When she returned to the apartment, his parents could tell that something was amiss, but they were worried that Ji Sixi had been acting as if nothing had happened.
However, when her mother once again asked her not to buy a villa in Hantian, she didn't insist ??
When she returned to her room, she looked at the expensive pink pear-shaped diamond ring on her finger and fell into a daze.
Could fake feelings really be sincere like this?
Ji Sixi's thoughts were pulled back to reality only when her phone rang.
The phone's screen displayed Lu Jingzhi's number, causing Ji Sixi to hesitate for a long time. In the end, she still pressed the answer button.
"Hubby ??" Her tone was relaxed, as if nothing had happened.
"I'm sorry, I was busy all day today. How is father-in-law?" Lu Jingzhi asked.
"Dad's condition is good. As long as I take good care of myself at home, I will be able to stand up very quickly." Ji Sixi replied truthfully.
"That's good."
"I already told you not to worry ??"
"Mm ??" When are you coming back? "
Ji Sixi chuckled, "What, do you really miss me that much?"
Lu Jingzhi lowered his voice, "Old wife, this question is very serious."
"Well, I'm not joking with you, I mean it... Haven't we discussed this before? I said that I wanted to stay in C City for a few more days, and I wanted to spend some time with my parents. Didn't you promise me? " Ji Sixi said in a spoiled ma
er.
Lu Jingzhi was silent for a few seconds, then slowly said, "I've already reneged on my promise!"
"..." For a dignified President of the LJ and Dark Angel Boss, you actually dare to go back on your words and do such a thing? " Ji Sixi intentionally teased.
"I don't mind breaking my promise." Lu Jingzhi replied.
Honestly speaking, if not for the fact that she had just met Shen Xiaoran, she would definitely be very happy at this moment. "However, I will only spend less and less time by my parents' side. This time, I really want to stay with them for a little longer ??" she insisted.
Lu Jingzhi became overbearing, "Alright, then I will fly to C City tomorrow."
"You don't even have the time to take care of your own affairs. Don't tire yourself so much ??" Ji Sixi anxiously tried to persuade her.
Lu Jingzhi said calmly, "I can endure the fatigue, but I can't do it without you."
The further Shen Xiaoran told her to stay away from Lu Jingzhi, the better. Did this mean that she couldn't let Lu Jingzhi come to C City?
"Bye, then I'll be back in two days. Don't come, I really don't want you to be so tired ??" Ji Sixi chose to delay.
"In two days?" Lu Jingzhi was skeptical.
Ji Sixi muttered, "Boss Lu, have I ever lied to you before?"
Lu Jingzhi did not speak.
Ji Sixi coaxed, "Be good, if you're single for another two days, I promise that you'll be back in Berlin in two days ?? "However, I don't know if my parents will say in their hearts that I have no conscience if I return so quickly."
"Okay, two days, no more." Lu Jingzhi requested without room for negotiation.
"Got it, I will listen to you obediently." Ji Sixi kissed him on the phone.
It was only then that Lu Jingzhi was satisfied, and said in the end, "Then, when you come back, I'll go to the airport to pick you up."
"Alright."
The call ended.
In that moment, the smile on Ji Sixi's face disappeared.
She looked at the tall buildings outside the window, and her eyes gradually became dull.
Did he really not love her?
Was he really lying to her?
At the same time, in Berlin.
Lu Jingzhi stood in front of the window in his office and observed the night in Berlin. Suddenly, he picked up his phone and dialed a number.
Not long after, the call co
ected.
Lu Jingzhi said indifferently, "You still want to interfere?"
The moment he flew to C City to look for Ji Sixi, Shen Xiaoran was already prepared to be held accountable by him.
Because he knew very well that there was nothing that could be deceived by Lu Jingzhi.
It was just that he didn't expect it to happen so quickly ??
He guessed that Lu Jingzhi must have just been on the phone with Ji Sixi, and Lu Jingzhi could already feel the change in Ji Sixi.
Although Ji Sixi hid it well, she was still unable to fool Lu Jingzhi.
As a result, Shen Xiaoran did not refute his and calmly replied, "You know that I have always treated women with mercy, and Ji Sixi is a good girl."
Lu Jingzhi replied indifferently, "You can treat any woman with mercy. Only she, you can't."
"Tell me, why are you treating Sixi like this?" Shen Xiaoran couldn't help but ask in frustration.
"You don't need to know." Lu Jingzhi's voice became even colder.
Shen Xiaoran said fearlessly, "Then now that I have already interfered with this matter, do you want me to not even be your friends anymore?"
Actually, this rhetorical question was meaningless, because with his understanding of Lu Jingzhi, this could very well be the result.
As expected ??
Lu Jingzhi said coldly, "If you intervene again, I will take your life!"
"Then let me tell you as well. If you love Sixi but don't care about your own feelings to hurt her, in the end, the person who's suffering is you." Shen Xiaoran replied with a voice that had no temperature.
Lu Jingzhi had already ended the call.
He took the phone from his ear. There was no expression on his face.
How could he not know about the change that Ji Sixi had gone through on the phone just now?
Perhaps even she didn't realize that when she had spoken to him earlier, her voice had concealed a trace of fear, so much so that even when she had used a relaxed tone to speak, her voice had quivered slightly ??
This was a supernatural ability that came from experience. No one could lie in front of him ??
She was afraid ??
It seemed that Shen Xiaoran's words had still touched her.
However, no matter what Shen Xiaoran said to her, he believed that she would definitely return to Berlin.
After thinking about it, Lu Jingzhi's phone once again rang.
Lu Jingzhi's cold eyes swept across the phone screen, and immediately pressed down on the raise button. "Speak."
The other party was Situ Jing, and it seemed like she was already used to Lu Jingzhi's tepid exchange. I have done what you told me to do, but Ji Sixi doesn't seem to be in Berlin? "
"You sure are fast."
"Of course, I still need some time to live. After all, the other three people from Dark Angel have probably already set their sights on me ??"
"She'll be back in Berlin in two days."
"Are you sure?"
Lu Jingzhi did not hesitate, "I'm sure."
"Alright, I will continue to act according to your plan. It's just that if Ji Sixi doesn't appear in Berlin two days later, I probably won't be able to continue waiting for you to re-plan. I have to leave ?? I believe that you, Boss Lu, will not go back on your words, because I have already helped you accomplish what you wanted me to do. " Situ Jing said in a serious tone.
"Take care of what I want you to do. In two days, you will leave with your younger brother!" Lu Jingzhi promised.
"Don't worry, I will handle it thoroughly." Situ Jing promised.
Tonight, Ji Sixi tossed and turned, unable to sleep.
Because the moment she closed her eyes, all she could hear was what Shen Xiaoran had told her ??
She really wanted to pretend that she had never seen Shen Xiaoran before, but she knew in the bottom of her heart that she was only doing this to avoid him.
