At eleven oâclock in the morning, Yang Jingyi came out of the police station.
âAre you alright?â Ji Yuanyuan asked in a low voice as she waited outside.
Yang Jingyi shook her head. âItâs fine. Iâve wasted your time. You should go home.â
Ji Yuanyuan was a little worried.
âYang Jingyi, stop!â Xi Xinâan chased after him from behind.
Ji Zixuan stood beside him with a look of despair.
The reason why Ji Zixuan called Ji Yuanyuan was because he could not bear to be disturbed and wanted Yang Jingyi to get rid of this guy quickly.
Who knew that Yang Jingyi would call the police after she arrived?
Someone had to go to the police station to vouch for Xi Xinâan.
Xi Xinâan called him.
After going around, he still couldnât relax tonight. Could he be happy?
Seeing that Xi Xinâan was still going to pester Yang Jingyi, Ji Zixuan was so frightened that he quickly went forward to stop him. âAlright, alright. Hurry up and go home. Your son is still waiting for you at home.â
Ji Zixuan wanted to use Xi Xinâanâs son to remind him not to be rash.
However, Xi Xinâan had drunk some wine, and the alcohol was rising. How could he think normally?
âYang Jingyi, youâre so scary!â he shouted at the top of his voice. âJust a second ago, You are still being sweet with me, but in the end, you turned her back on me. To think that Iâm still wholeheartedly devoted to you. Do you know that Iâ¦â âXi Xinâan, thatâs enough. Who are you acting for?â Yang Jingyi turned around and coldly interrupted Xi Xin âan.
âWhat makes you think Iâll still want you? A piece of trash who betrayed me and was abandoned by another woman. If I really got together with you, then my brain would be filled with water.â
When Xi Xinâan heard this, his face turned red with anger. He even started to stutter, âYou⦠Even if Iâm trash, didnât you still stick to me a while ago?â âI was just playing with you. Canât you tell? Iâm rich and pretty. Why should I take things too hard and go to help the poor?â
Ji Yuanyuan stood at the side and was surprised to see Yang Jingyi go all out.
It seemed that Yang Jingyi really understood.
Xi Xinâan, who had been drinking, was broken by Yang Jingyiâs words.
He pointed at Yang Jingyi, his eyes almost popping out. âYou canât even give birth to a child. Are you still a woman? Iâm probably the only one who would want a woman like you. You still donât like me? What qualifications do you haveâ¦â
Before Xi Xinâan could finish his sentence, he was punched by Ji Zixuan.
Ji Zixuan did not use his full strength, but Xi Xinan was still knocked back a few steps and leaned against the wall.
âXi Xinâan, are you awake now?â Ji Zixuan asked coldly.
Ji Yuanyuan silently gave her big brother a thumbs up in her heart.
Xi Xinâanâs words were really asking for a beating.
Even if her brother didnât do anything, she would have to go up and give him a slap.
If she were to attack, she would not be as gentle as her brother.
This time, Xi Xinâan was lucky.
Yang Jingyiâs eyes were sparkling as if she was going to cry in the next second.
âYou can send her home first. Iâll handle this.â Ji Zixuan turned to look at Ji Yuanyuan.
Ji Yuanyuan nodded and took Yang Jingyiâs hand. âLetâs go. Iâll send you home.â Yang Jingyi stood still.
She raised her head, sniffed, and let out a long breath.
After her expression returned to normal, she turned to look at Xi Xinâan.
âI once loved you sincerely, but at this moment, I can no longer see the shadow of my love in you.â
Xi Xinâan was stunned.
He looked at Yang Jingyi blankly.
Yang Jingyi turned around and left without any hesitation.
Ji Yuanyuan followed behind Yang Jingyi.
When the two of them disappeared into the darkness, Xi Xinâan felt as if she had lost half of her strength. He slowly slid down the wall and sat on the ground.
Ji Zixuanâs heart softened as he looked at him.
âXinâan, I really donât recognize you anymore.â He whispered.
Xi Xinâan laughed bitterly, bent his knees, and covered his face under his kneed.
After getting into the car, Yang Jingyi leaned back in her seat, feeling a little relaxed. âIâm sorry for wasting your time the whole night because of this.â
âWhy are you so polite? However, Iâm still quite happy that youâve come to your senses. A person like him is not worth your trouble.â Ji Yuanyuan started the car and drove to Yang Jingyiâs house.
âIâve been thinking a lot recently, and Iâve been chatting with my mom a lot. Actually, my mom is more open-minded than I thought. Do you know what she told me?â Yang Jingyi smiled and looked at Ji Yuanyuan.
âWhat do you mean?â Ji Yuanyuan shook his head and looked straight ahead.
âMy mom said that if I got married for the sake of getting married, thereâs no need at all. If I meet people like my father and Xi Xinâan, she would rather I stay single for the rest of my life. Even if I donât get married, she can support me for the rest of my life.â
âYou know what?â Yang Jingyi chuckled. âWhen I knew what my mother was thinking, the burden in my heart seemed to have disappeared all of a sudden. I ve been asking myself over and over again these past few days: Will I die if I donât get married for the rest of my life? The answer is no.â
Ji Yuanyuan smiled. âAunty is right. Marriage will only be meaningful when you
meet the right person. Sometimes, the pressure on us is self-inflicted.â
âYes, my mother is a living example. I still remember how scared I was when my mother tried to commit suicide because my father cheated on her. Although I didnât know what suicide meant at that time, that night, I stayed at your house and dreamed that I no longer had a mother. Uncle Zhang took me to the hospital to look for my mother in the middle of the night. The wind was frigid at night, yet I couldnât feel it at all. It was only when I was lying in my motherâs arms that I realized that my hands were frozen.â
Recalling the past, Yang Jingyi sounded nostalgic.
Yeah, I still remember how badly you cried that night.â
The atmosphere was a little heavy, but Yang Jingyi quickly changed the topic.
âBy the way, did I not tell you? Last time, when my grandma was sick, my mom and I went back to our hometown and bumped into my dad on the street.â
âNo, I havenât.â Ji Yuanyuan whispered.
Speaking of Yang Junying, Ji Yuanyuan had not heard any news about him for many years.
When they were young, Hu Chunli and Li Xu would occasionally talk about Yang Junying.
But later, Hu Chunli was probably completely relieved and never mentioned
Yang Junyingâs name again.
âIs he alright?â Ji Yuanyuan asked casually.
âWho knows? He was probably quite satisfied, right? Heâs married again, and his stepson is about seventeen or eighteen years old. Heâs on good terms with him.â
It was a red light. Ji Yuanyuan looked at Yang Jingyi worriedly.
âIâm fine.â Yang Jingyi shook her head with a smile. âIn my heart, heâs no longer my father. Seeing that he was doing well, I heaved a sigh of relief.. This proves that he wonât disturb my mother and my life in the future, right?â
