"..."

Speaking of this, he was actually quite interested. Back then, he would pester Xu Xushuli every day, wishing he could be with her 24 hours a day.

"Stop being so glib, don't talk so much."

Xu Shuli remained relatively clear-headed, her demeanor gentle and composed as she slowly and methodically analyzed, "Have someone investigate Jiang Wenqian, Jiang Wenxi, their family, and the relationship between my master..."

"Ok?"

"Forget it, don't get involved in this matter. I'll have someone make arrangements."

Xu Shuli thought about it and still felt something was wrong, so she took back what she had just said.

"Are you suspecting that something is wrong with Jiang Wenqian?"

She looked up and met Luo Yunqi's half-smiling eyes. His eyes were beautiful, naturally giving people a tender look, and at this moment he was gazing at her gently, making Xu Shuli's heart soften.

"It all happened so conveniently. How could they have suddenly appeared? They arrived as soon as I arrived today? My teacher once reminded me that they might not come even once every ten or eight years. How come they appeared so conveniently this time?"

Hearing her say that, Luo Yunqi also became somewhat serious, as if something was not quite right, as if someone had been watching their every move, and they were the prey being played in someone's hands.

"Don't worry, leave this to me. I'll have someone investigate."

Luo Yunqi raised an eyebrow, his tone as cold as iron, "If I really find out that they came with a purpose, I will definitely not let them off easily."

He had a rough idea in his mind; perhaps it was someone else secretly plotting this.

"Yaoyao, there's something I need to tell you."

Luo Yunqi had to tell her about that incident and that person so that she would be more cautious and pay more attention to the things happening around her.

"You said."

He reached out and knocked on the partition, and Fang Ming lowered it.

“Return to Mingyue Xiaozhu.”

"Yes, CEO."

"Didn't you give me your Bright Moon Pavilion?" Xu Shuli looked at his indifferent, even amused expression and suddenly realized that he had another set of Bright Moon Pavilions.

"..."

What has he accomplished over the years? The power behind him is beyond imagination.

"If Brother Lin Ran finds out about this, he'll be furious."

"Then please don't let Lin Ran know about my sweetheart, and keep it a secret for me, okay?"

"..."

Fang Ming, sitting in the front row, bristled.

Where's the partition?! Where's the partition?! Raise it up! Raise it up! Separate these two from each other's tender moments.

If Lin Ran is a human being, then he is not, right?

……

……

A BMW slowly came to a stop at the entrance of the Kyoto Police Department.

Ji Chen looked troubled. He hadn't expected Xu Shuli to be so heartless as to not answer his calls, nor had he expected his parents' attitude to be so resolute.

For the first time, he realized that his status as the young master of the Ji family was so dispensable. No one would give him face; the only reason they would give him face was because of the Xu family.

He recalled that five minutes earlier, someone from the police station had called him saying that Song Yuanyuan wanted to see him, and he was still hesitant and didn't know what to do.

The events that unfolded in the auditorium completely changed Ji Chen's perception of Song Yuanyuan. He had always thought of her as a simple and kind girl, but he never imagined that she had done so many things in private.

But he genuinely liked Song Yuanyuan. He didn't deny that Song Yuanyuan had made mistakes, but she had done so many things for his own good, and she liked him too. Since that was the case, he couldn't just sit idly by.

With that thought in mind, he resolutely stepped inside. The staff sitting in front of him asked him what he was there for, and it wasn't until the police officers inside came out that they led him inside.

"You have 15 minutes to chat."

"Thank you."

Ji Chen dared not look at their expressions. In fact, they were not that gossipy; they simply led the person inside and then stood guard outside.

"Ah Chen, Ah Chen, you've finally come to see me! Please take me out of here quickly, it's terrifying! Ah Chen, please, I can't have a criminal record. If I have one, my life will be ruined."

Seeing him come in was like seeing a savior for Song Yuanyuan. After this incident, her reputation at school would definitely not be good, but if she lost Ji Chen as well, her life would be ruined.

She had to keep Ji Chen firmly under her control.

“Ah Chen, those things weren’t my intention. It was my sister who did them. She forced me. You know what my status is in this family. I have absolutely no say. If I don’t do what she says, and she says a few bad things to my dad, I won’t be able to study at Kyoto University anymore. Then I won’t be able to see you anymore.”

"Ah Chen, I can't lose you..."

Song Yuanyuan spoke with heartfelt sincerity, her face streaked with tears. She knew perfectly well which of her expressions and actions would evoke the most heartache and pity. At this moment, she looked at him with teary eyes, as if Ji Chen was the only person left in her world.

Sure enough, upon hearing her say that, and recalling how her family looked down on her, Ji Chen softened. He said that his Yuanyuan could never be such a vicious person; she had always been the most innocent and naive.

"Yuanyuan, don't be afraid, don't worry. I will definitely find a way to get you out of here. Don't worry, I won't let you have any criminal record. You will definitely be able to leave here in a bright and beautiful way."

Separated by a railing, Ji Chen reached out and took her hand, his fingers icy cold, and assured her.

"Don't worry, just wait for me a little longer, I will definitely get you out of here."

"Yeah, Ah Chen, you're all I have now. If even you don't care about me, I really don't know what to do."

Song Yuanyuan's heart softened for a moment. Fortunately... fortunately, Ji Chen was still as easy to talk to as ever. As long as she shed a few tears, he would eagerly come over to her.

“Ah Chen, I knew you would appear before me like a hero and rescue me from this predicament. I really can’t believe that if I lose you too, what else can I say? I might as well just kill myself in this police station.”

The two policemen guarding outside suddenly sneezed, attributing it to the strong wind at night, which made them catch a chill.

"Don't talk nonsense. I will definitely get you out of here. Don't worry."

Ji Chen felt extremely distressed and quickly refuted her words while trying his best to comfort her.

His success today is partly due to his father's hard work and partly due to the Xu family's connections. But how can he take Song Yuanyuan out on his own now? This is a question he hasn't thought about.

"I believe you, Ah Chen."

At this moment, she had no choice but to trust Ji Chen.

When it was time for the visit, the police outside unceremoniously led the person out, saying, "Next time you're looking for someone, be careful not to blindly go around asking questions."

One of the slightly younger policemen kindly reminded him, while the other simply patted him on the shoulder.

"What does this have to do with you? Do your job and stop talking so much."

Ji Chen "..."

He was still somewhat unwilling to give up, so he took out his phone again to call Xu Shuli, but he couldn't get through, perhaps because she had blocked his number.
