At night, after Pei Shanshan fell asleep, Ruan Xingwan returned to the next door.
Zhou Cishen was sitting on the sofa, reading a book. When he heard the door open, he didn't react at all.
Ruan Xingwan felt a little sleepy. As she walked to the bedroom, she said, "Have you taken a shower?"
Zhou Cishen said calmly: "Wash it."
Ruan Xingwan took out his pajamas and came out: "It's quite late, why don't you go to bed?"
"Um."
His tone was neither cold nor indifferent, without even any ups and downs.
Ruan Xingwan paused, turned around, and sat next to him: "What's wrong with you?"
Zhou Cishen turned a page of the book in his hand: "It's nothing. If you want to take a shower, just go and don't worry about me."
Ruan Xingwan: "..."
What kind of trouble is this guy making?
Ruan Xingwan leaned over and found that he could read, but she couldn't understand a word, so she asked, "What are you reading?"
"Buddhist scriptures."
Ruan Xingwan: "..."
He is poisonous.
Before Ruan Xingwan could speak, Zhou Cishen continued in a calm voice: "I have been sleeping alone for three days. It's time to read some Buddhist scriptures to cultivate my character."
Hearing this, Ruan Xingwan suddenly felt angry and funny. He took the book out of his hand and put it aside: "You are not a child anymore, do you still want me to accompany you?"
Zhou Cishen looked at her: "Why not? I can't sleep without you."
Ruan Xingwan got up and rubbed his hair randomly, as if coaxing a child: "Okay, okay, I'll take a shower and sleep with you tonight."
Just as she was about to leave, her wrist was held.
The next second, he fell into the man's arms.
Zhou Cishen put his hand on her waist and said slowly: "How can I accompany you?"
"Sleep, how else can I accompany you?"
"What we understand by sleeping probably doesn't mean the same thing."
Ruan Xingwan gritted his teeth: "Be a human being."
Zhou Cishen's lips curled up, he leaned over and kissed her on the lips, then hugged her and stood up.
Ruan Xingwan said: "What are you doing? I want to take a bath..."
"Together."
"Didn't you say you had already washed it?"
"You've already slept with me, what's wrong if I wash it with you again?"
Ruan Xingwan: "..."
Lying in bed, it was already two hours later.
Ruan Xingwan's eyelids were so sleepy that she yawned: "How have you been in the studio these two days?"
“It feels good to eat soft rice.”
Zhou Cishen continued, "You work hard to make the studio bigger, and I will help you manage the money."
Ruan Xingwan no longer had the energy to scold him, and after a while she said again: "Ning Ning... still no news?"
Zhou Cishen hummed: "No news is good news."
"That's true."
Zhou Cishen pulled her into his arms: "Okay, aren't you tired? Go to sleep."
Ruan Xingwan was really sleepy. He closed his eyes and fell asleep soon.
…
Jiang Chuning had stayed in that room for three full days. Every day they would deliver her meals on time and lock the door after delivering the meals.
There were all their people downstairs, and there was no way she could escape.
Day after day, she began to miss home more and more, missing her father and great-grandfather.
If she were obedient, stayed in Jiangzhou, or even married Jiang Shanghan, her situation would be better than her current situation.
At least she was free every day. Even if she made him unhappy, before he killed her, she could still ask him to give her a good meal in the name of Grandpa Jiang who passed away.
It won’t involve my second uncle and Sister Shanshan either…
Jiang Chuning fell on the bed and looked ahead helplessly, as if he was no longer interested in anything.
I don’t know how long it took, but when the moon was high in the sky and the night was dark, a fire lit up in the house next door.
It suddenly became noisy outside.
Jiang Chuning heard the sound and walked to the window. Seeing the huge fire next door, the heat seemed to have spread to him.
The people below were walking back and forth, no one knew what they were doing, and they seemed to have no time to pay attention to her.
It's an opportunity.
Jiang Chuning quickly pulled down the sheets and tied them into a knot, intending to jump out of the window in the confusion.
But before she could complete this complicated series of processes, the door to the room had been opened.
The man looked at her and understood her intention instantly: "I'm warning Miss Guo Jiang not to play tricks again."
After speaking, he directly grabbed Jiang Chuning's arm and dragged her downstairs.
Jiang Chuning was completely uncooperative, causing him to stumble all along the way, leaving bruises on his face and legs.
After going downstairs, she was put into a car and prepared to be transferred to another place.
Jiang Chuning kept beating the car window and shouted: "Help! Help!"
Unfortunately, the fire was too strong and the noise outside drowned out her shouts.
Soon, the black car left quickly.
Jiang Chuning was thrown directly onto his seat, and his head felt dizzy and painful after being hit.
After the car drove a certain distance, a roadblock appeared in front of it.
The driver got out of the car to check. He just took two steps and fell down silently.
The man frowned fiercely, quickly grabbed the gun in his arms, got out of the car, and walked to the driver's side. Just as he squatted down to check, there was a sudden bang from the car behind him.
He turned around, but it was too late, the car sped out in an instant.
The man cursed: "Fuck! I've been fooled!"
Just as he was about to step forward, there were several dark muzzles around him.
In the car, Jiang Chuning was thrown away by the car again, but he could not conceal his excitement of being rescued: "Are you my father's person?"
"no."
"Then you are my second uncle's person?"
"No."
"Then you...are Zhou Cishen's person?"
The person in front turned around and looked at her: "I am your brother."
Jiang Chuning was stunned: "I...I don't have a brother..."
"I lied to you."
Jiang Chuning: "..."
Looking at the inexplicable stranger in front of him, Jiang Chuning couldn't help but shrink back a little, feeling like he had just stepped out of the tiger's den and into the wolf's den.
After a while, she whispered: "You...where are you going to take me."
"Send you back to Jiangzhou."
"You are a bad person! I don't want to go with you!"
"...Where did you see it?"
Jiang Chuning said: "My father said, don't trust anyone from the Jiang family, and don't go back to Jiangzhou with them!"
"Then you still go with your second uncle?"
"That's my second uncle! And...and he doesn't want to send me back to Jiangzhou, he just takes me to a safe place."
The driver said funnyly: "He is your second uncle, you don't even listen to your father and you insist on believing him. I said I am your brother, why don't you believe me?"
"My second uncle is my second uncle, but I don't have an older brother. You are lying to me...!"
"Why did I lie to you? You were less than a year old when I left Jiangzhou.
But we are indeed not brothers and sisters. You were picked up by your father. For so many years, he was afraid that you would be sad, so he kept hiding the truth about you."
Jiang Chuning's eyes widened in disbelief: "You...you're talking nonsense..."
"Why am I talking nonsense? I will take you back to Jiangzhou now. Just ask your father and you will know."
