Chapter 924
What the hell is this lunatic up to? How did he suddenly change into a different person in the blink of an eye? Could it be that he’s hiding something from her?
She sensed something was wrong, so instead of leaving, when he opened the office door, about to push her out, she suddenly turned and forcefully pushed him back inside: "Ji Chengzhi, what’s gotten into you? Are you out of your mind? Trying to make me leave?"
Ji Chengzhi was caught off guard and staggered back several steps before finally steadying himself!
Is he out of his mind?
All he did was to protect her, okay? Now the entire hospital is full of that old man’s people. If they kept an eye on her, she might get into some trouble.
Ji Chengzhi was so angry his eyes turned red: "Fine, what will it take for you to leave?"
Ye Ning’s face was ashen: "Call her, and I’ll leave after you do!"
Call him?
Fine, call him, as long as it’s done in this office, it should be fine.
So he really did take out his phone from his pocket...
When Ye Ning saw that, she instantly tensed up, her eyes fixed dead on the hand he was about to use to dial.
However, just as he was about to dial, he suddenly stopped: "Wait, why do you want me to call him?"
Ye Ning choked on her words...
It took a while, but finally, through clenched teeth: "Why won’t you call him? With such a big issue, not asking him doesn’t concern you at all?"
"I’m worried, but after worrying, what then? What can you do? Other than saying a few hollow comforting words, what else can you say?"
Ye Ning was speechless!
For a moment, she was left speechless by this bastard.
Ji Chengzhi saw her stumped and continued: "Can’t figure out what to say, huh? Let me tell you, that bastard is much stronger than you think. When something happens, you just cry as if it’s the end of the world. Him? He might actually be hoping for it."
Ye Ning: "..."
What does he mean by that? What does he mean by he might be hoping for it?
Ye Ning’s brow furrowed deeper, and after he said that, he truly was not going to call, making her face darken: "Are you hiding something from me? What exactly is he doing now?"
Ji Chengzhi shrugged: "How would I know what he’s doing? I’m not his personal secretary."
"But you are the one who can contact him now!"
"Yes, but that doesn’t mean I know what he’s doing. I only know that every time I have a video call with him, he’s either fishing, taking care of the kids, or painting. Who knows what he’s up to?"
Ye Ning: "..."
Fishing? Painting?
Can he even paint?
Suddenly, something stirred inside her heart, a scene of a man standing in the golden morning light, painting the natural landscape appeared, her eyes softened, her face even showed a trace of yearning.
If she were part of that scene, it would be wonderful...
"Alright, stop overthinking it. Considering the situation now, if you don’t want him to have trouble, you better not stir things up."
"What do you mean?"
"Can’t you see it yet? The reason you’ve been fine since the incident broke out is largely due to Mucen controlling the Ou family. But now that his power has been isolated, he can’t protect you. Without his protection, do you think you could be so carefree?"
