“Let’s start. Come and eat.” Ji Yan made a good meal. The two of them looked at the delicious dishes with greedy eyes and went to wash their hands with saliva. Ji Yan was so amused that she couldn’t help laughing.
After dinner, he coaxed Yan Feng to go to bed. Because of what happened last night, Yan Feng insisted on sleeping with his mommy, so Ji Yan did not refuse. She also told him the story before going to bed. Yan Feng held his mommy in his left hand and his father in his right. He hadn’t let go of her even after he fell asleep.
Ji Yan gently removed her hand and motioned for Lin Feng to go out and talk. Walking into the living room, Ji Yan thanked Lin Feng again. Lin Feng smiled bitterly and said, “Are you treating me as an outsider again?”
Ji Yan glanced at him and said, “Did you pat me to sleep last night?” Lin Feng laughed and said, “Yes, or I’ll have a chance to hold you.”
Ji Yan rolled her eyes at Lin Feng and said seriously, “Don’t make trouble. Let’s be serious.” Then she paused and said, “Nothing happened between us, didn’t we?”
Lin Feng said seriously, “Don’t worry, I will take responsibility.”
Ji Yan was shocked. “Really… really?”
Lin Feng suddenly laughed out loud. “I was just teasing you, you little fool.” He then covered his chest with his hands and said sadly, “Am I that kind of person? Huh?” It seemed that he would not give up until he gave me an explanation.
Ji Yan turned her eyes and smiled. She squinted at Lin Feng and said, “Humph, I am just joking with you.” She felt relieved. Yes, Lin Feng had always been the person she trusted most. Otherwise, he would not have reminded her of her mother.
Seeing that Ji Yan had relaxed, Lin Feng spoke his mind like he was joking. “You know, I can’t bear to force you, so how can I take advantage of others? No matter what, no matter what you want to do, I will always be by your side.”
Hearing this, Ji Yan blushed. She pretended to be calm and answered in a low voice, “I know.” Then she covered up her voice and said loudly, “Well, it’s late. It’s time to go to bed. Go back quickly. Hurry up.”
Lin Feng was delighted to hear that. In the past, Ji Yan had never responded to any confession from him. She always used to keep people thousands of miles away to protect herself. He didn’t know why today, but Ji Yan changed her attitude. This was the hope he had been looking forward to for so many years. Today, he finally saw hope. Lin Feng was not only happy, but also his eyes were shining with happiness.
This light was so dazzling that Ji Yan’s eyes flashed. She knew Lin Feng’s intention and had always known it, but she was not worthy of it and did not dare to accept it. But for so many years, Lin Feng had never forced her to stand behind him silently. Yesterday, when she felt that she was abandoned by the world, Lin Feng’s existence made her feel as warm as a family member.
This kind of family-like warmth made Ji Yan respond to Lin Feng a little bit. This kind of feeling was not as sweet and burning as love, but warm and thin currents that warmed her over the years. If it weren’t for Lin Feng’s reliability, he wouldn’t have made her feel as warm as a mother.
Perhaps such feelings were the best, and they would never burn each other. After he took revenge, maybe he could give Lin Feng an answer.
Lin Feng was overjoyed. He also knew that Ji Yan did not fall in love with him, but finally saw that he was a reliable man. This was already a good sign. One day, Ji Yan would understand that only a man like him was suitable for Ji Yan, and they would be a happy family of three. As long as Ji Yan opened a gap in his heart, he was confident that he could illuminate Ji Yan’s heart and free her from the dark past.
The strong Ji Yan was so heartbreaking. He would never hurt her, and he would never allow others to hurt her again.
“Well, don’t be silly anymore.” Ji Yan really didn’t want to see a president laugh like a fool. She really didn’t know how the people in the company could convince the public when they saw him like this.
“It’s already very late. Can I sleep in the guest room?” As a qualified businessman, Lin Feng was very greedy. While Ji Yan was soft-hearted, he immediately made a request.
“No!” Ji Yan answered with both amusement and anger. She pushed Lin Feng to the door and said, “Let’s go. Let’s go. See you tomorrow.” With a bang, the door was closed. Lin Feng was a little too much.
Lin Feng touched his nose, which was almost hit, and chuckled. The driver who came to pick Lin Feng up was really surprised. He didn’t expect that the president would be so happy after being driven out.
On that day, when Shang Jinshen returned home, the entire Ji Gui was in a low mood. Everyone knew that their young master was in a bad mood, so they were very careful when doing things. If they were careful, they would inevitably be scolded.
He sat in the study in a daze, and his heart ached as if it had been torn apart. He didn’t understand why the woman, whom he had been dreaming about, would be so cruel and kill his child. As Maggie said, was she going to take revenge on him like this because the merchant didn’t give her money?
When Maggie entered the shop, she saw that Jin Shen was drinking, and the grief in his eyes was about to overflow. She secretly hated that the woman had made such a big impact on Jin Shen, so she had to get rid of her.
Why did that woman still have to come back? When Jin Shen’s attitude had softened, she was about to become the young madam of a merchant. This woman’s return had ruined her plans.
Maggie adjusted her expression and asked gently, “Jin Shen, what’s wrong with you? Drinking is bad for your health.”
Shang Jinshen didn’t take Maggie seriously at all. Whenever he thought of how cruel the woman he had been searching for was and how she had killed his own child, his heart would ache. She was so vicious that she didn’t want to eat her son. Why was she so cruel?
Seeing that her kindness was directly ignored, Maggie was very dissatisfied. She had to find another way. She cooked a good meal for Shang Jingshen. She thought in her heart that as long as she stayed with him when he was sad, he would love her more.
Maggie made a table of dishes and went to the study to comfort him. “Jin Shen, I heard from the housekeeper that you haven’t eaten anything for a whole day. How can you stand it? I made a table of dishes, which are your favorite.”
After that, she pouted her red lips, stretched out her fingers, and said in a charming voice, “Look, my fingers are hot.”
Shang Jinshen didn’t seem to hear him. He reached out his jade-like hand and poured a glass of wine slowly. Without looking at it, he raised his head and poured it into his mouth. Maggie was so angry when she saw this. How could he ignore her like this?
“Jin Shen, why are you sad for a vain man? I feel sorry for you! I love you so much! Open your eyes and look at my heart, okay? I’m the one who loves you the most.” She then snatched Shang Jinshen’s wine glass away.
Shang Jinshen turned a deaf ear to it. He picked up another bottle of wine and began to drink. Maggie was furious. She picked up the bottle and fell to the ground. With a bang, the body of the bottle cracked, and the glass splashed on Shang Jinshen’s face, leaving a small bloodstain, but he still didn’t feel anything.
“Ah, I didn’t do it on purpose. Does Jin Shen hurt?” Maggie hurried up to him and wanted to wipe his blood. She didn’t expect that she would be pushed away by Shang Jingshen before she could do anything.
Shang Jinshen felt as if flies were constantly buzzing in his ears. He hated them so much that he couldn’t help yelling, “Get lost.”
