Ji Chen learned about that incident a few days later. He remembers holding a book about Audrey Hepburn and flipping through it.
When Assistant Guo came in to report the matter, he was a little surprised that his son had actually sent a private investigator to investigate it.
Knowing that their birth mother had passed away, and fearing that things might change if they waited too long, they called the two children over after some consideration.
"knew?"
Ji Hua and Ji Han'er looked at each other. Ji Hua pursed his lips, raised his head, and looked directly at his father.
The two nodded sadly, "We know."
Even though you know they know everything, hearing it with your own ears is a completely different experience.
Thinking about it, I realized that I would soon be leaving this world, and the pain was so intense that I could hardly breathe.
His child, having just learned of his mother's departure, can he still accept him?
"Dad...are you...not feeling well? Should I call a doctor?"
The twelve-year-old boy was much more mature, steady, and sensible than his peers.
Ji Chen waved his hand, gesturing for the brother and sister to come closer.
Do you hate your father?
Both children shook their heads in unison. How could they hate their father? They loved him more than anything.
Ji Chen smiled with satisfaction, pulled his two children into his arms, and held them close for a long time.
Just when they thought he was asleep, Ji Chen suddenly spoke.
"Don't blame your mother, she had no choice, she loves you very much."
If she knew about you, she would definitely love you very much, but unfortunately she left again.
Feeling their father's slightly trembling body, the two children felt a lump in their throats and burst into tears.
“Dad, my sister and I know that if Mom were still here, she would love us just as much as you do.”
It's all his fault; he shouldn't have investigated Mom's whereabouts. Otherwise, Dad wouldn't be so upset. It's all his fault.
Concerned for her two children, Ji's mother peeked through the crack in the door and witnessed everything before her, shedding tears of helplessness, sadness, and relief.
Look at her grandson, he's so well-behaved.
...
During the day, the weather suddenly changed, and a torrential downpour began. The glass windows rattled against each other, creating a deafening noise that was quite unpleasant.
The servant came in promptly and closed the doors and windows.
"Miss Chen, are you alright?"
Shen Shiyi shook her head. "Thank you, I'm fine. Thank you for your trouble."
I was taken very well here, treated to all sorts of delicacies—almost like a Manchu Han Imperial Feast. Aside from being a little bored, everything else was fine.
The maid smiled, nodded, and left, leaving her alone in the large room.
I wonder how Jian Ran and the others are doing?
They must be crying their eyes out right now. Although they've only known each other for a few years, their camaraderie is deep.
I just hope they can come to terms with it soon, so as not to jeopardize their training and future.
An accidental turn over aggravated her wound, causing her to grimace in pain and break out in a sweat.
After jumping into the sea and getting injured, he stayed in bed all day, looking like a useless person, but there was nothing he could do about it, which made him... inexplicably irritable.
Slowly move your body to the mirror.
He had half-undressed, revealing bruises all over his body, which was quite frightening.
The most shocking thing is the gunshot wound near the heart; even after all these days, the scar remains.
From now on, her body, as white as jade, will have a new member.
While staring blankly into space, he didn't even notice someone coming in.
What are you doing standing here?
He was terrified when he came in and saw no one on the bed. He turned around and saw the woman in front of the mirror.
For a moment, Shen Shiyi felt somewhat embarrassed.
He's still half-naked like this; I really want to pry open his head and see what's inside.
"Don't worry, it's definitely brain matter inside."
He hadn't expected to see such a scene upon entering, but it was a feast for the eyes nonetheless.
As he was speaking, Shen Shiyi quickly pulled up her clothes and walked out with a calm expression.
"Did you need something from me?"
Don't be heartbroken, Mr. Bie Lai. Sister, do you have to be so ungrateful? After all, I saved your life.
Not only did she not offer herself in return, but she was also so blunt and rude to him. What can I say about her?
"Alright, do you think I don't know what you're thinking? Then what have I been doing for the past twenty years?"
She rolled her eyes at him again without any politeness. During the time they had spent together, Mr. Bie Lai received nothing but eye-rolls as a huge "benefit".
"Fine, I can't afford to mess with this guy. ...Sigh, what's the plan now?" He was referring to things in the military.
Shen Shiyi pondered for a moment, then said, "Let's not rush."
Since she has "sacrificed" herself, it might be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Mr. Bie Lai shrugged, indicating his helplessness.
"Fine, whatever you say."
On a desolate, overgrown island, there lived only his family.
She later learned that the entire island belonged to him, which left her speechless; money really does allow one to be capricious.
By the way, after she "sacrificed" herself, I wonder how her aunt and the children are doing.
Knock knock knock!
"Enter!"
In the study, the man sat upright in front of the computer, handling various tasks, big and small. Half an hour later, he finished.
He took off his wire-rimmed glasses, stood up, and walked towards her.
"I'm sorry if you've been waiting long. Sometimes it's just like that when you're busy with work."
He then sat down next to Shen Shiyi, who gently and considerately poured him a cup of tea, which he naturally accepted and drank.
"This is your first time in my room." The implication was that this was the first time she had taken the initiative to come to him.
Shen Shiyi smiled but didn't speak. Mr. Bielai also waited quietly for her, showing respect for women as a fine quality of his.
After a long while, the woman parted her thin lips slightly.
"Are my children alright?"
