dear husband please stop
Chapter 113 [1 words of exciting additions]
But at this moment, Ji Xinyao didn't answer any more, because Gu Nanxi had already walked over slowly and was standing behind Wen Qing.
She didn't know how to open her mouth to remind Wen Qing, and in fact she didn't want to.
There are no fairy tales in the adult world, everyone has to pay the price for what they have done.
"Ji Xinyao, Nancy listened to her grandfather so much that she could even give up his most beloved Shanying back then, and returned from Boston to abandon business and politics. But now, who do you think you are? Nancy is nothing more than a responsibility to you , if you hadn't designed such a bed scene to use public opinion to force marriage, I'm afraid you would never get to know someone like Nancy in your life!"
"Also, I want to tell you that as long as there is grandpa around for a day, you will never be recognized in the Gu family! Before you get out of the Gu family, you will never have a good life!" Wen Qing looked at her with a faint smile, He stretched out his hand suddenly, snatched the bottle of champagne from her hand, turned around with a sneer, and was about to leave.
But as soon as he turned around, he took a step back abruptly and looked at Gu Nanxi who had calm eyes in surprise.
"Nan...Nanxi..." She looked at him in panic and frowned slightly, and quickly explained: "I was joking with Xinyao just now, don't get me wrong..."
As she said that, she suddenly turned around and pointed at Ji Xinyao: "It's her, she deliberately said something to annoy me, I, I said such ugly things, I was just joking with her!"
Gu Nanxi remained silent, quietly watching her directing and acting in a one-man show there.
"Nancy, you have to trust me..." She reached out and grabbed his arm, holding his arms tightly and shaking them gently like a baby.
"Wen Qing." Gu Nanxi's tightly pursed lips moved slightly: "Now let me tell you that I came back from Boston not because of my grandfather. And although my marriage started with responsibility, it will end with love. As for you It is absolutely not going to happen that Ji Xinyao will get out of the Gu family."
Wen Qing's hand on his arm froze, her red lips trembled slightly, and she looked at the faint coldness in his eyes and his disappointment in her in disbelief.
She suddenly bit her lip hard, and slowly put down her hand, her eyes were full of grievances, tears pooled in her eyes, her voice was choked and trembling: "Grandpa will not tolerate her...you are going against grandpa...he is already old At this age, how can you go against his mind and fight against him like this, in case grandpa..."
"If you don't want grandpa to be angry, you know what to do." His eyes fell on her, but there was no warmth, as if he had always known that Wen Qing was wayward and ignorant, but he never thought of her under that docile appearance It's such a thought.
And the meaning of his words is obvious, as long as Wen Qing doesn't continue to provoke in the middle, grandpa will accept Ji Xinyao sooner or later.
Wen Qing's lips were turned white by her biting, her eyes were full of tears, she just looked at him like this without blinking: "Nancy, we have known each other for 23 years, since I was left in the Gu family when I was still a baby , you have loved me so much for the whole 23 years, even in those years when you were studying in the United States, you would often send me things that I liked, I thought I was always important in your heart, but now, I even Is Ji Xinyao inferior?"
"I have always treated you and Yufei equally." He said slowly.
Wen Qing's face turned pale for a moment, she turned her eyes suddenly, and her resentful eyes fell on Ji Xinyao.
It seems that all the sadness and loss, all the mistakes, and all the things that have been imposed on her Wen Qing now are the result of Ji Xinyao's appearance.
Ji Xinyao met Shang Wen Qing's eyes full of resentment, without ridicule, sarcasm, or sympathy.
The slap she received for no reason at the beginning should be paid back, right?But Gu Nanxi's words hit her more seriously than the actual slap in the face.
Because Gu Nanxi's opinion is what Wen Qing cares about most, and Gu Nanxi's heart is what Wen Qing wants most, and Gu Nanxi's indifference at this time is the ultimate punishment for her .
"You don't have to be proud." Suddenly, Wen Qing showed her a bleak smile as if a jar had been broken, but her gaze was mixed with resentment: "Gu Nanxi will never fall in love with you, what do you say starts with marriage, Finally in love? Ji Xinyao, I’m waiting for the day when you fail miserably! Even if you are honest, you still don’t have much weight in his heart after all! The woman who is really on the tip of Nancy’s heart is standing there, and you, Not worth mentioning at all."
Wen Qing pointed her finger in the direction of Shanlao and Shanying, her eyes were filled with resolute hatred, when Ji Xinyao never looked away, just kept looking at her, she suddenly smiled coldly, and turned to look at Gu who was frowning tightly. Nancy: "With Shan Ying here, I want to see how you and Ji Xinyao finally fell in love! From the Gu family to everyone who knows you well, is there anyone who doesn't know what Shan Ying represents to you?" what is..."
"Enough!" Gu Nanxi drank suddenly, with frost in her brows.
"Do you think marriage is just a game?" He looked at Wen Qing's reddish eyes seriously like a majestic elder brother, and his words could no longer indulge her sharpness like a blade: "My marriage does not need your words like this A solid evaluation, you need to reorganize your own life, if it continues to be so messy, maybe the first person who can't tolerate you is the grandfather who loves you the most!"
"I'm just curious..." Wen Qing seemed to have already achieved this step, and she no longer wanted to maintain her obedient, considerate and well-mannered image, and said with a sneer, "What is the reason for you who love you so much? , then resolutely leave Boston, and never even set foot in Boston for five years?"
Wen Qing's eyes were full of resentment, unwillingness, and deep hatred, and she continued without stopping: "I also heard that back then..."
Gu Nanxi turned around slowly, staring at her with faint and cold eyes, although she didn't speak, her eyes were enough to shock her and her heart trembled.
However, Ji Xinyao listened to all this in her heart and saw it in her eyes. She always felt that what she wanted to know the most would often be deliberately hidden or interrupted. She wanted to try her best not to remember these things, but all of them were As if it was completely irrelevant to her, as if she was always just an outsider, those past events that everyone knew, she didn't know, those that belonged to Gu Nanxi, the past that she had no time to participate in for the rest of her life, at this moment To her, it was like a huge barrier, solidifying all her emotions, and even her breathing began to become somewhat dignified.
But what is she dissatisfied with?
Gu Nanxi's tenderness to her, protection of her, thoughtfulness and care for her can't be faked. Maybe everyone is like this. They were all burned by the love they once had, leaving only their bones. How many years of his deep love and devotion in the United States, or her lingering love for An Yueze in the past four years, but in exchange for a tragic failure in the end, no matter who has loved so deeply, then You will find that you are no longer able to love.
Even if they still love, they have become cautious, and they can no longer be as desperate as moths to a flame.
And Gu Nanxi is very good to her, what else can she not be satisfied with?
She tried hard to open the corners of her lips to smile, as if she didn't feel anything about what Wenqing said in front of her deliberately, she should be satisfied, why bother to ask for so much?She doesn't want a famous family, no glory and wealth, she just wants a stable life, that's all, even if Gu Nanxi can't give her love, she is enough.
She, Ji Shenyao, will never be hit by any outside people or things. She has been tempered since she was a child, and she may be temporarily excited and at a loss when facing happy things, but when faced with such things as slander and Wen Qing When deliberately stimulated by words, he can calmly smile.
Wen Qing didn't say any more, she stared at Gu Nanxi for a while, then turned and left with red eyes.
"Don't take Wen Qing's words to heart, she is spoiled just like Cheng Cheng." Seeing Ji Xinyao standing there calmly, Gu Nanxi said in a warm voice, walked over slowly, and hung her on the left A strand of hair on the side of her cheek was tucked behind her ear, and there was incomparably natural concern in her eyes.
"I didn't take it to heart. I know she is the same as Ji Chengcheng, otherwise, how could they be good sisters?" She smiled and said, "My heart has always been magnanimous. That time at Gu's house, I would directly make her feel restless."
There was a helpless smile in Gu Nanxi's eyes, she half-circled her body, and rubbed her head with her hands naturally, with unconcealable love and tenderness in her eyes.
The mood that I had tried to comfort myself was still gloomy, but because of his natural actions as if pampering me, I felt a little more comfortable. Several dignitaries who knew them walked by, and their eyes were full of ambiguous smiles , she couldn't help blushing for a while, and reached out to push him away, but in the end she was firmly hugged by him.
The intimacy between the two of them made the passing dignitaries and his wife smile and say, "Mayor Gu and his wife are really in love. When will the wedding be held? Let's prepare red envelopes!"
Gu Nanxi smiled lightly, not only did not let go of her hands on Ji Xinyaoran, but instead pressed her into her arms, she said with a smile: "Recently, we have started preparing for the wedding, and we will notify you when the date is fixed, Director Li You must bring your wife to enjoy the honor and participate."
"Okay, okay, you must notify us when you get married! The mayor and his wife are so loving, but you must do it as soon as possible, otherwise you may have children someday, and it will be painful for the bride to wear a wedding dress~" Director Li All smiles.
"Look at what you said, the mayor and his wife are just newly married. Young people nowadays don't want to have children so soon. The mayor's wife, the bride, must be well-dressed~" Director Li's wife pinched her next to her. husband.
"That's not necessarily true. When you were wearing your wedding dress, didn't you have our son in your belly? It's because you are young that you are easy to conceive." Director Li joked. 13acv.
Director Li's wife was in her forties, she felt a little embarrassed at once, and gave her husband a sideways glance, which resulted in a hearty smile from Director Li.
Hearing what they said, Ji Xinyao also blushed slightly, until Director Li and his wife turned around to greet other dignitaries with a smile, she raised her hand in embarrassment and scratched her forehead unnaturally, and looked at the smile in her eyes Gu Nanxi with a special meaning: "Well, our editor-in-chief is still waiting for me, I will go find him."
As she said that, she hurriedly pushed his hand away and escaped from his arms. Seeing the ambiguous smile in his eyes, as if she already had one in her stomach, she blushed immediately Turn around and quickly disappear before his eyes.
************************************************** *******************************
It was already late at home, Ji Xinyao was running back and forth in the hall with a dv player in the evening, that bastard of editor-in-chief Zhang brought his new girlfriend to chat with several dignitaries all night drink wine!As soon as she got home, she threw herself on the bed, didn't even want to take a bath, and just wanted to sleep.
It rained heavily at night, Gu Nanxi just sent her home when she suddenly received a call.He asked her to rest first, saying that something happened in the banquet hall, and he went back to deal with it. She didn't ask what it was, but nodded and entered the house.
He was obviously very tired and wanted to sleep, but he tossed and turned on the bed for nearly an hour but couldn't fall asleep. Hearing the gurgling rain outside, after thinking about it, he got up and warmed himself a cup of milk, drinking milk would help him sleep.
While the milk was heating up, there was a sound from the door. She poked her head out from the kitchen, and it was Gu Nanxi who came back, but he was drenched all over.
She was very surprised, obviously he was driving, and there was a way to avoid the rain between the parking lot in Nippori and the door of the apartment, how could it be rained like this?
But after all, it is already winter. Although it rarely snows in G City, the rain is enough to make people catch a cold. She turned around and went directly to the bathroom, adjusted the hot water for him, and handed him the freshly warmed milk Give it to him, and persuade him to drink it first, even if he never drank it before, he also drank it last time at Gu's house.
This time she trotted and handed the milk cup over, he only took a look at her, and then drank it without saying a word, and then he stole a kiss on her face, his naked face was a little bit stuck on her face. It was cold, but the smell of rain was good. She smiled and pushed him away to let him take a bath so as not to catch a cold, and then went to help him find dry clothes.
When he came back, she didn't ask anything, and he didn't say anything. It seemed that the two of them were intimate, but in reality there seemed to be a gap that couldn't be ignored.
Taking out dry clothes, she put the clothes on the door of the bathroom, knocked on the door, signaled to him that the clothes were outside, then turned around to leave, but before turning around, the bathroom door was suddenly slammed openly by him. open.
Although it was not the first time she saw such a high-definition scene without codes, she still blushed. At any rate, he stood in front of her in such an upright manner, which really shocked her, and she turned red immediately, Unexpectedly, he suddenly stretched out his hand and took her in: "Come, let's wash together."
……
Afterwards, she lay lazily on the bed, with his arms across her waist, and he gently embraced her. Just when she was about to fall asleep, she vaguely heard him say in her ears: "I have nothing to do with Shan Ying, everything is fine." In the past, I have never done anything against my will to you."
She opened her eyes and watched his faint thin lips slightly pursed, as if he was seriously stating a fact to her.
He obviously saw the doubts and worries she refused to express in her silence, and he didn't want her to worry too much, which meant that he also cared about her feelings.
Ji Shenyao smiled faintly in an instant, stretched out her hands to embrace him, and pressed her face against his neck like an octopus that couldn't be shaken off, breathing in the same shower gel on him as hers Taste: "Gu Nanxi, I believe in you."
Even if he didn't tell what kind of past he was in Shanying, as long as he said such a word, the haze in her heart would instantly dissipate.
She is not a weak woman who can only shrink back. She understands that as long as Gu Nanxi gives her affirmation, she can always have confidence. No matter whether the opponent is Wen Qing or Shan Ying, she will never give up, and she is not willing to give up. .
"Sometimes, feelings don't have to be fully given by the other party, and you have to learn to fight for it." His faint voice rang above her head, making her slightly taken aback.
After only being dazed for a moment, she raised her head in his arms, catching his eyes in the darkness of the bedroom.
He let her fight?
Is it because he knows that Shan Ying's purpose of returning to China is on him?Or, even he can't determine the purpose of Shanying?Or...how could she not understand the meaning of what he said...
************************************************** *******************************
When going to work the next day, it was natural for Gu Nanxi to drive her off. She found that she gradually became a little woman who needed love. His kisses, his hugs, his smiles, even though he was just driving quietly, she couldn't help but look at him.
When the car stopped in front of the company, when she unbuttoned her seat belt, his hand suddenly reached out and dragged her over. She was unprepared, and the whole body directly slammed into his arms, and when she raised her head, she was caught by him. With a fierce kiss, she didn't struggle, and it was rare to obediently stick to his arms, and kissed back actively.
Until she finally retreated out of breath, he looked at her and teased: "If you want to see me in the future, just look at me openly, don't always turn your face away secretly."
"I'm not a nymphomaniac, why should I watch it every day..." she muttered.
He smiled, glanced at the time, and signaled that she would be late if she didn't get out of the car, so she got out of the car in a hurry and rushed into the company.
At noon, Su Xiaonuan suddenly had a lot of phone calls in the past two days, and she didn't know where she went to eat at noon. Although she had a good relationship with other colleagues in the company, she didn't make an appointment to eat together, so she was alone. I was having a working lunch in the company's staff canteen. Suddenly, I heard a few colleagues who were not from the same department whispering there.
"I heard that Elder Shan is going to stay in China for a while. It seems that her granddaughter Shan Ying got divorced some time ago. Elder Shan plans to choose a grandson-in-law in China..."
"Huh? Old Shan's granddaughter was married before? I can't tell, but she doesn't seem very old by her attire."
"It's a beautiful person with a baby face. No matter how you look at it, it looks young. I heard that the granddaughter of Mr. Shan seems to be 27 years old. She is a top student in the Finance Department of Harvard University in the United States. She won many awards when she was a student. , very brainy, and very smart, oh yes... I heard that Shan Ying and our Mayor Gu seemed to have had a lingering relationship, but it ended without any reason five years ago. Mayor Gu returned to China to participate in politics After that, Shan Ying married a man with a pretty good family background, but I heard that the man seemed to be a member of the underworld, and his family background was unclear. When Shan Ying married, it caused quite a stir at home and abroad. !"
Words are everything at this moment. "Then she's suddenly divorced and reappeared in our g city, so it's not possible that... she wants to rekindle her old relationship with our mayor, Gu?"
"Shh, keep your voice down. Editor Ji is sitting over there, so don't let her hear her. She's our Mayor Gu's honest wife. She probably doesn't know about the Shan Ying thing!"
"Hey, tell me, which one is more beautiful, Shan Ying or our editor-in-chief Ji? If you were Mayor Gu, would you choose your current wife or the ex-girlfriend you loved so much?"
"Who knows, I think that Shan Ying is very beautiful with a baby face, which always gives people a feeling of vitality. Our editor-in-chief Ji is also good, but I heard that Mayor Gu and Shan Ying However, in the myths on the Harvard campus in those years, the pair of golden boys and jade girls were said to be miraculous. Later, Mayor Gu founded the Gu Corporation, and that Shan Ying also became famous in the global financial circle. The two of them had their own achievements. They don't rely on anyone, but they are inseparable. It seems that when their relationship is at its best, suddenly overnight, inexplicably, Mayor Gu returns to China, and even abandons business to pursue politics. What's the news about her, but I heard that she seems to have a daughter who will be five years old..."
"Daughter who is about to turn five years old? Could it be that she was born with Mayor Gu?"
"Based on this time, it's not impossible!"
"If it's really Mayor Gu's daughter, the editor-in-chief of that season would be too sad. Could it be that she is going to be a stepmother..."
"That's not necessarily the case. None of us have ever met anyone from Editor-in-Chief Ji's family, but she doesn't look like someone with a family background, but that Shan Ying is the granddaughter of Shan Heping, the former chairman of the Central Military Commission. If the child It really belongs to Mayor Gu, if that Shan Ying suddenly returns to China and wants to rebuild the old one, I think Editor-in-Chief Ji will definitely be out of the game!"
"Oh, this is really a beautiful Qiong Yao play..."
"Hey, whoever said that marrying into a wealthy family must be a good thing, I see that there are a lot of things, I saw the news captured by other media this morning, do you know, I saw a photo, it is Last night at the reception banquet, Editor Ji was not far from the Gu family, but Mr. Gu and General Gu acted as if they didn't see her at all, tsk tsk."
"Isn't it? I think Mayor Gu seems to be very kind to Editor Ji. I saw Mayor Gu's Land Rover parked outside our company this morning, and he gave Editor Ji a very sweet kiss. Envious and jealous to death!"
"Maybe it's because I saw my beloved ex-girlfriend came back, and I was afraid that my wife would be overwhelmed, so I deliberately coaxed my wife more, and then I went to meet my ex-girlfriend in a fair manner~"
Ji Xinyao didn't know what to eat for this working lunch, and when she finally finished eating, she got up and was about to leave the staff canteen, but she passed by the tables of those colleagues, she thought for a while, stopped, and turned her head Glanced at them.
The few people who suddenly fell silent and lowered their heads to eat because they saw her passing by here noticed her gaze, raised their eyes to look at her, and smiled at her: "Hello, editor-in-chief..."
Ji Xinyao showed a friendly smile to them: "Recently, all the reporting departments of the company are very busy. You interns spend the time of gossiping during lunch on work, and you will definitely get good results during the internship. After the internship At the end of the term, maybe he will stay in the company as a regular employee."
Everyone knows that although this is only a company invested by Qin's, Qin's Fengyu Media is one of the first and second media companies in the country. There are many college students who have been arranged by some famous schools to do internships, but internships are just internships. The most practical goal of these interns is to keep the company for expropriation.
As soon as she said this, those people immediately lowered their heads and said yes again and again.
In fact, Ji Shenyao is not blaming them, gossip is a woman's nature, if there is no gossip, no one likes the news, and those who eat the media would have starved to death.
But she was very angry now, although what she said was not serious, it was enough for the few of them not to dare to discuss these things behind others' backs, especially her matters.Having achieved her goal, she didn't stay any longer, and smiled politely at them: "Let's have a good meal." After saying that, she turned and left.
"God, why did Editor Ji's smile look like he was gnashing his teeth just now? Could it be that he really heard what we just said..."
Behind him, there was a deliberately lowered voice faintly, but in Ji Xinyao's caring ears, he could hear it clearly.
Although she now has a bit of steadfastness and confidence in her heart, it is impossible to be completely unaffected after all.In fact, she doesn't know what she can do now. Gu Nanxi said that she has to learn to fight for herself, but now Shan Ying is full of purpose, but she is not sharp, and she hasn't made a move yet, or, even if she makes a move, She can't see it now, what can she do?She had no choice but to wait quietly and observe the development of the situation.
She also had no choice but to calm herself down and continue to live with her heart.
When she got off work, Ji Xinyao received a call from an unfamiliar number. When she picked up the phone and heard the voice from there, her expression changed slightly.
Half an hour later, an elegant and secluded tea restaurant on Beidou Avenue in G City——
She didn't know why He Manni chose such a place to ask her to meet, but based on her understanding of He Manni, she knew that she had always disdained her, so she would suddenly come to G City alone and ask her to meet again, although it would not be possible Do something to her, but I'm afraid it's not a good thing.
When I arrived at the tea restaurant, I saw He Manni sitting in the Meiziya room on the second floor.
She is really a woman who knows how to enjoy herself.
Ji Xinyao sneered indistinctly, walked in under the guidance of the waiter, entered the door of the Meizi Yajian, and met He Manni's eyes.
After more than seven years, the last time we met was in Y City. Her daughter Ji Chengcheng, who was cultivated by He Manni, yelled at her in public, but at this moment, He Manni was sitting here, saying yes To have a meal together.
The reason why she didn't refuse was because Ji Xinyao really wanted to know what this woman who treated her so ruthlessly back then wanted to do.
"Sit down." Seeing Ji Shenyao entered the door, He Manni didn't have much expression, she glanced at her lightly, and motioned her to sit down.
There was already a pot of jasmine tea on the table. It was a very simple and light thing, but it was suitable for a very elegant woman like He Manni who often dressed up. The waiter withdrew from the door of Meizi Yajian under the signal of He Manni's eyes.
Ji Xinyao sat down, put down her bag, and then slowly raised her eyes to look at He Manni.
He Manni smiled faintly, but the smile didn't reach her eyes. She looked at her quietly, looked at Ji Xinyao's calm demeanor, nodded and said: "Sure enough, I have grown up."
Her tone was not like that of an elder who loves children, but a sigh.
"Auntie Manni is already in her mid-mature years, and of course I won't be a child anymore." Ji Xinyao showed no expression, her voice lacked any sharpness, but there was no warmth either. She reached out and poured herself a cup of jasmine tea. Peck and drink calmly.
"Yeah, your dad and I are already old." He Manni bent her lips, but her eyes were always locked on her.
Ji Shenyao took a sip of tea, held the teacup, and played with it in circles in her hands, met He Manni's gaze, and smiled softly: "Auntie Manni came all the way from city y to city g, and You specially asked me to come out to meet, wouldn't it be as simple as just asking me to drink tea?"
"What? Are you afraid that I will poison this tea?" He Manni glanced at her, her eyes were not kind, but she was not as cold as she was when she was a child.
It can be seen that He Manni seems to have been observing herself, and Ji Xinyao put down the teacup without any trace, poured another cup of tea for herself, raised it to her lips and blew, and said, "Auntie Manni is here Just kidding, if you want to poison, you don't need to wait seven years later, during my 14 years at Ji's family, you have a lot of time and opportunities."
"Ji Xinyao, since you don't want to hide it, I won't tell you a lie." He Manni suddenly looked at her seriously: "You have grown up too, let's have a good chat. You and that child Xiu Li have always been thorns in my eyes, and you, a girl who has been stubborn since she was a child, looks quiet but actually has deeper thoughts than your dead mother."
Ji Xinyao didn't refute.
When she was a child, she didn't even know how to protect herself, how could she have any scheming, at most she just learned to be patient since she was a child.But since she was willing to say that, she didn't bother to fight for the momentary mood, she just smiled, drank her tea quietly, and didn't say anything.
"I really don't welcome you and Xiu Li. During the first two years when you were taken in at Ji's house, I quarreled with your father all day, threw things, and forced him to send you away, but your father, You must also understand his temperament. In this family, he doesn't have too much opinion. No matter how I treat you, he knows. He knows that I am just venting my anger. He once said after seeing me beating you, I'm angry, don't attack too hard, you're just a child after all."
He Manni's voice was calm, and every word and every word seemed to reveal the message of wanting to get back together.
Ji Xinyao looked at her calmly, waiting for her to continue.
"So for so many years, I may have hit you too many times in front of Cheng Cheng, and she has also learned to deal with you in a shallow way. Although Cheng Cheng is now the jewel in the palm of Ji's family, he is still somewhat doted on by me after all. Domineering, maybe this is also a punishment for me as a mother who dotes on my children too much. And you, Ji Xinyao, I hate you and your mother to the bone. In those years, sometimes, I could fall asleep I suddenly woke up and wanted to rush down and try my best to make you completely disappear in this world and before my eyes. But I never did this. I hate, I resent, but I also understand in my heart that you are just a child, You and Xiu Li are both innocent, not to mention you both have Qiuhang's blood on your body, no matter what I do, I can't really be as vicious as the witch in the fairy tales you read when you were young."
Her description made Ji Xinyao laugh.
It turned out that she knew that when she was very young, every time she listened to those fairy tales, she would compare her to those bad stepmothers, witches, and all the villains in her mind.
It seems that He Manni still has a little advantage, at least she has self-knowledge, knows what she is doing, and can even find a good reason for herself in such a high-sounding manner.
Ji Shenyao put down her teacup, and looked quietly at the glimmer of memory in He Manni's eyes: "Do you hate me, my mother, or are you afraid of me, or my mother?"
He Manni looked at her with a slightly dazed expression, as if she understood what she meant, but felt that it was impossible.
"Every time you see Xiu Li and me, you will remember what kind of means you used to snatch other people's husbands, right?" Ji Xinyao chuckled, her tone seemed to be explaining a common meal, but she was instantly overwhelmed. He Manni's eyes were slightly stiff.
Ji Xinyao said with a smile: "You must really want to ask, how do I know? Even if my mother died 20 years ago, it doesn't mean that she had no friends before she was alive. She also has relatives and friends. Even if you put The purpose of me bringing me back to Ji's house was actually just to hide people's eyes and ears, so that those people can't get in touch with me, but no matter what you do, there are times when you miscalculate. When I was 16 years old, we held a summer camp camp at our school. I managed to break away from you For a whole week, and in that week, I met some people and learned a lot.”
He Manni remained silent, as if she had discovered in an instant that this little girl who had grown up little by little in front of her eyes for 14 years could hide everything so deeply.

She didn't know how to open her mouth to remind Wen Qing, and in fact she didn't want to.
There are no fairy tales in the adult world, everyone has to pay the price for what they have done.
"Ji Xinyao, Nancy listened to her grandfather so much that she could even give up his most beloved Shanying back then, and returned from Boston to abandon business and politics. But now, who do you think you are? Nancy is nothing more than a responsibility to you , if you hadn't designed such a bed scene to use public opinion to force marriage, I'm afraid you would never get to know someone like Nancy in your life!"
"Also, I want to tell you that as long as there is grandpa around for a day, you will never be recognized in the Gu family! Before you get out of the Gu family, you will never have a good life!" Wen Qing looked at her with a faint smile, He stretched out his hand suddenly, snatched the bottle of champagne from her hand, turned around with a sneer, and was about to leave.
But as soon as he turned around, he took a step back abruptly and looked at Gu Nanxi who had calm eyes in surprise.
"Nan...Nanxi..." She looked at him in panic and frowned slightly, and quickly explained: "I was joking with Xinyao just now, don't get me wrong..."
As she said that, she suddenly turned around and pointed at Ji Xinyao: "It's her, she deliberately said something to annoy me, I, I said such ugly things, I was just joking with her!"
Gu Nanxi remained silent, quietly watching her directing and acting in a one-man show there.
"Nancy, you have to trust me..." She reached out and grabbed his arm, holding his arms tightly and shaking them gently like a baby.
"Wen Qing." Gu Nanxi's tightly pursed lips moved slightly: "Now let me tell you that I came back from Boston not because of my grandfather. And although my marriage started with responsibility, it will end with love. As for you It is absolutely not going to happen that Ji Xinyao will get out of the Gu family."
Wen Qing's hand on his arm froze, her red lips trembled slightly, and she looked at the faint coldness in his eyes and his disappointment in her in disbelief.
She suddenly bit her lip hard, and slowly put down her hand, her eyes were full of grievances, tears pooled in her eyes, her voice was choked and trembling: "Grandpa will not tolerate her...you are going against grandpa...he is already old At this age, how can you go against his mind and fight against him like this, in case grandpa..."
"If you don't want grandpa to be angry, you know what to do." His eyes fell on her, but there was no warmth, as if he had always known that Wen Qing was wayward and ignorant, but he never thought of her under that docile appearance It's such a thought.
And the meaning of his words is obvious, as long as Wen Qing doesn't continue to provoke in the middle, grandpa will accept Ji Xinyao sooner or later.
Wen Qing's lips were turned white by her biting, her eyes were full of tears, she just looked at him like this without blinking: "Nancy, we have known each other for 23 years, since I was left in the Gu family when I was still a baby , you have loved me so much for the whole 23 years, even in those years when you were studying in the United States, you would often send me things that I liked, I thought I was always important in your heart, but now, I even Is Ji Xinyao inferior?"
"I have always treated you and Yufei equally." He said slowly.
Wen Qing's face turned pale for a moment, she turned her eyes suddenly, and her resentful eyes fell on Ji Xinyao.
It seems that all the sadness and loss, all the mistakes, and all the things that have been imposed on her Wen Qing now are the result of Ji Xinyao's appearance.
Ji Xinyao met Shang Wen Qing's eyes full of resentment, without ridicule, sarcasm, or sympathy.
The slap she received for no reason at the beginning should be paid back, right?But Gu Nanxi's words hit her more seriously than the actual slap in the face.
Because Gu Nanxi's opinion is what Wen Qing cares about most, and Gu Nanxi's heart is what Wen Qing wants most, and Gu Nanxi's indifference at this time is the ultimate punishment for her .
"You don't have to be proud." Suddenly, Wen Qing showed her a bleak smile as if a jar had been broken, but her gaze was mixed with resentment: "Gu Nanxi will never fall in love with you, what do you say starts with marriage, Finally in love? Ji Xinyao, I’m waiting for the day when you fail miserably! Even if you are honest, you still don’t have much weight in his heart after all! The woman who is really on the tip of Nancy’s heart is standing there, and you, Not worth mentioning at all."
Wen Qing pointed her finger in the direction of Shanlao and Shanying, her eyes were filled with resolute hatred, when Ji Xinyao never looked away, just kept looking at her, she suddenly smiled coldly, and turned to look at Gu who was frowning tightly. Nancy: "With Shan Ying here, I want to see how you and Ji Xinyao finally fell in love! From the Gu family to everyone who knows you well, is there anyone who doesn't know what Shan Ying represents to you?" what is..."
"Enough!" Gu Nanxi drank suddenly, with frost in her brows.
"Do you think marriage is just a game?" He looked at Wen Qing's reddish eyes seriously like a majestic elder brother, and his words could no longer indulge her sharpness like a blade: "My marriage does not need your words like this A solid evaluation, you need to reorganize your own life, if it continues to be so messy, maybe the first person who can't tolerate you is the grandfather who loves you the most!"
"I'm just curious..." Wen Qing seemed to have already achieved this step, and she no longer wanted to maintain her obedient, considerate and well-mannered image, and said with a sneer, "What is the reason for you who love you so much? , then resolutely leave Boston, and never even set foot in Boston for five years?"
Wen Qing's eyes were full of resentment, unwillingness, and deep hatred, and she continued without stopping: "I also heard that back then..."
Gu Nanxi turned around slowly, staring at her with faint and cold eyes, although she didn't speak, her eyes were enough to shock her and her heart trembled.
However, Ji Xinyao listened to all this in her heart and saw it in her eyes. She always felt that what she wanted to know the most would often be deliberately hidden or interrupted. She wanted to try her best not to remember these things, but all of them were As if it was completely irrelevant to her, as if she was always just an outsider, those past events that everyone knew, she didn't know, those that belonged to Gu Nanxi, the past that she had no time to participate in for the rest of her life, at this moment To her, it was like a huge barrier, solidifying all her emotions, and even her breathing began to become somewhat dignified.
But what is she dissatisfied with?
Gu Nanxi's tenderness to her, protection of her, thoughtfulness and care for her can't be faked. Maybe everyone is like this. They were all burned by the love they once had, leaving only their bones. How many years of his deep love and devotion in the United States, or her lingering love for An Yueze in the past four years, but in exchange for a tragic failure in the end, no matter who has loved so deeply, then You will find that you are no longer able to love.
Even if they still love, they have become cautious, and they can no longer be as desperate as moths to a flame.
And Gu Nanxi is very good to her, what else can she not be satisfied with?
She tried hard to open the corners of her lips to smile, as if she didn't feel anything about what Wenqing said in front of her deliberately, she should be satisfied, why bother to ask for so much?She doesn't want a famous family, no glory and wealth, she just wants a stable life, that's all, even if Gu Nanxi can't give her love, she is enough.
She, Ji Shenyao, will never be hit by any outside people or things. She has been tempered since she was a child, and she may be temporarily excited and at a loss when facing happy things, but when faced with such things as slander and Wen Qing When deliberately stimulated by words, he can calmly smile.
Wen Qing didn't say any more, she stared at Gu Nanxi for a while, then turned and left with red eyes.
"Don't take Wen Qing's words to heart, she is spoiled just like Cheng Cheng." Seeing Ji Xinyao standing there calmly, Gu Nanxi said in a warm voice, walked over slowly, and hung her on the left A strand of hair on the side of her cheek was tucked behind her ear, and there was incomparably natural concern in her eyes.
"I didn't take it to heart. I know she is the same as Ji Chengcheng, otherwise, how could they be good sisters?" She smiled and said, "My heart has always been magnanimous. That time at Gu's house, I would directly make her feel restless."
There was a helpless smile in Gu Nanxi's eyes, she half-circled her body, and rubbed her head with her hands naturally, with unconcealable love and tenderness in her eyes.
The mood that I had tried to comfort myself was still gloomy, but because of his natural actions as if pampering me, I felt a little more comfortable. Several dignitaries who knew them walked by, and their eyes were full of ambiguous smiles , she couldn't help blushing for a while, and reached out to push him away, but in the end she was firmly hugged by him.
The intimacy between the two of them made the passing dignitaries and his wife smile and say, "Mayor Gu and his wife are really in love. When will the wedding be held? Let's prepare red envelopes!"
Gu Nanxi smiled lightly, not only did not let go of her hands on Ji Xinyaoran, but instead pressed her into her arms, she said with a smile: "Recently, we have started preparing for the wedding, and we will notify you when the date is fixed, Director Li You must bring your wife to enjoy the honor and participate."
"Okay, okay, you must notify us when you get married! The mayor and his wife are so loving, but you must do it as soon as possible, otherwise you may have children someday, and it will be painful for the bride to wear a wedding dress~" Director Li All smiles.
"Look at what you said, the mayor and his wife are just newly married. Young people nowadays don't want to have children so soon. The mayor's wife, the bride, must be well-dressed~" Director Li's wife pinched her next to her. husband.
"That's not necessarily true. When you were wearing your wedding dress, didn't you have our son in your belly? It's because you are young that you are easy to conceive." Director Li joked. 13acv.
Director Li's wife was in her forties, she felt a little embarrassed at once, and gave her husband a sideways glance, which resulted in a hearty smile from Director Li.
Hearing what they said, Ji Xinyao also blushed slightly, until Director Li and his wife turned around to greet other dignitaries with a smile, she raised her hand in embarrassment and scratched her forehead unnaturally, and looked at the smile in her eyes Gu Nanxi with a special meaning: "Well, our editor-in-chief is still waiting for me, I will go find him."
As she said that, she hurriedly pushed his hand away and escaped from his arms. Seeing the ambiguous smile in his eyes, as if she already had one in her stomach, she blushed immediately Turn around and quickly disappear before his eyes.
************************************************** *******************************
It was already late at home, Ji Xinyao was running back and forth in the hall with a dv player in the evening, that bastard of editor-in-chief Zhang brought his new girlfriend to chat with several dignitaries all night drink wine!As soon as she got home, she threw herself on the bed, didn't even want to take a bath, and just wanted to sleep.
It rained heavily at night, Gu Nanxi just sent her home when she suddenly received a call.He asked her to rest first, saying that something happened in the banquet hall, and he went back to deal with it. She didn't ask what it was, but nodded and entered the house.
He was obviously very tired and wanted to sleep, but he tossed and turned on the bed for nearly an hour but couldn't fall asleep. Hearing the gurgling rain outside, after thinking about it, he got up and warmed himself a cup of milk, drinking milk would help him sleep.
While the milk was heating up, there was a sound from the door. She poked her head out from the kitchen, and it was Gu Nanxi who came back, but he was drenched all over.
She was very surprised, obviously he was driving, and there was a way to avoid the rain between the parking lot in Nippori and the door of the apartment, how could it be rained like this?
But after all, it is already winter. Although it rarely snows in G City, the rain is enough to make people catch a cold. She turned around and went directly to the bathroom, adjusted the hot water for him, and handed him the freshly warmed milk Give it to him, and persuade him to drink it first, even if he never drank it before, he also drank it last time at Gu's house.
This time she trotted and handed the milk cup over, he only took a look at her, and then drank it without saying a word, and then he stole a kiss on her face, his naked face was a little bit stuck on her face. It was cold, but the smell of rain was good. She smiled and pushed him away to let him take a bath so as not to catch a cold, and then went to help him find dry clothes.
When he came back, she didn't ask anything, and he didn't say anything. It seemed that the two of them were intimate, but in reality there seemed to be a gap that couldn't be ignored.
Taking out dry clothes, she put the clothes on the door of the bathroom, knocked on the door, signaled to him that the clothes were outside, then turned around to leave, but before turning around, the bathroom door was suddenly slammed openly by him. open.
Although it was not the first time she saw such a high-definition scene without codes, she still blushed. At any rate, he stood in front of her in such an upright manner, which really shocked her, and she turned red immediately, Unexpectedly, he suddenly stretched out his hand and took her in: "Come, let's wash together."
……
Afterwards, she lay lazily on the bed, with his arms across her waist, and he gently embraced her. Just when she was about to fall asleep, she vaguely heard him say in her ears: "I have nothing to do with Shan Ying, everything is fine." In the past, I have never done anything against my will to you."
She opened her eyes and watched his faint thin lips slightly pursed, as if he was seriously stating a fact to her.
He obviously saw the doubts and worries she refused to express in her silence, and he didn't want her to worry too much, which meant that he also cared about her feelings.
Ji Shenyao smiled faintly in an instant, stretched out her hands to embrace him, and pressed her face against his neck like an octopus that couldn't be shaken off, breathing in the same shower gel on him as hers Taste: "Gu Nanxi, I believe in you."
Even if he didn't tell what kind of past he was in Shanying, as long as he said such a word, the haze in her heart would instantly dissipate.
She is not a weak woman who can only shrink back. She understands that as long as Gu Nanxi gives her affirmation, she can always have confidence. No matter whether the opponent is Wen Qing or Shan Ying, she will never give up, and she is not willing to give up. .
"Sometimes, feelings don't have to be fully given by the other party, and you have to learn to fight for it." His faint voice rang above her head, making her slightly taken aback.
After only being dazed for a moment, she raised her head in his arms, catching his eyes in the darkness of the bedroom.
He let her fight?
Is it because he knows that Shan Ying's purpose of returning to China is on him?Or, even he can't determine the purpose of Shanying?Or...how could she not understand the meaning of what he said...
************************************************** *******************************
When going to work the next day, it was natural for Gu Nanxi to drive her off. She found that she gradually became a little woman who needed love. His kisses, his hugs, his smiles, even though he was just driving quietly, she couldn't help but look at him.
When the car stopped in front of the company, when she unbuttoned her seat belt, his hand suddenly reached out and dragged her over. She was unprepared, and the whole body directly slammed into his arms, and when she raised her head, she was caught by him. With a fierce kiss, she didn't struggle, and it was rare to obediently stick to his arms, and kissed back actively.
Until she finally retreated out of breath, he looked at her and teased: "If you want to see me in the future, just look at me openly, don't always turn your face away secretly."
"I'm not a nymphomaniac, why should I watch it every day..." she muttered.
He smiled, glanced at the time, and signaled that she would be late if she didn't get out of the car, so she got out of the car in a hurry and rushed into the company.
At noon, Su Xiaonuan suddenly had a lot of phone calls in the past two days, and she didn't know where she went to eat at noon. Although she had a good relationship with other colleagues in the company, she didn't make an appointment to eat together, so she was alone. I was having a working lunch in the company's staff canteen. Suddenly, I heard a few colleagues who were not from the same department whispering there.
"I heard that Elder Shan is going to stay in China for a while. It seems that her granddaughter Shan Ying got divorced some time ago. Elder Shan plans to choose a grandson-in-law in China..."
"Huh? Old Shan's granddaughter was married before? I can't tell, but she doesn't seem very old by her attire."
"It's a beautiful person with a baby face. No matter how you look at it, it looks young. I heard that the granddaughter of Mr. Shan seems to be 27 years old. She is a top student in the Finance Department of Harvard University in the United States. She won many awards when she was a student. , very brainy, and very smart, oh yes... I heard that Shan Ying and our Mayor Gu seemed to have had a lingering relationship, but it ended without any reason five years ago. Mayor Gu returned to China to participate in politics After that, Shan Ying married a man with a pretty good family background, but I heard that the man seemed to be a member of the underworld, and his family background was unclear. When Shan Ying married, it caused quite a stir at home and abroad. !"
Words are everything at this moment. "Then she's suddenly divorced and reappeared in our g city, so it's not possible that... she wants to rekindle her old relationship with our mayor, Gu?"
"Shh, keep your voice down. Editor Ji is sitting over there, so don't let her hear her. She's our Mayor Gu's honest wife. She probably doesn't know about the Shan Ying thing!"
"Hey, tell me, which one is more beautiful, Shan Ying or our editor-in-chief Ji? If you were Mayor Gu, would you choose your current wife or the ex-girlfriend you loved so much?"
"Who knows, I think that Shan Ying is very beautiful with a baby face, which always gives people a feeling of vitality. Our editor-in-chief Ji is also good, but I heard that Mayor Gu and Shan Ying However, in the myths on the Harvard campus in those years, the pair of golden boys and jade girls were said to be miraculous. Later, Mayor Gu founded the Gu Corporation, and that Shan Ying also became famous in the global financial circle. The two of them had their own achievements. They don't rely on anyone, but they are inseparable. It seems that when their relationship is at its best, suddenly overnight, inexplicably, Mayor Gu returns to China, and even abandons business to pursue politics. What's the news about her, but I heard that she seems to have a daughter who will be five years old..."
"Daughter who is about to turn five years old? Could it be that she was born with Mayor Gu?"
"Based on this time, it's not impossible!"
"If it's really Mayor Gu's daughter, the editor-in-chief of that season would be too sad. Could it be that she is going to be a stepmother..."
"That's not necessarily the case. None of us have ever met anyone from Editor-in-Chief Ji's family, but she doesn't look like someone with a family background, but that Shan Ying is the granddaughter of Shan Heping, the former chairman of the Central Military Commission. If the child It really belongs to Mayor Gu, if that Shan Ying suddenly returns to China and wants to rebuild the old one, I think Editor-in-Chief Ji will definitely be out of the game!"
"Oh, this is really a beautiful Qiong Yao play..."
"Hey, whoever said that marrying into a wealthy family must be a good thing, I see that there are a lot of things, I saw the news captured by other media this morning, do you know, I saw a photo, it is Last night at the reception banquet, Editor Ji was not far from the Gu family, but Mr. Gu and General Gu acted as if they didn't see her at all, tsk tsk."
"Isn't it? I think Mayor Gu seems to be very kind to Editor Ji. I saw Mayor Gu's Land Rover parked outside our company this morning, and he gave Editor Ji a very sweet kiss. Envious and jealous to death!"
"Maybe it's because I saw my beloved ex-girlfriend came back, and I was afraid that my wife would be overwhelmed, so I deliberately coaxed my wife more, and then I went to meet my ex-girlfriend in a fair manner~"
Ji Xinyao didn't know what to eat for this working lunch, and when she finally finished eating, she got up and was about to leave the staff canteen, but she passed by the tables of those colleagues, she thought for a while, stopped, and turned her head Glanced at them.
The few people who suddenly fell silent and lowered their heads to eat because they saw her passing by here noticed her gaze, raised their eyes to look at her, and smiled at her: "Hello, editor-in-chief..."
Ji Xinyao showed a friendly smile to them: "Recently, all the reporting departments of the company are very busy. You interns spend the time of gossiping during lunch on work, and you will definitely get good results during the internship. After the internship At the end of the term, maybe he will stay in the company as a regular employee."
Everyone knows that although this is only a company invested by Qin's, Qin's Fengyu Media is one of the first and second media companies in the country. There are many college students who have been arranged by some famous schools to do internships, but internships are just internships. The most practical goal of these interns is to keep the company for expropriation.
As soon as she said this, those people immediately lowered their heads and said yes again and again.
In fact, Ji Shenyao is not blaming them, gossip is a woman's nature, if there is no gossip, no one likes the news, and those who eat the media would have starved to death.
But she was very angry now, although what she said was not serious, it was enough for the few of them not to dare to discuss these things behind others' backs, especially her matters.Having achieved her goal, she didn't stay any longer, and smiled politely at them: "Let's have a good meal." After saying that, she turned and left.
"God, why did Editor Ji's smile look like he was gnashing his teeth just now? Could it be that he really heard what we just said..."
Behind him, there was a deliberately lowered voice faintly, but in Ji Xinyao's caring ears, he could hear it clearly.
Although she now has a bit of steadfastness and confidence in her heart, it is impossible to be completely unaffected after all.In fact, she doesn't know what she can do now. Gu Nanxi said that she has to learn to fight for herself, but now Shan Ying is full of purpose, but she is not sharp, and she hasn't made a move yet, or, even if she makes a move, She can't see it now, what can she do?She had no choice but to wait quietly and observe the development of the situation.
She also had no choice but to calm herself down and continue to live with her heart.
When she got off work, Ji Xinyao received a call from an unfamiliar number. When she picked up the phone and heard the voice from there, her expression changed slightly.
Half an hour later, an elegant and secluded tea restaurant on Beidou Avenue in G City——
She didn't know why He Manni chose such a place to ask her to meet, but based on her understanding of He Manni, she knew that she had always disdained her, so she would suddenly come to G City alone and ask her to meet again, although it would not be possible Do something to her, but I'm afraid it's not a good thing.
When I arrived at the tea restaurant, I saw He Manni sitting in the Meiziya room on the second floor.
She is really a woman who knows how to enjoy herself.
Ji Xinyao sneered indistinctly, walked in under the guidance of the waiter, entered the door of the Meizi Yajian, and met He Manni's eyes.
After more than seven years, the last time we met was in Y City. Her daughter Ji Chengcheng, who was cultivated by He Manni, yelled at her in public, but at this moment, He Manni was sitting here, saying yes To have a meal together.
The reason why she didn't refuse was because Ji Xinyao really wanted to know what this woman who treated her so ruthlessly back then wanted to do.
"Sit down." Seeing Ji Shenyao entered the door, He Manni didn't have much expression, she glanced at her lightly, and motioned her to sit down.
There was already a pot of jasmine tea on the table. It was a very simple and light thing, but it was suitable for a very elegant woman like He Manni who often dressed up. The waiter withdrew from the door of Meizi Yajian under the signal of He Manni's eyes.
Ji Xinyao sat down, put down her bag, and then slowly raised her eyes to look at He Manni.
He Manni smiled faintly, but the smile didn't reach her eyes. She looked at her quietly, looked at Ji Xinyao's calm demeanor, nodded and said: "Sure enough, I have grown up."
Her tone was not like that of an elder who loves children, but a sigh.
"Auntie Manni is already in her mid-mature years, and of course I won't be a child anymore." Ji Xinyao showed no expression, her voice lacked any sharpness, but there was no warmth either. She reached out and poured herself a cup of jasmine tea. Peck and drink calmly.
"Yeah, your dad and I are already old." He Manni bent her lips, but her eyes were always locked on her.
Ji Shenyao took a sip of tea, held the teacup, and played with it in circles in her hands, met He Manni's gaze, and smiled softly: "Auntie Manni came all the way from city y to city g, and You specially asked me to come out to meet, wouldn't it be as simple as just asking me to drink tea?"
"What? Are you afraid that I will poison this tea?" He Manni glanced at her, her eyes were not kind, but she was not as cold as she was when she was a child.
It can be seen that He Manni seems to have been observing herself, and Ji Xinyao put down the teacup without any trace, poured another cup of tea for herself, raised it to her lips and blew, and said, "Auntie Manni is here Just kidding, if you want to poison, you don't need to wait seven years later, during my 14 years at Ji's family, you have a lot of time and opportunities."
"Ji Xinyao, since you don't want to hide it, I won't tell you a lie." He Manni suddenly looked at her seriously: "You have grown up too, let's have a good chat. You and that child Xiu Li have always been thorns in my eyes, and you, a girl who has been stubborn since she was a child, looks quiet but actually has deeper thoughts than your dead mother."
Ji Xinyao didn't refute.
When she was a child, she didn't even know how to protect herself, how could she have any scheming, at most she just learned to be patient since she was a child.But since she was willing to say that, she didn't bother to fight for the momentary mood, she just smiled, drank her tea quietly, and didn't say anything.
"I really don't welcome you and Xiu Li. During the first two years when you were taken in at Ji's house, I quarreled with your father all day, threw things, and forced him to send you away, but your father, You must also understand his temperament. In this family, he doesn't have too much opinion. No matter how I treat you, he knows. He knows that I am just venting my anger. He once said after seeing me beating you, I'm angry, don't attack too hard, you're just a child after all."
He Manni's voice was calm, and every word and every word seemed to reveal the message of wanting to get back together.
Ji Xinyao looked at her calmly, waiting for her to continue.
"So for so many years, I may have hit you too many times in front of Cheng Cheng, and she has also learned to deal with you in a shallow way. Although Cheng Cheng is now the jewel in the palm of Ji's family, he is still somewhat doted on by me after all. Domineering, maybe this is also a punishment for me as a mother who dotes on my children too much. And you, Ji Xinyao, I hate you and your mother to the bone. In those years, sometimes, I could fall asleep I suddenly woke up and wanted to rush down and try my best to make you completely disappear in this world and before my eyes. But I never did this. I hate, I resent, but I also understand in my heart that you are just a child, You and Xiu Li are both innocent, not to mention you both have Qiuhang's blood on your body, no matter what I do, I can't really be as vicious as the witch in the fairy tales you read when you were young."
Her description made Ji Xinyao laugh.
It turned out that she knew that when she was very young, every time she listened to those fairy tales, she would compare her to those bad stepmothers, witches, and all the villains in her mind.
It seems that He Manni still has a little advantage, at least she has self-knowledge, knows what she is doing, and can even find a good reason for herself in such a high-sounding manner.
Ji Shenyao put down her teacup, and looked quietly at the glimmer of memory in He Manni's eyes: "Do you hate me, my mother, or are you afraid of me, or my mother?"
He Manni looked at her with a slightly dazed expression, as if she understood what she meant, but felt that it was impossible.
"Every time you see Xiu Li and me, you will remember what kind of means you used to snatch other people's husbands, right?" Ji Xinyao chuckled, her tone seemed to be explaining a common meal, but she was instantly overwhelmed. He Manni's eyes were slightly stiff.
Ji Xinyao said with a smile: "You must really want to ask, how do I know? Even if my mother died 20 years ago, it doesn't mean that she had no friends before she was alive. She also has relatives and friends. Even if you put The purpose of me bringing me back to Ji's house was actually just to hide people's eyes and ears, so that those people can't get in touch with me, but no matter what you do, there are times when you miscalculate. When I was 16 years old, we held a summer camp camp at our school. I managed to break away from you For a whole week, and in that week, I met some people and learned a lot.”
He Manni remained silent, as if she had discovered in an instant that this little girl who had grown up little by little in front of her eyes for 14 years could hide everything so deeply.
