Chapter 125: She Takes Him Home
In the seven-star Grand Hotel of Binjiang CityI vaguely remember the midday sun, she was the one who brought him home.
And he was so drunk that he passed out, wasn't she the one who took care of him all night!
Ji Siyan, seeing Leng Zhujing wake up, still acted coquettishly with her red lips pouted, complaining: "Next time you should just not drink. You don't have a good stomach to begin with, and drinking too much hurts your body. Besides, I have to cook sobering soup for you, change your clothes and wash them for you. I was really exhausted all night!"
It's a cool afternoon, and this is the second time Ji Siyan has looked after him since she returned to China.
Even though he felt a distance from her, he didn't know why. This morning, seeing her cook breakfast for him again softened his heart. He wanted to take her out for a meal and thank her for taking care of him.
"Ajing, do you still hate me" At this moment, Ji Siyan's question pulled Leng Zhurong back from his memories of last night.
Throughout this lunch, she kept asking questions because she noticed that Leng Zhujing was quieter than before.
Leng Zhuxi smiled faintly and replied, "You've already told me the truth about what happened. Why would I hate you"
He should hate, he must hate his grandfather, shouldn't he!
Grandpa, are you so worried that he will be more successful than his older brother
Five years ago, he was worried that if he didn't force Ji Siyan to break up with him, they would study abroad together and come back to marry Ji Siyan. Then, relying on the strength of the Ji family, he would swallow his elder brother's Leng Corporation!
Grandpa was just like Zhu Yuanzhang in ancient times. In order to let his eldest grandson, Zhu Yunwen, successfully inherit the throne, he relentlessly eliminated dissidents for his grandson before his death.
Ji Siyan lowered her eyes pitifully and continued softly, "Then... do you still love me"
After five years, her asking this question again was simply a joke.
How could Ajing still love her Back then, she hurt him so deeply...
But, she also felt that he still loved her.
"I don't know." Leng Zhujing lowered her eyes slightly and said softly.
Ji Siyan's heart skipped a beat, and she unconsciously bit her red lips. After a long time, she finally spoke: "Ajing, I've never forgotten you. That's why I've been single for the past five years and have never dated anyone else. I am pure, both body and mind, when it comes to you!"
Clean mind and body…
Mentioning these four words, Leng Zhujian suddenly thought of Tong Yimo again.
Ji Siyan's mind and body were clean, but what about Yimò
Is Yimou's mind and body no longer clean!
Thinking about this, Leng Zhuxi inexplicably felt a pang of pain in her heart.
"A-Jing, I'm serious!" Ji Siyan saw Leng Zhujing remained silent and suddenly said seriously, "Five years ago, Grandpa Leng said that if I didn't break up with you, he would bankrupt my Ji Corporation. So...I let my cousin pretend to be my boyfriend to make you forget me...But... I still couldn't forget you."
Back then, he pleaded with her so earnestly, begging her not to break up with him and to stay in the country to attend university with him. However, she remained resolute and left for America with that man.
For five years after she left, he forbade anyone around him to mention her name, Ji Siyan.
"That man, is he really your cousin" Leng Zhujing sounded doubtful.
Ji Siyan seemed to be prepared. She hurriedly opened the photo album on her phone and took out the family portrait she had taken with her cousin on his wedding day.
"Look, if he were my boyfriend. Why wouldn't I be his bride And why would I and my parents and brother be standing with them for a family photo" Ji Siyan looked at Leng Zhujing seriously.
Leng Zhujing kept pretending to be calm and composed, but when he saw the tears welling up in her eyes because of her grievance, he could no longer disguise himself.
After so many years, it turned out that deep down in his heart, he still cared about her.
"Ajing, believe me, okay I'm only able to tell you this now because our Ji Shi Group is no longer afraid of the Leng Shi Group! I'm not afraid that Grandpa Leng will use my family business as leverage against me anymore! So, Ajing, these past few months have been so hard for me. I've always loved you but couldn't say anything… " Ji Siyan gazed deeply into Leng Zhujing's eyes, her words filled with emotion. She choked back tears and hesitated before continuing.
Cold noon scenery only felt that his mood at this moment was a little complicated, entangled and messy.
He looked at her with a mixture of emotions, but could only choose to remain silent.
After lunch, Leng Zhjing accompanied Ji Siyan to the department store to select some household items needed after their move.
Originally, the two walked in the shopping mall, one in front of the other, or a distance apart. However, unknowingly, Ji Siyan, like when she was in love, slowly held Leng Zhujing's hand.
His big hand, just like before, was warm, only a little thinner than before.
Looking at Ji Siyan taking his hand proactively, Leng Zhujing didn't resist but accepted it gladly.
The two of them gradually, from awkward to intimate, felt as if they had regained the feeling of being in love again.
"This would look so cute in the living room," Ji Siyan held a lovely ceramic cat figurine to her face, making a playful expression towards Leng Zhjing.
Leng Zhujing smiled faintly and nodded slightly.
They spent the afternoon browsing a department store, and then they went to the market together to buy fresh ingredients.
Dinner in the evening, at Ji Siyan's home, the two cooked together.
He completely forgot about the cold afternoon, he was already a married man, and there was a new bride at home waiting for him to come home for dinner.
Time is from 5 pm to 8 pm.
Tong Yimo sat alone at the dining table, staring blankly at the spread of dishes she had cooked.
Should she give them another call
But…
If he's busy with work, or maybe in a meeting
By now, everyone should be done with meetings, right
Tong Yimo's heart was full of conflict.
Although she was married and had a family, she still felt like she was alone.
Tong Yimo tidied up the bowls and chopsticks, then went out to work at Yehuo.
Here, Ji Siyan and Leng Zhujing finished decorating their new home together. Seeing that Leng Zhujing's head and clothes were covered in dust, Ji Siyan urged him to take a bath. She would help him wash and dry his clothes.
Leng Zhubing has always been a clean freak, not tolerating even a speck of dirt on his body.
Ji Siyan always remembered.
Lán Zhūjǐng didn't even think about it, and went straight into the bathroom to take a shower.
Ji Siyan then began to wash Cold Zhulang's clothes and take them to dry.
Suddenly, she seemed to have found the happiness she desired.
It wasn't until this moment that she realized she had loved him all along.
After coming out of the bathroom wrapped in a bath towel, Leng Zhun saw Ji Siyan ironing his clothes and was suddenly taken aback.
At this moment, he thought of Tong Yimo again.
What time is it now
Cold Noon only thought of checking the time, he picked up his phone and looked, it was almost twelve o'clock!
"Siyan, I should go now."
Hearing Leng Zhucheng speak, Ji Siyan hid the dried clothes behind her back. She walked up to Leng Zhucheng with a gentle expression and said in a coquettish manner, "A-Jing, tonight... stay over..."
"Sichen, actually, I'm already married." Leng Zhujing confessed. This day had been fulfilling, but he felt a knot in his heart.
And that lump, only now did he understand, was Tong Yimo.
He is now Tong Yimo's husband!
"Married!" Ji Siyan was taken aback, staring at Leng Zhuijing's eyes in astonishment. After a long silence, tears welled up in her eyes and she suddenly threw herself into Leng Zhuijing's arms.
Leng Zhucheng stood rooted to the spot, pounding his fists against his thighs, letting Ji Siyan hug his waist.
His gaze darkened slightly, he could see her shoulders trembling slightly, and a warm wave of tears seemed to soak his shirt where their chests touched.
"Ajing... I know, it's too late for me to say this now. But, I still want to tell you. I love you...always have loved you...These past five years in America have been terrible for me." Jisiyan sobbed.
Leng Zhujing could no longer contain himself, he raised his hands and held Ji Siyan in his arms with tenderness.
He comforted her for a long time, her pouring out of her heart, her tears, made his heart ache even more.
If Grandpa hadn't interfered back then, maybe his wife now would be Ji Siyan.
His mood became increasingly complicated...
"Ajing, I really love you so much!" Ji Siyan choked out.
15411/41884070nd, as if looking over some document. He didn't look up and replied faintly, "Thanks, I don't need it."Song Yunxi stared at the man for a long time.The man had a three-dimensional face with sharp faci...
