Chapter 387 Visual Impact
In the spacious room, a cool breeze blew in through the cracks in the windows, and the heavy dark flannel curtains moved with the wind.

The milky-yellow sunlight slowly climbed up the wall through the gap between the curtains, sensing a hint of warmth, Jian Xi slowly opened her eyes, her hands were naturally placed on her slightly raised abdomen, as if to protect something .

Staring blankly at the ceiling, Jian Xi still doubted whether what was in front of him was true.

There's nothing wrong with it, everything that happened just now was just her dream—about Chi Yichen's departure, the child's second death, and even Mu Shaogong being shot and fell in front of her, all of which she had never heard of. Tone dreamed.

After confirming again and again that it was a dream, she immediately got up and got out of bed, walked to the window, and opened the curtains wide to let the sunlight from outside the window come in. With the cool breeze, Jian Xi couldn't help lowering her eyebrows and smiling slightly, muttering to herself, "So It's almost autumn."

Turning around and about to go to the bathroom to wash up, who knew that the phone on the dressing table rang first. It turned out to be Miao Yiheng. He asked her to sit at the bar, but she didn't refuse. Of course, she also made it clear that she didn't drink.

It was just a small condition, and he immediately agreed.

After hanging up the phone, Jian Xi felt that something was wrong. When did she get so close to Miao Yiheng?Isn't he Chi Yichen's girlfriend?

No matter what, if she can learn about Chi Yichen from Miao Yiheng, she will not lose out on this deal.

Thinking of this, she suddenly became enlightened, humming a little song and headed for the bathroom.

Because she had an appointment, she moved faster than before. She changed into a loose dress and canvas shoes, pulled all her hair back and tied it up, and turned her face to the sky, looking like a high school student.

When she went downstairs, Aunt Mei was taken aback. She covered her mouth and chuckled, and kept praising her, "I thought a high school student from a nearby middle school ran into my family just now."

"What, I'm almost in my third year." The 26-year-old Jian Xi blushed and spoke modestly, obviously enjoying the compliment.

Talking and laughing, the servant had already come from the kitchen and called Jian Xi to eat in the cafeteria, with a friendly and natural attitude, without any restraint.

The same is true for Jian Xi, walking into the cafeteria while talking and laughing, and muttering, "I'm pregnant now, so I want to eat something nutritious, such as hot and sour soup——"

"The young master has explained that he refuses you to eat any hot and sour or unnutritious food." The servant poured cold water unceremoniously.

In desperation, for the sake of her child, she could only grit her silver teeth and endure.

In fact, Jian Xi just came back yesterday, after meeting with Miao Yiheng later, he has to go to Mu Shaogong to fulfill the promise made last night.But the attitude of the servant and the housekeeper, Aunt Mei, was still the same as before, and they kept silent about the substitute Mu Ran.

She didn't mean to show off either, she was very grateful to Mu Ran.Time will treat kind people kindly.

And a person like her who is neither kind nor cute never believes that time is of any use, she only believes in herself.

When she came out of the villa, the weather was just right, the breeze was blowing, her skirt swayed slightly, the driver was waiting outside the door early in the morning, no matter where she was going, he could not have any objections.

There is no doubt that it is still the black-bellied driver.

As soon as Jian Xi got into the car, the driver nodded to the rearview mirror, and then said in a way that was beyond exasperating, "Young Mistress, you are really dressed today... It doesn't match your actual age."

If you seriously praise her, you will die?It would be nice to say that she looks much more lively and younger than usual, but he just wants to use this kind of person, isn't he?

She was so angry that she couldn't lose her temper, after all, she was still sitting in his car.

"Stop sarcasm at me, drive quickly, and take me to Zhongshan Road in the downtown area." After reporting the address to the driver, Jian Xi didn't say anything more, closed his eyes, and stopped looking at the ever-changing world outside.

She has no idea what to do next.

Last night before going to bed, Xue Qi specially called her to ask her not to go back for the time being, because Xue's family is already in a state of turmoil, and many people are waiting for her to go back to have fun, but Xue Yuepeng has been ill recently and cannot come out to receive her.

He was not flustered, because he had already guessed that such a day would come.

Jian Xi also expected it, so she agreed without thinking about it. She has no interest in joining in the fun.

However, this kind of evasion could not last long, and soon she had to face the reality—to take on the affairs of the family and prepare to inherit the family property, not only the money, but also the shares of the companies in which she invested.

Fortunately, the Xue family did not start a company, and has always focused on investment, serving as one of the major shareholders of various companies, including the Chi family enterprise.

This means that one day, she will be able to help Chi Yichen's career.

After thinking for a long time in a daze, she didn't even know that the car had stopped. After the driver yelled several times, she finally came to her senses, grabbed her bag and got out of the car in a hurry.

Asking the driver to come back here in half an hour, Jian Xi turned around and followed his memory, walking towards the remote alley, even in the daytime, he could still see the faint blue light emanating from the crack of the door.

She went in through the back door of the bar, but with her back leaning against the door, she was stopped by the waiter first. After hearing the explanation, she realized that it was Miao Yiheng who ordered them to bring Jian Xi to the bar? ? ?Only those who are eligible to enjoy the box.

The corridor where the box is located is next to the bar, Jianxi walks in, the first room is the destination.

Pushing open the heavy door, Miao Yiheng was already waiting inside, he habitually rested his arms on the back of the sofa, his eyes were all on her, "I'm so glad you are willing to come, I thought Chi Yichen would stop you."

"He doesn't know I'm here yet." She told the truth, after sitting down next to him, she looked around - the spacious box was very quiet, and there was no strange smell, there were sofas and tables everywhere, compared to Looking for fun, this place is very suitable for rest.

But it is also understandable that Chi Yichen would rather sit at the bar than stay here, because the atmosphere is similar to his office, if he wants a good atmosphere, he might as well stay in the office and work obediently.

Seeing that there was nothing interesting, Jian Xi lowered her head resentfully, and picked up the hot milk prepared for her on the table, she turned to look at Miao Yiheng, "Congratulations on winning the laurel crown, look, I told you that you must OK."

"Well, it's all thanks to your encouragement. To be honest, I was also surprised. Later, I heard that my grandfather said that I was smarter than all his sons and grandchildren, because I didn't inherit his and my father's genes." Miao Yiheng smiled lightly. , To put it bluntly.

When he spoke, he seemed a little uneasy. He retracted his hands, clasped them tightly, lowered his eyes, and smiled like a child.

All this was still like a dream to him, if he hadn't seen the legally binding document, he would never have believed it was reality.

No matter what, he felt that all of this was due to Jian Xi's blessing, so now he also came to tell her the secret in return, treating it as a joke for her after dinner, anyway, he had no intention of asking her to keep the secret.

After a moment of silence, Jian Xi was still pondering the meaning of his words—why there is no genetic inheritance at all?And is it really okay for the old man to be so humorous?

Speaking of which, she remembered that Miao Yiheng's parents seemed to have passed away very early, so the old man of the Miao family was still in charge of the company alone at this age.

Before she drank all the milk in a trance, Miao Yiheng finally took the initiative to mention it, otherwise she would have to think for a long time to find the answer with her brain.

"I'm telling you something, I just want to tell you as a joke, I don't mean to treat you as a trash can, didn't you say that you like to listen to gossip?" Miao Yiheng emphasized repeatedly, lest she Misunderstand.

His delicate pale face was even paler under the dim light, his brows and eyes were gentle, and his tone of voice was different from that of the foolish ones before, giving the impression that he was a big boy who hadn't grown up yet.

It turns out that everyone has grown up these days, which is great.

As a reserved lady, Jian Xi lowered her head and smiled shyly, then gently parted her red lips, and said a few words lightly, "Tell me quickly, I will definitely help you keep the secret."

He was right, she just loves gossip.

The smile on the corner of Miao Yiheng's mouth suddenly became more obvious. He raised his hand to shave his cheeks, and nodded in agreement without much hesitation.

"Actually, I am not my father's biological son, but because my mother was unable to bear children as the eldest daughter-in-law, my grandfather had no choice but to bring me here from the orphanage. Therefore, I became Miao Yiheng, and I know it myself, so I have such low self-esteem." He confessed , almost no FAW cover.

After he said this, Jian Xi suddenly understood the meaning of what he said just now.

It's no wonder that the old man of the Miao family would say such things. It turned out that he had long seen Miao Yiheng's cleverness, but he pretended to be cynical because of the oppression of other children of orthodox blood in the family and his own inferiority complex.

It was just to avoid the disturbance from the outside world, and he had no other ideas other than that.

But Jianxi made him change his original thinking, and made him want to try to fight for it for the first time. As the son of Miao's parents instead of an orphan adopted from an orphanage, he is no longer an orphan.

"So that's the case, don't worry, I will help you keep the secret." Jian Xi couldn't say words of comfort. In fact, she didn't think he needed comfort either, so she could only hate his promise.

Being able to tell her such an important secret, he must regard her as a close friend.

Then she can't let him down.

She paid so much attention to it, but Miao Yiheng shook his head indifferently. Since he could say it, it meant that he was able to face it calmly.

Having nothing to say, they quieted down, and the atmosphere was suddenly awkward, but it wasn't an atmosphere that made people want to escape.

Suddenly, Miao Yiheng raised his head abruptly, stared at Jian Xi with wide eyes, as if remembering what he had to say, he clapped his hands, "By the way, I actually had contact with Chi Yichen when I was young, and I have photos , do you want to watch it?"

Like a child, he told her all the gossip he could think of that she might want to know without reservation.

As long as he could win her a little liking, he would be satisfied.

As soon as he finished speaking, Jian Xi responded quickly, "I'm just kidding, of course I have to watch it! Am I such a disapproving person?"

Her reaction was so agitated it startled him.

Fortunately, Miao Yiheng brought the photo album over early in the morning and put it in the drawer under the table. He opened the drawer, took out the old photo album from the drawer, and handed it to her readily.

Jian Xi was so excited that she put the photo album on her lap and quickly opened it.

Who knew that the lower right corner of the first page she saw at the first sight read "May 25th, Chi Jinnian, Chi Yichen, Chi Anche, and Miao's parents Sun Miao Yiheng."

In the photo, Chi Anche's face was not blurred, nor was it scratched.
