Jiang Sese was patiently teaching Xiaobao how to draw, and did not seem to notice that someone had entered the room."Now, we'll color in the sun."She was preoccupied with finding a suitable watercolor pencil for Xiaobao, whereas the little child sitting by her side subconsciously turned his head to look behind. He nearly jumped out of his own skin when he saw the man standing behind them. "Daddy, why are you here?"Upon hearing this, Jiang Sese hurriedly turned around to look, only to see Jin Fengchen gently smiling at them."When did you come in?" she asked."A while ago."Jiang Sese frowned. "Why didn't you say anything?"Jin Fengchen smiled and replied, "You were both very serious, and I didn't want to disturb you guys."It was especially because the sight of the two of them drawing together, a large figure huddled close to a tinier one, was so sweet and heartwarming. He simply could not bear to destroy it."Daddy, look! Mommy taught me how to draw this."Xiaobao held up
Jiang Sese made a phone call to Jin Fengyao."My brother is indeed away on a business trip. The overseas company they were working with suddenly went bankrupt, so he went over personally to take a look at what the problem is."Jin Fengyao answered truthfully on the other end of the line."So he's really away on a business trip."Jiang Sese heaved a sigh of relief.Jin Fengyao heard what sounded like a sigh to him, and he raised his eyebrows. "Sister-in-law, are you worried about my brother?""No."She was not worried, but rather, afraid that he was avoiding her out of anger.Of course, she could not tell Jin Fengyao the truth."Sister-in-law, don't worry. Before my brother met you, he was as cold as a gigantic iceberg. No woman could get close to him."When Jiang Sese heard Jin Fengyao's words, her expression turned a little strange. "Does he think that I'm worried about Fengchen having an extramarital affair?"She would sooner believe that there were ghosts in this world th
A black Land Rover hurtled down the highway, beating several red lights, while the traffic police chased after it from behind."You in the car in front, pull over to the side now!"The traffic policeman's warnings kept on coming from outside their vehicle, but Jin Fengyao turned a deaf ear to them.He kept his eyes on the road ahead of him, his expression solemn."Dammit!"He ripped out his Bluetooth earpiece and threw it in the passenger seat angrily.He had been unable to reach even Gu Nian for a while, much less his elder brother."What the hell is he so busy with?"His hand that was wrapped around the steering wheel clenched continuously, as his facial features twisted into an even worse expression."Squeak..."The car screeched to a halt outside the hospital. Jin Fengyao opened the door and got out, ready to enter the building.The police cars behind him stopped as well. Two traffic policemen alighted from their vehicles and hurried over to stop him."Sir..."The man
An alarmed and bewildered look flashed across Jiang Nuannuan's face when she saw Jin Fengyao walk in, but she was able to quickly cover it up. There was an obsequious smile on her face when she said, "Second Young Master, to what do I owe this pleasure?"Jin Fengyao walked up to her and said with a sarcastic smile. "Do you think I'm here to check up on you?"Jiang Nuannuan's face stiffened, but she soon recovered and asked, "Second Young Master, may I ask why you're here then?""Did you tell my sister-in-law to come to the hospital?"Jin Fengyao stared at her without blinking, trying to see if her expression would betray her."Your sister-in-law?" Jiang Nuannuan looked surprised. "Do you mean my sister?"Jin Fengyao nodded."No, I didn't tell her to come here." Jiang Nuannuan smiled shyly. "I think you know that my sister and I aren't on friendly terms. Therefore, how could I have told her to come here to the hospital?""You haven't?" Jin Fengyao narrowed his eyes and didn't se
Without evidence, there was nothing they could do about Jiang Nuannuan.After some thought, Jin Fengyao suggested, "How about we go question her face to face? I'm sure she won't be strong enough to take it and will crack under the pressure.""That won't be necessary." Jin Fengchen kept his gaze on Jiang Sese. His brooding eyes were like deep ponds that no light could penetrate. "As long as she did it, we'll find the proof eventually.""You're right, but she's so cunning that I fear she'll destroy all the evidence.""Where there's a plan, there's a flaw," said Jin Fengchen thoughtfully.Jin Fengyao nodded. "All right. I'll have someone keep an eye on her."He left after that.Jin Fengchen and the still unconscious Jiang Sese were left alone in the ward.Reaching out to caress her cheeks, he looked pained."Why is it that you can never take care of yourself?" he said quietly with a grunt.Picking up her hand, he kissed it gently, then put it against his cheek. There was an almo
His scent surrounded her, setting her mind at rest, and she gradually relaxed."Fengchen.""I'm here.""I should have listened to you."Hearing that, Jin Fengchen let go of Jiang Sese and looked down at her. His eyes were so dark and the look in them so brooding that they reminded her of a whirlpool, sucking her deep into them.Biting her lip, Jiang Sese went on, "I shouldn't have given you that attitude the other day. You were right. I'm not responsible for the loss of Jiang Nuanuan's baby. I shouldn't have pitied her, nor should I have felt guilty."The incident yesterday wouldn't have happened if she hadn't gone soft on Jiang Nuannuan."You're too kind, which has given Jiang Nuannuan the opportunity to hurt you."Looking at the gauze wrapped around her head, Jin Fengchen looked pained. "Sese, no matter what happens in the future, I hope that you can put your own safety above anything else, okay?"She had been injured once because of Xiaobao, and now, she had been injured ag
"Dad, don't you trust me?"Jiang Nuannuan feigned a displeased look and glowered at Jiang Zhen.Jiang Zhen coaxed her right away. "Of course I trust you. I'm just worried about you.""Why are you here at this hour?" asked Shen Shulan.Shen Shulan asked that question because it wasn't time for Jiang Zhen to get off work yet."I heard that Sese had been injured and hospitalized. I'm her father. Of course, I should check up on her."Despite what Jiang Zhen said, the real reason was that he worried that if he didn't show enough care toward Jiang Sese, the Jin Family would come after him again."You're going to see that woman?"Shen Shulan was immediately agitated. "I won't allow it."Jiang Zhen's face darkened when he heard that, and he scolded her. "She's my daughter, too. You'd better watch your mouth.""He's telling me off for another woman!"Shen Shulan flew into a rage right away. She was about to talk back when Jiang Nuannuan stopped her in a hurry and placated her in a lo
"What? That woman doesn't know about her miscarriage?"Jiang Nuannuan frowned at her mother."I think the Jin Family has deliberately kept it from her. If I guessed right, they didn't want to see her sad."Shen Shulan snorted at the mention of that. "I just don't get it. What's so good about that woman? Why does the Jin Family care about her so much?"Jiang Nuannuan shook her head. "No, I won't have it. If she doesn't know about her own miscarriage, then what does that make me?"She couldn't help getting agitated. "She has to suffer the pain like I have!""Nuannuan, don't wind yourself up."As Shen Shulan placated her daughter, she said, "Mom will find a way to break the news to her. Don't worry.""Mom, how can someone like her get all the attention of the Jin Family? Look what happened to me!"Jiang Nuannuan wouldn't be reconciled.After her miscarriage, Lan Sichen kept her company for the first two days, then stopped showing up, saying that he was busy at work.As for his
