Chapter 380 The protective and devoted woman VS The soft-hearted man who harbors a grudge 38
Jiang Zhiyi shook her head.
Fu Chengyan wouldn't go so far as to hit her; he's not that violent.
However, he had pinched her face quite hard, and his eyes and tone were fierce when he spoke, which did frighten her.
Seeing that she didn't answer, Ji Chen knew that she probably didn't want to talk about it, so he didn't ask any further.
Even if no physical fight broke out, there was bound to be an argument, and you might even have been verbally abused or humiliated by that person.
He took her hand and sat her down, reassuring her, "Don't worry, I won't let him bully you again. I'll handle all these things, you don't need to worry about it. If anything happens, just come and tell me."
"Hmm." She blinked, but a few more tears fell, some of them clinging to her face.
Ji Chen felt sorry for the person, and his resentment towards that person intensified.
A few days later.
Although Ji Chen was by her side, Jiang Zhiyi was still terrified, fearing that Fu Chengyan would cause trouble for her and her family.
Several days have passed, but nothing has happened, and I haven't even received a phone call.
She felt a little relieved for the time being.
That morning.
Jiang Zhiyi is going to school to bring some seasonal clothes and blankets to her younger siblings.
They were originally going to go home to get it themselves, but since exams were coming up soon, Jiang Zhiyi told them to stay at school and study hard, and she would deliver it to the school for them.
She went there in Ji Chen's car.
As I passed an intersection, a scene from a palace drama was playing on the large screen in the square.
A palace maid, feeling humiliated, knelt on the ground washing the feet of an arrogant concubine. The concubine asked the maid, "Are my feet beautiful?"
Jiang Zhiyi happened to see this line, and she couldn't help but look down at her feet.
She was wearing a pair of ordinary flat shoes today, but each side had a cute little pom-pom, which added a touch of fun.
The two toes tapped together lightly, and the little pom-pom trembled and swayed, looking a bit like two little monsters with big black heads shaking.
Jiang Zhiyi couldn't help but smile as she continued doing these seemingly boring, but actually quite fun little things.
Ji Chen noticed her movement and asked, "What's wrong? What are you doing?"
"I didn't do anything," she said, turning to look at him quickly, her eyes sparkling.
However, she wasn't going to tell him that she was doing something very strange, as she was a little embarrassed to say it.
"Does your foot hurt?" Ji Chen looked down at her feet.
He reached out to touch her, but Jiang Zhiyi dodged him, saying, "My foot doesn't hurt, I'm fine."
She rushed over and pointed out the window, trying to distract him, "Look outside!"
Ji Chen looked in the direction she was pointing and didn't see anything special; they were just cars driving on the road.
The sky was overcast, and it looked like it was going to rain soon. The weather forecast also said that there would be a heavy downpour later.
When he turned around again, ready to ask her what strange thing she had been referring to, he saw Jiang Zhiyi staring at him with her round eyes wide open, as if nothing had happened.
"You're kidding me?" Ji Chen understood perfectly well that she was deliberately teasing him.
He pulled her over and pinched her face.
"No, you can't pull me! It's your own fault for being so stupid, like Fu Cheng before..."
She almost blurted out the name, but stopped herself as soon as she realized it.
"Hmph...you're just too stupid." Her voice gradually softened.
The atmosphere inside the car suddenly became somewhat awkward.
Ji Chen's eyes darkened slightly.
Jiang Zhiyi turned on her phone and swiped her fingers aimlessly across the screen, pretending that she was busy and had something to do.
After a moment of silence, Ji Chen tossed the phone from her hand into the bag next to him and then moved the bag behind her.
He sat down and pulled her into his arms, his tone unusually serious: "You are not allowed to mention him again, nor can you think about him."
“I know.” She glanced at him a few times.
After thinking for a moment, still feeling a little resentful, she said, "Then you have to be like me and not mention..." She paused slightly, unsure of what words to use to describe the situation, as she didn't seem to see any special women around him.
Hearing her words, he lifted her face, looked into her eyes, and said earnestly, "I only have you, and I have only ever had you."
He told her about his present and his past.
“I won’t ask about your past with him anymore. But I hope that from now on, you will completely forget him, forget him completely. I won’t allow you to still have any thoughts about him, not even the slightest trace. From now on, you can only have me.”
"Okay?" He kissed her eyes.
He adored her eyes; they were like spring water, clear and pure, and their every glance was captivating.
"Mmm." She nodded obediently.
I want you to say 'yes'.
"Okay, I promise you. I'm really done with him now, and there's no future for us. I only love you. If you don't want to hear about him, I won't mention him again."
Ji Chen was satisfied and continued to hold her, letting her head rest on his shoulder.
Behind her, out of her sight, the screen of her phone in her bag was lit up.
Ji Chen's fingers slid lightly, deleting the call record of the call to another man without leaving a trace.
