Mu Xi took a deep look at Ji Yunshen, her voice was as calm and gentle as ever "I did go to Syria with Tong Qin, and I did see Qiao Man, but I only met Qiao man once and gave up the space to her and Tong Qin. Then, I went back to my country. As for what Tong Qin said to her, whether she was pregnant or whether it was your child, I don't know! "
"Xiao Shen, I know you don't like what I said, but Qiao man probably came back this time to take revenge on you by playing hard to get and sowing discord. She also wanted to take revenge for what the JI family did to her back then, and even destroyed your people and career! "
"Tong Qin died in the fire. There's no evidence to prove her death. That's why Qiao man said so casually. Anyway, no one can prove her lies... "
"Mom... "
Before Mu Xi could finish her sentence, she was interrupted by Ji Yunshen's low and hoarse voice "I'm asking you now because I believe in you. I believe that you won't join hands with Tong Qin to kill man man and then leave Tong Qin as a chess piece. "
Ji Yunshen's gaze was very deep, as deep as the endless sea. He could not see the end of it at all.
He stared at Mu Xi without blinking. Although there was no expression on his chiseled handsome face, for some reason, it made people feel an inexplicable sense of fear.
"otherwise, how would you know that Tong Qin died in the fire? Didn't you say that after you gave the space to man man and Tong Qin, you immediately returned to the country? "
Ji Yunshen said indifferently and coldly. He sank his broad back into the back of the SOFA and became more and more lazy "There's one more thing. Don't you think you should explain it Why are you with Tong Qin She was missing in the huge collapse accident. The search and rescue team had searched the building for a month, but they couldn't even find a piece of her clothes. How did you find her?"
"Of course, we don't have to talk about this. Let's talk about it first. Man Man has already chosen to leave. Why did you agree to go to Syria with her to find man man? Did you guys work together, or did you use Tong Qin? "
Mu Xi's eyes flickered. She reached out and tucked her hair behind her ear to hide the change in her expression.
"Also, what exactly happened to the fire? What are you hiding from me? Ah, tell me! "
Ji Yunshen's voice suddenly increased, shocking Mu Xi so much that her entire body trembled. She looked up in a daze. Her eyes were already filled with tears, but they were not turbulent. They were very calm.
"Xiao Shen, since you suspect mother, then go investigate. MOTHER HAS NOTHING TO SAY! "
Ji Yunshen lowered his head and smiled. He took out a cigarette box from his pocket and lit it up. He took a deep breath and said, "mom, just like you said, Tong Qin died in the fire. No matter how much I continue to investigate, what can I find out? Nothing can be verified! "
"But... "
He paused and gradually narrowed his eyes behind the greenish-white smoke. "If she... is not dead, then things are different! "
Mu Xi raised her delicate eyebrows. A second ago, there was no emotion in her eyes. She quickly rolled her eyes and said, "not dead? How can she not be dead? "
Ji Yunshen's dark eyes reflected her figure. She saw her panic in his eyes. She immediately looked away and explained calmly "I went to Syria with her, but she didn't come back for a long time. Out of curiosity, I asked someone to find out. I heard that she was burnt to charcoal in the fire. I also found the ring on her finger and confirmed that it was her! "
"It's just a ring. What can it prove? Have you tested the DNA? Have you confirmed that the charred body is Tong Qin? "
Ji Yunshen stared at the change in Mu Xi's expression. After a while, he continued, "mom, tell me honestly. What are you trying to cover up? "
"NOTHING! "
Mu Xi suddenly stood up. She took a few seconds to pause before she slowly said, "it's nothing. " "Xiao Shen, since you're willing to give up your bright future for Qiao Man and your family that you've been with for many years, I won't say anything more for your own good. I'm sure you won't listen to me either. Maybe your father and grandfather should die. In that case, no one can stop you and Qiao Man Anymore! "
After Mu Xi finished speaking, she picked up the handbag on the SOFA. Before she turned around, she heard Ji Yunshen speaking coldly on the Sofa "Mom, you don't have to provoke me with these words, because my heart is already dead. It has been gouged out by those things that you said were good for me. From now on, I will take control of my own life. Please manage your relationship with dad well, and also your beloved acting career. Don't try to control my life anymore... ". "...". "..."
"really, I don't need it! "
The short hair on JI yunshen's forehead cast a large shadow on his face "I don't need you to treat me this way, and I don't need you to help me choose the best life for me. You won't be able to accompany me for my entire life! "
In the past, she always felt that no matter what her son did for her, she was willing to do it. After all, she was doing it for his own good!
She also knew her son very well. She knew that he didn't like to talk about life with his elders, and he never tried to get close to them. It was probably because she and Ji Ming had been very careless about his life and care ever since they were young It had resulted in his indifferent and awkward personality.
But even so, she had never thought that one day she would become a burden in his eyes.
Or to be more precise, he had never acted excessively because of what they had done. On the surface, he looked indifferent and cold, but on the inside, he valued his feelings more than anyone else. He did not want his seemingly perfect family and life to fall apart because of him He did not want his family and life to fall apart because of him.
Perhaps it was because the more he tolerated them, the more they wanted more.
Especially after Qiao man had touched his bottom line, he began to feel that warning could no longer solve the real problem, and he could no longer use warning as an excuse to wait for death. He was no longer afraid of anything, he was changing, completely changing.
"Xiao Shen, have you ever thought that we are your family, Qiao Man is not! "
Mu Xi did not turn around. She felt that as a mother, she must be in a terrible state!
"Mom, I'm very grateful to you and dad for giving me life. But all these years, you, Dad, and GRANDPA have been working hard for their own careers. The only ones who have really stayed by my side are grandma and Haner. They have given me a lot of comfort when I'm lonely. You say that you're my family, but doesn't family need to be accompanied? "
"Qiao Man may not be good enough. She has many schemes and schemes. She may only love my power and money now, but what does that have to do with anything? I like the feeling of being with her and the way she likes me. "
"Mom, think about it carefully. What kind of perfect person am I? Other than having money and power that people envy, what else do I have? "
"My personality is not good enough, and I value relationships very much. When I make a choice, I will always leave her behind. Just like what she said, I do love her very much, but it's all under so many conditions. But she doesn't. She treats relationships very seriously, and she really loved me without reservation. It's just that I didn't give her the same response, which made her feel disheartened and turn around to leave! "
Ji Yunshen leaned over and put out the cigarette in his hand in the Ashtray on the coffee table. "And mom, this is definitely not a warning! "
Mu Xi closed her eyes. When she opened them, warm liquid flowed out of her eyes. She said, "Xiao Shen, mom, Dad, and GRANDPA just don't want you to be with Qiao Man. She really doesn't deserve you. "
"We thought that you would give up after she died in the fire in Syria, but we never expected that you would search for her for as long as she died! "
She sighed deeply "But it's no longer important now. What's important is that we don't have too much of a request for you now. We just hope that you can find a woman of equal status with a gentle personality who will take care of you. Is that too much? " "Isn't it too much? "
Mu Xi did not continue. Instead, she lifted her high heels and continued walking out. When her hand touched the door handle, she paused for a few seconds and said another sentence "Xiao Shen, do you think that we're just being nice to you? But if Qiao Man is really nice, why do we have to be the bad guys to break up the two of you? "
"When we get home, I'll explain it to your father and grandfather. But you also know that they've spent their whole lives in politics and have high hopes for you. You don't need me to tell you how disappointed they will be if you do this all of a sudden! "
"The road ahead is very difficult. Think about it carefully! "
Mu Xi pursed her lips and continued, "Xiao Shen, people don't have to have unforgettable love when they're alive. Sometimes, it's also a kind of happiness to be suitable! "
Then, Mu Xi reached out and opened the door. Ji Han stood by the door. On the early spring night, she was shivering and wearing very little clothes.
Seeing Mu Xi walk out, Ji Han quickly walked up to her. "Mom, how's the... conversation with AH SHEN GOING? "
Mu Xi's eyes were very light. When she saw Ji Han, her absent-minded expression changed slightly. Then, she reached out and rubbed Ji Han's hair. She said in a flat tone, "the conversation broke down! "
"Then what should we do? "
Mu Xi lowered her eyes and thought for a few seconds. Her tone was still indifferent "Han 'er, for so many years, you and Xiao Shen have been very close. Help ME PERSUADE HIM! " "If he insists on doing things his way, your father and grandfather will definitely not stand by and watch. If it was said that five years ago, they gave each other a way out so that they wouldn't force each other into a corner, but this time it's different. Xiao Shen has changed! "
Ji Han nodded heavily after hearing that. "okay, mom, I'LL TRY MY BEST! ''
"right, Han 'er, Xiao Shen just told me... that Tong Qin might not be dead. Do you know about this? "
Ji Han's clear eyes were filled with shock. "I don't know. She's not dead? How is that possible? "
Mu Xi saw that she did not know anything about it, so she did not say anything more.
"Forget it if you don't know. Maybe Xiao Shen was just testing me just now to see my reaction. "
Ji Han's pair of arms were so soft that they seemed to have no bones. She hugged her arms tightly. "Mom, you don't have to worry too much. Ah Shen might just be obsessed for a moment. When this novelty wears off, he will know WHO LOVES HIM THE MOST! "
Mu Xi Hummed in agreement. Then, she raised the watch on her left wrist and looked at the time before continuing "Han 'er, mom still has to rush back to Lin city. Stay here and persuade Xiao Shen. If anything happens, call me immediately, okay? "
"Okay, I got it! "
Mu Xi smiled and nodded. Then, she left in her seven-centimeter high heels.
Ji Yunshen returned to the wine cabinet and brought the wine bottle over. When he looked up, he saw Ji Han in a white dress at the door.
The door was not closed. Her hands were hanging in front of her, and she was a little hesitant. "Ah Shen, mother still has some matters to attend to and has to return to forest city first. I still have some matters to attend to in the capital. Can I stay in your apartment for two nights? "
"Sure! "
JI yunshen placed the wine bottle on the coffee table in front of the SOFA. His movements were extremely lazy, and then his tall figure sat down as well. "You stay here, I'll stay at the hotel! "
Ji Han was still immersed in his response a second ago, but in this second, it was as if she had fallen into a deep pool. Her entire body was bone-piercing cold.
"How can that be good? "
Ji Han hurriedly waved her hand and quietly walked over. "This is your apartment. How can I chase you out to stay in a hotel while I'm staying here? It's better for me to stay in the hotel myself! "
She walked over and picked up her handbag that had just been placed on the SOFA. After thinking for two seconds, she still sat beside him, but there was some distance between them.
"Ah Shen, one of the reasons why I stayed is because I have some things to do in the capital. The other is because of you. Mother wants me to persuade you... "
Before Ji Han could finish, Ji Yunshen interrupted her, "there's no need. I know my own matters very well! "
After saying this, he stood up and looked down at her. "It's dangerous for a girl to stay in a hotel. It's better for me to go. Just remember to lock the door for me when you leave! "
He didn't say anything else. Instead, he raised his feet and walked towards the door!
Ji Han bit her lip. After he took two steps, she suddenly ran over and wrapped her arms around his skinny waist from behind. "Ah Shen, don't go. Stay with me, okay? "
"Han 'er, let go! "
"I won't let go! " Ji Han's voice was choked with sobs. "Shen, I can't forget you. I don't want to forget you. Can you come back? I'll try my best to change myself and become the way you like me, okay? "
Ji Yunshen reached out to grab the pair of soft and slender arms on his waist, but she hugged him even tighter, as if she was using all her strength.
"Shen, don't push me away. Don't reject me, okay? "
Ji Yunshen's brows furrowed slightly, but he still used his strength to pull her away from his back and turned to face her.
Ji Han's pitch-black eyes were filled with tears. Under the light of the Crystal Chandelier in the living room, they were so clear that they were somewhat dazzling.
"Han 'er, I've already told you everything that happened between us five years ago when Qiao man and I were married. Believe me, you don't love me, nor do you have to love me. You just don't want to accept it! "
He was very calm, and every word carried a deep power "I don't want to accept that I've been by your side for ten years, and that I suddenly fell in love with someone else. I don't want to accept that Xin Qiao treated me so badly, but I'm completely devoted to her. I'm even more unwilling to accept that I'm divorced now, but I'm not willing to accept you again. I can understand all of this. After all, we're both ordinary people. It's impossible for US TO BE PERFECT! "
"But Han 'er, no matter what happens between us, whether we're divorced or not, she's the only one in my heart
"You're still very young. You still have a long way to go in your relationship. Don't let me delay your youth and weaken your lover's ability! "
His face was filled with a warm and cold smile, but it also seemed to carry a deep sense of sarcasm.
Her hands gripped tightly onto the handbag in her hands. Her voice was still so light that it didn't weigh much. "Ah Shen, what's wrong with you? I feel that you've been acting strangely towards me recently
"In the past, although you kept your distance from me, you wouldn't be so cold and sarcastic. Are you blaming me Are you blaming me for delaying your youth and your lover's ability because I can't let you go, causing you to feel burdened and guilty Or... ... Have you misunderstood me?"
Ji Han raised her head slightly and looked at his chiseled handsome face. "Ah Shen, it's already been so long. Why don't we just talk things out? I'll feel better this way, and you'll feel better too, right? "
Ji Yunshen's gaze was still very deep as it landed on her face with an imposing aura. "That's fine too! "
He withdrew his gaze from her face and walked to the French window, giving her a cold back view "when grandma fell down the stairs back then, I found the perfume liquid on the carpet of the old residence. It's the same brand that you often use. Moreover, the composition of the PSYCHEDELIC drug was extracted from the perfume liquid. "
"other than that, the glucocorticoid that man man injected grandma back then also found the composition of the drug that caused psychedelic drug. "
Ji Yunshen's voice was very low, as if it had blended into the endless night sky by the window "Han 'er, we grew up together. You like to eat vegetarian and pray to Buddha. On the pilgrimage, you often kowtow three times and nine times. You are the most devout pilgrim on the road. I believe that you won't lie, and you don't want to lie! "
Ji Han stared at his back. She did not approach him, nor did she make any movements. She just watched and waited.
Ji Yunshen put one hand on the glass and slightly lowered his head. From this angle, Ji Han behind him could not see the emotions on his face.
"Let me ask you something today. Does Grandma's death have anything to do with you? "
The handbag in Ji Han's hand fell to the ground almost at the same time as he spoke. Her entire body began to tremble. "Ah Shen, what did Qiao man say to you? Is that why you're starting to doubt me? "
"Han 'er, I only need you to answer me. Yes or no? It has nothing to do with anyone else. Answer my question! "
Although his voice was low, one could clearly hear the pain contained within it.
It was a kind of heartache after being deceived by his most trusted and closest family member.
"No! "
Ji Han's voice was very pure. "No one in this world loves grandma more than I do. I can't even take care of her in time. How could I hurt her? "
"Han 'er, sometimes, you need to use a hundred or even a thousand lies to cover up a lie! " Ji Yunshen slowly raised his head and slowly turned around to face Ji Han "Ever since Jiang Meng's accident, you've changed a lot. You're not like yourself at all! "
"Han 'er, you should take a good look at yourself in the mirror and see if you're really the same person you were back then! "
Ji Yunshen had already said what he wanted to say. He had already done all the guesses and tests that he needed to do. The next step was to dig deeper.
He did not even look at her again. He lifted his leg and walked towards the door. Before he could walk past her, her small hand grabbed his big hand. Then, her gentle voice rang in his ear.
"Ah Shen, I haven't changed. I'm still the same Ji Han from back then. The Ji Han who only loves you wholeheartedly! "
"Is it? " Ji Yunshen's big hand pulled out from her small hand, looked down at her one eye, "All I know is that back then, even if Ji Han was timid and afraid of losing her status as the adopted daughter of the JI family, she wouldn't have any animosity towards anyone else, nor would she let herself sink into the Mire of love. Because you were good enough, and you were good enough to find a better man, but in the end...
He paused for a few seconds before continuing, "Han 'er, you've changed, so much so that I can't recognize you... "
"So, during this period of time, you deliberately ignored me, didn't answer my calls, didn't reply to my messages and Wechat messages, and even avoided me when you went back to the old mansion. It's because you think that I've changed and that I'm the culprit behind this. I'm the one who made Qiao man take the blame. So, you don't want to see me, and you've even reached the point where you don't want to talk to me anymore, is that right? "
Ji Yunshen's pair of big hands stuffed into his pockets, and his gaze became even more profound "Five years ago, in order to fight with my grandfather, I neglected grandma, neglected my family, and even more so, you, who wanted to commit suicide, did not stay by man man's side, causing her to bleed heavily on the hospital bed alone. In the end, due to prolonged lack of oxygen, I gave birth to a child with congenital heart disease! "
"I have done so much for you, but why didn't you see anything? You only saw how good I was to Qiao man and how bad Qiao man was to me. Why did she hate me so much and treat me so badly? Shouldn't you know better than me? "
"Han 'er, to be fair, if you and Qiao man had switched roles back then, what would you have done when you faced me today? "
"She's not good to me now. It's only natural that she hates me so much. I don't have any complaints, and I hope that all of you don't have any complaints and feel uncomfortable! "
Ji Han kept looking up at him. His tall figure was still so tall that it made people feel pressured, making it difficult for them to breathe.
"and Han 'er, I've already thrown away my guilt towards you, and I hope that you can throw away your feelings towards me. I don't owe you anything anymore. Of course, you don't owe me anything either! "
