The evening glow seeped through the windows. On the dark-colored floor, large patches of orange-red shadows fell, dragging the shadows of the three people long.

Zhou Lanqing was wearing a dark-blue embroidered shawl. The back of the shawl hung down to her waist. The luxurious color set off her entire temperament, making her even more graceful and difficult to approach.

It could be described with just two words. It was intimidating to look at.

At this age, she was so solemn, and every move she made was filled with an aura of power without anger.

She crossed her arms elegantly across her chest and raised her eyebrows unconsciously. "Why is she here? "

She didn't mention her name, but everyone in the room, including the Cook, knew that this "she" referred to Qiao Man who was standing beside Ji Yunshen.

She asked this because at this time, he should have already prepared to go to the airport. Even if he came back to say goodbye to his family, he would never bring Qiao man back.

He clearly did this because he did not intend to leave.

As for the reason, it was very simple. It was because of the girl standing beside him.

She had raised him since he was young. She knew his temperament and character better than anyone else, and her way of doing things.

She also knew clearly how devoted he would be to someone he loved.

Even if he stood on the opposite side of everyone, even if he became enemies with the entire world, he would not hesitate.

Han 'er was the same, and Qiao man was the same today.

Qiao Man's fair and gentle face did not have any emotions on it. She did not avoid Zhou Lanqing's gaze, not even the slightest bit.

Before she could say anything, the man beside her stretched out his long arm and pulled her into his warm and firm embrace. Then, a deep and sexy voice rang out in the dead silence of the living room. It did not seem like an explanation "Han 'Er has something to tell me. I'm worried that she will go back on her own. "

When Zhou Lanqing heard this, her brows were almost knitted together. Her pair of turbid and sharp eyes looked at the retro clock on the wall through the layers of afterglow in the living room. The needle on the clock was already pointing to 5:02 pm.

"If I remember correctly, you were on the 7:00 PM flight. "

"Yes, I applied for maternity leave. Man Man is pregnant. "

As she said that, she held Qiao Man's arm and walked upstairs. Her words and actions were no longer as respectful as before. It was obvious that she wanted to completely break away from her restraints and shackles.

Just as she walked past Zhou Lanqing, she heard a slightly disappointed and even disappointed voice. "Ji Yunshen, what's your attitude? ''

Zhou Lanqing turned around and looked at the back of the man and woman who were a few steps away "The political situation in our country is treacherous and unpredictable. Your grandfather has been fighting with people almost all the time in the capital. This is a battlefield without any smoke, competing to see who can be more careful and decisive in killing, but what about you You're simply losing your will to play with things!"

There had never been a quarrel, or rather, it had never been in front of everyone because of her quarrel.

To be honest, Qiao man had a little hope that Zhou Lanqing could subdue him like in the past, so that everyone would be happy.

However, there was also a tiny bit of hope. She hoped that Ji Yunshen would be able to live for her once, even if it was just once, even if it was not because of her.

However, these were only thoughts that flashed through her mind in an instant. Soon after, she returned to her initial calm and nothing else.

Her gaze had nowhere to rest. She inadvertently raised her eyes and saw a white skirt at the corner of the stairs, hidden in the shadows.

This scene really caused a moment of malice to arise in her mind. She wanted Ji Yunshen and Zhou Lanqing's argument to force her to reveal herself, but she felt that it was too early. There were still many things that she needed to prove. She needed time to prove them.

Because of Zhou Lanqing's words, the tall man next to her stiffened slightly. After a few seconds, or even more than ten seconds, he returned to normal.

The large hand that was wrapped around her thin and small shoulders moved slightly. The hot temperature shifted along with the movement of his large hand. It passed through his clothes into his body once again, causing her to cower slightly.

When the word 'defend' formed in her mind, she could hardly believe it.

He had probably never been so unyielding in front of Zhou Lanqing. Of course, it could also be said that he had never been so unyielding in front of Zhou Lanqing for her sake.

Therefore, when he did this, the only thing she could think of, even the only thing she could think of, was the word 'protect' .

It could also make her truly feel that he was doing his best to protect her.

The man tilted his head, leaving Zhou Lanqing with only a cold side profile. He said, "Grandma, previously, I respected you and was afraid of hurting you. I was even more concerned about your body. Therefore, even if you went a little overboard, even if you exceeded my bottom line, I would endure it again and again. However, grandma, you taught me that falling down twice in one place is not carelessness at all, but stupidity

"I know that you're doing this for my own good, but there are some things that I'm sorry, you can't make decisions for me anymore! "

As soon as she finished speaking, she did not listen to what Zhou Lanqing had to say anymore. She directly held Qiao man and walked towards the stairs.

When the man held her and walked forward, she subconsciously glanced at the corner of the stairs. There was nothing there anymore.

His steps were very big, and she needed to take small steps backwards to keep up with his footsteps.

Sometimes, being moved did not require him to do anything earth-shattering for you. It probably only required him to make changes for you.

And this kind of change was a change that you thought he couldn't make.

After going upstairs, Ji Yunshen brought Qiao man into the room that he had kept in the old mansion. He held her hand until they walked to the bedside. Then, he spoke gently and gently "I'm going to find Han 'er. Lock the door of the room and sleep for a while. Or play a mobile game. Wait for me. I'll be back soon. "

"I'll go with you. "

"No need. You'll go with me. Even if she wants to say something, she won't say it. "

She didn't know if it was because the lights weren't on in the room, but only the shadows of the lights were reflected from outside the floor-to-ceiling window, or because he was standing against the light, his figure was surrounded by dark black. She felt that he had grown taller.

He was also more unfathomable.

"Okay, I got it! "

The man didn't say anything more. He gave her a deep look before leaving the room.

The lights of the garden outside the window swayed with the night wind.

After a few seconds, the girl stood up. She walked to the door and locked it. Then she walked to the bed next to the floor-to-ceiling window. She sat down and looked out of the window.

She looked into the distance as far as her eyes could see. There was a continuous Black Mountain Shadow and a sea of red wine and green wine that was connected to the lights of the city.

It was a bustling scene, but it made more cold memories appear in her heart. She stopped looking.

A few seconds later, she lifted the quilt and crawled into the quilt. For some reason, her mind was filled with the scene of him and Zhou Lanqing confronting each other downstairs. She could not shake it off and could not throw it away until the phone next to her pillow vibrated Only then did she break free from that scene.

She glanced at the caller ID on the screen that lit up, and the next second, she swiped the answer button. Then, a slightly hoarse male voice was heard "Hello, Miss Qiao. I'm now confirming the flight information with you. Two weeks ago, you customized a private itinerary from our company to have flight information for flight K-1127 from forest city via Turkey. It finally arrived at the Syrian capital, Damascus International Airport. Are you sure about this? "

"Yes! "

"Then when do we leave? The nearest class is tomorrow. "

"We'll probably have to delay it for a while. Keep it for me first. If there's a need, I'll call you at any time. "

"okay, Miss Qiao. I wish you a happy life. Goodbye. "

"Okay, goodbye. "

The quiet light outside the window seemed to have turned into a hypnotic prop at this moment. Her eyelids became heavier and heavier.

She was too tired, and coupled with her complicated thoughts, she quickly fell asleep.

...

Ji Yunshen walked out of the room. After hearing that the door had been locked from the inside, he strode steadily towards Ji Han's room.

He had just walked halfway when he was stopped by Zhou Lanqing who was walking up from downstairs. He was forced to stop and look at Zhou Lanqing who was a few meters away.

"I have something to talk to you about. Come with me to the study. "

His tone was no longer so tough that it could not be discussed. It was even too calm.

His exquisite brows and eyes were covered with a thick shadow. After two seconds, he took a step and walked towards the study.

When he walked in, Zhou Lanqing was already standing by the floor-to-ceiling window of the study. She was looking at the colorful lights outside the window. In the dim light, her hale and hearty body actually had a hint of decadence and old age.

He turned around and closed the door. He did not realize that the moment he closed the door and turned around, the door gently opened again. However, it was just a small gap. If one did not observe carefully, it would be very difficult to notice.

The man's footsteps were heavy. He had just approached when he was hit in the face by Zhou Lanqing's slap that turned around.

"Ji Yunshen, did you receive a higher education since you were young just to disobey me when our JI family was in the most difficult time? "

The political world was now divided into two parts. The different forces and groups that supported each other were all competing in the dark. At this time, even one wrong word could cause the JI family to fall into eternal damnation.

Special Times required special treatment.

She did not expect him to be so reckless because of a woman.

Ji Yunshen did not move. He did not even frown. He only said lightly, "grandma, you are still old. This slap is not painful or Itchy to me. "

"You... "

Zhou Lanqing angrily raised her hand and slapped him again. Her graceful face was already filled with horror.

She reached out and put the Cape that had already slipped down on her shoulder again. She tidied up her hair again, and her voice returned to its usual Languid and casual tone. "Xiao Shen, grandma will ask you again. Are you going or not? "

"If I am just a pawn in the so-called JI family's political achievements, then whether I go or not doesn't seem to have much meaning. Anyway, I am just doing it for others to see! "

"You're not going, are you? "

Zhou Lanqing took a deep breath, turned around, and walked around the desk. Her fingers slid across the surface of the desk and gently stroked it. "If you really want to stay, then I can only ask han-er to help you form a marriage alliance with the Lu family. "

Everyone in Lin city knew that the Lu family's eldest young master, Lu Yubai, liked Ji Han, but everyone knew that Lu Yubai had a wide range of hobbies. Changing women was like changing clothes, and there was no one who didn't think that he would be able to do it.

Not to mention marrying such a man, han-er might not even be able to stand the simple interaction.

"Grandma, are you forcing me to compromise? "

"If you think so, then so be it! "

Ji Yunshen habitually rubbed the wedding ring on his right hand. His voice was still as flat as ever. "Grandma, you won't. You love Han 'er so much. "

"really? Do I love her? "

Zhou Lanqing laughed softly as if she had heard a funny joke. "since you think so, then I might as well tell you now. She's in my heart. "

Ji Han had a salty dinner that night and wanted to go downstairs to drink some water. Just as she walked out of her room, she heard a soft voice coming from the study room.

She walked over and saw a crack in the study room door. Without even thinking, she leaned close to the door.

"What about Ji Han? She's just an adopted daughter of our JI family. In my heart, she's not even as good as a dog... "

Zhou Lanqing's voice was very clear and cold. It was like the biting cold wind in a world of ice and snow that blew into her heart.

Her Grandmother, who had doted on her for ten years, actually said to another person that she was worse than a dog in her heart.

This feeling was like you were betrayed and abandoned by the whole world, but you still thought that she was the only one who was genuinely good to you, so you never had any doubts.

But in this second, the sudden pain of thousands of arrows piercing through her heart almost made it difficult for her to breathe, and even her heartbeat seemed to stop for a few seconds.

"Grandmother, do you know what you are saying? "

Ji Han, who was standing outside the door eavesdropping, was not the only one who was stunned. Ji Yunshen, who was standing opposite Zhou Lanqing, was already slightly stiff.

"Of course I know what I'm saying. So, Xiao Shen, you have to make a choice. Is it Qiao man or han-er? "

If he wanted Qiao man to stay, Ji Han would have to marry into the Lu family, whether she was willing or not.

If he did not want han-er to marry into the Lu family, he would have to follow his previous promise and become the commander of the 38th army in the capital city. That would be equivalent to indirectly giving up on Qiao Man.

"So, grandma, you would rather see your grandson in pain than continue to insist on doing things your own way? "

"Yes, if pain can wake you up, I would rather you suffer. "

In that one second, the entire world seemed to have become dead silent.

For more than ten seconds, half a minute, or even longer, no one spoke again.

Ji Yunshen's hands hanging by his side slightly clenched into fists. He did not even know what to say or make the right expression.

After a long time, when his entire body was stiff to the point that he could not move, he finally looked at Zhou Lanqing, who was standing in the dim light.

This grandma was a stranger he had never seen before.

"Grandma, we are talking about Han 'er, the Han 'er that you have loved since young. "
