Chapter 121 Be Sensible and Don’t Get into Trouble
Xu Zhenqu's cloudy eyes suddenly widened, and he covered his chest and began to breathe heavily.
Ji Jinhe swept his cold gaze over him for the last time, then turned and walked out.
There was a sound of a chair falling behind him, and Ji Jinhe walked out the door without looking back.
The two people waiting outside the door looked at her when they saw her come out.
Qi Xiuxu walked over and held her hand. After feeling the cold touch, he held her hand and put it in his pocket.
Jiang Youze put out the cigarette in his hand, stood a meter away tactfully, raised an eyebrow and asked, "Are you done?"
"Yeah." Ji Jinhe's hands were tucked into her warm pockets and gradually warmed up. She moved her fingers and responded calmly.
"Okay." Jiang Youze patted the cigarette ash that fell on his clothes and followed the two of them towards the car.
Not far from the gate, Xu Jinlin sat in the car with his head buried weakly in the steering wheel.
There was no light on in the car. In the darkness, Xu Jinlin buried his head in his hands. After taking a few deep breaths, he was about to start the car.
Several beams of headlights shone from behind the car, and Xu Jinxilin looked in the rearview mirror.
I saw a convoy slowly passing through the gate and heading outside.
There was a sign in front of the car in front. Xu Jinlin squinted his eyes and looked carefully. When he saw it clearly, his face turned pale.
That is the logo of the Qi family in the capital. It is rare to see vehicles with this logo in the capital. Whenever it appears, there is always a convoy traveling at the same time.
He subconsciously shrank his body. Even though he knew that people outside couldn't see what was happening inside the car, he still subconsciously felt guilty.
It was not until the long convoy disappeared that Xu Jinlin straightened up.
He had a complicated expression on his face. How could the Qi family's convoy appear here?
Could it be that Ji Jinhe is here too?
He suddenly remembered that he was notified that he could meet Xu Zhenqu today, and his intuition told him that this was related to Ji Jinhe.
Is it Ji Jinhe who wants to see Xu Zhenqu or Xu Zhenqu who wants to see Ji Jinhe?
It’s a pity that no one can help him solve his doubts.
Xu Jinlin looked dazed and started the car with a dazed expression as he drove back to where he lived.
They still lived in the villa under Gu Xuanzhou's name. Xu Jinlin parked the car in the garage and was about to open the door with the key when it was opened from the inside.
"Brother?" Xu Jinxi's surprised voice came out.
Xu Jinlin looked up at her with a frown on his face.
Xu Jinxi has been working as Gu Xuanzhou's secretary for some time. Gu Xuanzhou pays her a good salary, so her life is quite comfortable.
"It's so late, where have you been?" Xu Jinxi took the briefcase from Xu Jinlin's hand naturally and said half-blamingly, "You didn't even tell your family. Mom was just thinking about you."
Xu Jinlin's eyes passed from Xu Jinxi's hand, and finally fixed on her face, "I'm going to see my father."
"Oh, really? I couldn't get in even when I wanted to see Dad before." Xu Jinxi's expression froze for a moment, then quickly turned into one of worry. She asked nervously, "How is it? Did Dad say anything?"
"We talked about something." Xu Jinlin stared at her expression and spoke word by word.
"What's the matter?" Xu Jinxi's expression was almost unable to maintain, and he asked anxiously.
Xu Jinlin stared at her expression, not missing any of the emotions on her face, "Dad asked us to take good care of the family."
Xu Jinxi breathed a sigh of relief, but then suddenly realized something was wrong. By the time she reacted, it was too late. Xu Jinlin's eyes were fixed on her.
The expression on her face began to weaken, and she faltered in her explanation: "I, I just feel..."
Xu Jinlin lowered his eyes and interrupted her explanation, "Okay, go in."
Xu Jinxi stood at the door in a daze, and her original intention of going out gave up. She lowered her head and silently took Xu Jinlin's briefcase and walked in.
Ying Wanshu, who was inside the door, saw Xu Jinlin coming back. She looked at his face and asked cautiously, "Jinlin, have you eaten?"
The Xu family went bankrupt and owed a huge debt. Now Xu Zhenqu was arrested again, and Xu Jinyi also transferred from the aristocratic school to an ordinary high school.
Ying Wanshu was used to a life of luxury, but when she suddenly went out to work, she was fired because she was not active enough and did not work quickly enough.
Now Xu Jiachun relies on Xu Jinlin alone to support himself, and Xu Jinxi occasionally pretends to give Ying Wanshu some money.
Xu Jinlin frowned and said impatiently, "No."
After hearing what he said, Ying Wanshu hurried to the kitchen to heat up food for him.
Xu Jinxi walked in from the entrance. She put Xu Jinlin's briefcase on the sofa in the living room and looked at Xu Jinlin, who was sitting on the sofa with his eyes closed, with an embarrassed expression.
She felt that Xu Jinlin seemed to know something, but did not expose her.
Now Xu Zhenqu has been captured, and Yun Qi has disappeared, probably because he was also captured.
Although Xu Jinlin still has a small company under her name, it is not enough to deal with the debts owed by the Xu family. The only one she can rely on now is Gu Xuanzhou.
A hint of determination flashed in her eyes. The Xu family could no longer bring her any benefits.
After finishing her thoughts, Xu Jinxi raised her head, only to meet Xu Jinlin's frowning gaze at her.
Xu Jinxi's heart skipped a beat and his scalp went numb for a moment.
I felt like my thoughts were completely seen through, which was a very bad feeling. The last time I had this feeling was when I was facing Qi Xiuxu and Ji Jinhe at the Qi family.
Xu Jinxi stood there, she opened her mouth to say something, and then Ying Wanshu's voice came from the kitchen.
"Jinxi," Ying Wanshu was busy when she saw Xu Jinxi standing in the living room with nothing to do. She took out a cup of hot milk from the microwave and called her, "Help Mom take this cup of milk to Jinyi. He has an exam soon and needs more nutrition."
Xu Jinxi said yes, took the milk from Ying Wanshu, and quickly fled the living room where Xu Jinlin was.
The whole cup was hot, and it felt very scalding if held for a long time. Xu Jinxi quickened his pace upstairs with the milk in his hand.
"Jinyi!" Xu Jinxi endured the scorching temperature of his palms and couldn't help but increase the strength when he reached out to knock on Xu Jinyi's door.
The door was opened from the inside, and Xu Jinxi quickly stuffed the milk in her hand into Xu Jinyi's hand, "Mom asked me to bring you this milk, drink it while it's hot."
Xu Jinyi took the cup of hot milk with a gloomy expression, and he seemed not to feel the redness of his palms from the heat of the cup.
He looked up at Xu Jinxi who was blowing on her palms. After a moment of silence, he called her, "Sister Jinxi."
Xu Jinxi paused in blowing her hand. She squinted her eyes and looked at Xu Jinyi, her smile not reaching her eyes. "What's wrong?"
Ever since knowing that Ji Jinhe was the second daughter of the Qi family, Xu Jinyi called her "Sister Jinxi" instead of "Sister" as before.
Xu Jinyi opened his mouth, wanting to say something but stopping himself.
Xu Jinxi's eyes swept across his exposed arms, which were covered in bruises, as if they had been beaten with a stick.
"Jinyi, did you get into a fight at school?" Xu Jinxi put down his hand and said nonchalantly, "Everything's going on at home. Be sensible and don't get into trouble and make Mom and brother worry, okay?"
