Jiang Baishen nodded, indicating that he understood.

So he carried his sister and walked around him and went out.

Zeng Yichen looked at his back, thinking about the "Xiao Leng" he just mentioned. Suddenly he remembered that they had known each other since childhood, so it should be a nickname exclusive to them, right?

Thinking of this, Zeng Yichen's irritable heart was filled with a hint of jealousy, making him even more annoyed!

When Jiang Baishen and Jiang Manxi got on the shuttle bus to the Zeng family mansion and drove out of the gate, Jiang Manxi finally couldn't help it. She turned her head and looked at Jiang Baishen eagerly:

"Brother~"

Jiang Baishen heard the voice and turned around to reply gently: "What's wrong, Manman? Are you still feeling uncomfortable?"

Jiang Manxi shook her head and asked nervously, "Ji Ran... is she Sister Xiao Leng?"

Jiang Baishen raised the corner of his mouth and nodded: "Yes."

Although she already knew the answer, Jiang Manxi was still shocked when she heard her brother's confirmation.

...It turns out that the fairy heroine Ji Ran who appeared like a ray of light to save her is her favorite sister Xiao Leng!

Grass! !

So what did she say to her little sister Xiao Leng last time??!

She said Ji Ran was uneducated.

How could she say such things to a poor child like Xiao Leng who has no parents?

Jiang Baishen saw her face turn even paler, and he became extremely worried:

"Manman! What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

Jiang Manxi's whole body was broken, and she shook her head with despair:

"Brother...I really deserve to die..."

Jiang Baishen was stunned for a moment, then chuckled and said, "Silly girl, what are you talking about?"

……

That night.

Yuanshi, a century-old enterprise, was suddenly exposed to have suffered an unknown financial attack. The entire enterprise's market value evaporated in an instant, and it was directly saddled with hundreds of billions of debts and went bankrupt.

There are also rumors that the young master of the Yuan family suddenly went crazy.

Everyone knows that this situation must have offended the bigwigs in the circle.

Moreover, in the entire Jinghua City, there are only two top bosses who can crush an upper-class family like the Yuan family.

Everyone remained silent.

The next morning.

When Chi Tao woke up, she saw more than eighty missed calls on her phone. She was so scared that she immediately jumped out of bed.

When I opened it, I saw that they were all typed by Zeng Ershao.

Damn! Did something happen to Professor Ji when he went to his birthday party yesterday?

Thinking of this, Chi Tao immediately replied to him.

Soon the call was connected, and Chi Tao immediately shouted into the phone:

"Hey! Master Zeng! What happened?!"

Zeng Yichen, who had not slept all night, immediately responded anxiously: "Teacher Chi, did baby Ji contact you?!"

"How could she...wait a minute." Chi Tao said halfway when she suddenly looked at her phone and started searching. Maybe the record of Professor Ji looking for her was on it?

After searching for a long time, I finally confirmed that it was not there.

She raised the phone to her ear again and said anxiously, "No, what happened to Professor Ji? Why did you lose contact?"

"I..." Zeng Yichen wanted to explain, but the words were stuck in his throat.

How could he confess all the excessive things he had done to her?

"Say it!!!" Chi Tao was so anxious that he pulled his hair violently.

Zeng Yichen was stunned for a moment, and had to tell Chi Tao everything.

Including how Ji Baobei was framed and wronged, how he was accused as a thief by everyone, how he was pushed into the river by him, and how he left sadly alone in the end.

After listening to the whole thing, Chi Tao's face turned red with anger and she couldn't utter a word.

Zeng Yichen was still anxiously asking Chi Tao for help:

"...Teacher Chi, please help me find Ji baby! See if she has returned to the institute safely. She didn't ride a bike yesterday. I don't know how she left in the middle of the night. I'm worried to death."

"Then you'll die soon!"

Chi Tao roared angrily, threw away his phone and jumped off the bed, quickly washed his face and brushed his teeth, put on a coat without changing his shoes, grabbed the car keys and ran out the door, hurriedly heading towards the school.

At this time, Ji Ran opened his eyes drowsily.

I saw the familiar retro light bulb above my head and realized that I was at home.

She struggled to stand up and raised her hand to her forehead.

"Shit... my head hurts." Ji Ran blurted out and wiped his face in a daze.

After a while, her mind gradually began to return to normal, and yesterday's memories suddenly began to flood into her mind and play, finally stopping at the scene when she just returned to the house.

Her head shot up.

That's not right. She seemed to have a sudden fever yesterday, and then she seemed to have fainted in the yard...

Why are you in bed now?

Could it be that he came back sleepwalking?

Or... Qi Mu...

"Haha!" Ji Ran laughed at his own stupidity.

How could he bring her back when he obviously hated her so much? She would rather believe that she came back in her sleep.

Thinking about it, she raised her hand and touched her forehead again.

Hmm? The fever is actually gone.

She is in incredibly good shape now.

But speaking of dreams, she recalled the dream she had yesterday.

In the dream, he actually held her tightly in his arms, fed her medicine gently, and touched her face...

That cool touch seems too real, doesn’t it?

And maybe she wanted to know the answer too much? In her dream, she even asked Qi Muxiang whether he believed her.

But he said without hesitation that he believed her.

He also said that Qi Mu would always believe in Ji Ran unconditionally.

Thinking of this, the corners of her lips unconsciously rose again.

If only it were true...

"Hey……"

As expected, reality and dreams are opposites. The more ruthless the reality is, the more fascinating the dream is.

Ji Ran felt a little depressed and decided to get out of bed.

But when he turned his head, Ji Ran saw the extra water cup on the bedside.

She stared blankly at the real water cup, her mind suddenly hit hard by a series of spreading waves.

Because the nanny said that the bed is for sleeping, and if it is dirty with food and drink, it will attract cockroaches, ants, spiders, mice, and caterpillars to sleep with her...

So she had never eaten or drunk anything in bed in her life, including water.

Then where did this cup come from?

Suddenly I remembered that in my dream yesterday, Qi Mu used water to feed her medicine...

Isn't it a dream?

Did he really give her medicine?

It couldn't be that she poured the water herself while sleepwalking, because even a sleepwalker would not do anything outside of their usual habits.

Besides, how could a fever that caused one to faint suddenly go away on its own?

and so……

The Qi Mu who hugged her tightly, the Qi Mu who was extremely gentle and considerate, the Qi Mu who firmly told her that he believed in her.

Is it true...?

My heart suddenly started beating violently.
