"Who are you? What are you doing in our house?" Qin Xiang cursed and spoke unhappily as he watched the three of them standing together talking, seemingly ignoring the other people in the living room.
Ji Jianshen then looked at them and said, "I am Ji Jianshen. Of course, my name is not important. You only need to know that Uncle Song sent me here."
"Uncle Song?" Ji Jianshen's words prompted Song Xiang, who had remained silent until now, to speak.
"You call him Uncle Song?"
"Yes." Ji Jianshen didn't need to guess to know that the "he" Song Xiang was referring to was Song Zhengchu.
"Why didn't he come himself? Isn't Ye Xinning his precious daughter?"
"Uncle Song said that he had promised that he would never set foot in this place again in his life, and he kept his word."
After listening to Ji Jianshen's words, Song Xiang remained silent for a while, then suddenly laughed softly, "I will never set foot in this place again in my life, hahaha, I will never set foot in this place again in my life."
"Uncle Song told me to tell you to let us go."
"He said he'd let me go, so I'll just let him go?" Song Xiang was still smiling, but strangely, there was a sense of desolation in her eyes.
Uncle Song said you will.
Upon hearing this, Song Xiang lowered her head, and when she raised it again, the smile was gone from her face.
Her gaze fell on Ji Jianshen, and finally settled on Ye Xinning's face.
Without saying a word, she turned and walked upstairs, step by step, very slowly.
"Qin Xiang, let them go."
This was the only sentence Song Xiang uttered before his figure disappeared around the corner upstairs.
Qin Xiang was completely bewildered when he heard Song Xiang say that he would just let them go. However, in his heart, he would not question or disobey Song Xiang's decision; he would only obey.
"Let them go."
Qin Xiang instructed the bodyguards, and instantly, everyone who had blocked their way left.
"Thank you, Mr. Qin." Ji Jianshen thanked Qin Xiang, then turned to Ye Xinning and said gently, "Let's go."
Ye Xinning was still wondering why Song Xiang's attitude had changed so drastically, but this was not the time to question these things.
She supported Shen Lin, whose face was very pale and whose wound was stained red, making it look particularly shocking.
"Can we go?" Ji Jianshen asked, looking at Shen Lin.
Shen Lin ignored Ji Jianshen and walked outside with Ye Xinning's help.
Ji Jianshen didn't show any emotion despite being slapped in the face. He followed Ye Xinning outside.
After leaving Song Xiang's house, Ji Jianshen stopped in his tracks.
Ye Xinning realized what was happening and turned to look at him. "Why aren't you leaving?"
"You've left Song Xiang safely, and I've completed the tasks Uncle Song assigned me, so I won't be traveling with you anymore."
Ye Xinning exclaimed in surprise, still feeling quite taken aback. "Are you leaving? We just met a little while ago."
“I have some things to do that Zhou Yun can’t handle alone, so I have to take care of them.”
"So, you really have to leave? I was thinking of finishing up and having a good chat with you. It's been a very long time since we last met in Nancheng."
"There will be many opportunities, not just now."
Ye Xinning thought to herself, "Where are the opportunities to meet? I've known Ji Jianshen for so long, but we've met very few times."
"Alright, since you have other things to do, go ahead and take care of them. But promise me you won't leave France yet. We owe you a lot for this, and we must have a meal together later."
"good."
Having received Ji Jianshen's reply, Ye Xinning left with Shen Lin, whose expression had become extremely cold and stern.
Ji Jianshen stood there, watching their departing figures. Zhou Yun walked up to him at some point and looked in the direction he was looking.
"Sir, you have nothing to do at all, so why did you lie to Miss?"
There's no reason why.
Ji Jianshen withdrew his gaze and walked towards the car.
Zhou Yun watched his retreating figure, shook her head helplessly, and quickly followed after him.
After getting into the car, Zhou Yun started the engine and asked, "Sir, where are we going now?"
"The Song family."
"Are you going to see Mr. Song? Mr. Song is so determined to come and rescue Miss this time. He hasn't said anything, but he's probably already displeased. Have you thought about how to deal with this?"
“He is an elder, someone who truly cares for me. I should bear whatever anger he has.”
"Actually, I think that after Mr. Song's words, Song Xiang will definitely let Miss leave. Song Xiang made such a big fuss because he never intended to harm Miss."
"I know, but I won't feel at ease unless I see her escape danger myself." The last time he was kidnapped by Qin Xiang was enough to make him uneasy.
Zhou Yun looked at Ji Jianshen, who was looking out the car window. A sense of coldness emanated from him. His husband was the loneliest person he had ever met.
"Sir," Zhou Yun said after a moment's thought.
"Um."
"Didn't you ever feel resentful because Mr. Song kept you away from Miss?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Jianshen froze, and after a long while, he finally spoke, his voice even fainter than before, "There's nothing to resent. Uncle Song made the right decision. She lives in the sunshine and has a bright future. She can have a stable life and live peacefully through this life. Why should I let my twisted and dark life be associated with her?"
"But the master's feelings for the young lady..."
"Alright." Zhou Yun's words were interrupted by Ji Jianshen. "Stop talking and drive carefully."
Zhou Yun muttered under her breath, "That's true. I just saw that the Shen family's son was just so-so. The gentleman isn't much worse than him."
"Zhou Yun." Ji Jianshen lowered his voice again, this time even more displeased than before, his anger clearly evident.
Zhou Yun didn't dare say anything this time and focused on driving.
...
On the other side.
Ye Xinning helped Shen Lin into the car, and immediately instructed He Yu to drive to the hospital.
Shen Lin coldly replied, "I'm not going."
Ye Xinning assumed he wanted to revisit Shi Lin's side and didn't think much of it. He didn't notice anything amiss, including his cold tone and his attitude from Ji Jianshen's appearance to the present.
“He Yu, don’t go to the hospital. Drive to Mr. Gu’s villa. There’s a doctor there.”
"Yes, miss."
He Yu had barely finished speaking when Shen Lin spoke again, his tone still cold and deep, "Do you feel like I've caused you trouble?"
"What?" Ye Xinning looked at Shen Lin again, completely puzzled as to why he suddenly said such a thing.
"Do you think it's pointless for me to come here to find you?"
