed me, Shi Yue would never have come out of there in this lifetime."
Shi Bin's face flushed red, and he waved his arm as he was about to come over, but was pulled away by the security guard.
The insults that escaped his lips were: "You beast! That's your sister! How could you send her to the police station?"
"You beast! You beast! I regret ever having given birth to you!"
"Why are you so angry? If you want to see Shi Yue, I can help you." Shi Yang's lips curved into a mocking arc: "You've embezzled quite a bit over the years, haven't you? How about I send you on your way, and you can go in and keep her company?"
Shi Bin's expression changed drastically, his veins bulged, and he looked extremely ferocious, as if he wanted to kill her.
Shi Yang shrugged indifferently, his voice colder than the winter sky: "Do you really think I haven't made any preparations after all these years in the Shi family? I advise you not to provoke me again, or I will definitely keep my word!"
Shi Yang went to the hospital with him, since Ji Jinyu was injured because of her.
Ji Jinyu suffered a superficial injury that required several stitches, and she was kept in the hospital for observation for a day.
When Shi Yang went in, Huang Can was busy taking care of him.
Ji Jinyu sat up and leaned against the headboard, seeing that she remained silent.
"Yangyang, don't overthink it. I just happened to go back to get a document and saw Shibin rushing towards you. I didn't do these things to make you..."
The more I talk about it, the harder it becomes to explain.
Shi Yang interrupted him: "I won't think too much about it. Thank you for today, brother. I will definitely help you if there is anything I can do in the future."
Seeing her perfectly clear-headed expression, Ji Jinyu felt a pang of bitterness in his heart, but remained silent.
Indeed, no matter what he does now, he can't win her back.
Shi Yang didn't stay long. After paying all the medical expenses, she hired a caregiver to stay and look after him. Whether he needed it or not, she had to do her best.
Their identities are sensitive, and it is not appropriate for them to stay and take care of her.
No sooner had Shi Yang left than Huang Can rudely questioned, "Who is she? Ji Jinyu, don't blame me for not reminding you, our marriage is an arranged marriage between our families. I know you look down on me, but don't even think about doing whatever you want."
Having just been injured, her forehead still throbbing, Ji Jinyu felt inexplicably annoyed: "Miss Huang, you've misunderstood, she is..."
The words were on the tip of his tongue, but he subconsciously didn't want to admit to others that Shi Yang was his younger brother's wife.
"Who she is is not important. We are innocent now. The family marriage was just talk. It's not Miss Huang's place to interfere in my private affairs."
Huang Can slammed his water glass heavily on the table in anger: "Who wants to meddle in your private affairs! I... I don't care anyway..."
After leaving the hospital, Shi Yang hailed a taxi and headed to the airport.
She has already booked her plane ticket.
As the Lunar New Year approaches, the airport is packed with people, who are hurrying along, dragging large bags of luggage to catch their flights home.
Shi Yang sat in the waiting hall, opened his phone, and was stunned to find that there were only three days left until the Chinese New Year.
So much has happened these past two days; she thought the Lunar New Year was still a while away.
I didn't expect it to happen so quickly.
She looked at the expectant eyes of every pedestrian hurrying along the way, eyes that reflected their longing and anticipation of returning home.
For her, home is wherever Ji Peiheng is.
Unconsciously, her initial intention to go see him shifted from simply trying to appease a man to a deeper longing for home.
...
A misty fog hung in the air, the grass was desolate, and in the distance, the large red lanterns hanging in front of the farmhouses faintly emitted a festive red glow.
Ji Peiheng suddenly realized that the New Year was almost here.
The howling wind struggled against the moving vehicles, constantly emitting fierce howls.
Before long, snowflakes began to fall gently from the sky.
The driver said, "Mr. Ji, the weather is terrible. Why don't you stay at a nearby farmhouse for the night before heading back to the city?"
"No need, let's try to get back as quickly as possible."
If I go back to the city tomorrow, it will take another day; there are still many things to do.
He feared he wouldn't have time to return to the capital.
He also wanted to spend their first New Year together properly.
Several hours later, they finally arrived in the city, and Ji Peiheng checked into a five-star hotel.
As soon as he plugged his phone in to charge, a flood of missed calls appeared on the screen, including one from Shi Yang.
Just as I was about to call back, Liao Nan called first.
"Mr. Ji, what happened? Why did it take you so long to answer the phone?"
"I ran into some trouble in the countryside. The signal was bad there, and my phone died right away. What's the rush?"
Liao Nan hurriedly recounted what had happened at the Ji family's gate, saying worriedly, "Please come back quickly. The eldest young master was injured because of his wife. I saw her go to the hospital with her."
He was extremely worried. If the eldest son took this opportunity to get close to his wife, President Ji's position would be in grave danger.
"Where was Yang then? Was he injured?"
"With the eldest young master protecting him, he was not injured."
"That's good. Keep an eye on the Shi family."
Liao Nan sensed that President Ji was missing the point, so she had to ask, "President Ji, aren't you worried?"
Ji Peiheng chuckled.
Liao Nan thought he didn't care and became even more worried. Just as she was about to say something, there was a knock on the door.
Ji Peiheng opened the door.
A little face, red from the cold, appeared before me. The tip of its nose and ears were red, its eyes were bright and moist, and its hands were constantly rubbing together.
