Chapter 68 Confrontation

Ji Yao woke up from the sofa and was a little horrified to find that this was not her own room.

Oh no, oh no, could it be that she drank too much last night and accidentally did something she shouldn’t have done?
He quickly lifted the blanket and got off the sofa. Just as he was about to leave, Wen Ruoci came out of the bathroom. Seeing that Ji Yao had woken up, Wen Ruoci twitched her lips and said, "You're awake."

When she saw Wen Ruoci, Ji Yao suddenly realized that she had been drinking with Wen Ruoci yesterday and she breathed a sigh of relief.

It's just that once she gets drunk, she will lose her memory. At this moment, she can't remember anything. She looks at Wen Ruoci a little embarrassedly.
"Um, did I do anything strange or say anything strange last night?"

Wen Ruoci lowered her eyes, perhaps because she had just woken up, her voice was a little hoarse, "Yesterday you said a lot about Brother Yan."

Ji Yao, "..."

She looked at Wen Ruoci in disbelief, "Did I really say a lot about Brother Yan?"

Wen Ruoci nodded.

As Ji Yao's pupils contracted violently, she asked, "The brother Yan you mentioned, could it be the current movie star Lin Yan?"

Ji Yao, "..."

She laughed a few times a little awkwardly, "Haha, I thought I had forgotten about him, how could I call out his name when I was drunk."

Wen Ruoci, "What you think you have forgotten is actually just self-deception. That memory has always existed, hidden in those dark corners that never see the sun. Once it is exposed to the wind, it will grow wildly. By that time, no one can suppress it..."

Ji Yao was stunned, "How do you know so clearly?"

Wen Ruoci smiled gently, but it was full of bitterness, "Because this is how I got here..."

She wanted to stay in the Wen family and be the eldest daughter of the Wen family.

Initially, she had no intention of seeking revenge against Tang Ning and Mu Tian En, nor did she want to acquire Yun Ding Group.

She has adoptive parents who love her, and a younger brother who obeys her in everything. She sometimes wonders that all her previous deficiencies have been fulfilled, so what else is there to be dissatisfied with?

But the fact is that the more she tried to forget, the more she couldn't let it go...

Ji Yao stared at Wen Ruoci in a daze, "You..."

She felt more than once that Wen Ruoci's whole body exuded a sense of sadness.

Although she had never asked, she could feel that Wen Ruoci's past must be beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

She bit her lip and asked, "What if it was you? What would you do?"

Wen Ruoci, "If it were me, I would definitely stand taller than him and be richer than him, so that he would have to look up to me all his life..."

Ji Yao burst out laughing. "How could it be so easy? He is now a popular movie star, and he has the support of that rich lady. It is said that the rich lady has a political background. How can I stand higher than him and have more money than him? I can't kill him to avenge him, because then I will also go to jail, which is too much of a loss."

She hated Lin Yan, but she didn't hate him enough to sacrifice her own life.

Wen Ruoci said slowly, "If you are willing, there is actually a way."

Ji Yao felt that she must have been bewitched by Wen Ruoci. She saw Wen Ruoci make two phone calls and then really followed her.

Because of the Chinese New Year, many restaurants have closed.

Finally, I chose a high-end Japanese restaurant and sat there waiting for someone.

As per the custom in previous years, Xiao Nanxin needed to go to the Quan family to pay New Year's greetings. However, after arriving at the Quan family, she heard that Quan Shijin was injured the night before and it caused quite a big commotion, so that the Quan family was in no mood to invite anyone from the Xiao family today.

Xiao Nanxin was worried about Quan Shijin's health, so she went to the hospital with Xiao Fengcheng.

Quan Shijin was not seriously injured, he just lost too much blood and looked a little too pale.

Xiao Nanxin looked at him with eyes full of worry, but more of confusion, "Brother Shijin, who is so bold as to attack you in the Quan family's old house..."

"Brother Shijin, you stabbed yourself." Bai Yu spoke so quickly that Song Chao had no time to stop him and could only give up.

I pinched my eyebrows with a slight headache.

Xiao Nanxin was stunned for a moment, "Why?"

Bai Yu scratched his head, "I heard that it was because the old lady fed Shi Jin something and locked Yi Youwei in a room."

In fact, he still hasn't figured out what the inevitable connection is.

Xiao Nanxin, "..."

She had heard vaguely that the Quan family hoped that Brother Shijin and Yi Youwei would marry each other, but she didn't expect that such a low-class method would appear.

She thought the means of forcing marriage would be more sophisticated...

At this time, she received a call from Wen Ruoci, saying that she wanted to meet her. She glanced at Quan Shijin who was still lying on the hospital bed, and immediately agreed with a smile.

"Okay."

After hanging up the phone, he said to Quan Shijin with a smile,
"Brother Shijin, my friend has an appointment with me, so I'm leaving first. You should have a good rest."

Quan Shijin simply said "hmm".

Song Chao said he would take her there, but she said proudly, "No, there will be a driver to take me there."

Song Chao said calmly, "If you don't want me to do something like robbing someone, stealing jade and stealing fragrance, you'd better behave yourself."

Xiao Nanxin grumbled in dissatisfaction, "Why are you so overbearing? I'm not your fiancée now. Can't I leave alone if I want? You're not as good as Xie Yu. At least he won't go against me."

Song Chao keenly heard a name and frowned, "Who is Xie Yu?"

Xiao Nanxin suddenly realized that he seemed to have said something wrong and quickly covered his mouth.

"Nothing, I don't want you to send me off anyway."

Song Chao looked at her with a half-smile, "You don't want me to send you off, could it be that the person you have an appointment with is the one named Xie Yu?"

"certainly not."

Perhaps he was tired of talking to Song Chao, so he pulled Xiao Fengcheng's sleeve and said, "Brother, look at him..."

Xiao Fengcheng comforted her, "Okay, you have a free driver, why are you so angry? If he wants to give you a ride, just let him do it."

Xiao Nanxin became even angrier, "Brother, even you won't help me."

Song Chao made a gesture of invitation, "Please come in, my eldest lady..."

Xiao Nanxin stomped her feet in anger, snorted, and ignored Song Chao.

At worst, she could just treat Song Chao as her driver.

While in the car, Song Chao asked her, "Where are you going?"

She gave an address.

After arriving at the high-end Japanese restaurant, Xiao Nanxin unbuckled her seat belt and got out of the car without waiting for Song Chao to open the door for her.

Song Chao paused for a while, then got off the car and followed.

He wanted to know who the person Xiao Nanxin was so eager to meet was.

As a result, he saw Xiao Nanxin walking towards Wen Ruoci's table.

There was a moment of silence.
