At the end of the song, the audience applauded warmly and praised the performance endlessly.
Cen Xia knew that Chi Jinyan didn't know how to punish her when he returned this time.
This might be the only chance for her to play the piano, so she left her seat reluctantly.
Chi Jinyan was not there, only Lin Lang was sitting there, smiling without hiding his passionate gaze.
Cen Xia walked towards him and felt dazed when she saw the familiar face and the gentle smile.
Lin Lang didn't say anything but just handed her a box.
She subconsciously reached out to take it, opened it and took a look.
I stood there blankly, my excitement turning into tears and falling down.
Lin Lang motioned for her to stop talking, and she nodded.
Before the banquet was over, Chi Jinyan asked her bodyguard to take her home.
On the way back, her heart was surging like waves. She covered her uneasy chest but dared not make any sound.
She was very glad that her brother did not die. She didn't know how he survived. He must have suffered a lot.
My brother is coming to take her home ...
Before Cen Xia entered the villa, the housekeeper told her what to do.
She knew that Chi Jinyan would not let her go easily this time.
Even so, I still try to behave as well as possible.
She seemed to have forgotten the pain in her feet and walked lightly on the path leading to the courtyard.
The tinkling sound of dripping water interrupted her thoughts. She felt that the sound was somewhat familiar. She fumbled around and took out the mobile phone that Chi Jinyan had not had time to take away.
An anonymous text message, even the number is hidden.
She was a little confused as to why she received the message when there was no signal.
"Xia Xia, I'm sorry that I'm late. I'll come and take you home after I've arranged things for my parents."
Cen Xia held the phone excitedly.
Sometimes I laugh, sometimes I cry sadly.
I deleted it quickly but didn’t dare to reply, as Chi Jinyan would find out.
But Chi Jinyan will not let the Cen family go so easily.
My parents were under constant surveillance.
But she knew that her brother would come and take her away.
--
At the dinner, Chi Jinyan and Lin Lang toasted each other and exchanged polite words.
Lin Lang deliberately delayed him and prevented him from going back to torture Cen Xia.
He knew that his sister would not have an easy life in the Chi family, and he also knew that the girl in Xingchao was the sister he missed day and night.
Everything that happened to the Cen family will definitely be returned to Chi Jinyan.
He had made a lot of preparations before coming here.
This time it will not be like three years ago, when I ended up in defeat and had to jump into the sea.
When we first met, I could hardly contain my longing for her and hugged her tightly.
She suppressed her anger and listened to Chi Jinyan teasing her sister.
Such a disgusting and vicious person actually asked his sister to accompany him.
But Chi Jinyan was just outside the door, so he had to go along with the situation and pretend not to know.
But soon he will have his sister back.
No matter what she goes through, he will still love her the same.
Thinking of the humiliation suffered by his sister, he wanted to tear the man in front of him to pieces.
Chi Jinyan, who was whispering with someone, noticed some unfriendly glances.
Turned to look at Lin Lang.
His behavior style was no different from before, and he had enough reasons to suspect that this person was Cen Ming.
He was able to evade surveillance and swap the DNA test results.
But none of this matters anymore.
The two looked at each other, and his eyes carried an unclear meaning.
Cen Ming was thinking that Chi Jinyan might have already known the purpose of his return as Lin Lang.
He also guessed that Chi Jinyan would definitely ask someone to test the relationship between him and his father, but it was useless.
In Qingcheng, no one knew that he was just the adopted son of the Cen family.
But as long as he is willing to cooperate with me, the plan will be one step closer to success.
Lin Lang stood up and raised his glass to drink with him.
Rong Heng also noticed that the two were always competing with each other and neither of them would give in.
Using drunkenness as an excuse to get away, Rong Heng helped him into the car.
It was already early morning, and Chi Jinyan was holding his head in the car.
This game of cat and mouse is about to begin.
"Who is the mouse and who is the cat?"
Rong Heng heard him laughing to himself and knew that Miss Cen was going to have a hard time again tonight.
Quietly open the car window to let him get some fresh air.
"Rong Heng, what's going on with the Cen family?"
He let the wind blow and didn't care.
"Master, the Cen family is still the same. No one has visited them recently."
Rong Heng felt a little guilty. He didn't know whether he should tell the young master what he had found out. He didn't want the girl to suffer the same misfortune again.
"Cen Ming is back, so we should be more careful. But no one can take people away from me, unless ... they are dead."
Chi Jinyan said a few words calmly and without any emotion while drunk, "I didn't expect DNA could be tampered with. Interesting."
Rong Heng was shocked. He didn't expect that he had guessed what he had found out. "Master, are you really not going to let Miss Cen go?"
"Let him go? I won't let anyone who killed Xiao Xia go."
The sound of wind in his ears drowned out Chi Jinyan's last words, and the car drove towards the villa at high speed.
Got off the car.
Chi Jinyan felt a little uncomfortable.
He refused Rong Heng's support and walked steadily into the house.
Cen Xia noticed that Chi Jinyan had returned, and his whole body stiffened, not daring to be negligent in the slightest.
As soon as Chi Jinyan entered the room, he saw Cen Xia kneeling there. She was looking straight at the photo in front of her, but he felt it was even more dazzling.
"Cen Xia."
The figure over there froze, and Chi Jinyan instantly became angry and dissatisfied with her attitude.
"Ms. Cen, you are more confident today because you met an old friend. Are you ignoring me even when I call you?"
Cen Xia turned around slowly but did not get up.
"Master Chi, I'm sorry, I was just praying devoutly for Miss Gu and didn't hear Master Chi calling me."
Cen Xia looked at him, and even though she hated this man she didn't dare to show it.
Soon she will be able to escape from the clutches of the devil and regain her freedom.
She felt relaxed at the thought.
"Master Chi, I said I would be very obedient, do my best to atone for my sins, and not do what he wants."
She knew that it was impossible for him not to see through the insincerity of someone like Chi Jinyan.
Perhaps he was drunk, Chi Jinyan looked at her in a trance.
She was so well behaved today that it seemed unreal.
Under the influence of alcohol, he pulled Cen Xia up and looked at her face.
There seemed to be a sweet fragrance on her body, which stimulated his nostrils. He couldn't help but want to get closer, and his eyes looking at her gradually became filled with lust.
Looking at the person slowly approaching, Cen Xia was filled with fear and did not dare to move easily.
I don’t know what Chi Jinyan is going to do. He has never been like this before.
She pinched her thigh with her fingers, and lowered her brows slightly, looking a little unhappy as the aroma of wine hit her.
"Master Chi, you are drunk . I will make you some hangover soup."
Cen Xia was so anxious that tears were about to come out, and she tried hard to break free from him.
He called Rong Heng to help him into the room.
Chi Jinyan was deliberately forced to drink.
Due to the wind, he staggered a few steps and was pulled back by Rong Heng.
I don’t know why, but as soon as I saw Cen Xia when I got home, I felt drunk and my mind was in a mess.
When Rong Heng went downstairs, he saw Cen Xia standing in front of the dining table.
"Miss Cen, the young master has gone to rest."
After a pause, he reminded her, "Ms. Cen, it's best not to disturb the young master tonight."
Just now he had already seen that the young master had feelings for her.
Cen Xia didn't want to provoke that living devil at all.
"I see. Thank you, Secretary Rong."
"Ms. Cen, Lin ... or should I say Mr. Cen deliberately made the young master drunk, but for some reason the young master did not refuse."
Rong Heng wanted to comfort her and restore her hope.
But since she didn't look very surprised, I knew she already knew.
Cen Xia was surprised that Rong Heng would tell her this."Secretary Rong, my brother has already died once. I don't want him to bear everything for me because of my affairs. I will not think of escaping from here and confronting Chi Jinyan."She bit her lip, her dark eyes bright and sincere, "Although I didn't do it myself, if it weren't for me, maybe Miss Gu wouldn't have died. After all, I can't get rid of my relationship. I will atone for my sins here, resolve the misunderstanding, and gain forgiveness."Cen Xia looked up and forced a smile at Rong Heng. This poor acting skill could not deceive Chi Jinyan, but it was a success if it could make this person have even a little trust in her.She hoped Rong Heng could convey something to Chi Jinyan on her behalf, but she didn't know that Rong Heng had never defended her in front of Chi Jinyan.Rong Heng looked at the woman in front of him with a sad smile, and somewhere in his heart began to ache,
"Cen Xia, you are tired of living."There was a chill in Chi Jinyan's dark eyes. He hadn't treated Cen Xia like this for a long time. He tried hard to piece together the words he had just heard and seemed to have gotten some answer."Is it because of that dead man?"His anger intensified as he chewed the sour bitter taste carefully.There is no light or heavy force in your hands, just apply it gradually.Cen Xia grabbed his arm and instinctively tried to push him away.She could endure any humiliation she wanted.But Chi Jinyan, the enemy who hurt his brother.She would never let him have his way even if she died.As a tear fell on his hand.She lost consciousness and passed out.Chi Jinyan let go of his hand and looked at Cen Xia who had fallen to the ground. A trace of panic flashed in his eyes. He saw her chest rising and falling, and her weak breathing was still there.Her words stimulated him, and an
His gentle words warmed Cen Xia's heart.The brother whom she hadn't seen for three years miraculously came back to life right before her eyes.We are together without words, but real touch is worth more than a thousand words.Silent tears fell on his hands.Cen Ming bent down and hugged her, patted her back gently, and said softly, "Xia Xia, cry if you want to. You don't need to pretend in front of your brother."His voice was so soft that it seemed to melt into water and hit Cen Xia's eardrums. No one had spoken to her so softly like this for more than three years. Cen Xia finally burst into tears.She tightly grasped his clothes and kept murmuring , " I'm sorry, brother. I shouldn't have disobeyed you. I hurt you and my parents. It's all my fault. It's all me ... ""Okay, it's okay. Everything is over. It's not your fault. It's my brother who failed to protect you."Cen Ming has always been very patient with Cen Xia. No matte
"Chi Jinyan."Cen Ming watched his sister being taken away by Rong Heng, and called him unwillingly."You will regret it."He paused, turned his head away and didn't look at him. "The only thing I will regret is agreeing to marry your sister. Cen Ming, I know exactly what you are planning. I'm waiting for you to challenge me."Glancing at him with contempt, Chi Jinyan was too lazy to pay attention to a loser and was reluctant to say a single word to him. He would be unable to sit still and run over to find someone if he got the slightest hint of news.Watching him leave, Cen Ming felt frustrated. He was very scared and worried that his sister would be bullied again.In fact, he knew it in his heart. He had already seen on the day of the banquet that Chi Jinyan had some feelings for Cen Xia.He knew that even if he didn't go to the Chi family, Chi Jinyan might not let his sister die of illness.Chi Jinyan seems to be a bit demoni
The relationship between Mo Ran and Chi Jinyan has always been tense. Unwilling to give up, she shamelessly goes to Mo Yongxiu for help.Naturally, he would not help her, but he was very interested in Cen Xia.He came to the company, and Chi Jinyan only met him briefly. The depressing atmosphere made him catch something.Mo Yongxiu would not miss any opportunity. He took out his cell phone and called Mo Ran, asking her to come to the company to coax her lover.Of course, he would not tell Mo Ran that Chi Jinyan was in a bad mood.It would be best if Chi Jinyan could make that woman disappear completely.Mo Ran glanced at the towering skyscraper. The top floor was Chi Jinyan’s luxurious office, which was also her target.Chi Jinyan, who had just finished a tense meeting, sat in a luxurious leather chair. The collar of his white shirt was slightly open, revealing his delicate collarbone and faintly visible Adam's apple. He closed his ey
The so-called care will make anyone feel uneasy."My name is Qingyun. If Miss Cen has any instructions, please feel free to arrange them.""Order? Chi Jinyan will tell you."She looked at the surveillance camera outside the door. Chi Jinyan was not unaware of what the servants had done over the years.Anyone can bully me here.The housekeeper gave her some instructions and left.Cen Xia saw that she had no intention of leaving, "What does Chi Jinyan want to do?""You should tell me, what does Master Cen want to do?"Her voice was very soft, but Cen Xia still heard it, and her surprised smile was interrupted by her action.She made a gesture to silence Cen Xia, indicating that there was a surveillance camera outside the door, "You can call me Aunt Qing from now on."Cen Xia calmed down, nodded, tears welling up in her eyes, and cried."Is my brother okay? Where are my parents?""Don't worry, Miss. Everythi
Cen Xia was in a very good mood in the villa. The scorching sun ignited her heart, and the flowers and grass in the yard seemed to come alive.A strong desire burned deep in Cen Xia's heart, which began to sprout after her brother appeared. She looked forward to having freedom.Taking a deep breath of the light floral scent in the courtyard is extremely beautiful.Chi Jinyan has an obsessive love for roses, and has planted a lot of red roses in this yard, but he doesn't know why.She felt a little regretful that the flowers in the villa had been dug up for some reason, otherwise she would have been able to enjoy the beautiful branches.Cen Xia doesn't like this place. No matter how warm and beautiful the decoration is, she won't even take a second look at it.Over the years, I have never carefully observed the surrounding scenery, nor have I carefully tidied the yard.Cen Xia was trimming the landscape tree on the lawn, trying to trim
Qingyun walked to her side.Cen Xia turned her head and looked at her. Her gentle smile reminded her of her mother. She hadn't felt that kind of peace for a long time. She really wanted to snuggle in her mother's arms again, but she didn't know if she would have the chance again."Miss, I have already called the gentleman.""Brother, he knows that I ... "Cen Xia lowered her head, and her shaking shoulders revealed her emotions."Sir, you have made all the necessary preparations before coming here. Don't worry, Miss. I will let you leave safely even at the cost of my own life."Cen Xia raised her head, tears welling up in her eyes, "He has already died once for our Cen family, how can I implicate him again?""The young master said that Miss Cen only needs to wait for the right time, and he can take care of the rest. I will be here to protect you."Cen Xia slowly lowered her eyes, and when she opened them again, her eyes were fil
Chi Jinyan was finally defeated by the heavy blow and fell ill for a full half month.Mo Yongzhe would visit him every day, and Cen Ming had also come, but only to deliver an invitation to Mo Yongzhe.He didn't dare tell Chi Jinyan about this, but he eventually found out.He thought Chi Jinyan would be very excited, but he was unusually calm.He lay on the hospital bed, staring at the ceiling with empty eyes, stroking his face. The burns were almost healed, but he didn't want to continue treatment.After a long while, he finally spoke, "Mo Yongzhe, what is MRTC?"Mo Yongzhe was a little surprised by his question, but he didn't ask too much. He just answered truthfully , " It is a treatment method for patients with severe depression, self-harm tendencies, schizophrenia and other emotional disorders.It stimulates the brain through precise pulsed electric current to relieve symptoms. Its side effects are also obvious, which is that it c
Yuankang Hospital.Chi Jinyan's dispute with doctors and nurses continues.He exerted all his strength, but several doctors and nurses did their best to push him back onto the bed.One of the doctors kept persuading him, "Mr. Chi, you absolutely cannot leave the ward in your current condition. Otherwise, if the wound gets infected, the consequences will be disastrous."Chi Jinyan didn't care. He sneered, "Do you still want to stay in this hospital?"The few people remained unmoved. If Chi Jinyan was left with serious scars, it would be the end of their medical career.Old Mrs. Chi stood quietly at the door with a cane in her hand. Seeing her grandson wearing a hospital gown and with a thick bandage on his face, and insisting on being discharged from the hospital, her face suddenly darkened. "Be careful with your words."Chi Jinyan's struggle became quiet when he heard this old voice.He looked outside the door and saw Mo Yongzhe
"Ah Ming, do you think Xia Xia can really come out of this?"Cen Ming walked over to sit beside him, patted his back gently, and comforted him , " Dad, don't worry, she will adapt quickly.""At least she was saved. I will feel relieved if you leave as soon as possible." He turned around anxiously and said, "How long do you plan to stay? Don't let anything go wrong."Cen Ming lowered his head slightly and thought about it seriously. "I want her to try to recall those things by herself. The doctor also suggested that she should try to accept it all by herself, otherwise her memory will be damaged. I think three years is long enough, so I plan to stay for no more than one month.Cen Honghui fell silent. Thinking of the madness of the kid from the Chi family, he was unwilling to change his mind at first, but finally gave in at this moment, "In my opinion, Xia Xia should prepare for the concert, and you should also prepare for the wedding, so that both will
The absurdity of the past is a shadow in Chi Jinyan's heart. He doesn't want to touch it again, let alone mention it.He lowered his head, afraid that those memories would overwhelm his fragile nerves again."Besides," Cen Ming's voice was like a knife cutting through Chi Jinyan's lies, "no matter what happened between you, you didn't really get the marriage certificate. Everything is fake."Chi Jinyan's body trembled slightly, and he was silent for a moment, then said helplessly , " You even know this.""I know everything, including that when she decided to use the child to avenge you, her mental state may have already begun to collapse. You lived with her day and night, but you didn't even notice this."Cen Ming turned around resolutely, his pair of black eyes hidden in indifference behind his glasses, "I won't pursue this with you, please don't bother her again in the future, she is no longer someone you can easily control."After saying
Chi Jinyan's eyes had already turned bloodshot. Realizing his own loss of composure, he slowly let go of her hand.Mo Yongzhe straightened his rumpled shirt and complained , " It's all because of you not coming that I have to apologize to them in person. You know this..."His eyes inadvertently swept across the other person's slightly impatient face. He raised his chin slightly and signaled the other person to look forward with his eyes.There, a white figure, holding a bouquet of flowers, was chatting and laughing with a man beside him.Chi Jinyan froze in place for a moment, unable to believe his eyes.The figure he missed day and night and hoped to see again actually appeared before his eyes."Cen Xia." His trembling and hoarse voice revealed his excitement.She was seen intimately holding another person's arm, and that person was Cen Mingshi.His heart completely fell into a dark hell, but it turned out that his obsession an
Two years later, Qingcheng.A clear and pleasant cell phone ringtone broke Chi Jinyan's tranquility. He lazily reached out and picked up the phone, his face full of impatience, "What's the matter?"On the other end of the phone, Mo Yongzhe's voice was as cheerful and direct as usual, "You kid, you didn't even tell me you were back in Qingcheng. I have something to talk to you about. See you tonight at 8 o'clock at the Light and Shadow Concert Hall."He was about to refuse when Mo Yongzhe's slightly provocative voice came first, "If you don't come, you will regret it."Chi Jinyan frowned slightly. Although he was a little unhappy, he didn't care too much. He snorted lightly, turned over and continued to lie back on the bed.After a while, the phone rang again. It was Mo Yongzhe again. He sighed helplessly and pressed the answer button."If you have something to say, please tell me quickly." There was a hint of annoyance in his tone."W
Mo Yongzhe said jokingly , " We are different. You have no chance at all, but I still have a glimmer of hope in my heart."After saying that, he reached out to take out a cigarette, but Chi Jinyan quickly stopped him, "Xia Xia doesn't like the smell of cigarettes."Hearing this, Mo Yongzhe paused, shook his head, put the cigarette in his pocket, and patted him on the shoulder, "When you are alive, you still have to look forward."Chi Jinyan turned his head and looked at the tombstone. He said in confusion , " Alive? The beating of my heart only proves that I can still breathe, but my soul has been taken away and gone with her."It was not until she left that he realized that she had already been deeply integrated into his life like his breath, and he felt suffocated by the pain when she left for even a second.Mo Yongzhe knew how crazy he was, and tried his best to collect all of Cen Xia's things.But the fire devoured everything, leaving n
Cen Honghui rushed over in the evening of the second day and tested the remains in the villa to confirm that it was undoubtedly Cen Xia.Perhaps because he had experienced too many changes, he remained very calm in the face of the pain of losing his daughter.However, Cen Ming, who was always gentle and kind, finally couldn't help but punched Chi Jinyan, who was like a living dead.Chi Jinyan did not resist. It seemed that his brain had not yet recovered from the reality of Cen Xia's departure.Mo Yongzhe pulled the two arguing people apart, while Chi Jinyan knelt in front of Cen Honghui and begged him to leave Cen Xia's ashes to him.Naturally, the Cen father and son were unwilling to do so. In the end, Chi Jinyan transferred all of the shares of the Cen Group and 15% of Chi's equity to Cen Honghui.Only such a sacrifice earned the right to own Cen Xia's ashes.After the villa was renovated, Chi Jinyan buried Cen Xia's ashes on a hil
Qingcheng, the old house of the Chi family.Chi Jinyan sat quietly in the depths of the study. The setting sun outside the window stretched his shadow long, but it could not touch the haze in his heart.He did not go to the cemetery because he received a video from Rong Heng, which contained not only the crime confessed by Mo Ran, but also the secret about Gu Xia.The sun gradually set, and the light in the study became dimmer. His heart overlapped with the darkness, shrouded by layer of dark clouds.For the hatred of Gu Xia, he hurt the woman he loved deeply.The hurt that had been done to Cen Xia replayed in his mind, and every frame stung his heart.He no longer had the face to return to Hong Kong City and face the innocent Cen Xia.The cell phone rang again and again in the quiet space, but Chi Jinyan seemed not to hear it.Rong Heng hurried over, holding a cell phone in his hand, his face full of anxiety, "Master, the young
