Situ Jing took Lu Jingzhi's arm. "That's right. I even took the initiative to let them stay in the Lu residence for the night, so ??" Situ Jing raised her head, and looked at Lu Jingzhi with a questioning gaze. Tomorrow, the Lu residence may not have any guest rooms, so I can only... They are living in the same room! "
Lu Jingzhi laughed, "I thought it was some big matter, you can arrange it!"
"Yes." Situ Jing happily rested her head on Lu Jingzhi's shoulder.
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, the next day arrived.
Since today was Situ Jing's birthday, the entire Lu residence was already bustling with activity early in the morning. Even the butler was too busy today to ask Ji Sixi questions, he only brought the breakfast into Ji Sixi's bedroom.
Ji Sixi would naturally not leave her room. After all, everyone outside was here today, and if someone were to recognize her, not only would her identity be revealed to Dark Angel, it would also place Lu Jingzhi and Situ Jing in an awkward situation. Thus, Ji Sixi had decided to not step out of his room for the entire day, until nightfall.
When Situ Jing brought Qin Housheng back, she would immediately leave with him.
However, she was a little worried about Shen Xiaoran's situation, because she hadn't received any message from Shen Xiaoran yet.
Just as she was sighing with worry, there was a sudden knock on her door.
This was not a knock on Lu Yixin's door, furthermore, Lu Yixin would usually call her, thus Ji Sixi was on guard and did not reply.
"It's me, Sixi."
In the next second, hearing Shen Xiaoran's voice, Ji Sixi immediately opened the door and was startled, "Boss Shen?"
Shen Xiaoran's face had a light smile, "Why are you so surprised to see me, and why are you blushing?"
Ji Sixi touched her face, and said snappily: "You're joking again!"
Shen Xiaoran smiled lightly, "Alright, I won't tease you ?? Can you invite me in? "
"Of course."
Ji Sixi opened the door and let Shen Xiaoran in.
Shen Xiaoran sat down on the sofa in his room and casually picked up a book that Ji Sixi had just flipped through, smiling as he said, "I saw that your book only stopped at the first page. It seems that you were reading without thinking, and were worried about your parents' situation right?"
Ji Sixi sat across Shen Xiaoran, and said seriously, "Quickly stop joking with me, how are my parents and Sen Senyuan?"
Shen Xiaoran closed the book and said calmly, "Don't worry about me!"
"Ji Sixi comforted her chest and completely heaved a sigh of relief. "Thank goodness."
Shen Xiaoran said in a serious tone, "But I don't really understand. Since you want to leave, why wait until tonight? You can leave now, I can cover for you."
"I'll tell you later. Tell me, where are you going to put my parents and Sen Senyuan?" Ji Sixi asked nervously.
Shen Xiaoran said calmly, "They are resting on a carriage not far from the Lu Residence. Don't worry, they are safe now."
"Alright, alright." Ji Sixi heaved a sigh of relief and leaned on the sofa.
Shen Xiaoran asked, "You still haven't answered my question, why don't you leave now, and wait until night before leaving?"
Ji Sixi hesitated for a few seconds, then said: "Because I made a deal with Situ Jing."
Shen Xiaoran immediately frowned, "You made a deal with this woman?"
Ji Sixi immediately explained everything to Shen Xiaoran, and after Shen Xiaoran finished listening, his face was covered in a layer of sinister shadow. You really have the guts to make a trade with Situ Jing. You should know that she is the 'foster father' of Satan's Tissue, and is a smart and sinister woman. You actually dare to believe in her! "
Ji Sixi said calmly, "Of course I know how shrewd she is, but I know that by agreeing to help me save Qin Housheng, she won't lie to me ??"
"Why?" Shen Xiaoran asked doubtfully.
Ji Sixi met Shen Xiaoran's gaze. Because Situ Jing loves Lu Jingzhi. "
Shen Xiaoran frowned, indicating that he did not understand.
Ji Sixi continued, "As both of us are women, I could tell that Situ Jing really loved Lu Jingzhi a lot ?? So, she helped me save Qin Housheng for her own sake. She was afraid that I would get entangled with Lu Jingzhi, so she wanted me to leave this place completely and never appear in front of Lu Jingzhi again. "
"If that's the case, then it's indeed possible for Situ Jing to save Qin Housheng for you." Shen Xiaoran said.
Ji Sixi nodded her head, "That's why I'm waiting for Situ Jing to make a move. And tonight, she's holding a birthday banquet in the Lu Residence, I think she might be covering for Qin Housheng just to save him."
"But you still have to be careful ??" Shen Xiaoran warned carefully, "This' foster father 'is not an ordinary person, you must be wary."
"Yes."
"My plane has been arranged. When you are all here, you can leave at any time."
Ji Sixi bit her lips lightly, not knowing how to express her gratitude towards Shen Xiaoran. In the end, she could only say this, "I don't know if I will have the chance to repay you in the future, but if I do have the chance, I'll treat you like I did in the past."
Shen Xiaoran laughed with satisfaction, "Don't go back on your words, I must eat this meal."
Ji Sixi smiled along with it, and felt herself relax instantly. That's right, your sudden appearance here would not arouse Lu Jingzhi's suspicions, right? "
"It just so happens that Situ Jing is holding a birthday banquet, so I came here in the name of congratulating Sister-in-law!" Shen Xiaoran replied.
Ji Sixi was slow for a second, then nodded: "That's good."
Shen Xiaoran slightly narrowed his eyes, his gaze locking onto Ji Sixi's currently somewhat u
atural little face. Why, when I call Situ Jing my sister-in-law, do you feel bad? "
Ji Sixi looked up. "You're thinking too much ??"
Shen Xiaoran smirked, "You talk tough."
Ji Sixi said faintly, "I am just thinking that after tonight, Lu Jingzhi and I will not meet again. I hope that he and Situ Jing can get along well for a hundred years. After all, he has experienced so much pain in the past."
"You're really kind, Sixi ?? But have you thought about it? Lu is not worth it for you to be so kind to him. " Shen Xiaoran said sullenly, "To be honest, if he really does love you, even if you are the child of his father and enemies, he should not use it and hurt you ??"
"Let's not talk about that anymore. It's all in the past now ??" Ji Sixi sorrowfully lowered her eyes. Continue to pretend as if nothing has happened and participate in this grand birthday banquet. When Qin Housheng appears, I will call you ?? "
Shen Xiaoran asked worriedly, "Your call ??"
"Don't worry, this was given to me by Satan. No one can track this phone's signal, including Satan himself." Ji Sixi replied.
"Only then did Shen Xiaoran relax. Okay, then I'll go downstairs and greet Lu and Situ Jing, and help you take a look at Situ Jing's movements. "
"Alright."
When Shen Xiaoran arrived at the first floor, it was already full of wine and sweet smelling clothes.
Shen Xiaoran who was always in the midst of all these women walked straight towards Situ Jing.
Situ Jing was dressed in elegant and luxurious clothing, and was entertaining the guests in a hostess' ma
er. When she saw Shen Xiaoran, her red lips bloomed into a smile. Shen, you're here. "
"It's sister-in-law's birthday banquet, how could I be absent ??" Shen Xiaoran said.
Situ Jing took a glass of champagne from the servant and handed it over to Shen Xiaoran. Then have a drink with me... It's rare to see you not among the women. "
Shen Xiaoran smiled lightly, "Alright."
After drinking the champagne, Situ Jing complained in a small voice, "Lu Li still hasn't come, it's so hard for me to die. Now all the guests are asking me where he is ??"
"Lu should be preparing a birthday surprise for you ??" Otherwise he wouldn't be late. " Shen Xiaoran comforted her.
"Your mouth is just sweet ?? How would he prepare a birthday present for me? We've been together for so long, and he hasn't even given me a present! " Situ Jing complained in a small voice.
"Look, isn't this how Lu Li came?" Shen Xiaoran looked at the door.
"Is that so?" Situ Jing looked over happily.
They just saw Lu Jingzhi wearing a tailored black suit, looking even more cold and handsome than usual, ignoring all the guests, and walking straight towards Situ Jing.
Situ Jing could feel that the gazes of all the guests in the Lu residence hall were focused on her and Lu Jingzhi. This feeling of being the center of attention made her feel extremely vain.
Shen Xiaoran felt that it was boring, so he sat down on the side, waiting to see when Situ Jing would save Qin Housheng.
Shen Xiaoran was very clear that Lu Jingzhi had to send people to watch over him, and if Situ Jing wanted to save Qin Housheng, she had to do it herself.
Not only would the news not leak out, Qin Housheng could also successfully save Qin Housheng. However, after Shen Xiaoran observed for a long time, he realized that Situ Jing did not have any intention of leaving the banquet.
After all, in order to save Qin Housheng, one must use a spear. If you were to drink wine, even if you are conscious, and your spear is unstable, how can you guarantee that Qin Housheng will be saved? Furthermore, how can I let Situ Jing go?
In addition, Shen Xiaoran also observed a small detail. When they were having socializing with each other, there were several times when Situ Jing pretended to not be able to drink enough wine and passed Lu Jingzhi the wine to drink on behalf of him. However, this wine seemed to have always been taken from the same waiter ??
Usually, when they were drinking in place, they would take whoever's wine that was sent over, but Situ Jing had always only taken one servant's wine.
Shen Xiaoran suddenly felt that there was a problem, but he could not pinpoint what it was.
Until ??
Shen Xiaoran realized that Lu Jingzhi seemed to be drunk, and his forehead started to perspire slightly.
Shen Xiaoran was a person who often rolled around in colourful situations. He was very clear about Lu Jingzhi's situation, it was kind of like being drugged, and Lu Jingzhi had always had a good alcohol tolerance.
Shen Xiaoran sensed that something was amiss, he was prepared to go up and check on Lu Jingzhi's situation, and also wanted to check if Situ Jing had any intentions of leaving. Unexpectedly, when he walked towards them, he saw that Lu Jingzhi was already carrying the drunk Situ Jing to the second floor.
In that instant, Shen Xiaoran instantly understood that Situ Jing had ulterior motives, and she also did not have the intention of saving Qin Housheng.
Shen Xiaoran did not want to care about the matters between Situ Jing and himself. He followed along the stairs on the right up to the second floor and prepared to explain to Ji Sixi the situation.
Unexpectedly, when he went to's room and knocked on the door, Ji Sixi did not respond.
Shen Xiaoran was worried that something would happen to Ji Sixi, so he kicked the door open.
In the next second, she saw Ji Sixi lying on the bed with a blanket covering him, looking as if she was sleeping soundly.
Shen Xiaoran was terrified, he immediately rushed over, originally wanted to check if anything was wrong with Ji Sixi, but he did not expect that when he lightly patted Ji Sixi's face to call for her, he discovered that her arms were bare, as though she was not wearing any clothes on her body.
