The night was as dark as ink, but the Star Nest was bustling with activity.
Under the bright lights, Rong Heng was talking in a low voice with Mo Yongxiu.
You don't need to listen to know that it is for Mo's business.
Mo Ran has always been indifferent to everything about that old guy.
Chi Jinyan cut off the Mo family's business dealings, which made her secretly happy in her heart. It would be best if the Mo family could be completely disintegrated.
Now she only cares about whether there is still hope for herself and Chi Jinyan.
All these years of hard work are just to let the world know that she is the one and only woman in Chi Jinyan's heart.
She was willing to spend all her money to build herself up, and even rented a luxurious villa in a prime location in the city, just to show her deep feelings for Chi Jinyan.
In this materialistic world, it is difficult to get by without money, and her father, who is known for his stingine
A crisp cell phone ring brought Rong Heng back to reality.He stared at the young master's phone but did not move. He hesitated until the ringing sound was almost over before he mustered up the courage to press the answer button.Chi Jinyan's cold voice was filled with displeasure."Come to the company."She hung up the phone before he could say anything.There was an unread message. He clicked it and took a look. It was rare that the young master had sent him a private message.Is it from yesterday?"Cen Xia may really be innocent. This matter ends here. There is no need to look for her anymore."Rong Heng's eyes fell on every word, savoring it over and over again, as if being pricked by a needle, with a painful feeling.His heart was filled with anger, and he kicked the old tree beside him hard. The leaves fluttered down as the tree swayed, looking desolate and sad.Company, Chi Jinyan’s office.Rong Heng was
In Chi Jinyan's study, several photos were quietly placed in front of him.He was still suspicious of Rong Heng's behavior, so that day he arranged for Rong Zhengqing to investigate Cen Xia's whereabouts.After all, he used to be grandma's assistant, and his efficiency was many times better than Rong Heng's.Chi Jinyan glanced at the housekeeper who was standing quietly beside him, then carefully picked up a photo.It depicts an abandoned two-story building surrounded by overgrown weeds and in a messy state.It looks lifeless and it's impossible to imagine that someone can live in such a place."He actually hid her in a place like this. I thought she had already left Qingcheng. It seems like he wanted to wait for me to relax and then quietly take her away."His words were indifferent but contained a hint of bone-chilling coldness. Rong Zhengqing remained silent and did not give any response.Chi Jinyan's gaze rested on the photo
Hearing her brother's comfort, Cen Xia nodded silently.She stared at the figure disappearing from the door with her empty eyes, and only then did she dare to show the disappointment in her heart on her face.Shirley went up to comfort her, "Xia Xia, don't worry, it will be fine."For some reason, after hearing this comfort, Cen Xia couldn't stop crying.Shirley hugged her. "It'll be okay. It's always unsettling to think about leaving soon."Cen Xia sobbed softly on her shoulder."Okay, stop crying. Let me show you the pictures I just took."Cen Xia raised her head and wiped away the tears on her face. "What photo?"Shirley originally wanted to keep it for herself, but only showed it to her because she saw that she was sad."Here, I just took a sneak shot of you."Cen Xia took the phone. In the photo, Cen Ming held her in one hand and bowed his head to comfort her. She looked up at Cen Ming again ..."Look at t
Cen Xia lowered his head and sat silently beside Chi Jinyan. Since getting in the car, the man was like an iceberg and didn't utter a word.He kept staring at her with cold eyes, not knowing what he was thinking. Cen Xia was suppressed by the familiar feeling.A tear fell on the back of my hand.She looked down on herself now, as she had become so fragile after staying with her brother for so long."Cen Xia, if you have trouble controlling your tears, I can help you."Chi Jinyan slowly approached him, that tear made him inexplicably irritated.The sudden approach made Cen Xia's heart jump violently. Her fear was beyond words and she couldn't help but let out a scream.He pinched Cen Xia's face and looked at it carefully, trying to see something.She didn't say anything, she just felt that his aura was different from before, becoming more cold and violent, but his eyes made Cen Xia confused.A car overtook from behind and b
Inside the Cen family villa, the lights were dimmed and it was as bright as day.Mr. and Mrs. Cen were already excited and sat on the sofa with hope in their hearts.From time to time, they looked outside the house, hoping that Cen Ming would send someone to pick them up to reunite with Cen Xia. After not seeing each other for three years, they were so excited that it was hard to calm down.Cen Honghui was well aware of his wife's anxiety, so he held her hand gently and comforted her tenderly.But she couldn't suppress her nervousness and stood up and paced back and forth in the room."Ting Lan, just wait patiently. Aren't you still worried about A-Ming doing things?""Of course I trust Ah Ming, but you know the tricks of that kid from the Chi family. I always feel empty inside and always feel like something is going to happen ... "Although Cen Honghui looked calm on the outside, he was already beginning to feel worried inside.
Chi Jinyan instructed the housekeeper standing outside the door, "No one is allowed to reveal a single word about the Cen family to Cen Xia."Rong Zhengqing paused for a moment, then slowly replied , " Yes, Master.""From now on, no one is allowed to approach here. The villa's dogs should be tied here.""Yes, Master."Then he waved his hand and Rong Zhengqing closed the door for him.Chi Jinyan sat on the sofa beside him, his eyes inadvertently drifting towards the thin figure that was slightly bulging on the bed.I brought her back just yesterday, but she became as thin as a piece of paper overnight, and her pale face completely lost the radiance she had in the photo.Cen Ming called again, and this time he chose to answer the call"Chi Jinyan, you are really cruel and ruthless ... "Cen Ming roared and asked him to move the phone away. He sneered , " Cen Ming, you are still very idle. It seems that too few people in the
Rong Zhengqing didn't take her promise seriously at all. Unable to avoid Mo Ran's entanglement, he reluctantly continued talking."The young master has not returned since Miss Cen left. Some time ago, the young master went to the old lady's place. After he came back, he asked me to take away Miss Cen's belongings. But the next day, he suddenly arranged for Rong Heng to check where she went. He just brought her back a few days ago.""When did you arrange for him to check?""Ms. Mo, I don't remember that." Rong Zhengqing thought for a moment, "Oh, it seems to be the day when it rained heavily. It's strange that Miss Cen has been missing for such a long time before they remembered to look for her."Mo Ran always felt something was wrong when he heard it.She thought about connecting all of this together and realized something.Ignoring the housekeeper who was talking to himself, he turned and walked to a deserted place in the backyard.H
Her heart was beating so fast that she almost suffocated.Chi Jinyan found her shrinking like a snail shell and found it too boring."Cen Xia, I don't have time to play games with you recently, but you are so calm and don't worry about your brother at all ... "He deliberately glanced at Cen Xia, and sure enough, her worried look made Chi Jinyan feel dissatisfied.Cen Xia raised her head and looked at him nervously, "Master Chi, please tell me, how is my brother?""Hmph~ What can happen to someone who can't even die by jumping into the sea? You should worry about yourself.""Are you very proud of the trick you played with Cen Ming?""No ... "“There’s a price to pay for playing this role.”As soon as Chi Jinyan finished speaking, his sharp eyes swept towards Cen Xia, causing her heart to tremble and fear to come over her like a tide.Cen Xia's legs seemed to have lost support and slid weakly to the floor. She tried h
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
