Lin Qingqian felt a chill down her spine, but she couldnât blame Han Liubai. She said softly, âLi Ruzhuâs father came to look for me this afternoon.â
The reason for looking for her was self-evident.
Jiang Yanshen knew what kind of person Li Dashun was. He was the same kind of person as Li Guilan. Otherwise, he wouldnât have maintained that dirty relationship all year round.
âExcuse me for a moment.â He let go of Lin Qingqianâs hand and stood up to walk to the bedroom.
A trace of worry flashed across Lin Qingqianâs clear eyes as she looked at his back.
Han Liubai put down his teacup, his clear eyes filled with apology. âIâm sorry, did I cause you trouble? I just thought that since heâs your boyfriend, he should protect you.â
Lin Qingqian retracted her gaze and shook her head. âNo, itâs not your fault.â
Han Liubai stood up. âThen Iâll go back first. Call me if thereâs anything.â
Lin Qingqian sent him to the door. When she turned around and saw that the bedroom door was still closed, she went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.
When dinner was ready, Jiang Yanshen sat on the sofa and looked at the pots of vegetables on the balcony with a thoughtful expression.
Lin Qingqian walked over and called out to him, âHave dinner.â
Jiang Yanshenâs long eyelashes fluttered as he looked at her silently.
Lin Qingqian realized something and explained softly, âI didnât want to hide it from you, but I didnât have the time to tell you.â
âIn the past, you would call me if anything happened.â Jiang Yanshenâs thin lips parted slightly, and his voice was filled with jealousy.
But now, there was another man protecting her. How could he be in a good mood?
Lin Qingqianâs chest tightened, and her voice was low. âYou also said that you were very busy and asked me not to disturb your work.â
Jiang Yanshen: â
If he had a time machine, Jiang Yanshen really wanted to go back in time and shut his mouth.
âA person like Li Dashun is at most threatening me. He wonât dare to do anything to me.â She didnât want to mention the past and make the two of them unhappy, so she changed the topic.
Jiang Yanshen pulled her wrist and let her sit beside him. His voice was cold. âIf he dares to do anything, Iâll kill him!â
Lin Qingqian broke out in cold sweat from his words. Her fingers grabbed his arm and she said solemnly, âDonât mess around. If he dares to do anything, the law will naturally punish him.â
Seeing her serious expression, as if she thought that he would really kill someone, Jiang Yanshenâs lips curled up. âQianqian, are you afraid that Iâll go to jail?â
Lin Qingqian blinked. âWhat else? Could it be that I canât wait for my boyfriend to break the law?â
Jiang Yanshen was stunned. When he heard the words âboyfriendâ, his heart softened inexplicably. He felt like he had been recognized.
His cold white fingers caressed her cheek, and his palm was warm against her skin. His voice was low and hoarse. âQianqian, may I kiss you?â
Lin Qingqianâs breathing paused, and her face immediately turned red. âIf you donât say anything, Iâll take it that you agree!â
Before Lin Qingqian could react, her lips were pressed against his dry lips.
Even after dinner and lying on the sofa after taking a shower, Lin Qingqianâs face was still burning.
Jiang Yanshen kissed her for half an hour, making her mouth go numb.
In the past, when she was with Jiang Yanshen, he always looked cold. It was different now.
Now, they were like a normal couple, ordinary and warm.
When Lin Qingqian thought of his dark face when she asked him to water the vegetables, she couldnât help but want to laugh. She pulled the blanket over her head and fell asleep with a smile.
In her half-asleep state, she saw a person squatting beside the sofa in a daze and almost cried out in fright.
She reached out and turned on the floor lamp. She turned to look at the man squatting in front of her. âAre you trying to scare me to death?â
Jiang Yanshen squatted on the ground with his elbows on his knees and his hands on his cheeks. His clear eyes were filled with curiosity. âBig Sister, why am I here?â
Lin Qingqian was stunned and didnât come back to her senses for a long time.
Jiang Yanshen put down his hands and lay on the sofa, looking up at Lin Qingqian. âBig Sister, the bed in the room is too big. Iâm afraid of sleeping alone. â
âJiang, Xiao Jiu?â Lin Qingqian pursed her lips and spoke carefully.
Jiang Xiao Jiu smiled and said happily, âBig Sister, you still remember me!â
Lin Qingqian: â
She suddenly wanted to take back the words ânormal boyfriend and girlfriendâ sheâd said before bed.
After all, other peopleâs boyfriends wouldnât change into another personality when they fell asleep, and become a nine years old boy.
âThis is my house, you donât have to be afraid! â Lin Qingqian stretched out her hand and patted his back as if she was comforting a child.
Jiang Xiao Jiu turned around and looked around. He said in a soft voice, âBig Sister, your house is so small. Why donât you come with me to stay at my house!â
His clear eyes were filled with anticipation as he looked at her.
Lin Qingqian pursed her lips. âBig Sister wonât live in your house. Can you live in my house in the future?â
âWill Big Sister hit me?â Jiang Xiao Jiu asked.
Lin Qingqian didnât know why he asked this and shook her head. âBig Sister wonât hit you, Big Sister will make delicious food for you.â
âThen Iâll live with Big Sister.â He smiled brightly and immediately held her wrist. âBig Sister, Iâm afraid. Can you sleep with me?â
âHuh?â
âBig Sister, Iâm very obedient. Iâm nine years old now. I donât wet the bed or kick the blanket.â He looked serious. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Lin Qingqian: â.. â
They clearly had the same face, but their personalities were completely different. Even their gazes were different.
Facing such clear and clean eyes, it was really difficult for Lin Qingqian to reject Jiang Xiao Jiu the way she rejected Jiang Yanshen.
âBig SisterâIâ Perhaps it was because she was unwilling to speak for a long time, Jiang Xiao Jiuâs face slowly drooped.
âAlright, Iâll sleep with you.â Lin Qingqian admitted defeat.
When facing Jiang Yanshen, she still had a trace of resistance, but when facing Jiang Xiao Jiu⦠it was really too difficult to resist.
âBig Sister is so nice.â Jiang Xiao Jiu jumped up happily and grabbed her pillow to his chest. âIâll help Big Sister get the pillow. Big Sister, come quickly.â With that, he jogged back to the room.
Lin Qingqian looked at his back and couldnât help but wonder what the nine-year-old Jiang Yanshen looked like.
Would he be like Jiang Xiao Jiu, innocent, cheerful, and cute?
Lin Qingqian walked into the bedroom. Jiang Xiao Jiu was already lying on one side of the bed, leaving half of the bed empty.
Seeing her come in, he patted the empty space beside him happily. âBig Sister, come quicklyâ¦â
Lin Qingqian walked to the bed and lay down. When she turned her head, she saw him looking at her with wide eyes. His bright eyes were so clean that there was not a trace of dust.
âGo to sleep.â She pulled the blanket over him.
Jiang Xiao Jiu smiled and said, âBig Sister, youâre really good-looking.â
Girls mostly liked to be praised for being beautiful. Lin Qingqianâs eyes curved.
âHow many people have you seen? Do you know what beauty is?â
âI know!â
Perhaps it was because he was hot, he lay on the bed, his long legs swaying in the air. He said innocently, âMy mother isnât beautiful. Also, the woman who always stays at my house isnât beautiful. Big Sister Shen is beautiful, but she always forces me to take medicine. Big Sister is still the most beautiful.â
âSo itâs because I didnât force you to take the medicine that Iâm beautiful.â Lin Qingqian smiled.
Jiang Xiao Jiu smiled in embarrassment and lay on the pillow, looking at her witn ms starry eyes. âBig sister, youâre so mce. 1 11Ke you.â Lin Qingqian pursed her lips and didnât say anything.
He asked again, âBig Sister, do you like me?â
âXiao Jiu is so obedient, of course I like you,â Lin Qingqian replied.
âThen can Big Sister always be with Xiao Jiu?â His wide eyes were filled with beautiful expectations.
Lin Qingqianâs breathing stopped.
The word âforeverâ was too strong. Moreover, he was only a personality that Jiang Yanshen had split off. He might disappear one day.
âIs it okay?â Jiang Xiao Jiu reached out and shook her arm, asking repeatedly like a spoiled child.
Lin Qingqian had no choice but to agree and tell him to sleep quickly.
After succeeding, Jiang Xiao Jiu revealed a bright smile and grabbed her arm tightly. âBig Sister, you canât go back on your word. Otherwise, Iâll beâ¦â
Before he could finish speaking, he couldnât help but yawn. He closed his eyes and fell asleep the next second.
Lin Qingqian carefully pried open his fingers and placed them under the blanket. She tiptoed out of bed and walked towards the living room.
Outside the window, the crescent moon hung high, and a few scattered dots of light blinked on the black night sky. Lin Qingqian walked to the balcony and pulled the glass door closed before calling Shen Zhiwei.
After hearing Lin Qingqianâs words, Shen Zhiwei arrived at the apartment 20 minutes later.
Lin Qingqian opened the door for her and lowered her voice. âIâm sorry to trouble you to make a trip so late at night.â
Shen Zhiwei revealed an intellectual smile. âItâs fine. Special Assistant Lu will come and settle the bill with me tomorrow.â
Lin Qingqian was silent for a few seconds and didnât reply. She brought her to the bedroom.
There was only a sleeping lamp lit in the bedroom. The light was dim, and she could barely see the man sleeping soundly on the bed. He was like a heartless big boy.
Shen Zhiwei took out a syringe from her handbag and skillfully injected it into his vein.
Lin Qingqianâs eyes were filled with faint worry, but she didnât say anything.
Shen Zhi glanced at her and placed the syringe back in her handbag. She said softly, âMiss Lin, donât worry. This medicine isnât harmful to Director Jiangâs body. Itâs just a suppressant for his split personality.â
Lin Qingqianâs heart trembled as she thought to herself, âSheâs indeed studying psychology. Sheâs too good at reading peopleâs minds.â
âWill it be Jiang Yanshen who wakes up tomorrow?â
Shen Zhiwei picked up her bag and looked up at her with a smile. âXiao Jiu is very obedient. Heâll be quiet for a long time after coming out to play.â
After a pause, she couldnât help but say, âMiss Lin, forgive me for saying too much, but Director Jiangâs situation is very special. He has both bipolar disorder and a split personality, so try not to agitate him.â
Lin Qingqian blinked. âYou mean that as long as heâs agitated, heâll either have bipolar reactions or Jiang Xiao Jiu will come out?â
Shen Zhi nodded slightly. âYou can understand it that way.â
Lin Qingqian looked at Jiang Yanshenâs sleeping face, her eyes filled with faint worry. âIs there no way to treat it?â
âDirector Jiang has controlled his bipolar disorder very well over the years. Itâs not impossible for him to recover. As for his split personalityâ¦â Shen Zhiwei paused and didnât continue.
Lin Qingqian raised her eyebrows. âWhatâs wrong with having a split personality? Is there no way to eliminate⦠him?â
When she said the last sentence, her voice became inexplicably hoarse. She even felt a chill run down her spine.
She even felt that she was a cruel murderer..
