Ji Yan glared at him. Why did this man suddenly become so frivolous? It was as if she had known him for the first time. The two days of getting along had constantly refreshed her understanding of him.
Soon after, the boatman finally stopped the boat. Lin Feng stood behind her and helped her ashore. He said to her, “Go ahead. Call me to pick you up when you are done with your work.”
“What about you?” Ji Yan turned back and asked.
Lin Feng smiled and said, “You don’t think I’m here to have fun, do you? Of course, I’m going to deal with official Ji Gui now.”
Ji Yan shook her head and didn’t say anything. She turned around, waved at him, and walked into the building. She remembered that it was the third floor. This house was very simple and beautiful. She couldn’t help but be attracted by it.
Standing in front of a door, Ji Yan reached out and began to knock. Soon, the door was opened from the inside, revealing a somewhat sloppy face.
Looking at the man with a full beard, Ji Yan felt like rubbing her eyes. “A certificate?”
“What’s wrong? You don’t know me anymore?” The driver smiled and opened the door to let her in.
She pursed her lips and slowly walked in. What she saw was a mess. There were drawing boards, dye, and empty drinks on the floor. The environment made her a little speechless.
“Don’t mind it. I’ll only come here once a week. Sorry to make you laugh at me.” The policeman casually took off the gloves in his hand and threw them away.
Then he went to the sofa full of clothes and pushed Ji Yan casually. “Sit down, don’t be so polite.”
He went to the old refrigerator and took two cans of coffee. He handed a bottle to Ji Yan and asked casually, “Why did you suddenly come to Italy?”
The last time they met was in North River City when they cooperated with each other. They didn’t expect that there would be such a big change in both of them in such a short time. Although they didn’t like to wear formal clothes at that time, they weren’t so sloppy. Indeed, people couldn’t judge a book by its cover.
Of course, at that time, Ji Yan was not as different as she was now. She looked at her curiously.
She chuckled and said, “It’s a long story. A lot of things have happened, so I won’t bother to talk to you.”
Seeing the forced smile on her face, she naturally had some guesses in her mind, so she changed the subject and asked, “When will you come back?”
“Maybe very soon, or maybe I’ll stay in Italy to develop without coming back,” she said ambiguously.
She took a sip of coffee and nodded. “You said in the email that you wanted to talk Ji Gui with me. What’s the matter?”
When it came to serious Ji Gui, Ji Yan was very serious. She took out a document from her bag and put it on the table. She carefully told him the details of the cooperation, then looked at the details and waited for his answer.
The policeman looked at the document without saying anything for a long time. When he looked up at Ji Yan, his eyes were a little light. He casually put down the document and said to Ji Yan, “I have to apologize to you about this.”
The implication was to refuse. Ji Yan was a little stunned. She didn’t expect to get such an answer without thinking. She bit her lower lip and asked, “Can you tell me the reason?”
If the conditions were not good, they could negotiate.
Harry looked at her with disappointment and said in a cold tone, “I once thought that you were a person who was obsessed with art and would never give up pursuing dreams.”
But now, she seemed to have changed into another person in front of him. She had changed into the kind of person he didn’t like the most.
Ji Yan was speechless for a moment, and there was a bitter pain in her heart, as if she had been hit hard in an instant.
He stood up, walked to the drawing board, and continued to look for inspiration. He no longer cared about the absent-minded Ji Yan.
After a long time, he heard Ji Yan’s obscure voice. “You’re right. I don’t think I should have come.”
After that, she stood up, walked out with the documents, and closed the door.
With the brush in his hand sliding down a thick stroke on the drawing paper, he sat there motionlessly and began to think.
After leaving, Ji Yan only felt that her eyes were sore with pain, and her heart seemed to be clenched by something, which made her suffocate. Yes, why did she suddenly become like this?
Giving up her dream and chasing after everything with fame and benefits, could love and hate really change so much for her?
But her mother was dead. Maggie pushed her to death. In order to protect her, she left this world forever. How could she pretend that nothing had happened?
No, she couldn’t. She was no longer qualified to touch any art now!
“Ji Yan, what happened? What’s wrong with you?” She stood downstairs for a long time. When Lin Feng came to pick her up, she found that the ice-cold girl was standing there, like a lost child.
All of a sudden, his heart ached. He wanted to smooth out all of her sadness, as long as he could bring her happiness.
Ji Yan’s eyes were blurred and she couldn’t see the person in front of her clearly, but someone would call her name in such a hurry. She held his hand tightly as if she was grabbing a floating piece of wood. She asked him as if she were asking herself, “What’s the point of me doing this?”
“What’s the point?” Unable to hold back her tears anymore, her face slid down, and she fell in front of him like a homeless vagrant.
Feeling distressed, he put his arm around her thin body, patted her back, and comforted her softly, “Ji Yan, don’t cry. Don’t cry. You’re fine. Don’t cry.”
What was so good about her? Haha, she had nothing left.
“Boohoo.” She actually burst into tears, and her lips were biting so hard that they looked terrible. Lin Feng frowned and reached out his hand to cover her mouth, not letting her teeth abuse her own lips.
“Good girl, don’t cry anymore. Everything will pass.”
“Don’t be afraid. I will be by your side and support everything you want to do,” he said in her ear in an extremely gentle and affectionate way.
He didn’t know what to do. He only knew that at this moment, he wanted to take her into his arms and let himself protect her so that he could love her.
As long as she was willing, he would be her support.
Finally, Ji Yan stopped crying, but her eyes were red, and she looked very pitiful like a rabbit.
Feeling a little embarrassed, she let go of her hand and said to him, “I’m sorry, I…” She actually lost control of her emotions. After trying to suppress it for several months, she still failed.
He touched her hair and said dotingly, “Silly girl, you never have to say sorry to me.”
“You?” No matter how slow she was, she could tell that he was good to her, but it was absolutely impossible. She wanted to get rid of his hand.
Lin Feng’s eyes darkened. He held her arm tightly and said, “Do you know? Ji Yan, I thought you were like my sister the first time I saved you.”
“What sister?” A look of confusion appeared in her eyes.
He said sadly, “You look like her, but my sister is not as lucky as you. She can’t see the beauty of this world with her own eyes.”
“Don’t, don’t think about it. Let’s not talk about this.” She wanted to say sorry, which brought up his sadness.
