“Who’s there?”
Following Shen Yize's low sigh.
After the sound of porcelain breaking outside, there was the sound of messy footsteps.
There was no response from outside the door.
Instead, the footsteps became farther and farther away, sounding like someone was fleeing in panic, and disappeared around the corner almost in an instant.
Shen Yize had a cold expression. After opening the door, he looked around with a gloomy gaze, and his peripheral vision fell precisely on the reflection of the wall at the corner.
The smooth walls form a mirrored surface.
The figure that was reflected was getting farther and farther away. Judging from the blurry reflection, it seemed to be a woman?
Shen Yize narrowed his eyes dangerously, and a hint of real murderous intent and irritability flashed in his narrow eyes.
His fingertips itched.
However, being in China, there are many restrictions.
He has restrained himself a lot since he came to China. Many of the cruel methods he used to take revenge on others are indeed not convenient to use in China.
When he thought of this, Shen Yize was filled with strong impatience.
He withdrew his gaze and turned to look at the original source of the sound.
It is a vase placed outside the door as a decoration, placed on a waist-high stand.
It seems that the person who was eavesdropping just now was so shocked that he accidentally broke the vase.
Shen Yize's cold and narrow gaze fell on the ground.
Precisely locked onto one of the small reflective beads.
He raised his eyebrows and suddenly smiled. He looked at the pearl earring, narrowed his eyes and recalled slowly.
At this moment, Sarah called again and lectured:
"Why are you still worse than when you were a kid? Hanging up the phone when you have a disagreement is not a good habit. Don't think that just because I'm your secretary now, I can't teach you a lesson—"
"Wen Jingyi."
Shen Yize spoke slowly, stopping Sara from teaching him a lesson.
She was startled, her brows slightly furrowed, and she asked with a gloomy face, "What happened to Wen Jingyi?"
"nothing."
His icy voice was like an elegant venomous snake in the tropical rain forests of Southeast Asia, which had already locked onto the person and was ready to bare its fangs at any time, yet it swam slowly, toying with its prey.
At this time, Shen Yize was in a good mood, curled his lips and said, “It’s just that your good niece heard our call.”
"She's probably guessed your relationship by now."
There was no response from the other end of the phone for a long time.
After a long while, Sarah sighed silently.
Her gentle and magnetic voice rarely carried a hint of bitterness.
Even the speed of the car slowed down a lot. Sarah lowered her eyes and turned a corner casually. Her voice was disembodied, "Forget it. I can't hide it sooner or later anyway."
"Originally we didn't know when to bring this up with her, so it's God's will that she finds out now."
"Let it be."
After Sarah finished speaking, she fell into a long silence again.
This time it was Shen Yize who spoke first.
With obvious sarcasm, he said: "I will not recognize her identity. If you want to take care of her, it is your private matter, but I will not allow her to go back with us."
"I still say the same thing. She is a very unpleasant woman. Let her stay here. I can turn a blind eye and pretend I don't know her existence."
Sarah said tiredly, "Your mother—"
"My mother wouldn't want to know she exists!"
Shen Yize was more gloomy than ever before. He whispered angrily, "You came to find her because you were doing things behind my mother's back. Wen Jingyi's existence will only be a shame to my mother, and she will not acknowledge Wen Jingyi!"
"That's the end of this matter!"
"Now that she knows, you are responsible for comforting her. I will be returning to the family soon. No one is allowed to disturb me."
He ordered Sarah coldly.
This time, Sarah stopped joking with him and remained silent.
Shen Yize leaned over and picked up the familiar pearl earring.
This morning, Wen Jingyi was wearing a pair of shiny earrings.
He slowly tightened his palms, closed his eyes, and thought of something. His face twisted for a moment, and the tall figure left immediately, bringing with it a low air pressure along the way.
"well……"
A long sigh was heard from the moving vehicle.
Sarah looked at the hung up phone and pinched the root of her nose with a headache.
…
Nebula Company, a fire escape that no one passes through.
Wen Jingyi was panting, patting her chest and observing the outside world.
She ran away in a hurry, not sure if Shen Yize had caught up with her.
However, the heavy heartbeat was not even as big as the shock caused by hearing those conversations.
Wen Jingyi tried to calm her uncontrollable, trembling heart.
She was shocked beyond words.
I just heard something...
Shen Yize and Sara are not in a superior-subordinate relationship on the surface. There seems to be some kind of familiar kinship. The relationship between the two seems unusual.
And that bouquet of flowers.
From the conversation between Shen Yize and the other person, she at least confirmed that the bouquet of flowers was not intentional by either of them.
Then it is very likely that the two of them had nothing to do with the murder of their adoptive parents.
Of course, the most important thing is Shen Yize's word "niece".
Am I Sarah's niece?
Wen Jingyi struggled to think through her rusty brain, and it took her a long time to figure out the name.
Since she is Sarah's niece, it means that Sarah is her mother's sister.
When I was living with my adoptive parents, my adoptive mother was an only child.
Wen Jingyi has never enjoyed the care from her aunt.
No wonder...Wen Jingyi suddenly realized again.
No wonder Sarah's attitude towards herself was so strange from the beginning.
