"Ning Beiyao's mother might have let slip that someone in the Ji family wanted to take away Ji Yi's things, but I have absolutely no idea what Ji Yi has that would be coveted. Also, why was Ji Yi sent to the Ning family by her mother right after graduation? Ji Yi isn't that old; she could wait a few more years before getting married. Why is Jiang Shuqin in such a hurry? I don't know any of these things."
Shang Xian was very troubled, feeling that the Ji family was plotting something, and that Ji Yi's death might not be so simple. This sixth sense was particularly strong, perhaps because the worse one's health, the closer one is to God.
"I'll start investigating first. You take care of yourself and wait for me to return to Los Angeles."
It would be easy for him to investigate these matters, given his abilities. But after listening to what Shang Xian said, he felt something was off. What could the Ji family possibly want from Ji Yi? He thought that besides profit, there really wasn't anything else they could take.
"I'm going to the hospital for a check-up tomorrow, and I can't drink any of those Chinese medicines." The thought of the medicine I drank today makes my scalp tingle.
"Be careful outside; crowds can easily lead to trouble."
Shen Yi really never stops talking about safety...
"I'm not so badly likely to be hunted down," Shang Xian said with a smile.
She was definitely careful, but she felt that what the domineering CEO said was a bit exaggerated. It wasn't like anyone really wanted to kill her. She was just a sickly person. What was there for others to care about? Even if she died, it would be a natural death. Did he think it was a plot from a novel, with a traitor chasing after her?
"That--"
"Someone sent me a text message, let me see." Shang Xian opened the message and saw several photos.
Shang Xian smacked his lips, "Hmm..."
"What is it?" Shen Yi asked.
"I'll send it to you," Shang Xian casually sent the photo to Shen Yi.
Shen Yi: "Hmm..." No words.
The photos show a man and a woman lying together, along with other photos of them kissing. The man is Ning Beiyao, who appears to be drunk. She also knows the woman, Chu Yuejiao.
"Is Chu Yuejiao sending me photos to provoke me?" Shang Xianfeng sighed nonchalantly. Has this little girl lost her mind?
She doesn't like Ning Beiyao, so even if Chu Yuejiao sends her the process, she won't react at all.
To be honest, I'm starting to feel a bit disgusted with Ning Beiyao now...
"Delete it, it's bad for your eyes," Shen Yi said after a long silence.
Shang Xian deleted the message: "Yes, I haven't seen these pictures."
"Get some rest, I still have some things to take care of."
Shang Xian said goodnight and hung up the phone. He sat in the hammock, lost in thought. Chu Yuejiao wasn't a bad person; she was just ruthless when it came to love.
She chuckled, saying that there are no absolutely good people, only different degrees of badness.
I'm actually quite looking forward to seeing that mysterious, dim-witted CEO who kidnapped Lin Nuoer. There are so many good women in the world, why does he have to fall for the headstrong Lin Nuoer?
That's a pity.
Shang Xian placed her phone on the bedside table and went to sleep.
——
Ning Beiyao woke up in the middle of the night. He rubbed his dizzy head, his mind now clear.
A hand was placed on his waist, and only then did he realize that something was wrong, so he quickly sat up.
"Brother Beiyao, you're awake," Chu Yue said tenderly, looking at his face.
Ning Beiyao stared at her menacingly, then pulled her off him and threw her aside.
He himself couldn't believe it was happening.
Ye Nian was called out by Tang Dongyu and Chu Xichen. She only knew that she had drunk a lot of wine, but she didn't know why the wine was so intoxicating. Later, Ye Nian took Tang Dongyu back.
He remembered that Lin Nuoer had brought Chu Yuejiao with her...
