Chapter 103 Men, when they're angry, just coax them.
Not long after falling asleep, Shi Yang was disturbed by noises downstairs and buried her head under the covers.
She was too tired to think about why it was noisy downstairs.
At that moment, the bedroom door was violently pushed open.
Wen Wanwan threw off the covers and burst into tears.
Shi Yang was startled awake by the loud cry.
Wen Wanwan's tear-filled face loomed large in front of me.
"Sister-in-law, you scared me to death! Did I almost never see you again?" Wen Wanwan sobbed. "I'll never dare to drink with you again. It's too terrifying. You disappeared in the blink of an eye..."
Shi Yang gradually awoke from her sleep: "I'm fine, I'm sorry to have worried you."
"Waaaaah... Thank goodness you're alright, I almost got chopped up by my brother..."
"Alright, alright..." Shi Yang patted her back to comfort her for a while before Wen Wanwan calmed down.
Shi Yang remembered something else: "How is Qingqing? Did she get discharged from the hospital smoothly?"
Wen Wanwan: "She's downstairs."
Upon leaving the bedroom, Shi Yang saw Lu Qingqing sitting in a wheelchair, looking anxious.
When she appeared before her unharmed, Lu Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief but also asked irritably, "Tell me, what earth-shattering thing did you go to do instead of picking me up from the hospital?"
Shi Yang came downstairs and sat down on the sofa with an air of nonchalance: "Is it a big deal to have Shi Yue arrested?"
Lu Qingqing's expression hardened: "Really?"
"Is it really necessary to joke about something like this?"
"Hahaha—" Lu Qingqing laughed loudly, "Evil will be punished! I knew she wouldn't have a good ending—"
The gloom vanished instantly: "Let's go, let's go out for drinks to celebrate."
In the past, a call to action would be met with immediate and enthusiastic response, but this time there was no reply.
Why aren't you saying anything?
Wen Wanwan is traumatized by the loss of Shi Yang: "My brother has been keeping a close eye on me lately, so I have to go home early."
Lu Qingqing looked at Shi Yang again.
Shi Yang rubbed his still sore thighs: "I escaped death, you have to let me rest at home for a few days. Besides, you're already lame, and you're still thinking about drinking?"
Lu Qingqing said with disdain, "You guys are such a killjoy."
He chatted with them for a while longer, recounting that thrilling night. Wen Wanwan's eyes sparkled as she looked at Shi Yang. She leaned on the sofa, resting her chin on her hand, and exclaimed, "Wow, sister-in-law, you're so cool! I admire you so much!"
She asked all sorts of questions, and Shi Yang patiently answered them, greatly satisfying her curiosity.
Not long after, Wen Huai'an really came to pick her up. Wen Wanwan said goodbye with reluctance, "Let me be a good girl in front of my brother for a few days, and then I'll come find you all for a drink and a good time in a few days."
The deer waved its hand gently: "Alright, you should go now."
After Wen Wanwan left, Shi Yang suddenly lost his spirit and could no longer muster the same interest as before.
Lu Qingqing immediately saw through the situation: "Did you two have a fight?"
Shi Yang asked in surprise, "How did you know?"
"Hmph, given how much your husband cherishes you, he should be at home watching over you after something this serious happened. But it's so late now, and there's not a soul in sight. And look at you, so full of worry. You never imagined this would be so difficult."
"Wow, Lu Qingqing, I never realized you were so thoughtful."
Lu hummed softly, "Have you forgotten that I'm a reporter, after all?"
Finally, she added, "But what you did was really unfair. If I were Ji Peiheng, I would be angry too."
Shi Yang looked at her hesitantly: "Then what should I do now?"
"Hush him."
How do I coax him?
Lu glanced at her lightly and tapped her teacup with her finger: "I'm thirsty."
Shi Yang immediately took the teacup and ran to the tea room to refill it, then brought it back to Lu Qingqing's side: "Try the water temperature and see if it's suitable?"
Lu Qingqing said with disdain, "It's alright."
Shi Yang leaned close to her leg: "Strategist, may I now offer my guidance?"
Lu took a small sip of tea and said in a deliberately profound tone, "Men, you know, you can act cute, cry a little..."
...
As night fell, her eyelids kept drooping, and she drifted off to sleep in her dreams.
It wasn't until the next morning that she learned from Aunt Cui that Ji Peiheng hadn't come back all night.
No one answered when she called.
Lu's soft words still lingered in my ears.
Men, you know, you can just coax them a little.
If you're extremely angry, lower your stance and use all sorts of tricks, like acting cute and charming.
After changing his dressing at the hospital, Shi Yang went straight to the Ji family.
They ran into Ji Jinyu.
I hadn't seen him for a while, and he looked a bit thinner.
Those things are in the past. Shi Yang's attitude towards Ji Jinyu is that he neither likes nor dislikes him.
The moment he saw her, a glimmer of light flashed in Ji Jinyu's eyes, but it quickly dimmed again. He still managed a forced smile: "You've come to see Pei Heng?"
"Um, is Big Brother going out?" Shi Yang asked politely.
"I'm going out to meet with a business partner to discuss some matters."
Shi Yang exchanged a few simple pleasantries and then headed to take the elevator.
Ji Jinyu suddenly spoke up: "I heard about what happened yesterday."
Shi Yang stopped and turned around.
"My uncle and aunt came to see me this morning."
Shi Yang understood that Shi Yue had been taken away by the police and would not be able to get out unless something unexpected happened. Song Zhihua and Shi Bin were naturally anxious, and it was not surprising that they went to find Ji Jinyu.
She smiled and said, "Brother, are you pleading for me? Shi Yue has done more than just me, so pleading with me won't help."
Ji Jinyu shook his head, his eyes filled with complex emotions: "I just wanted to ask how you are? Are you hurt?"
He seemed genuinely just asking out of concern, and Shi Yang's expression softened a bit: "I'm fine, thank you for your concern, brother. I won't take up any more of your time, I'll be going now."
"Ji Jinyu, hurry up and let's go, or we'll be late!"
A figure skipped and hopped past Shi Yang.
She instinctively turned around to look.
A young woman.
She is very pretty and has a pure and innocent look.
The young woman swayed her arm around Ji Jinyu's.
Ji Jinyu subconsciously pulled her arm away and glanced uncomfortably in Shi Yang's direction.
Shi Yang didn't pay any attention and pressed the button for the floor where the president's office was located after entering the elevator.
Ji Jinyu looked slightly dejected and distanced himself from the girl beside him: "Ms. Huang, this is the company, it's better if we keep our distance."
Huang Can didn't care: "What's there to be afraid of? We're going to get married in the future, so it doesn't matter if we see each other. Besides, your grandma arranged for me to be by your side so that we could get to know each other better, right?"
Ji Jinyu frowned and lowered his voice: "Miss Huang, no one can predict what will happen in the future, so it's best not to talk about it so casually."
After saying that, he ignored her and walked straight to the door, getting into the prepared vehicle.
Huang Can sullenly waited for a while, then chased after him again: "Wait for me..."
...
Shi Yang couldn't find Ji Peiheng in the president's office either. She was quite surprised when she learned from Liao Nan that he was away on a business trip.
"Business trip? When?"
"Last night, President Ji left in a hurry and didn't have time to say much."
Shi Yang bit her lip, unable to describe her feelings. She felt confused, a little wronged, and a jumble of emotions overwhelmed her.
Was he very unhappy when he left?
Liao Nan thought for a moment and said, "No, Mr. Ji seems to be in a hurry. Madam, please don't overthink it. Maybe Mr. Ji just has something urgent to attend to."
She's petty; she must be angry.
On the way out, Shi Yang kept making wild guesses, wondering if there was some urgent matter that led him to leave without even saying goodbye.
Even Liao Nan didn't know.
Maybe it's something urgent?
Before I knew it, I had reached the door.
Suddenly, I heard a series of hurried footsteps, and a shadow fell over my head.
Before she could react, she was pulled and embraced by a warm hug.
Then I heard the sound of something breaking.
There were also muffled groans from men.
And then someone called out urgently, "Jinyu—"
