Cen Xia gripped the quilt tightly, her fingertips turning white from the force, contrasting beautifully with the white sheets.
Her eyes were cold as she stared at Mo Ran, her heart filled with disgust. "Is that why you came here to say this?"
Mo Ran shook his head and said proudly , " Of course not."
Her eyes inadvertently swept across Cen Xia's wrist. The pink bracelet exuded a unique glow and it was obvious at a glance that it was worth a lot of money.
The flame of jealousy burned fiercely in her heart, and she wanted to give her a good beating.
"The string of pearls in your hand." Mo Ran paused deliberately, a sly look flashing in his eyes, "I think it looks familiar. Was it given to you by Chi Jinyan?"
Cen Xia lowered her eyes, looking at the string of pearls in her hand, her voice became even colder , " This seems to have nothing to do with you. If you come here to mock and appreciate my miserable appearance, then your goal has been ac
Inside the villa.Chi Jinyan held Cen Xia's bracelet tightly in his hand, with a lot of thoughts in his mind.He recalled the scene when he rushed to the hospital during the day. He saw only a bracelet left by Cen Xia lying alone on the bed, and Mo Ran was tied to the bed legs, his clothes in disarray and unconscious.Even though we took quick action, we still couldn't stop her. In just an hour, she disappeared without a trace.Rong Zhengqing gently pushed open the door of the study, not daring to disturb them. He moved cautiously, walked to the desk, lowered his head and said nothing.Chi Jinyan's thoughts were disrupted. He looked up and glanced at the butler. Seeing that he remained silent, he understood a little bit.Even so, he still held onto a glimmer of hope and asked softly , " Still no news from her?"Rong Zhengqing shook his head and whispered , " Master, the taxi driver did remember the young lady, but he didn't provide an
In a gloomy alley, Cen Xia was busy working in a humble restaurant, her hands dancing swiftly among the plates. After three years of training, she had already become adept at these tasks.The owner of this small restaurant was a kind man. He didn't ask for her ID and let her settle down here.The treatment of including food and accommodation saved her the trouble of traveling back and forth and also reduced the risk of her identity being exposed.Although the meager salary is almost negligible, for Cen Xia, it is the starting point for a new life.It was not until the early morning that Cen Xia finished all his work and lay exhaustedly in a small compartment in the store where sundries were stored.On the day she escaped, she found the report about her mother that Mo Ran had mentioned. She felt heartbroken and locked herself up in an old hotel for two days and two nights before she came out of her grief."Twenty-three days." She murmured, n
Cen Xia took the phone and answered softly , " Oh, I didn't pay for the accommodation, I used that phone to deduct it, but it's far away, in the completely opposite direction from here."She looked down at the new phone in her hand and sighed helplessly.She has lost count of how many mobile phones she has changed during this period. When she was escaping, she didn't dare to take the one Chi Jinyan gave her with her, for fear that it might have a tracking device."But it's not yours, how can you ... "This made Cen Xia worry about his intelligence and said dissatisfiedly , " I changed the password, so of course it's mine."Mo Yongzhe smiled slightly awkwardly when he heard this. She remained calm in the face of danger and was able to quickly settle down and adapt. She hid without a trace. She was truly amazing.Cen Xia stared at him closely, his eyes flickering with suspicion, "Why are you helping me?"Mo Yongzhe was stunned for a mom
Chi Jinyan stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the study upstairs, watching Mo Ran's figure outside the house just as he was observing Cen Xia.There was no emotion in his cold eyes, and the woman in the courtyard made all his painstaking plans go to waste.Therefore, he dismissed all the servants, leaving only the housekeeper and the kitchen nanny, and let Mo Ran clean the huge and empty villa alone.After a long time, he turned around quietly, walked to the desk, and sat on the chair with a melancholy look on his face.On the desk calendar, one red circle after another stood out. Those were the days that Cen Xia had been missing.Six days later, this page will be filled and the new year will be approaching quietly.The door opened slightly, disrupting his thoughts."Uncle Rong, is there any news about her?" Chi Jinyan's voice was full of anxiety, his eyes fixed on Rong Zhengqing who walked in.Rong Zhengqing shook
The beautiful trajectory eventually dissipated in the endless darkness and was reflected in Cen Xia's pupils."The fireworks are beautiful?" a voice sounded in her ears."Yes!" Cen Xia answered subconsciously and turned his head with a smile. When his eyes locked on the person in front of him, the expression on his face suddenly froze.She came to her senses, quickly stood up and wanted to leave, but found that Chi Jinyan had pinned her down firmly in her chair.His breath was so close that Cen Xia felt a sense of danger. She subconsciously stepped back and her heartbeat seemed to stop for a few seconds.Chi Jinyan's right hand rested lightly on the backrest, trapping her in the corner, unable to escape. The back of his other hand covered her pale cheek, stroking it gently with his fingertips. His eyes were deep and sharp, as if he wanted to see through her heart.His Adam's apple rolled, and his deep and magnetic voice gently slid past Cen
Thinking of this, Cen Xia actually felt a little regretful in his heart. A proud person cannot tolerate the slightest mistake, so he makes one mistake after another.But why should she bear all this?She did not refute him, but just lowered her head quietly, her heart filled with complicated emotions.She had paid a heavy price for those two unfaithful people, her youth, freedom, and even her love. This feud had exhausted her and she was no longer willing to guess who the real murderer was.The silence in the carriage made Chi Jinyan feel an indescribable dullness.He has never been good at speaking and rarely talks nonsense, but he wants to communicate with Cen Xia, and he is greedy for the rare ease and freedom when he is with her.However, every communication always ends unpleasantly or provokes anger.Chi Jinyan stroked his brow gently, not knowing how to face her."How did you find me?" Cen Xia was silent for a long time an
Cen Xia woke up suddenly, sat up and found himself lying on the bed.She clearly remembered that she had fallen asleep on the sofa last night. She hurriedly checked herself and was relieved to see that her clothes were neat.Looking around, Chi Jinyan was nowhere to be seen.Realizing that he was lying on the bed where Chi Jinyan had slept, a feeling of nausea came over him.He hurriedly got up and began to look for his bag.Fortunately, Chi Jinyan did not take away her things, including the bracelet that made her feel uncomfortable.I turned off my cell phone when I boarded the plane last night. Cen Xia felt panicked and immediately turned on my cell phone. Text messages and missed calls kept popping up.She walked to the window and called her brother.The bell rang once, and my brother's anxious voice came , " Xia Xia, are you okay?""Brother, I'm fine." Cen Xia's voice was choked with sobs. Before she finished speaking,
Cen Xia thought of Gu Xia's bracelet in her bag, and the unpleasant past with Fan Yiming emerged in her mind. She felt disgusted and subconsciously wanted to take off the bracelet.Chi Jinyan moved faster than her. He said firmly , " I said that only I can take off this bracelet." He moved closer to her and gently kissed her forehead.Cen Xia was stunned for a moment, and then felt the skin on his forehead seem to be on fire.She reached out to touch the place that had been kissed and rubbed it fiercely, swearing to herself that she would poison him to death with those carcinogenic cosmetics.Chi Jinyan looked at her cute, slightly annoyed look, and a smug smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.Western restaurant downstairs.Chi Jinyan gently pulled out a chair for her like a gentleman.Cen Xia felt a little puzzled by this. Since he didn't like her, why was he so considerate to her?She looked around. Today was the New Year
