âI wonât let go unless you kill me!â Yuan Junkun said with a strong backbone.
Ji Shiting thought for a bit and said, âWhy donât you consider going to Yang City with me?â
âCan I?â Yuan Junkunâs eyes lit up.
âNo!â Old Yuan refused. âStay in the company. Donât go anywhere!â
Yuan Junkunâs face fell, and he hugged her tighter. âYou heard it, Brother Shiting. Dad doesnât allow me to go to Yang City, so donât go.â
âWhy should I listen to you?â Ji Shiting said coldly.
Yuan Junkun was dazed. After a while, he said, âI donât care. I donât want to be separated from you.â
Ji Shitingâs eyes twitched. He thought for a bit and said, âIf you let go now, I promise to come back at least once a month. Otherwise, youâll never see me again.â
âBrother Shiting!â Yuan Junkun was about to cry again. âYouâre too ruthless.â
âIâll count to three,â Ji Shiting said coldly.
However, before he could count, Yuan Junkun retracted his hands and stood up. âCome back at least once a month. You canât go back on your word.â
Ji Shiting nodded and said, âHelp yourself. Iâll head back to my room first.â
He then turned around and walked upstairs, but he heard footsteps behind him.
She turned around and saw Yuan Junkun.
âYouâre leaving soon. Canât I stay with you longer?â He said.
Ji Shiting resisted the urge to kick him downstairs.
The doorbell rang at this moment.
Old Yuan was still in the living room when he heard the bell. He walked over and opened the door, only to see a familiar young woman standing outside.
He looked cautious. âWho are you?â
Ye Shengge forced a smile and said, âIâm looking for Ji Shitingâ¦â
She had called Ji Shiting several times on the way, but no one had picked up. Now, she followed the address he had given her, and it wasnât him who opened the door, which made her have a bad feeling.
âJi Shiting?â Old Yuan raised an eyebrow as he guessed the womanâs identity. He snorted and said, âWe donât have that person here.â
Ye Shenggeâs face paled. âImpossibleâ¦â
Was he lying to her this afternoon? He had said he would come back for her, but he hadnât even picked up her phone and the address was a fake.
She couldnât even stand straight.
Although it was spring all year round in Summer City, it was winter after all, and the temperature at night wasnât high. Besides, for the sake of looking pretty, she was wearing very thin clothing so she shivered from the cold after standing at the door for a few minutes.
She clenched her fist. Just as she was about to give up, she heard a familiar voice, âShengge?ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Ji Shiting walked to the door and saw the woman outside. He walked over and pushed Old Yuan aside.
âWhy are you here? Youâ¦â Before he could finish, the woman had thrown herself into his embrace.
Ji Shiting then realized that the woman was only wearing a thin dress. Her exposed arms were as cold as ice, and her face was pale.
His face turned sullen.
âShiting, I thought you didnât want me anymore.â Her voice was still trembling. âYou didnât pick up my callsâ¦â
