"If you leave, only you will suffer; if you stay, many others will suffer..." Ou Fengyi’s thin lips moved as he spoke, his eyes arching slightly, "So, co with —"
Ning Xixi stared at him blankly.
She didn’t want Grandpa Ji to die...
She didn’t want the people around her to get hurt because of her...
Thunder roared outside, and rain poured heavily. Finally, she made her decision.
...
Ji Yebai parked the car and stepped into the apartnt, keenly sensing sothing was off.
An uneasy premonition spread in his heart. He strode into the bedroom, the bed was empty. He touched it, and it was still slightly warm.
"Erxi..." he began calling Ning Xixi’s na loudly, searching every room, every corner, but there was no sign of Ning Xixi...
"Ning Xi! Get out here!" Ji Yebai’s voice was hoarse, "You idiot, where have you hidden yourself?"
He called his n, and the trembling voice on the other end said, "Young master... soone attacked us, Miss Ning was taken away..."
"Who took her?!" Ji Yebai ripped off his tie in frustration. His n hemd and hawed, until Ji Yebai roared, "I’m asking you a question, are you deaf?"
Not daring to oppose him, one of his n wiped the cold sweat from his brow, "It was... Ou Fengyi, but young master rest assured, Miss Ning should be safe!"
"She was taken by a man in the middle of the night, and you dare tell she’s safe? If you want to die, just say it. I’ll make it happen!"
The subordinate felt wronged and said timidly, "Miss Ning went with him voluntarily..."
What?!
Ning Xixi left willingly with Ou Fengyi?
This news was like a bolt from the blue!
The call had ended at so point, and Ji Yebai slid weakly against the wall, down to the floor.
Why did Ning Xixi leave with Ou Fengyi? Why now, of all tis?
An image flashed in his mind: in the hospital elevator, the two of them hugging tightly...
Damn it! How could he doubt Ning Xixi?!
She must have her reasons! She must have her own difficulties!
His long fingers threaded through his black hair, and Ji Yebai’s thin lips pressed together, his deep eyes filled with restrained pain.
Erxi, have you abandoned ?
In the silent room, no one answered.
...
The next day.
Ji Yebai had stayed up all night, stood up to stretch, cigarette ashes covered the floor.
The door was pushed open, a ray of sunlight shone in, his eyes lit up, "Erxi!"
His voice was hoarse and low, his handso face dyed with exhaustion.
The next second, disappointnt flooded over him.
It wasn’t Ning Xixi who walked in, but Anna!
She wore a pink and white princess dress, with two playful and cute ponytails, blond hair and tea-colored eyes, looking like a doll in a shop window.
Seeing it was her, the joy instantly vanished from Ji Yebai’s face.
"Yebai... what have you done to yourself?" Anna moved closer, tenderly touching his brows, "Didn’t you sleep all night? You should really rest..."
His chin was covered with bluish stubble, yet he was still handso, now with a more rugged masculine appeal.
Ji Yebai stepped back, leaving Anna’s hand awkwardly suspended in the air.
"Did Ning Xi’s leaving have anything to do with you?" He stared at her intently, trying to find any clues from her face.
"Huh? Ning Xixi left?" Anna blinked innocently, "I didn’t know, but isn’t it a good thing that she left?"
