That day in the lounge, the old man spoke harshly to her for the first time, and his tone was firm. He was determined not to say a word even if she hated him.
The old man said it was a Pandora's box and anyone who opened it would die.
When you stare into the abyss, the abyss also stares back at you...
What exactly is that abyss?
Is it really that scary?
Ji Zhinan was lost in thought when he suddenly felt warmth on the back of his hand.
When she looked down, she saw Gu Yibei's right hand covering the back of her hand, and then he held her slightly cold hand tightly.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here."
There was no exaggerated embellishment, just four very simple words, but they immediately warmed Ji Zhinan's originally empty heart.
Yes, she is no longer alone.
Gu Yibei met her hesitant eyes and spoke seriously: "With me here, you will no longer be alone. You have no home, so I will give you a home. I will spoil you for the rest of your life, and you will have everything that others have."
"If you want to find them I will help you find them, no matter the cost."
Home……
A warm enough word.
Ever since she found out in her previous life that she was not the daughter of the Ji family, she had been numb until she met Gu Yibei.
She has no home, no parents, and even her grandfather is fake.
She felt that her life was meaningless, and the only belief that supported her after her rebirth might be to make Ji Zhixia and Mu Zeyu, who had set her on fire in her previous life, pay the price.
Now a man suddenly appeared, took her hand and told her seriously that he was willing to give her a home...
Ji Zhinan felt as if she were in darkness, with endless blackness in front and behind. When she was at a loss, this man suddenly appeared and brought light to the road ahead of her...
She was stunned for a long time until the sound of a horn behind her brought her back to her senses.
The light in front had turned green a long time ago, and the car behind was pressing on.
"Let's drive."
Ji Zhinan put the jade pendant away and the two quickly changed the subject.
…………
After sending Ji Zhinan to the gate of the community, Gu Yibei was still worried, so he followed him upstairs and sent him to the door.
Seeing a man taking care of her like he was taking care of a child, Ji Zhinan looked at him helplessly: "I'm already at the doorstep, what else is there to worry about?"
Gu Yibei rubbed her head and replied patiently: "I'll leave after you go in."
Having known him for so long, Ji Zhinan also knows Gu Yibei's temper very well, and whatever he says is what it is.
He turned his head and slid the electronic lock, ready to enter the password to enter the house.
However, after sliding the electronic lock several times, it still didn't light up.
"What's wrong?" Gu Yibei noticed something was wrong.
"I don't know." Ji Zhinan was still fiddling with it: "I don't know what's wrong, it hasn't been lit yet."
If the button is not lit, you cannot enter the password, and you cannot enter without the password.
After making sure it really didn't work, she placed her index finger on the fingerprint unlock, but there was still no movement.
"It seems the power is out."
After a long while, Ji Zhinan finally said.
The good thing about electronic locks is that you don't need a key, but the bad thing is that if the electronic lock is out of power, you can't even get into the house.
This was the first time Ji Zhinan encountered such a situation. He turned his head and stared at the man eagerly: "What should I do?"
Gu Yibei carefully checked the electronic lock, then turned around, took her hand and walked towards the elevator.
"……What's wrong?"
"Come back with me to the Nine Brocade Platinum Palace. I'll have someone come and repair it tomorrow."
“…” It seems like this is the only way now.
