“If there’s anything you don’t want to say, 1 won’t force you to say it.” Qi Shenbai gently pinched her chin. “But you have to promise not to lie to me.” “I can’t lie to you? Alright, I promise you.” Xu Jiaojiao was soft and cute right now.

She promised that she would not lie to him in the future. As for her lies from before… Well, that was in the past now!

“Then you’re not angry with Xu Zhengyang anymore?” When Qi Shenbai heard Xu Zhengyang talk about the past that day, he really wanted to beat him up.

“I’ve never been angry with my brother. He was still immature back then. He was afraid that I would steal our parents’ love, and he thought that I was troublesome, so he reacted the way he did. I get it. I might not have behaved any better in his shoes!”

Xu Jiaojiao looked perfectly kind and understanding.

“You’re the best.” Qi Shenbai felt that Xu Jiaojiao was like an angel.

“I’m not that good. It’s just that even if we do fight sometimes, we’re still the closest family!” Xu Jiaojiao said gently.

Even if they did fight, they were still family… Was that so?

Something seemed to flash across Qi Shenbai’s eyes.

It disappeared so quickly that Xu Jiaojiao did not even notice it. “I’m very happy now. 1 have my parents, my brother, my grandmother, and… I have you!”

The last part, “1 have you”, sounded light and carefree, but the words carried a lot of weight in her heart.

“Then why did you hide the truth from them?” Qi Shenbai pulled her into his arms.

“Grandma is seriously ill, and she doesn’t have much time left. 1 can’t let her worry about me in her final moments… If I continue to dwell on those things, not only will I hurt myself, but I’ll also hurt Grandma. I’ll even hurt everyone who cares about me.” Xu Jiaojiao was still worried about her grandmother the most.

“I understand.” Qi Shenbai patted her shoulder.

“Yeah…” Xu Jiaojiao replied softly, but she still remembered her promise to Qi Yunduo. She had promised that she would treat Qi Shenbai well and not make him sad…

Xu Jiaojiao’s eyes flashed with an unfathomable look. Qi Shenbai saw it, but he did not pursue the matter.

If she did not say it of her own accord, he would not force her to say it. Even later on, he would use the most extreme methods to make her choose.

In the end, though, he was the one who was left with an aching heart.

A few days later, in the middle of the night, Qingshui Villa was shrouded in moonlight.

Xu Jiaojiao was sleeping quietly in the bedroom when she was suddenly awakened by a nightmare. When she woke up, a cold sweat broke out on her forehead. She turned on her phone and saw Xu Zhengyang’s WeChat message from earlier in the day.

It said that the police had yet to find Lu Huan.

After Lu Huan left the Lu family, she turned off her phone, so no one could locate it. The car she was driving was found parked in the suburbs where there were no surveillance cameras.

If she went into hiding like this, it would be very difficult for the police to find her. After all, there were more than ten million people in Luo City.

Xu Jiaojiao frowned when she saw the message. She seemed to have thought of something. Then, she put on a floral dress and tied her hair into a ponytail before walking out of the room.

At one hour past midnight, the Qingshui Villa was so quiet that she could hear the chirping of cicadas.

When she went downstairs, she suddenly bumped into Qi Shenbai, who was standing in front of the living room window.

He had not changed his clothes. Instead, he was still wearing the clothes he wore to work. Under the moonlight, he looked like a lonely, unbreakable pine tree.

Ever since that incident, he had slept very late every night. To be exact, he did not dare to sleep because every time he closed his eyes, he would think of Xu Jiao jiao trembling in the rain.

As if sensing something, he turned his head and saw Xu Jiaojiao walking down the stairs. “Are you going out?”

Xu Jiaojiao paused for a moment before answering, “Yes.”

“Where are you going? 1’11 drive you.” His words were forceful and did not allow for rejection.

“Okay.” Xu Jiaojiao could only agree.

Then, he brought her to the car. Cang Xing was driving, and Xu Jiaojiao did not dare to ask why Qi Shenbai was still awake so late at night. She only felt that he seemed to have something on his mind.

She had no idea that he was thinking about her.

Behind their car was a business car filled with bodyguards inside.

The two cars drove quickly on the road, leaving behind the high-rise buildings before entering an old road.

The road here was full of potholes and puddles. Cang Xing drove very carefully, but the car was still shaking badly.

Qi Shenbai pulled Xu Jiaojiao into his arms. Her body swayed in his arms, bumping into his chest again and again.

His chest was so firm that she felt a sense of security that she had never felt before.

“Madam, the road inside is too narrow. I’m afraid the car can’t enter.” Cang Xing stopped the car. There was a small road up front.

“Then let’s stop the car here!” Xu Jiaojiao said calmly before getting out of the car with Qi Shenbai.

He held her hand as they walked down the narrow path. Cang Xing and the bodyguards kept a reasonable distance from them.

Both sides of the road were in a mess. There was trash everywhere, emitting a faint stench..
