The next second, the door behind her opened.
Ye Shengge was caught off guard and fell backward. Her eyes widened in fear.
However, the expected fall didnât happen. She fell into a familiar embrace.
The man grabbed her waist and said, âDonât be afraid. Itâs me.â
The man then picked her up.
Ye Shengge burst into tears. She wrapped her arms around his neck and buried her face in his chest, as if the embrace was her entire world.
Xiao Ruilang looked at Ye Shengge, who was in the manâs arms.
...Finding her so soon made it much less entertaining.
He then glanced at Ji Shiting.
Coincidentally, Ji Shiting was also staring at him with a cold and murderous gaze.
Xiao Ruilang suddenly smiled and said, âDonât misunderstand, Brother Shiting. I was just joking with sister-in-law.â
Ji Shiting curled his lips and said nothing more. He turned to the bodyguard beside him and said, âFeng Jing.â
âI understand,â Feng Jing answered and blocked Xiao Ruilang.
Xiao Ruilang smiled again and looked at the two of them. âSister-in-law, you should thank me, shouldnât you... Urgh!â
Before he could finish, he was punched in the chin.
Xiao Ruilang staggered. He looked at Feng Jing, who was tall and burly, and thought that his bodyguard had probably been dealt with by Ji Shitingâs subordinates. He looked at him and said, âDonât slap my face, brother.â
Feng Jing then punched his face again.
...
Ji Shiting carried the woman out of the hotel.
It was snowing heavily in Yang City, and snowflakes that looked like goose feathers fluttered everywhere. All he could see was whiteness. The bodyguards beside him immediately held up an umbrella for him.
Ji Shiting looked cold, but his eyes were especially dark. The woman in his arms groaned and hugged him with her thin arms. She shivered, but it wasnât because of the cold, but because of the drugs in her body.
The man swallowed hard and carried her to the car.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Ye Shengge lay in his embrace, her face burning as she rubbed against his chest.
Ji Shitingâs breathing was irregular. He held her face and wiped away the sweat on her forehead. âIâll take you to the hospital.â
âShiting, help me...â Ye Shengge tried to open her eyes and look at the manâs handsome face.â I donât want this birthmark...â
âYou still donât want to give up.â The man stared at her, his eyes dark. âThatâs why you fell into Xiao Ruilangâs trap, isnât it?â
â...Yes,â she said. âIf you donât help me, Iâll fall into this trap for the second and third time. I canât ignore it as long as someone tells me he knows the secret of the birthmark.â
âWhat are you trying to do, Ye Shengge?â The man was furious. âYou still donât trust me, do you?â
âI just want to be with you.â She suddenly choked, and all the words buried in her heart were finally revealed. âPerhaps you really donât care, but I donât want you to have any regrets because of me. I want to have a child with you, so that grandpa wonât have an excuse to separate us, and I wonât let you have an excuse to abandon me... Itâs not because I donât trust you, but because... I canât leave you anymore...â
