Jiang Sese wept. Nobody knew how many times she had been woken up in the middle of the night by a nightmare that Jin Fengchen had left her, but she never dared to talk about it for fear that her friends and family would worry. She could only endure it in silence. Upon hearing that there was news of Jin Fengchen, it was as though she had found a vent, and in that moment she wanted to purge herself of all of the horrible dreams she had in this time. Fang Yuchen sat quietly by her side, being there for her and offering a silent comfort. After a while, the sobbing slowly stopped. Jiang Sese looked up, and accepted the napkin that Fang Yuchen offered to wipe her tears. She took a deep breath, “Cousin, how did you find out about this news?” Her voice was a little hoarse on account of her crying. Fang Yuchen pulled out his phone and opened the photo to show her, “The people I sent out took this photo of Fengchen.” Jiang Sese hurriedly snatched the phone and gave it a good look
That night, Jin Fengyao returned home to find Fang Yuchen there. He was very surprised. “Yuchen, why are you here?” Fang Yuchen smiled slightly, “I came to see Sese, and also to tell her we’ve got news of your brother.” “News about my brother?” Jin Fengyao was very pleasantly surprised, “Are you for real?” “Yes.” Jiang Sese replied. She continued, “Yuchen wants to talk to you about how to rescue Fengchen.” Jin Fengyao rushed over to sit with them, “Tell me then, where is he now?” “Country J.” When Jin Fengyao heard this, he smiled. “Our guess was correct then.” “Yeah.” Fang Yuchen nodded. “The people I sent to shadow Shangguan Qian managed to get a photo of your brother.” He pulled out his phone, selected the photo, and handed it over.Jin Fengyao took the phone and gave it a good look. His eyebrows furrowed, “That is indeed my brother, but why was it so easy to take this picture?” Jiang Sese gave him a look when he asked this, “Fengyao, what do you mean? Did you
The next day. Jiang Sese told Madam Jin she was going to the Capital, but Madam Jin immediately stopped her. “Your wound hasn’t fully recovered, what are you going to the Capital for?” Madam Jin’s tone was a little heavy, and she seemed rather displeased. “Mom.” Jiang Sese held her by the shoulders, “Don’t you want Fengchen to come back sooner?” “Of course I do.” Madam Jin took her hand and held it before she sighed softly, “However, your body is just as important. Leave Fengchen to Fengyao and the others to handle, you should just wait patiently at home and recover.” “Mom, I need to go and see Shangguan Qian myself, or else I won’t be able to sit still at home.” Jiang Sese was adamant. She really wanted to see Jin Fengchen, and she wanted to know how Fengchen was immediately. Madam Jin hesitated. If she were to let her go, and any problems developed with the wound, it would be bad. However, if she refused, Jiang Sese would also be unable to be at peace at home. “M
On the way back, Jiang Sese kept looking out the window, not making a sound. Fang Yuchen traded looks with Jin Fengyao, before he asked, “Sese, what’s wrong?” When Jiang Sese heard his voice, she turned and smiled slightly, “I’m fine.” “Sister in law, don’t worry too much. Since Shangguan Qian has agreed to, he will definitely help us.” Jin Fengyao reassured her. Jiang Sese pursed her lips, “It’s not that I’m worrying too much, it’s that I fear Shangguan Yuan will not compromise so easily.” Fang Yuchen smiled, “Don’t worry about that. Shangguan Qian will find a way to fix things. We just have to wait for news from him.” Jiang Sese knew that worrying right now was pointless. She could only silently pray that things would be resolved smoothly. “Okay, don’t think about it anymore. I’ll send you home first, then I’ll send Fengyao to the airport.” “You’re going back immediately?” Jiang Sese looked at Jin Fengyao. Jin Fengyao nodded, “Yeah. Wanwan just gave birth, I’m afr
When Jiang Sese and the others left, Shangguan Qian sat for a long while in the living room before he got up and went upstairs. He entered the study, and pulled out his phone to call Shangguan Yuan who was far away in Country J. As soon as the call connected, he said, “Grandma won’t make it. If you still consider her your family, come back and see her.” After he said that, he did not wait for a reply. He immediately hung up. He gripped the phone tightly in his hand, and his eyes narrowed as they gave off a resolute glint in them. This time, no matter what, he had to make her come back to the Capital. …Shangguan Yuan put down the phone, and frowned deeply. “What’s wrong?” Li Ji noticed her mood seem to sink considerably after taking the call. He hurriedly asked out of concern. Shangguan Yuan shook her head, “Nothing.” “Are you sure?” Li Ji did not believe her. Because her expression did not seem like someone who was okay. “Dad.” Shangguan Yuan bit her lip, “I wou
Jiang Sese went downstairs just in time to see Fang Yuchen return. She looked at the clock on the wall and asked with a smile, “Cousin, why are you back so early?” It was not yet time to clock out. “I’ve got good news to share, let’s talk in the living room.” Jiang Sese did as he said and took a seat in the living room, “What’s the good news?” “Shangguan Qian has called us.” Fang Yuchen said as he took a seat. “What did he say?” Jiang Sese asked anxiously. Fang Yuchen smiled, “He said that Shangguan Yuan will be arriving in the capital in a few days.” “You… are you telling the truth?” Jiang Sese dared not believe it. She was afraid that the greater her hopes, the greater the disappointment. “Yes, I’ve made sure.” After receiving confirmation, the tip of Jiang Sese’s nose ached despite herself, and tears welled up in her eyes. She tried her best to blink them back as she smiled, “That’s great, that’s amazing.” The tears still flowed despite her best efforts. See
A document was open on his desktop, however, Fang Yuchen could not focus on even a single word of it.He was thinking about Gu Nian and Liang Xinwei. The more he thought about it, the more fidgety he became.Gu Nian and Liang Xinwei.This was something he could never have imagined.What shocked him even more, was that Gu Niain liked Liang Xinwei.He closed his eyes and leaned back in his chair.‘What was going on?’There was an indescribable feeling in his heart, as if a hundred claws were scratching at it.It was unbearable.“You’re not jealous, are you?”Jiang Sese's voice suddenly rang in his ears, he opened his eyes suddenly, his handsome face filled with disbelief.No way!He shook his head and said to himself, “How could I be jealous? I’m not interested in Weiwei…”After he said this, his lips inadvertently curled into a smile.…Gu Nian returned that night.Jiang Sese could not help but call out to him, “Gu Nian, did you go to see Weiwei?”“How did you know?” Gu
Shang Ying turned and stared at Jiang Sese silently.Jiang Sese felt uneasy being stared at, and she barely forced a smile, “Aunty, why are you staring at me like that?”“Sese,” Shang Ying finally spoke.“Yeah?”“Could you please keep your personal thoughts in check?” asked Shang Ying.Jiang Sese was a little puzzled and asked blankly, “What thoughts?”“Did you intend to matchmake your cousin with Liang Xinwei?”Jiang Sese pursed her lips without answering. She did indeed have this thought but not anymore. After all, since her cousin had already said as much. It would be pointless now if she continued to match him with Weiwei.Shang Ying sighed, “I told you, I want Yuchen to find a wife that could help with his career and not a widower who is dragging a child along.”A widower dragging a child along?It seemed that her Youngest Aunty had a huge misapprehension of Weiwei.Jiang Sese felt it was necessary to set the record straight but was stopped by Shang Ying before she
