“I’ve never stayed in such a high-class ward, how would I know? Take care of yourself. I’m going back home.” Du Jiuyuan’s mind was filled with the doctor’s words, but she knew that she could not afford to be soft-hearted.
When it comes to a man like Ji Jingchen, the heartache would sink in, and the same thing would happen again.
“Will you come back tonight?” Ji Jingchen might have to stay a few more days this time, so the wedding would be postponed again.
His stomach was bleeding profusely, so the doctor lectured him strictly.
“Not sure. It will depend on my mood!” Du Jiuyuan did not dare to look at him again and left the ward resolutely.
“Ji Jingchen, I don’t dare to love you anymore.”
Ji Jingchen looked at Du Jiuyuan’s back. He had a myriad of thoughts in his mind. He was like an abandoned rag doll, and his entire temperament became different.
…
Du Jiuyuan did not come to visit Ji Jingchen anymore after that. She kept herself shut in the apartment for a few days.
During this time, Jiang Cheng drove the eye-catching red Maybach downstairs, left the keys behind, and left.
The bodyguards seemed to have disappeared as well. When Du Jiuyuan opened the window, she did not see their figures again.
Days passed peacefully like this for a week. Under Du Ling’s nagging, Du Jiuyuan took the car keys and left the apartment.
The red Maybach was very eye-catching, but it was covered in dust. Du Jiuyuan wanted to wash the car and return it.
Suddenly, she noticed a black Rolls-Royce parked three steps away from her.
Ji Jingchen was wearing a black suit and sitting in the car. He was holding some paper documents in his hands. It seemed like he was dealing with some official business.
The driver was not Jiang Cheng, but Ji Jingchen’s other special assistant, Peter.
Peter was an American, and he was meticulous in his work. No one could order him around except for Ji Jingchen.
Peter got out of the car and said respectfully, “Hello, Madam!”
Ji Jingchen put down the document and was a little angry when he saw Du Jiuyuan’s outfit.
“Do you usually go out dressed like this?” Ji Jingchen’s voice was very low, and he used a strict tone.
Du Jiuyuan looked at the sexy dress that she wore with her gloves. It was so long that it reached her thighs, and the top half of her body was even more exaggerated. Her perfect body curve towered over her, making her look extremely attractive.
“What I wear is my business. Since you’re here, I don’t have to make the trip to your place anymore. I’ll just give you the car keys,” Du Jiuyuan said. In truth, she had only absent-mindedly chosen this piece of clothing.
She usually liked this type of clothing, but she had not worn it much because Ji Jingchen didn’t like it.
How a woman dressed should be based on her own desires and liking. Why should one care about what other people thought?
Peter glanced at Du Jiuyuan from the corner of his eyes. This piece of clothing had brought out the best of her figure.
“Go up and change your clothes. Then follow me home.” Ji Jingchen seemed to have returned to his previous overbearing and unreasonable attitude.
“I’m not going back!” Du Jiuyuan refused without thinking.
“Grandmother is back.” Ji Jingchen paused and resisted the urge to carry her up and change her clothes.
Du Jiuyuan did not hesitate for long. She stood where she was and said indifferently, “Okay.”
If there was anything in the Ji family that she could not let go of, it was Grandmother Ji.
Back then, it was Grandmother Ji who had personally brought Du Jiuyuan to Hong Kong city. Regardless of anyone’s objections, she had brought her into the Ji family and taken care of her thoughtfully.
No matter how much the five years of marriage had hurt her, she would never forget how good Grandmother Ji was to her.
…
As the old lady had returned, the atmosphere in the Ji family was very warm. The servants worked even harder. Du Jiuyuan followed Ji Jingchen upstairs and walked to Grandmother Ji’s room.
The door was ajar, and Madam Ji’s voice came from inside. “Mom, I asked the kitchen to prepare your favorite glutinous rice balls for you. You have to eat more later.”
“Thank you.” Despite Grandmother Ji’s indifferent tone, Madam Ji’s face radiated warmth.
Ji Jingchen pulled Du Jiuyuan into the room, and there was a hint of reverence in his tone. “Grandmother, I’m here.”
Grandmother Ji, who had been feeling a little sleepy, was immediately energized when she heard this.
She treated Du Jiuyuan sincerely, and Grandmother Ji really liked her.
“Yuanyuan is here! Come to grandmother quickly.” Old Madam Ji was obviously very warm toward Du Jiuyuan.
Du Jiuyuan walked up and smiled obediently. “Grandmother, I missed you so much.” What she said was true. Although Du Jiuyuan would occasionally reminisce about the cold and lonely days in the Ji family, she would never forget how kindly Grandmother Ji treated her.
“Why are you so far away? Quick, come to Grandmother.” Grandmother Ji pulled Du Jiuyuan to her side and pushed Old Madam Ji away.
Although Madam Ji was angry, she did not dare to say anything. She stood up and did not leave.
Grandmother Ji held Du Jiuyuan’s hand and looked at her lovingly. “Yuanyuan, you seem to have lost weight. Did Ji Jingchen bully you? Grandmother will punish him for you.”
“No, Grandmother. It’s just that you haven’t seen me in a long time and you love me so very much.. That’s why you think I’ve lost weight,” Du Jiuyuan pursed her lips and said with a smile.
