"Is this your house?" Ji Xiaonan looked out the window at the three-story duplex and his gaze fell on the woman's face.
Shi Nian held her forehead, her red lips slightly parted. She yawned, looked up at the villa that she had not been to in more than half a month, and shook her head. "My family is not that rich."
She waved her switched off phone at Ji Xiaonan, pushed open the car door and got out. She then turned around and instructed, "Wait for me here."
Ji Xiaonan unbuckled his seatbelt and got out of the car, wanting to help her up. In the second half of the barbecue, Shi Nian suddenly started drinking. Although she did not drink much, he was still a little worried that she would fall down the stairs.
The door of the villa opened and a woman about Shi Nian's age walked out. The woman had short, sharp hair, sharp facial features, sword-like eyebrows, and starry eyes. Her nose was high and straight, and her pale lips were slightly pursed. "Why are you here?"
"Lin Xi, I was wrong." Shi Nian could not help but tear up as she hugged her sister, whom she had not seen for half a month.
"Humph." Lin Xi's face was cold and unmoved.
"I got into a car accident some time ago and just got discharged from the hospital."
"What? You got into a car accident? Why didn't you tell me such a big thing? " Lin Xi pulled Shi Nian away and stared into her eyes. "Shi Nian, didn't it occur to you that you have a best friend called Lin Xi?"
Shi Nian grabbed Lin Xi's hand and hugged her again. She said with a smile, "I'm fine. I knew Lin Xi wouldn't be so petty as to get angry with me."
Lin Xi sighed and patted Shi Nian on the back. Her gaze fell on the man who had just walked over. She raised her eyebrows and her eyes were filled with wariness and hostility. "Who is he?"
"Ji Xiaonan, I sent Shi Nian back." Ji Xiaonan looked at the affectionate sisters with interest. He crossed his arms lazily, as if he was going to come in for a cup of tea.
"Oh, the person is here. You can leave now." Lin Xi walked in with one arm around Shi Nian and mercilessly asked her to leave.
"You..." Ji Xiaonan clenched his fists tightly. These two sisters were really not ordinary. None of them were kind to him.
Shi Nian hurriedly patted her arm. "Don't, Lin Xi, help me pay him back for my food and medical expenses first. My phone is out of battery."
Lin Xi stopped in her tracks, took out her phone, turned around and reached out to Ji Xiaonan, "Collect number."
"No, it looks like I need to do something good..."
"Cut the crap. Take the money and leave." Lin Xi said impatiently. In her eyes, Shi Nian was a fool. The boy who appeared beside her was probably not a good person.
With just a glance, Ji Xiaonan could tell that he was the unfathomable king of the fish pond.
Ji Xiaonan was speechless, so he opened the collection code. A light flashed in his eyes, "A total of five thousand."
The transaction was done in one go. Lin Xi waved her phone screen at him, "I'll give you an extra thousand. Stay away from my Shi Nian."
"I..."
Shi Nian covered her eyes. Sigh, Lin Xi always treated men like ferocious beasts. She was used to it.
"Bam!"
As the villa door closed, Ji Xiaonan kicked the corner of the wall angrily and returned to the car with a belly full of anger.
"Tell me, what's your relationship with that Ji something Nan?"
"It's okay!" Shi Nian raised her hand and swore with a serious expression.
Lin Xi handed the fruit plate to Shi Nian, "Then tell me clearly what happened during this period of time."
Shi Nian raised her head and looked at Lin Xi. She could see the secrets in everyone's hearts, so she naturally saw Lin Xi's too.
Lin Xi's secret was the scene of Mu Sichen and Shi Yi's intimate shopping in the mall. She suddenly understood why Lin Xi had always prevented her from being with Mu Sichen. Her good sister had always been thinking for her. At that time, she actually believed Mu Sichen's instigation and took the initiative to cut off contact with Lin Xi for Mu Sichen's sake.
"Lin Xi, I know everything about Mu Sichen and Shi Yi. Don't worry, I won't have anything to do with Mu Sichen anymore. Besides, I'm already married to Chi Beichuan."
"You and Chi Beichuan are married? The president of Imperial Group, Chi Beichuan?" One piece of news after another came in. Lin Xi's eyes widened and she looked at Shi Nian in surprise.
Shi Nian nodded. "It's just a formal marriage. Don't worry, listen to me slowly."
After experiencing a disaster, Shi Nian knew in her heart who should be sincere.
The stars were shining. At this time, a black Bentley stopped in front of the residential area where Shi Nian lived. Chi Beichuan got out of the car and quickly walked in. He pressed the elevator button and pressed the familiar number.
As soon as the elevator door opened, Chi Beichuan rushed out impatiently and rang the doorbell of the house on the left.
"Nian, are you home? I am Chi Beichuan. Listen to me."
The doorbell rang for five minutes. The tenant on the other side of the door opened the door and stuck his head out impatiently. "It's the middle of the night. Are you disturbing us? He's not at home at all. Why are you explaining to the air? If you make any more noise, I'll call security! "
Chi Beichuan turned around and glanced at him coldly. His aura was so strong that the residents immediately shut up and retreated to their rooms.
At that time, after listening to Shi Nian describe what had happened during this period of time, Lin Xi held her laptop and looked up Chi Beichuan's information.
"Nian, Chi Beichuan is not a man you can control. He took over the real estate project of the Imperial Group at the age of fifteen, and at the age of eighteen, he became the head of the Imperial Group. In just three years, he rose to prominence and became cold and powerful. How can such a man not have a shrewd heart? He didn't marry you for any other reason, did he?"
"I don't know why he married me in the first place. Let's just let it be. My thoughts are all on the Shi's right now." Shi Nian pulled the blanket over and laid down. She looked in Lin Xi's direction and said, "Stop checking. I'm sleepy."
"He didn't touch you, right?"
Shi Nian closed her eyes and shook her head. "No, don't worry."
"Shi Nian, I really advise you to stay away from Chi Beichuan. After all, he is no longer of any use to you. I can help you with your business. We can get out of here in time..."
Lin Xi turned her head and found that Shi Nian had already fallen asleep. Lin Xi shook her head helplessly, turned off the light, and lay down.
At the hospital.
Xie Jinzhi had not seen Chi Beichuan since she came back from the bathroom. She was extremely worried when Soong Anya happened to walk in.
"Mom, where is Beichuan?"
Soong Anya looked at the empty ward and her face turned cold. When she faced Xie Jinzhi, she calmed down and said, "Beichuan might have something to take care of. This child, he always does things in a hurry. I'll go and ask."
"Ji Bai is outside, ask Ji Bai."
Soong Anya smiled and nodded. She tucked Xie Jinzhi in and said, "Go to sleep. Beichuan will be by your side when you wake up."
Xie Jinzhi nodded happily. "Alright, good night, Mom."
After settling Xie Jinzhi into bed, Soong Anya walked out of the ward and asked Ji Bai, who was keeping watch in the corridor, with a dark expression, "Where's Director Chi?"
Ji Bai quickly stood up and smiled apologetically, "Madam Xie, something urgent suddenly happened in the company, and the CEO went back to deal with it. If Miss Xie needs anything, just let me know."
"Call him," Soong Anya ordered in a deep voice.
