Ji Jin finished filming and prepared to go out for something to eat with Chen Xiao.
The two of them walked to the door while chatting and laughing, and were stopped by a male voice.
"Guoguo."
Ji Jin's smile froze for a moment and he turned to look over.
I felt a little awkward when I saw that familiar face with a gentle smile.
Yan Fengdong said, "Your studio is doing very well."
Ji Jin hesitated for a moment and then spoke: "Master."
"Well." Yan Feng said, "Since we met, let's have a meal together."
Ji Jin didn't want to, "Master, I have a friend, it's not convenient."
Yan Feng didn't force it, "Okay."
"Actually, seeing that you're doing well, I feel relieved. Huo Qinghuai is dead. You'll be freer in the future, Guoguo."
Ji Jin didn't react for a moment, "Who died?"
Before Yan Feng could say anything, Po Jun appeared in front of her.
"Miss Ji." Pojun handed her the box in his hand, "This is the property I promised you before. Please keep it."
Ji Jin refused: "I said, I don't want it."
Pojun placed the box at her feet.
"My uncle went to the notarization first and specifically told me that only you have the right to deal with it. It's useless for us to keep it. You can throw it away or do whatever you want. It's up to you."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Ji Jin quickly caught up with him, "What?"
She didn't care whether Huo Qinghuai was dead or alive, as Chen Xu had told her it was a one-year term.
It's only been four or five months, how could he suddenly die?
"Huo Qinghuai... is dead?"
Pojun nodded expressionlessly, walked around Ji Jin and left.
Ji Jin stood there, his silent heart seemed to be thrown into a stone, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.
She couldn't explain this emotion either.
Chen Xiao came over to comfort her, "Teacher Ji, I understand you. After all, we were once brother and sister. It takes time to accept the sudden separation. It's not because of anything else. In fact, it's good this way. From now on, no one will bother you and make you unhappy."
Ji Jin didn't say anything, she picked up the box.
When I walked to the trash can, I hesitated.
Although this is a property transfer, when it comes to cashing out, it's all red bills, like a mountain.
For a stingy person like her, it really takes great courage to lose such a huge fortune.
"Guoguo, this isn't a problem. Let me hold it for you. When we get back home, we'll put it in the safe at home. No one will see it and think anything of it."
Chen Xiao knew how much wealth Huo Qinghuai had, and she would be very sad to lose it.
Ji Jin was silent for a long time, but finally gave the box to Chen Xiao.
"Xiaoxiao, I don't want to eat anymore. Go buy something for yourself."
"Let's go back to the hotel." Chen Xiaoteng held her arm with his. "The food in the hotel is delicious too."
Ji Jin was a little distraught, and it was Chen Xiao who took her away.
After walking a few steps, Chen Xiao looked back.
Gave Yan Feng an apologetic look.
Yan Feng smiled gently and mouthed, "No."
"Take good care of her."
Chen Xiao nodded.
They were not far from the hotel, so they walked back.
Arriving at the room, Chen Xiao first put the box into the suitcase, then ordered the hotel's meal and some wine.
After it was delivered, it was placed on a small coffee table and the wine was sobered up.
She went to find Ji Jin.
Ji Jin sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in the corner of the bedroom. There was no light on, only the neon lights outside that flickered.
Her face looked gloomy.
When Chen Xiao heard the news that Huo Qinghuai had gone to Japan, he felt a little emotional.
After all, he is a lively person.
To say that I have done anything unforgivable, no.
So even if Ji Jin no longer loved him, she still stayed with him for those years.
Even crying was normal to her.
But Ji Jin now seemed to have lost his soul, just lying there, neither sad nor happy.
Not a single tear.
This is even more worrying.
"Teacher Ji, would you like a drink?"
Ji Jin didn't respond.
Chen Xiao went to get the wine glasses and poured two glasses of wine.
I also had some French fries to fill my stomach.
"Come." She stuffed the wine into Ji Jin's hand.
Ji Jin finally reacted and drank it in one gulp.
This is the way to drink it again.
Chen Xiao couldn't accompany Ji Jin like this every day. She had to stay sober to prevent Ji Jin from doing anything bad after drinking.
She refilled Ji Jin's glass.
After drinking, I can sleep well and won’t think about anything.
As he drank the wine, Chen Xiao moved all the food over here.
"Country F is indeed a romantic city."
She narrowed her eyes and touched Ji Jin's shoulder, "Look, it seems like someone is doing something bad over there."
Ji Jin couldn't see anything clearly, everything in front of him was blurry.
It was like being covered by a layer of fog, and nothing could be seen clearly.
But it was scorching hot, dripping down one by one and hitting the floor.
When Chen Xiao saw Ji Jin crying, he felt relieved.
Emotions must be vented; holding them in will make you sick.
"drink wine!"
She clinked glasses with Ji Jin and said, "Let's say goodbye to the past and welcome the future!"
Afterwards, she watched as Ji Jin turned the wine glass upside down and spilled the wine on the floor.
Memorial ceremony.
“…”
The wine that Chen Xiao took was like a thorn stuck in his throat.
Before she could say anything, she felt a weight on her body.
Ji Jin fell on her.
"Teacher Ji?"
She screamed a few times and was sure that she was drunk. She took Ji Jin to the bed, covered her with a quilt and wiped her face.
Then clean up the mess in front of the French window.
Now that the domestic light has come on, she sent a message to Jiang Lai.
Ask about Huo Qinghuai's situation.
Jiang Lai woke up, but Chi Zhan had not come back yet.
She sent a message to Chi Zhan, and Chi Zhan also said to wait until he came back.
She wasn't very clear about the details.
"Pojun went to look for you?"
Chen Xiao went to the living room to listen to Jiang Lai's voice message. After listening, he replied quietly, "Yes, he gave me a box. It's all Huo Qinghuai's property. He also said that Huo Qinghuai transferred it to Teacher Ji's name a while ago."
Jiang Lai: "How is Xiaojin?"
Chen Xiao told the truth about the situation, and Jiang Lai thanked him: "Thank you for taking care of me."
"That's going too far. We are good sisters."
Jiang Lai sent a hug emoji: "Please comfort her more in the next two days. I'll treat you to a big meal when you come back."
"Okay, don't worry."
Jiang Lai put down his phone, still feeling that something was fishy.
Ruan Nanzhi peeled an orange for her and said, "Wait and see what happens."
*
Ji Jin had a very uncomfortable sleep.
She felt her mind was extremely clear, and all the past events flashed through her mind like slides.
His body felt heavy and he had difficulty even turning over.
She wanted to break free from these memories, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't.
Finally, Huo Qinghuai stood in front of her with a pale face.
He retreated step by step until he fell into the abyss behind him.
"Guoguo, I'm sorry."
She reached out anxiously, wanting to grab him, but she could not reach the abyss.
Just spinning around in circles.
"Huo Qinghuai——"
Chen Xiao was awakened by her talking in her sleep. Seeing her sweating profusely, he was terrified, but he didn't dare to touch her.
I'm afraid something might happen if I wake him up.
Just as I was about to call someone for help, I saw Ji Jin suddenly sit up.
“…”
"Are you...are you okay?"
