Chapter 315: 315 Desolation and Loneliness (Fourth Watch)

If she hadn’t seen it wrong, just now, that second young mistress from the Li family also had feelings for Song Shiqin.

But Song Shiqin hadn’t even spared her a glance.

Seeing no reaction from Song Shiqin, Chu Jin nudged him again, her tone slightly irritated as she said, "Mr. Song, please let go of !"

Although Chu Jin was imnsely infatuated with his strong, masculine embrace, at this mont, she had to muster all her strength to push him away.

The second young mistress from the Li family was already suspicious of her; if she showed any weakness in front of Song Shiqin now, she would truly be done for.

The imdiate priority was to gain the trust of this military commander! With his protection, no one in Capital City would be a threat to her anymore.

At this mont, Song Shiqin had completely lost his rationality, his mind preoccupied with thoughts of how he should repay her in the future, how to protect her. He hadn’t realized that the person before him had changed completely, from the inside out.

It took a while before Song Shiqin released her, his expression steady as he looked at her and asked in a deep tone, "Does the wound still hurt?" His delicate, pitch-black eyes could not hide his concern.

What wound?

That single question baffled Chu Jin.

Chu Jin didn’t answer, she pursed her lips and cast her eyes down, not daring to et Song Shiqin’s gaze directly.

The imposing aura emanating from the man was truly overwhelming.

And his gaze, sharp as a sword, seed able to pierce through the eyes and see directly into the depths of one’s soul.

In order not to reveal any flaws, Chu Jin had no choice but to remain silent with her lips sealed and not to look at Song Shiqin. She simply brushed off his hand from her shoulder coldly and turned to crouch down to clean up the ss on the floor.

Song Shiqin sighed, looking down at the white figure crouching on the ground as his rationale slowly began to return.

Although he knew there were many suspicious things about her, for so reason, whenever he faced her charming, just-smiling face, an intense sense of guilt arose in his heart, and imdiately, all his doubts seed to vanish without a trace.

He owed her his life.

At this ti, what right did he have to question her?

He dared not question her further; she had finally reappeared, and he couldn’t let his distrust cause her to disappear once again.

No matter who she was.

Just based on her identical appearance alone, he couldn’t bring himself to do anything that would hurt her.

Seeing that she remained silent, Song Shiqin also kept quiet, silently helping her pick up the chairs and tables.

They shared a silent communion.

After everything was tidied, Chu Jin sat on a chair and said coldly, "Mr. Song, please leave."

She hadn’t expected such a major slip up the first ti she pretended to be Chu Jin. Currently, she couldn’t afford any more mistakes.

After returning ho tonight, she would have to study Chu Jin’s social relationships thoroughly.

Song Shiqin sighed with his eyes cast down; it was hard to discern what he was thinking, "Then I’ll co to see you again tomorrow. Don’t mind what Li Mi said. I know she has always been hostile towards you, but don’t worry, with

here, she wouldn’t dare do anything to you."

With that, he turned and left.

The sunlight stretched his figure long on the ground, casting a kind of ineffable desolation and loneliness.

It was unclear whether it was disappointnt or lancholy.

Chu Jin watched his retreating figure and let out a slight sigh of relief. It seed that he hadn’t grown suspicious of her.

But Li Mi was a big problem—she had managed to see through the issue with her face at just a glance.

Listening to Song Shiqin’s words, Li Mi must have had a falling out with Chu Jin before. If that was the case, why would Li Mi defend Chu Jin? The matter was getting more complicated.

She had thought usurping Chu Jin’s place would be simple, but she hadn’t expected Chu Jin’s life to be so complex.

It seed that just imitating her looks was not enough to replace her successfully.

A sense of foreboding began to rise in Chu Jin’s heart; she needed to work even harder.

Inside the café.

Zhang Zijun and Li Mi were sitting across from each other.

Li Mi appeared sowhat agitated, "Zhang Zijun, believe , that person is not Chu Jin! Her face has clearly been operated on. Maybe Chu Jin’s disappearance was orchestrated by her! Don’t be deceived by her!"

The more Li Mi thought about it, the more she felt that Chu Jin’s inexplicable disappearance had to be closely related to that imposter.

Why else would she appear just when Chu Jin disappeared?

As Zhang Zijun leisurely sipped his coffee, the corners of his mouth curled into a smile, "I know you fancy Brother Song, but matters of the heart require mutual consent, and pestering Miss Chu is pointless!"

Ever since their last encounter at the Wen Family, Zhang Zijun had noticed Li Mi’s malice towards Chu Jin, deliberately making things difficult for her several tis. Therefore, he didn’t take her words to heart now.

To say the person just now wasn’t Chu Jin was sothing he couldn’t believe.

Hearing this, Li Mi’s eyes widened in disbelief, looking at Zhang Zijun, "What do you an? Do you think I’m jealous of her? Zhang Zijun, is this how you see ? Think about it, why would Chu Jin disappear for no reason? Why would that imposter appear at such a ti? It’s clearly her ticulous plot! It was all preditated by her. I have studied dicine abroad for ten years, I knew at a glance that she had surgery on her face!"

Why Chu Jin disappeared was unclear to others, but Zhang Zijun understood it better than anyone else.

The incident was just an accident; how could it have been preditated by soone else?

So, he was even more convinced that Li Mi was spouting nonsense.

Moreover, Li Mi had always been fond of Song Shiqin; it was not impossible for her to defa Chu Jin in order to win him over.

Zhang Zijun chuckled lightly, his voice low as he said, "Miss Li, pardon my bluntness, but Brother Song would never take an interest in a woman like you. It would be wise for you to rein in your scheming before it backfires." The last sentence was a warning.

Li Mi could be driven mad by Zhang Zijun.

Even though he was a military man, how could his perception be so poor!

Anyone with clear eyesight could spot the difference between Chu Jin and the imposter at a glance!

Even she couldn’t hold a candle to that imposter’s aura, let alone to Chu Jin’s.
