The engagement banquet lasted until around eleven o'clock. By the time he returned, the streets were relatively cold.
Ji Sixi was a little tired, and wanted to lean on her, but she couldn't resist asking from the carriage, "Your performance tonight was really unexpected. I thought that when facing Su Mo, you would at least have something strange going on."
Even though he said that he would put Su Mo down from now on, he did not let go at the moment. To be able to do it so flatly, it was not easy ??
"Can't I put her down for a reason?" Lu Jingzhi asked indifferently.
At this moment, the light from the street lamp had just disappeared, and Lu Jingzhi's handsome face was hidden in a shadow. But when she was exposed to the light from the street lamp ahead, the deeper part of her was bright, and it was as if he was in another world from him for an instant.
"Do you think I would believe it?" Ji Sixi smiled, "How can it be so easy to let go of someone."
"Oh? It seems that you have a good understanding of emotions. " Lu Jingzhi turned his face to look at her, his long and narrow eyes revealing a deep light, he stopped for a moment and suddenly asked, "Isn't this the result that you hoped for?"
Ji Sixi followed Lu Jingzhi's gaze and looked over. There was already some mist outside, and a faint mist was surrounding a street lamp. The light that was emitted was hazy and dense.
It was beautiful now.
She liked this quiet beauty.
Thus, he looked at this scene and did not answer.
"I don't want to see you suffer." Lu Jingzhi did not look at Ji Sixi, but his tone was very serious.
"Are you serious?" Ji Sixi seemed to be a little surprised, "Is this the reason why you didn't have the slightest bit of abnormality against Su Mo tonight? You are controlling yourself for me? "
"You can think of it that way."
With how honest she was, Ji Sixi didn't know how to respond.
After a moment, she said, "If that's the case, I'm happy, and thank you very much. I'm not embarrassed at all tonight."
"You don't need to thank me." Lu Jingzhi suddenly turned, and placed his long fingers on her shoulders, forcing her to face him face to face.
"That's what I should do if I promise you I'll value you." Lu Jingzhi said, "In the future, you will know. I will fulfill all of my promises to you."
Lu Jingzhi looked at her clear and bright eyes that were just inches away from him. But he had never looked at them like this before.
Only now did he realize how beautiful her eyes were.
It was just like the brightest star in the starry sky, bright and resplendent.
He also clearly remembered that he had imprisoned her and refused to give her water, leaving her weak to the point where she was barely alive ??
At that time, he still didn't have the slightest bit of pity for her.
It was only when he investigated her in all aspects that he realized that he had always misunderstood her ??
Everything she had done in the past was for her parents, her family. She was a kind and filial girl.
He once thought that in this world, other than Su Mo, no one else would treat him sincerely. Even his little brother who once gave him a watch, would choose to protect himself in times of disaster. It was only now that he realized that this was not the case ??
Maybe nothing is absolute.
And she was his accident.
He had money, status, power, countless women who liked him, but she was the only one who had never begged for anything when he doted on her.
At that time, he had always thought that she was more scheming than most women. She knew how to please him ??
Only after investigating her information did he realize that this wasn't the case.
And tonight, when she took out the same watch that she had broken before, it proved even more that she was not scheming...
All the flattery he used to think of her as her true love or admiration for him,
Otherwise, this watch would be equivalent to the value of a Ji Residence, and she wouldn't be willing to spend the money to curry favor with him. More importantly, the watch had long since stopped being manufactured.
After all, he had asked his entire life to search for the same watch, but he couldn't find the same one. It could be seen how much effort and effort she had expended to find it ??
So it turned out that she was truly sincere towards him.
This made him even more determined to cherish her, make up for her, and treat her well in the days to come.
He didn't know if he could fall in love with her in the end, but at this moment, in his eyes, she was full of charm.
"Ji Sixi." Lu Jingzhi had never called out Ji Sixi's name in such a solemn ma
er before. His deep black eyes locked onto her, causing her gaze to be unable to escape. I'm sorry for my misunderstanding of you in the past, but I hope you believe me and I will make up for it in the future. "
The Skybridge was almost there, and the light from it lit up their faces and made them seem to be returning to the same world in an instant.
Ji Sixi slightly raised her chin.
She looked at the man closely, and for a moment she was still.
She didn't think that he would say such words, which was even more shocking than his indifference towards Su Mo during the engagement banquet.
Yes, he said he would make it up to her.
Such a cold and proud man had once pinched her cheek and made her hand over her child. Otherwise, no one would have thought such a day would come when they sent her to the purgatory in Africa ??
She felt that he had really changed a lot. She knew that there must be a reason for this change, and it was definitely not just because he finally understood her ??
But at this moment, she didn't want to investigate the reason behind his actions, because she was afraid that this was all just a dream. If she were to investigate further, this beautiful dream would break ??
If this was a dream, she would rather this dream continue...
After being absent-minded for a long time, she finally opened her mouth and said slowly with a calm expression, "I do not need your compensation. I only need in the future, if you can do what you say, put Su Mo down."
"I will." Lu Jingzhi promised calmly.
"But it's hard."
Lu Jingzhi slightly raised his brows, waiting for Ji Sixi to continue.
"But I will wait for you because I know that if you treat me seriously, you will put down Su Mo and fall in love with me."
"Alright."
"Of course, I hope you won't keep me waiting."
"At least, tonight, I do not have any Su Mo in my eyes." Lu Jingzhi released Ji Sixi's hand and held hers, preparing to get off the carriage.
As she opened the car door for them, Ji Sixi followed them out.
Just then, Lu Jingzhi's phone rang.
"Sorry, I'm on the phone." Lu Jingzhi said as he took out his phone from his suit pocket.
Ji Sixi laughed, "Please do."
Lu Jingzhi walked to the side and accepted the call with a solemn expression.
