Chapter 38: Mountaintop Villa

ive impact she had on Jo Shuncheng. 。All she could do was apologize, say sorry sincerely. 。Josiah fell silent for a moment before speaking. 。"Please sit down first. I have some questions for you" 。Jo...Qin Jingwen was sent to Qiao Shunchen's drinking place by the bodyguard guarding outside the door at the fastest speed.

This is a bar, a very large and high-end one. Qin Jingwen came to the place she was looking for and walked straight into the private room.

As soon as I entered the private room, I saw Qiao Shunchen. He was still holding a glass of wine, which was full to the brim. He lowered his head deeply, without making a sound, his expression unreadable.

Sun Xu stood beside Qiao Shunchen, looking worried but unable to speak up and stop him.

Sun Xu saw Qin Jingwen walk in, as if seeing a savior, his face overflowing with hope.

He didn't dare to speak, he gestured with his eyes.

Qin Jingwen understood Sun Xu's meaning, but this kind of situation was the first time she had encountered it in her heart. She was unsure, but she still walked towards Qiao Shunchen.

Approaching Qiao Shunchen, she directly reached out to snatch his wine glass. She managed to grab it, but the wine spilled all over both of them.

"You're getting bolder, daring to steal my wine."

Joe Shunchen's wine glass was snatched away, and he instinctively roared in anger.

He thought the person who snatched his cup was Sun Xu, he raised his head and turned his body just about to continue questioning, but when he saw Qin Jingwen's pretty and serene face, he was stunned.

"Who sent you here"

His expression returned to its usual coldness.

"Nobody called me here, don't drink it, it's bad for your health."

Qin Jingwen's heart was in her throat when she received Sun Xu's call. She had a headache, would drinking alcohol bring on a headache Would anyone around him be discovered Although she didn't know why he was hiding the fact that he had a headache.

"I'll send you home."

Qin Jingwen got up and helped Qiao Shunchen, but she didn't expect that when Qiao Shunchen used force, she fell onto Qiao Shunchen instead, immediately pressing him down on top of her.

"You... you've had too much to drink."

The close proximity between the two sent a blush creeping up Qin Jing's cheeks, her heart pounding in her chest. The scent of alcohol mingling with his masculine aroma filled her senses, and she felt the heat of his heavy breath against her skin.

But Qin Jingwen said that he seemed a bit out of character after drinking so much. The coldness in his eyes remained, his gaze piercing through everything, without the slightest hint of drunkenness.

Although the two had already slept together and had intimate contact more than once, Qin Jingwen was still unable to face this sudden closeness calmly.

She tried to prop herself up with her hands, but was pinned down by Qiao Shunchen's powerful and broad hands.

"Let go, so many people are watching."

Qin Jingwen helplessly could only speak in a voice only the two of them could hear.

"Get out of here."

Joe Shunchen's brow furrowed, his expression darkening as he spoke in a commanding tone.

His orders were not to be disobeyed. With his voice falling, the bodyguards and Sun Xu in the private room quietly walked out.

In the dimly lit private room, only two people were left, their bodies pressed close together. The soft music playing added to the air of intimacy. Qin Jingwen's heart was beating wildly, making her unable to appreciate the beauty of the moment.

"It's too late, and so many people are waiting for you. Let go of your hands, I'll send you home."

Qin Jingwen used all her strength to force her heart to calm down, but the effect seemed insignificant.

"Send me home Home to where Yours Or Eun-seo's Or..."

Qiao Shunchen coldly replied, his voice trailing off at the end. Then a weariness and sadness crept into his expression between his brows.

Qin Jingwen saw clearly and guessed that he must have encountered some difficult problems to drink. But what was the sadness in his eyes from Family Work Or woman

Thinking that Qiao Shunchen might have bought himself drunk because of a woman, Qin Jingwen's heart felt a sour ache.

You can go wherever you want, if you want to go to Song Yien's place, I'll take you there.

“No, I want to go to you. I want to sleep in the same bed with you.”

Jo Shunchen spoke in a scoundrel's tone, but the cold glint in his eyes remained undiminished.

Qin Jingwen was quite helpless at this moment. Looking into Qiao Shunchen's eyes, she saw that his desire for her was mixed with disgust. She couldn't feel any warmth in her heart.

"Okay, you can go anywhere you like."

Qin Jingwen didn't show what she was thinking. Arguing with a drunk person seemed like a bad idea.

Qin Jingwen finished speaking and once again tried to get up, but Qiao Shunchen sent back a teasing voice.

"Why is your heart beating so fast"

"I..."

Qin Jingwen felt a rush of heat as Qiao Shunchen's words struck a nerve. She was flustered, grateful for the dim lighting that hid her blush from Qiao Shunchen's teasing eyes.

"Your heart is beating too, you'd be dead if it stopped."

This time, Qin Jingwen suddenly got up unexpectedly. She quickly turned her head away, afraid that Qiao Shunchen would see her flustered expression.

Qiao Shunchen dismissed everyone, and Qin Jingwen drove him home.

Qiao Shunchen leaned lazily against the back of the passenger seat. Although he had drunk a bit much and was in a particularly gloomy mood, it did not affect his sharp-featured, noble and handsome face.

Qin Jing's gaze couldn't help but steal a glance at him with the corner of her eyes, her heart guessing why he was acting this way today.

"Don't lie anymore, you can achieve the life you want with your abilities."

Qiao Shunchen's cold and aloof voice broke the silence in the car.

Qin Jing turned her head and glanced at Qiao Shunchen, her heart churning.

"Are you so sure I'm a fraud"

Qin Jingwen didn't answer but asked back, she had asked Chu Yang the same question before, but she hadn't gotten the result she wanted. The second time, she wondered if it would be the same outcome.

"Several people have said you are, and you admitted it yourself. What else is there for me to doubt"

Jiao Shunchen's cold and emotionless voice transmitted over.

"Since you're so sure, don't try to change me. I'll walk my own path."

What could Qin Jingwen say What could she explain Qiao Shunchen's opinion of her was deeply ingrained, and she didn't have the power to uproot him.

Qin Jingwen's grip on the steering wheel tightened gradually, because of Qiao Shunchen's disbelief, because of Qiao Shunchen's disdain for her.

Just because Qiao Shunchen considered her a lowly woman, he was determined to make her his. After all, such women only cared about money; as long as they were paid, they would cut ties.

Thinking of these things, Qin Jingwen let out a wry smile.

How could she have brought herself to such humiliation Why would she allow herself to be scorned by men here

"Qin Jingwen, I'm saying this for your own good. Don't confuse right and wrong."

Qiao Shunchen raised his voice, his tone cold and grim.

"Thank you for being so good to me, I'm deeply grateful."

Why wouldn't he give that to Song Eon That kind of treatment is an insult to her.

In Qin Jingwen's view, this man was poisonous and she had to stay away from him.

"Qin Jingwen…"

"Mr. Qiao, we're home."

Qiao Shunchen wanted to lose his temper, but Qin Jingwen stepped on the brakes and stopped the car.

"Mr. Qiao, the child is asleep now. It's best not to speak when you go back. Also..."

"I'm not getting in the car."

Qiao Shunchen spoke coldly, his eyes quickly darkening.

Qin Jingwen turned her head to look at Qiao Shunchen, remaining silent for a long time.

Right now, she was seething with anger. If he hadn't been drunk, she thought she would have kicked him out of the car.

Where to

"Start navigation, it will take you there."

Jo Shunchen coldly finished speaking, then turned his head and stopped talking.

Qin Jingwen drove along the navigation route, and this time, Qiao Shunchen didn't bother her again.

After driving for a while along the navigation route, the car unexpectedly ended up on a mountain road.

Although the mountain path was dark, Qin Jingwen felt a sense of familiarity.

As the mountain road climbed higher, Qin Jingwen's sense of familiarity grew stronger, and her heart pounded in her chest again.

When the navigation ended and the car stopped in front of a villa on top of the mountain, Qin Jingwen was struck dumb, staring at everything before her as if she had been struck by lightning.

Here...

She was all too familiar with this place. She could forget everything about City B for the rest of her life, but she would never forget this villa.

Qin Jingwen held her breath.

"Where is this"

"My home, come on in."

Jo Shunchen gave a cold command, not noticing Qin Jingwen's abnormality.

His house No...

"Is this new"

Qin Jingwen didn't drive, but was once confirming. Her eyes were wide open, unbelievably watching the electric door slowly open.

"Six years have passed since I built it. Do you think that counts as new Stop talking and get in already."

Joe Shunchen was a bit eager, he would come here every time he got drunk.

Joe Shunchen's words weren't particularly special, yet they struck Qin Jingwen like a bolt from the blue, shocking her once again. Her brain lost control, and her face drained of color in an instant, turning pale as death.

Qin Jingwen told herself over and over again that what she was hearing and seeing wasn't real. She must be dreaming right now, it couldn't possibly be reality.

The car crawled forward slowly, but Qin Jingwen couldn't feel herself driving. As they got closer to the main house, her awareness faded, blurring until she could no longer distinguish between dream and reality.

Joe Shunchen was that man, wasn't Qiao Zixuan...

When Qin Jingwen realized this, she was both surprised and delighted.

At this moment, Qin Jingwen's heart was filled with an unusual contradiction. She couldn't accept such a coincidence, yet she hoped that all of this was true.

The car was already parked, but Qin Jingwen still stared blankly at the villa.

"Get off the bus."

Qiao Shunchen's sudden chilliness pulled Qin Jingwen out of her shock.

"I'm not getting out. I don't want to see Song Yiren. I'm going back now."

Qin Jingwen refused. If this was really Qiao Shunchen's house, then Song Yien would definitely be there, and so would the maid who knew her.

She hasn't figured everything out yet, and she doesn't want to be found out when she's not prepared.

"This house is mine. Song Yiren doesn't know that at all. There is no one in this house."

As Qiao Shunchen's words fell, he seemed to press a remote control in his hand, and the whole villa suddenly lit up, becoming bright and dazzling.

Qin Jingwen thoroughly took in the villa, nothing had changed from four years ago, except that the few large trees beside the parking lot seemed to have grown thicker.

This is it, really this is it, she kept confirming to herself.

Now she needs to confirm if this man and that man are the same person.

Qin Jingwen got out of the car, finding that she was weak and could barely support her legs. Every step she took was a struggle.

Stepping into the villa, arriving at the living room, she looked up at the locked bedroom door on the second floor, Qin Jingwen's memories surged in waves.

Four years have passed, and she wants to forget everything here, but it becomes clearer and clearer.

Four years ago, this record documented her most tragic life, and four years later, it was once again overturned. in nature, while Yijing and I are the more active type, similar to my aunt. 。"For so many years, thanks to my aunt for taking care of the children, or else I really couldn't have made it. " 。Wheneve...
