40. You must be mentally prepared

Ji Yan hesitated, but still refused, "I'm sorry, I still have something to do today, can I do it another day?"

The next moment, I saw Gu Jingyang's face change slightly, but he quickly returned to normal, "I knew that you still refused to forgive me, I promised your father to take good care of you, but I still did these things to you." ”

She's been trying to figure out what happened five years ago lately.

I also went to visit the prison to learn about the situation from my father. Suddenly hearing Gu Jingyang mention his father, Ji Yan froze in place.

Apparently it was said to her on purpose.

"What do you know?"

Gu Jingyang asked rhetorically, "What do you mean?"

The expression on his face was determined, as if to tell her that he knew everything.

But if you really want her to ask, I don't know where to ask, "Why did my father find you back then?"

It was hard for her to understand why her father would suddenly entrust her to someone she had never met before. asked her to find a way to go to Yuncheng, and said with certainty that the Gu family would take care of her.

Just as she had a hard time understanding why she went to visit her and her father never saw her.

"Didn't your father tell you that the two of us were close friends?"

Ji Yan was surprised, it was true that he hadn't said it.

Gu Jingyang saw her thoughts, and smiled indifferently, "But also, the Gu family was still in that situation back then, and no one wanted to put the identity that had been washed away with it with sewage again." ”

Of course, she knew what the predecessor of the Gu family was, but she didn't expect her father to ...... with the Gu family But it's not strange to think about it, Ni Yue was also rescued by his father from those people, if he didn't have a little background, how could he do it just by relying on him as a small businessman.

Ji Song and Yu Shan started from scratch when Ji Yan was ten years old, the husband and wife gave full play to their own advantages, Yu Shan made a drawing and design in the master, Ji Song entertained in diplomacy, played a world in the garment industry, and even exported to foreign markets. When the wind was booming, Ji Song suddenly turned to real estate and almost suicidally invested all of Ji's funds in it.

The building, which had only been built with six floors, drained the company's funds, and the profitability of operating clothing was not as fast as the deficit. Later, the worker fell off the building and died, Ji Song was imprisoned for hurting people, and Yu Shan committed suicide after him.

The entire Ji clan was instantly held in the hands of Fu Rongxi.

These things were all found out and told to her by Ni Yue later. For as long as she can remember, her father never let her touch his work-related things. Even when she originally said that she wanted to learn from her mother, she would become a fashion designer in the future and help her father design more and better clothes, but he was rejected with righteous words.

Retracting his thoughts, he heard Gu Jingyang say, "There are so many questions you want to ask, it's not good for us to stand here and talk all the time, otherwise?"

When it came to eating again, Ji Yan didn't want to say no more, nodded, and walked out of the cafΓ© side by side with Gu Jingyang.

Gu Jingyang drove her to the city, and Ji Yan had a lot of thoughts flashing through his mind, and he didn't notice the calculation in Gu Jingyang's eyes for a while. Until he parked the car in front of a restaurant and called her.

Ji Yan came back to his senses, "What's wrong?"

Gu Jingyang's eyes signaled that she had arrived at the place, and Ji Yan reacted in hindsight. Unbuckle your seatbelts, open the doors and get out of the car. Gu Jingyang drove the car to the parking lot, and Ji Yan stood on the side of the road waiting for him.

"It's really unlucky, why are you everywhere?"

Hearing this strange yin and yang sound, Ji Yan turned his head and saw Du Wanjuan walking out of the restaurant, holding Meng Yuxin with a smile on her face.

Before she could respond to Du Wanjuan's words, she saw Meng Yuxin let go of Du Wanjuan's hand and walked in front of her.

Very familiar, he took her hand and asked, "Miss Ji, what a coincidence." ”

Then he lowered his voice and asked her, "Are you and Brother Fu here for dinner?"

As he spoke, he looked behind her, as if he wanted to find out where Fu Rongxi was.

"Mrs. Fu, Miss Meng. ”

Ji Yan was a little confused by Meng Yuxin's attitude, according to the normal routine, would the original partner be so happy to see Xiao San and her fiancΓ© go out to eat together?

Seeing the confusion in her eyes, Meng Yuxin glanced at Du Wanjuan's direction, saw that she didn't notice them, and whispered to her, "Brother Fu and you, I have known for a long time. You don't have to worry about my feelings. And, in the future we ......"

Will they get married in the future? Ji Yan was thinking.

Meng Yuxin was halfway through her words, when she suddenly stopped, staring at her back, and the unfinished words were swallowed.

Ji Yan turned around, and saw Gu Jingyang walking over slowly, naturally walked to her side and stood still, and smiled at Meng Yuxin, "Isn't this Mr. Fu's fiancΓ©e?

"You ......" Meng Yuxin looked at the two suspiciously, although they didn't make too many moves, they appeared here together...... Does Brother Fu know?

Du Wanjuan also looked at it, and directly mocked, "Yo, it turned out that I had a tryst with my little lover." ”

Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind, and she somewhat understood the purpose of Gu Jingyang bringing her here, but she was not very sure.

I felt extremely irritable for a while.

Looking at Du Wanjuan's sarcastic and disgusted gaze, she said angrily: "Why is Mrs. Fu's thinking so dirty? Is it in your eyes that there is no normal relationship between men and women?"

Du Wanjuan took a strange gaze and glanced back and forth at them, "I heard that when I went home yesterday, you hugged and hugged at the door without knowing the checkpoint." It's still a normal relationship between men and women, what about deceitful ghosts?"

Du Wanjuan didn't go back to Cuiwei Mountain yesterday, how did she know about these things? Her mind suddenly flashed to the person who pushed down the flower pot yesterday, Du Wanjuan bought people in Cuiwei Mountain. It must be, otherwise how could she happen to run into Gu Jingyang every time she went out.

Before he could speak, Gu Jingyang said on the side: "Mrs. Fu misunderstood, there is a clean relationship between me and Ji Yan, although I also want to go further with her, but I believe that it is only a matter of time." ”

These words did not mean to relieve her at all, but made the mockery in Du Wanjuan's eyes deeper.

Ji Yan looked up at Gu Jingyang, what did he mean? Is this deliberately trying to embarrass her?

Docking her gaze, Gu Jingyang smiled brightly, and his eyes were full of seriousness.

"I'm telling the truth. ”

Ji Yan clenched his hands into fists, "What nonsense are you talking about, we are innocent, don't say these misleading words." ”

Unexpectedly, even Meng Yuxin, who was still smiling with her just now, changed her face at this time, and looked at her with a gaze.

"Yanyan, you can't be selfish in my thoughts. ”

Hearing his words, Du Wanjuan whispered something disgusting, pulled Meng Yuxin, who was still stunned, and said, "Let's go, Yuxin, we're here, it's in the way." ”

Meng Yuxin wanted to say something, but she couldn't resist Du Wanjuan's strength, so she was pulled away directly.

Before leaving, Meng Yuxin also glanced at her, as if she was condemning her for cheating.

Derailment? An idea in her heart took shape in an instant, did Du Wanjuan deliberately find Meng Yuxin to arrest the evidence that she and Gu Jingyang were together?

If that's the case, she and Gu Jingyang had planned it earlier.

Thinking like this, she felt a chill in her heart, she was really stupid to the extreme, so easily designed by Gu Jingyang again.

She stared at Gu Jingyang with cold eyes.

"You did it on purpose. ”

Under her gaze, Gu Jingyang's eyes flashed with a hint of pain, and he hurriedly said, "What did you do on purpose? What I said was true." ”

"I'm talking about you bringing me here, how could it be so coincidental that you ran into Du Wanjuan and Meng Yuxin. ”

"Not really. Gu Jingyang eagerly denied, "I heard that a new restaurant has opened nearby, so I want to take you here to try it, I really didn't know that I would meet them here, not to mention, we didn't do anything, there is nothing to be embarrassed." ”

Ji Yan choked and found that he couldn't find the words to refute him.

"Think about it yourself, Fu Rongxi has nothing to do with you in name, he can hold his fiancΓ©e and appear in the public eye, so why do you guard him like a jade. ”

Gu Jingyang's words came into her ears unhurriedly, with a demagogic feeling, which made Ji Yan's heart agree with what he said.

It seems that there is some truth in what he said.

"Let's go, what are you doing standing at the door. Don't you still want to ask about your father?"

Hearing him talk about her father, the thoughts in her heart instantly took back. She wanted to find out whether Fu Rongxi was the culprit who drove the Ji family into the abyss.

"Good. ”

……

Fu Rongxi is looking at the planning plan in the office, the Affinity Villa has been acquired, and the six model houses that were burned down have also been renovated. Gu Jingyang tried his best to stop it, but in the end, he couldn't stop him from taking the entire Zhou family into his pocket.

Just then, the phone on the desk rang.

He glanced at it and pressed the answer button, "Brother Fu, you must be mentally prepared." ”

Meng Yuxin's words made him frown, "What's wrong?"

"Let me tell you, I just sat at work for a few minutes today, and Aunt Du suddenly called me and told me to go to dinner, and I wondered why Aunt Du usually didn't contact me much, so why did she suddenly say that she wanted to go to dinner with me. But I refuse, my stepmother wants to ...... again."

Fu Rongxi pressed his eyebrows, "Talk about the point!"

There was a pause, "The point is, when we came out after eating, we saw Sister Ji Yan and Gu Jingyang together." ”

Fu Rongxi pursed his lips, his fingertips tapped on the tabletop, and the expression on his face was cloudy.

Sensing the strange silence, Meng Yuxin could feel the heavy pressure on the phone. She swallowed her saliva, "I think it's Gu Jingyang and Aunt Du who are going to do it for me." ”

This sentence also reminded Fu Rongxi that Gu Jingyang seems to have appeared by Ji Yan's side frequently recently, and every time he coincidentally lets him know through others.

Is this monkey play?

"Next time Du Wanjuan looks for you again, just use me to press her. She is a stepmother, and as his fiancΓ©e, she has no obligation to please her.

On the contrary, Meng Yuxin was involved in their affairs, which made people laugh at it.

"I know, I won't go again next time. ”

After hanging up the phone, Fu Rongxi no longer had the idea of continuing to work, and he couldn't calm down in his heart. Even if Gu Jingyang had bad intentions, Ji Yan could give Gu Jingyang a chance, which made him feel extremely irritable.

She should have fallen on deaf ears when he said it.

Throwing the plan on the table, Fu Rongxi went out with the car keys, and not long after he left, the office door was pushed open again, and he saw the plan on the table at a glance.

……

Ji Yan learned from Gu Jingyang that when her father established the Ji family, it was the two of them who funded and sponsored it, so that her father had the first pot of gold. The two people he said, one was Gu Jingyang's father Gu Lin, and the other was Ji Chengye, a member of the Ji family.

She thought of Ni Yue for the first time, she had told her before that Ji Jingnian refused to tell her what happened five years ago. I secretly thought that when I went back, I was calling her.

The things that Gu Jingyang knew were also some things in the early stage of the Ji family. Other details, he didn't go into the details.

After eating, she came out of the restaurant, and Ji Yan refused to let Gu Jingyang send her again.

"I asked you out, let me send you back, you will fulfill me, let me be a flower messenger, can't you?"

Ji Yan took two steps back, but bumped into someone's arms. Ji Yan was startled and hurriedly wanted to dodge, but was imprisoned in his arms by the arm stretched out from behind.

Feeling this familiar and warm embrace, Ji Yan stiffened and did not move again.

"No need!"

Fu Rongxi's voice came from behind, "I'll take her back." ”

"Mr. Fu is really ghostly. Gu Jingyang sighed, "You can find this accurately no matter where you are, I really doubt that you have installed tracking on me, or have you installed a location on Yanyan?"

Ji Yan was stunned for a moment, reminisced from Gu Jingyang's words, and looked at Fu Rongxi behind him in disbelief.

Touching Ji Yan's gaze, Fu Rongxi's face turned cold, and he pinched her wrist with a warning implicitly.

"Positioning this kind of thing, presumably Mr. Gu has done a lot of it, but I'm different, I can only release it if I am at ease enough for my own woman. ”

Gu Jingyang was stabbed by his words, his face became very ugly, and he thought of the one he lost back then.

Ji Yan's face was slightly red when Fu Rongxi said this, and a trace of warmth crossed his heart. He must have listened to Du Wanjuan or Meng Yuxin's words before he came over. His performance surprised her a little, and she originally thought he would be furious.

Retracting his gaze from Gu Jingyang's embarrassed expression, Fu Rongxi took Ji Yan's hand, walked to the side of the car he drove over, opened the car door and stuffed her in.

Fu Rongxi stood beside the driver's seat and looked at Gu Jingyang from afar, "Mr. Gu, you asked me last time, what did those photos mean when they were sent to you." I thought about it, I should tell you, and save you from being idle to hook up with my woman. Chu Nange ......"

The word "not dead" was held in his mouth and not spoken, Fu Rongxi got into the car with a meaningful smile under Gu Jingyang's sudden face.

The air conditioner in the car was turned on very low, and Ji Yan sat in the car for a long time wearing a short T, feeling that the cold was pressing, and couldn't help but hug his arms and shiver.

Sensing this, Fu Rongxi reached out and turned off the air conditioner and threw his coat on her.

Gritted his teeth, he said, "You don't have anything to say to me?"

I don't know if I was moved by his thoughtful actions, or if I was warmed by the words he said in front of Gu Jingyang.

She didn't say anything more to him, and just told the truth.

"I met him on the way to send my child to school, and he told me about my father, and I wanted to know about it. Speaking of this, Ji Yan paused, she pursed her lips and made a lot of determination, looking at Fu Rongxi's side face, "Fu Rongxi, I don't want to be the same as before." I have hated you for five years, and in the past five years, I can recall your scarlet eyes every day, and the anger when you said that the Ji family deserved to die. ”

Fu Rongxi parked the car aside and looked at her in disbelief, "I said these things?"

Ji Yan didn't look like he was pretending from his expression, but how could he forget?

"You...... Do you want to shirk responsibility like this?"

Fu Rongxi sneered, "I never deny what I have done, how can I shirk responsibility?"

Ji Yan was silent, he was indeed like this, but this was unreasonable.

If it weren't for his eyes, she wouldn't have believed that their family's affairs would have something to do with him.

"It's you who admit that my father's imprisonment and my mother's suicide have something to do with you. And the Ji family also happened to fall into your hands and became a subsidiary of the Fu family. I just left Yucheng, and I originally came back with a heart of revenge, but my daughter's matter led to too many things that I didn't expect. I suddenly realized that five years ago, things didn't seem as simple as I thought. ”

Ji Yanqing's voice trembled slightly, "So, I went to see my father, Gu Jingyang suddenly mentioned my father's matter, I thought he knew, so I wanted to know the truth from him." Fu Rongxi, I'm really tired, I don't want to hate you anymore, I want to find a reason to let me let go of these hatreds. ”

If it weren't for his recent behavior towards her, which made her see his goodness, she would not have doubted these hatreds that had been stable for four or five years.

The car fell silent, and Fu Rongxi took out a cigarette and sandwiched it between his index and middle fingers. Didn't ignite, clipped to your fingertips and stared at the traffic coming and going outside. He didn't expect that letting Ji Yan confess would be able to involve so many thoughts about her.

Does her words mean that she can't let go of him in her heart?

But then, the excitement cooled down again, did he do such an excessive thing five years ago?

After a long time, Fu Rongxi said slowly: "You left five years ago, and I ...... Lost a year's worth of memories. Since the last time I quarreled with you, the memory of a year has gone blank in my mind. Luo Chen said that that memory hit me hard, so it was selectively forgotten. ”

Ji Yan looked at him, so he didn't know anything about the year?

She was a little depressed, wrapped in Fu Rongxi's coat, and her knuckles were slightly white.

"What did Gu Jingyang tell you?"

He didn't know much, he only told me that his father's Ji clan was established with the funding of Gu Lin and Ji Chengye. ”

One is in Yuncheng and the other is far away in the capital, and she has been amazed by her father's social network. This clue alone is obviously not enough to find the truth of what happened back then.

She was still confused and didn't know what to do.

"I see. ”

Fu Rongxi looked like he had suddenly realized, Ji Yan frowned and looked at him, "What do you know?"

The Gu family and the Ji family?

Fu Rongxi didn't answer, and started the car again, since she had decided to open her heart, there was no reason for him not to cooperate. Anyway, if there is nothing to do during this time, it is good to go on a trip.

Back in Cuiwei Mountain, Old Man Fu was sitting in the living room drinking tea, and Du Wanjuan was sitting opposite him, chatting happily.

Seeing the two of them enter the house together, Du Wanjuan's face changed slightly, and her eyes were extremely surprised.

What's the matter? They look so harmonious......

Fu Rongxi changed his shoes and walked in, Ji Yan followed behind him, and saw Old Man Fu softly calling Grandpa, but in exchange for Old Man Fu's cold snort, the tea in his hand was splashed at her.

Ji Yan didn't expect it, and before she could dodge, Fu Rongxi dodged in front of her. The tea fell on him, staining his white shirt with yellow tea stains. The water splashed on Ji Yan's arm, and she could feel that the tea was piping hot.

After being shocked, he hurriedly stepped forward to help him, "Are you okay?"

The old man didn't expect him to take Ji Yan so seriously, and for a while, he didn't know what expression was on his face.

Holding his chest in anger, "You rebel, are you going to be angry with me?"

Du Wanjuan hurriedly stepped forward to help the old man calm down, "Dad, don't be angry. This illness is just right, don't be angry again. ”

The old man gasped, looked at Fu Rongxi, and stared at Ji Yan with resentment. This look was more scorching than when he looked at her before, which made Ji Yan shrink subconsciously.

Fu Rongxi blocked her with her body, blocking the old man's sight, "It's not pleasing to the eye, we'll move out at night." ”

"You ......" The old man was reluctant to let go of his grandson, and pointed the finger at Ji Yan, "You left five years ago, why do you want to come back? Those things in your family back then hurt Rong Xi like that, and now you still refuse to let him go." ”

Hearing the old man's accusation, Ji Yan was extremely puzzled. What happened to their family, how did Fu Rongxi get hurt?

"Grandpa, what do you mean by that?" Does Grandpa know what happened back then? Just after asking a few questions, Grandpa suddenly clutched his chest and gasped for breath, looking very painful.

Old Man Fu gasped, and the person lost his life, his head tilted, and he fainted.

"Grandpa, grandpa, what's wrong with you?"

"Dad, what's wrong with you?"

Luo Chenhuo hurried over, and after doing a round of inspections, he was obviously relieved, "The old man is old and anxious, so he fainted." ”

Fu Rongxi's cup of tea was red and swollen, Ji Yan helped him take medicine, and changed his clothes before coming down.

"What did you say to Grandpa?" Fu Rongxi looked at Du Wanjuan coldly.

It's not what she said, how could grandpa suddenly take tea and pour season smoke. If it hadn't been for the one just now, he wouldn't have quarreled with his grandfather.

Du Wanjuan was stunned, and under Fu Rongxi's gaze, the expression on her face was a little unbearable.

"I, I didn't say anything. ”

"Yes. Fu Rongxi obviously didn't believe it, "Uncle Yan." ”

"Eldest young master, madam, she said to the old man, I saw Miss Ji and other men ...... outside today."

Uncle Yan remembered that Du Wanjuan said that the word was very difficult to hear, but from Ji Yan's performance in the past few days, his heart was still very biased towards her. The old man actually changed a lot of his opinion of her, but Du Wanjuan said so. The old man didn't say anything at the time, but his heart was still in his heart.

Fu Rongxi's deep eyes fell on her, and Du Wanjuan suddenly felt a chill hit her, and fear arose in her heart.

After swallowing her saliva, Du Wanjuan raised her voice and said, "What I said is true, and I am not the only one who has seen it." Yu Xin was also by my side at the time, and she saw it too. I'm just telling you the truth, what's wrong?"

Fu Rongxi stared at her, his voice was cold, "Get out, don't step into here for half a step in the future." ”

Du Wanjuan let go and retorted, "Why? Cuiwei Mountain is in the name of the old man, and it has nothing to do with you." Why are you restricting my freedom?"

"You can come, then Fu Mingcen ......"

"Thou shalt not hurt my son. Hearing Fu Mingcen's three words, Du Wanjuan suddenly annihilated her momentum, got up in a hurry, and walked out.
