Ji Yan left the campus and went back to the Ji Gui, but Shang Jingshen still stayed up all night and didn’t leave her a message.
The next morning, as soon as she opened her eyes, she saw the man who was leaning against the window and resting with his eyes closed. Ji Yan sat on the bed and was slightly stunned. Then there was a complicated look in her eyes, mixed with a hint of loneliness.
When she came back to her senses, she met his eyes, which suddenly opened. The coldness in his black eyes made her feel at a loss. She murmured, “You, you are back?”
Shang Jin looked at her deeply. After a long while, he let out a sound of acknowledgment. He got up from the couch and was about to wash up.
On the other hand, Ji Yan, who was sitting on the bed, felt that their relationship had become so fragile in an instant that she did not know what to do next.
“Take care of yourself. There will be an interview today.” Because Ji Yan’s series was very popular, the Ji Gui group also intended to respond to the public and let Ji Yan participate in a program. Shang Jinshen did not want to show up, and it was the same for the president’s wife when she came out to face the audience.
Ji Yan remained silent. He was always like this. He would only think of her after giving orders. Why didn’t he ask for her permission?
“Is there a problem?” Shang Jin raised his eyebrows and looked at her. Looking at Ji Yan’s lifeless look, he suddenly felt a little depressed.
She shook her head and went to pick a simple long-sleeved dress. If she could still have some backbone, she should throw her face at him and say that she would quit.
Unfortunately, in the end, she followed him out of the door obediently.
The interview was held directly in the Ji Gui family. When the hostess saw Ji Yan, she greeted her warmly. Finally, she looked at Ji Yan and asked, “Mrs. President’s dress is a little simple. I heard that you are a famous designer. It’s the first time I’ve seen a designer without makeup.”
It seemed that there was nothing wrong with her words, but in fact, there was a hint of contempt in the hostess’s eyes. Ji Yan suddenly felt unhappy.
She touched her long bubble sleeves. Although the wound on her arm had begun to heal, she had been wearing long sleeves for the past few days. In other people’s eyes, she was plain? To put it simply, it sounded nice, but in fact, it was pointing at her.
“There’s no need to record today’s interview. Such a host’s style is not suitable for our Ji Gui family.” Shang Jin put his hands in his pockets and walked over to them coldly. He looked at the hostess coldly.
The hostess’s heart trembled and she suddenly panicked. She even stammered anxiously, “Shang, Mr. Shang, it’s my fault. I will manage it well. Please give me another chance.”
If she went back like this, she would no longer need to be the host in the future. This was undoubtedly breaking her job. The hostess looked at the president’s wife for help. She must have offended the president just now.
She shouldn’t have said that out of contempt. The hostess regretted it very much.
Ji Yan looked at the side of Shang Jinshen’s face and thought, “Is it because of me again? This person is as good to me as he used to be.”
She looked away and said lightly, “Hurry up. I have something to do in the afternoon.”
Not far away, Lan Si suddenly took a deep breath in his heart. The Young Madam’s tone showed her undisguised dissatisfaction with their young master.
Shang Jinshen also looked at her impatiently, but he didn’t get any response from her. He frowned, turned around, and left.
Seeing this, the hostess suddenly felt very grateful. She hurriedly asked Ji Yan, “Mrs. President, can we start the show?” This time, her question could be said to be extremely cautious.
Ji Yan nodded and said, “Don’t call me Mrs. President. Since it’s a series of films, you can call me Ji Yan.”
This was not the only identity she had. If that person could not give her the love she wanted, she would not care about this position at all.
In the following interview, the host asked the question cautiously, with a hint of respect in his words. Ji Yan answered in a decent way.
An hour later, the hostess stood up and wiped away the non-existent sweat on her head. She felt relieved and said to Ji Yan with a smile, “Mrs. President, thank you for your cooperation.”
Ji Yan nodded and didn’t want to say anything more. She turned around and walked out, as if she couldn’t wait to leave the Ji Gui family.
The hostess looked at her back from the back and wondered in her heart, “The relationship between the president and his wife looks quite strange.”
“Young Madam.” Lan Si caught up with Ji Yan and stopped her at the company’s entrance.
“Lan Si, is there anything else?” She stood still and asked softly. Her face was light, as if it was covered with a layer of alienation.
Lan Si was stunned. He thought that Young Master had really made Young Madam angry this time. He thought for a moment and said to Ji Yan, “Young Madam, Young Master has been very busy these days, so…”
She knew that he was busy accompanying Maggie. Ji Yan raised her eyebrows. “Nothing, I’m leaving?”
“Young Madam, in fact, Young Master was saved by Miss Ma when he was young, so…” Lan Si thought about it for a few days, and still felt that this matter should be told to Young Madam.
“Is that why he can’t forget?” Ji Yan lowered her eyes and said softly, “You don’t have to tell me this.” Since it was not what he wanted to say, she should not have known.
She took her bag and walked away. She didn’t know that after she left, Shang Jingshen had appeared behind Lan Si with a cold face.
Lan Si turned his head and saw Shang Jinshen. His scalp tingled as he called out, “Young Master.”
“I didn’t know you had so many mouths.” Shang Jin glanced at him coldly.
“Young Master…”
Shang Jinshen lifted his leg and walked away. He didn’t even look at Lan Si. He knew that the anger in his heart wasn’t because of how much he talked, but rather, it was because she didn’t seem to care about it at all.
The warm-hearted woman seemed to have disappeared in an instant. She looked at him and set up a protective barrier.
“Shen, I’m a little uncomfortable. Can you accompany me?” Just then, the phone rang, and Maggie’s delicate voice came from inside.
“I still have something to deal with. Call the doctor if you feel uncomfortable,” he said flatly and hung up the phone. He was not in the mood to accompany Maggie.
Lan Si was a little surprised to hear this from behind. These days, Young Master had almost answered all of Maggie’s requests. This was the first time that Young Master had rejected her.
“How’s the investigation going on Dark Underworld’s side?”
Lan Si quickly came to his senses and replied, “An official should have sneaked to his hometown in Jiangnan. Dark Underworld is chasing after him, and there is still no trace of Shang Yu An.”
After hearing this, Shang Jinshen didn’t have any expression on his face, but his momentum became more fierce, and his eyes were full of sharp storms.
Maggie, who had been hung up, had her face twisted in an instant. Shang Jingshen couldn’t lie to her when he was annoyed on the other end of the phone. How could he talk to her in such a tone?
He wouldn’t ignore her. Maggie was lost in thought, and her whole person was covered with a layer of gloom.
