Meanwhile, in the Andre Manor.Jin Fengchen walked up to the main house. Yellow spotlights illuminated the trees on both sides.The door of the house suddenly opened, and a tall, young man came out. “Fengchen! We finally meet again!”The man opened his arms and walked toward the two of them. He hugged Jin Fengchen.Jin Fengchen patted him on the shoulder with a thankful smile on his face. “Thank you for tonight, Andre.”“It’s rare that I would be of use to you. Naturally, I am glad to help.”With that, Andre put his arm around Jin Fengchen’s shoulder. “How did it go? Were you found out?” “No, no one’s discovered my true identity, for the time being.”The two looked at each other before laughing.“I really must thank you. I would’ve been in big trouble tonight otherwise,” Jin Fengchen said, raising his eyebrows.Andre pretended to be angry and punched Jin Fengchen on the shoulder. “It's nothing. You helped me so much in the past, and never asked for anything in return.”The
When she walked to the door, the bodyguard stopped her. “Miss Jiang, you leave the vicinity.”Jiang Sese had to accept her fate and walked back to the room.Around midnight, after confirming that the female servant who was watching her had fallen asleep, Jiang Sese slowly opened her eyes.The clock by the bed said it was a quarter before one in the morning.She walked silently toward the window and agilely climbed out.She had not kicked up a fuss for the past few days in order to get to this moment.After a couple of days for observation, she realized that the floor of the room she lived in was not that high. Therefore, she dared to take the risk.With much effort, Jiang Sese stood on the second-floor ledge and looked down at the two-meter drop below her. She took a deep breath.She jumped down without hesitation. As soon as her feet landed, Jiang Sese felt a piercing pain shoot up her ankles. She clasped on her mouth tightly, not daring to make a sound.She dared not hesitat
“Don’t ask so many questions and help me find her!”Fu Jingyun's tone was very impolite. Before Catalina could answer, he had hung up the phone.Catalina was inexplicably furious as she stared at the darkened screen.Now, he dared to be rude with her!If not for being at the whim of others, she would not be so subservient.As time passed by, Jin Fengchen grew more anxious.He kept staring at the darkened phone screen. There was no news about Jiang Sese.‘Sese, where are you…’ Meanwhile, Jiang Sese no longer knew where she was. Staring at the empty streets, she could not help but feel sad and tired.However, she dared not stop. She did not want to return to that claustrophobic space.Then, her stomach growled.She rummaged through her pockets; they were empty.When she escaped, she was not empty-handed. She guessed she must have dropped her wallet when she fell near the entrance. She did not have time to care about anything else at the time.As for her cell phone, Fu Jingy
Maybe she should just find a 24-hour convenience store and stay there for a night. That would be fine.As she made up her mind to say something, Bo Gelian said ahead of her, “Don’t reject me, Sophia. I really want to help you.”Since he insisted, Jiang Sese said, embarrassed, “Mister Bo Gelian, really thank you for…”Bo Gelian shrugged, unbothered. “Just accept my help then. I didn’t mean to bruise you, and I don’t want to owe you anything, alright?”Hearing that, Jiang Sese had no choice but to accept his help. She followed him into the car.Jiang Sese’s fatigue and tension from the whole night were relieved as she got back into Bo Gelian’s car. Her eyes started to close.However, she still remembered that she could not just fall asleep in another person's car.She quietly balled her fist, piercing her nails into her palm to try to stay awake with the pain.Bo Gelian took a look at Jiang Sese’s calf as he lowered the temperature of the air-conditioner. He softly asked, “Sophia
When he saw familiar figures, he would stop his car and observe.No. None of them were her.Fu Jingyun’s expression turned dark and gloomy. He gripped the steering wheel so tightly that his knuckles whitened. He pressed his thin lips tightly, distraught.Milan was so big. Where could she hide?She had no money; she had nowhere to go.If she was thirsty, she would not be able to even afford a drink.As Fu Jingyun thought about this, he wanted to slap himself in the face.She was unfamiliar with this place. She would not even be able to seek help if anything happened to her.If she met anyone with malicious intentions and something bad happened to her, he would live in pain and regret for the rest of his life.However, even if she knew that she was in a tough situation, Jiang Sese still chose to leave him without considering the consequences. She was the one who left. ‘I won’t harm her!’‘Why didn’t she want to stay with me?’While he felt regret, Fu Jingyun despaired in his
“Where are you now?”“I’m in the Hotel Sena, room number 1808.” Jiang Sese hurriedly reported her hotel and room number to him.“Listen, Sese. Starting from now, do not hang up the call and immediately lock the room. No matter who knocks, do not open the door! Wait for me to come over!”Jin Fengchen signaled to Gu Nian. Gu Nian understood and quickly sent his men to follow behind Jin Fengchen and departed.Jiang Sese sat by the bed. She felt like a weight was lifted off her heart as she listened to the voice she missed over the phone.He would definitely come and save her.She could hear the sound of the car engine roaring over the phone. Jiang Sese felt safe; she could tell that he was getting closer to her. She could not help but choke up a little.Jin Fengchen pressed down hard on the accelerator. He feared that if he was late, even for a minute, there would be unforeseen circumstances.Within fifteen minutes, he reached the hotel’s entrance.He looked at the lift that had
The black car passed through green scenery and entered an area filled with villas, then stopped right in front of the innermost villa.The gate slowly opened, revealing a large, sprawling green lawn.Jiang Sese felt a weight lift from her heart seeing all the vast greenery.When they walked inside, she was surprised to find out that the interior design was the same as their house in France.Jin Fengchen smiled when he noticed her surprised, delighted face.However, with his relief, a wave of fatigue followed immediately after.He led her to the sofa and rubbed his temples before she noticed.He had been sleepless for the last few nights trying to find her. Even if he was made of iron, feeling tired was inevitable.Jiang Sese could see his dark circles under the bright light and she felt sorry for him.She put her arms around his neck, softly saying, “I won’t make you worry anymore, okay?”Her sweet breath surrounded Jin Fengchen’s neck. His heart skipped a beat.Instantly, a
Fu Jingyun crossed his arms and leaned back in his seat. He sarcastically said, “If I were to let her go, do you think I’ll still join your organization?”Catalina flicked her ash from her cigarette.She took a drag of her cigarette, went near Fu Jingyun, then exhaled the smoke toward his face. The white fog blurred Fu Jingyun’s vision.Her voice was ghastly. “If you could let go so easily, I wouldn’t have said that.”Catalina hit his exact weakness. He had no way out.Expressionlessly, Fu Jingyun pushed her away in disgust. “Go away.”Catalina returned to her seat, and casually stubbed out her cigarette in an ashtray.When she saw Fu Jingyun going for another round of drinks, she reminded him, “Tomorrow is the day you officially take office. You better not have any incidents.”“You don’t have to worry about that.” Fu Jingyun opened another bottle of liquor indifferently.Catalina was only reminding him out of kindness.Even though Fu Jingyun was very depressed, he was clear
