Large patches of fiery sunset spread out across the sky, and the orange-yellow setting sun was cut by the shadows of the trees, swaying and falling in small pieces on the shoulders of the person who got off the bus.

His steps were a little unsteady, and he stumbled after only two steps. Qin Tian, ​​who was standing next to him, was startled and hurried over to help him.

But before he could touch him, Jiang Si waved his hand to stop him.

He stood there, pressing his chest and breathing lightly. When he raised his eyes and saw the brightly lit villa in front of him, his eyes, which had been as silent as dead water, suddenly surged with intense emotions.

He searched for seven days without sleep, screening her sketch over and over again in the portrait library of the Governor's Police Station.

But even if he could find someone extremely similar, he would be able to recognize it at a glance and it was not her.

At first he thought that she might not be found in the country, so he went abroad again without giving up, but after going to many places, he could not find any trace of her.

He became more and more anxious and uneasy, and the little bit of hope that was tightly held in his heart was crumbling.

He began to loathe himself again, even to hate himself.

Those delusions that were like a thorn in his flesh began to revel in his despair, bewitching, abusing, and speculating about his lover over and over again in his ears.

Jiang Si is almost going crazy.

He was on the verge of death, and at the last moment, Qin Tian, ​​who had just finished dealing with some business and rushed over, saw her sketch.

"what?"

He widened his eyes in surprise, "Isn't this Dong Xi?"

Jiang Si, whose eyebrows were deep in the shadows, showed a slight fluctuation. He opened his eyes, and his long bloodshot eyes were as sinister as a devil.

"No." He said hoarsely, "She is not!"

Qin Tian was frightened by his sudden rage, but looking at Jiang Si who was so anxious that he was about to collapse, he couldn't help but say more.

"This...this, sir, this sketch does look very similar to Dong Xi. Perhaps you can go back and ask her if she has any sisters or something like that."

"Dong Xi was born in a poor mountain village. They value boys more than girls, so there are many girls with illegal household registration. What if..."

Qin Tian did not continue talking. He also knew that what he said had many loopholes. With Jiang Si's ability, he must have already checked Dong Xi's family background thoroughly.

Considering Jiang Si’s current condition, if he doesn’t stop to recuperate, he will go crazy if he doesn’t die.

So he gritted his teeth, took out his cell phone and checked the surveillance footage in Nanshan Villa. Sure enough, he saw Qing Wan studying by the garden.

The little girl obviously likes flowers and plants, and she appears here at a fixed time every day.

But the garden had become an absolute forbidden area since it was completely planted with peonies, so she didn't dare get close to it. She just stayed far away, smelling the fragrance of the peonies and happily sitting on the chair swinging her legs.

Very likable and well-behaved.

Anyway, they look similar, and all Jiang Si saw was a dry photo. Maybe he would have a different feeling when he saw the real person.

So, with the mentality of trying everything possible, he put the phone directly in front of Jiang Si.

"You see, there is actually a big difference between Dong Xi's photo and the real person."

Jiang Si was already extremely annoyed, his brows were tightly furrowed, and the word "get out" that was on the tip of his tongue suddenly stopped before he could utter it.

He held his breath and stared at the surveillance camera in front of him. The bloodshot in his eyes disappeared in an instant.

"Tuanwan..."

Jiang Si's tears suddenly fell to the ground. He gasped heavily, and his fingertips trembled as if he was possessed and wanted to touch the girl inside.

It was the height of summer, and she was wearing a thin halter dress, with her hair braided into two pigtails hanging in front of her chest. She was holding an ice cube in one hand and a pen in the other, and was doing her homework seriously under the flower stand.

Her beautiful eyes and eyebrows are pure and charming, and her whole body has a clean and gentle temperament like a lily covered with dew.

It was very different from the charming and lazy little fox in his imagination.

But Jiang Si knew that this was his Wanwan, the baby he thought about day and night.

So he rushed back without stopping, but now standing here, the man who could make things happen with a wave of his hand was so nervous that his palms were sweating.

He checked his appearance again and again, making sure every detail was perfect before walking towards the villa.

This was the first time he saw Qing Wan in real life. She would not remember him, let alone know that a man had been fantasizing about her for more than three months.

Jiang Si tried his best to suppress the excitement that was about to rush to his scalp, and slowly pushed open the door of the villa——

"Mr. Jiang?" A sweet and gentle voice suddenly fell into Jiang Si's ears.

The graceful and noble curve of his lips gradually cooled down as he looked at Su Nuo, who was standing in front of the door wearing an apron and holding a peony, smiling with sparkling eyes.

"Welcome home."

She held up the bouquet of peonies, and although her posture was deliberately gentle, it was obvious from her every move that she regarded herself as the hostess.

The disguised calmness in Jiang Si's eyes began to crack, and the hostility hidden underneath was about to break through the restraints. Qin Tian, ​​who was a step behind, rushed up and pulled Su Nuo away.

"Sir, I'm sorry that I didn't tell you just now that Su Nuo is Miss Dong's friend. I let her stay here because I was worried that Miss Dong would be bored."

Qin Tian cleverly concealed Jiang Mosui's existence. After all, Jiang Si was on the verge of exploding and couldn't stand the slightest stimulation.

If he were told that his dream lover was his son's fiancée, he would really be able to shoot his so-called adopted son with a gun on the spot and then monopolize his future daughter-in-law.

Qin Tian sighed deeply in his heart, but his face remained serious.

Su Nuo next to him did not receive this dangerous information. Her eyes were almost glued to Jiang Si. When she heard Qin Tian mention her, she nodded rapidly and immediately listed her great achievements.

"Mr. Jiang, you must be exhausted from the journey. I made fish soup and some other dishes. Even the aunt in the kitchen praised them highly. Would you like to try them?"

"But speaking of which, Mr. Jiang, your house is really big. It's a bit difficult to clean. After all, it takes a lot of time to clean it inch by inch. But when you finish cleaning, you will feel a sense of accomplishment, right?"

Su Nuo kept talking and didn't stop even after Qin Tian glared at her several times. When she saw Jiang Si striding towards the dining room, the smile on her lips almost broke through her ears.

It turns out that Jiang Si likes this type of virtuous and capable wife.

She tugged at the teddy bear apron she had carefully selected, twisted her waist and followed Jiang Si. She was a little puzzled to see that he was obviously impatient but trying to pretend to be reserved.

Are you that hungry?

Just as this sudden thought occurred to him, Jiang Si in front of him suddenly stopped.

Su Nuo wanted to pretend that she didn't see it and just bump into him. After all, that muscular figure, with its strong and graceful broad shoulders and narrow waist, made people feel excited at the first sight.

But before the person got close, Jiang Si suddenly turned around.

His eyebrows were extremely cold, his surging anxiety was tinged with blood and hostility, and the glance he gave him was extremely cold.

"Where's Dong Xi?"
