Ye Shengge didnât dare.
She closed her eyes, snuggled into the manâs embrace and mumbled, âIâm falling asleep...â
Ji Shiting couldnât help smiling as he looked at the furry head in his arms.
He could feel that the womanâs attitude toward him had changed after last night.
She finally stopped running away.
Ji Shiting was very satisfied.
...
The two of them slept until sunset, and when they woke up, they were greeted by their grandpa.
Ye Shengge felt guilty, but Ji Shiting was calm.
Uncle Jin gave them a report of what had happened last night.
Ji Shiting pointed to the list of victims with a solemn look.
There were twenty people who had died in the accident last night, and nine of them were missing.
Of the twenty people who had died, five were immediate family members of the Xiao family. Those that survived didnât have much say in family matters. Of the remaining fifteen that died, there were three staff members who were just unfortunate, and the others were people that held grudges against Xiao Ruilang. Among them was Ms. Xu, who had humiliated him on the cruise yesterday.
Ye Shengge was relieved that she didnât see Qin Youhuiâs name. She then looked at the name on the manâs finger and took a deep breath. âHeâs too vengeful!â
âThis list is only the tip of the iceberg,â Grandpa Ji said with a solemn face. âZhou Hao has resigned. A new consul will take office in two days. I heard his surname is Jun.â
Ji Shiting closed the name list and said, âZhou Hao is fair and honest. Itâs a pity that he got implicated.â
âI called him, and heâs rather calm.â Grandpa Ji smiled. âInvestigate the background of this new consul. I reckon his appointment has something to do with the Xiao family.â
Ji Shiting nodded, closed the list and handed it back to Uncle Jin. âLetâs eat.â
The dinner was very sumptuous, probably to celebrate their escape. Grandpa was in high spirits, but the main point was just one thingâgreat-grandson.
Ye Shengge suddenly felt a bit emotional. Actually, the old master wasnât actually that anxious. The truth was that he was just lonely.
She felt more stressed at that thought.
After dinner, Uncle Jin handed Ye Shengge the phone with a prepaid phone card, which surprised her.
âThatâs great!â Ye Shengge took the phone. âThank you, Uncle Jin.â
Her phone had fallen into the ocean yesterday, and she still couldnât contact anyone.
âYouâre being too polite, Young Madam.â Uncle Jin smiled and looked at Ji Shiting. âItâs Young Masterâs order.â
Ye Shengge immediately looked at the man beside her and said, âThank you. Thank you.â
The remained rather indifferent.
Ye Shengge returned with a dazzling smile.
Grandpa Ji was relieved. They were very close. Would his great-grandson be coming along soon?
...
After saying goodbyes to Grandpa Ji, the couple returned to Qianfan Villa.
After showering, Ye Shengge called Qin Youhui, Shang Tianyi, Lin Qi, and Director Xu to tell them that she was safe. By the time she finished her phone call, an hour had passed.
Ji Shiting walked out of the bathroom at this moment, and she caught a glimpse of his perfect body.
Although she had seen it many times, she still felt shocked each time she saw it.
Ji Shiting chuckled as he saw her ears turning red. He walked over and pressed down on her.
