A few days had passed since the last time she went out. Shen Jiao slept until three o'clock in the morning before slowly getting up. Only to find that his body was bitten by Ji Yanqing again and was bruised and bruised.
Ji Yanqing is no longer here, but Shen Jiao doesn't want to look for him at all. It was sunny outside, so she ran to the balcony to bask in the sun.
There is a large garden behind the villa, which is somewhat similar to the one in the Shen family. There was a young man below, pruning flower branches. Shen Jiao guessed that he was the gardener hired by Ji Yanqing.
"Hey, that flower is dying."
Shen Jiao leaned on the railing of the balcony, shouted to the gardener below, and pointed to the forgotten pot of flowers in the corner.
The gardener turned around and looked over, but his eyes suddenly froze.
The sunlight coated Shen Jiao with a layer of gold, and her skin was almost transparent. She stood on the balcony and looked down at him. At that moment, the colorful flowers lost their color in his eyes.
Shen Jiao saw the gardener staring at her stupidly and not paying attention to the pot of flowers. Shen Jiao thought he didn't hear clearly, so she pointed out her hand again, "It's right there, that pot of pink flowers. It doesn't even get the sun."
The gardener came to his senses, "What?"
Shen Jiao secretly complained in her heart, seeing how her eyes and ears were not working well at such a young age.
"I'm talking about that flower." Shen Jiao pointed for the third time.
The gardener withdrew his eyes, looked in the direction Shen Jiao pointed, and found a pot of wilted peonies in the corner. Because of its relatively hidden location, he ignored it during this period.
The gardener took out the pot of flowers and found that most of the petals had fallen off. Shen Jiao looked aside for a while and felt that the flower looked like herself. Being locked up in a dark place, unable to welcome the sunshine, rain and dew outside.
Shen Jiao felt a little depressed, "Can it still survive?"
The gardener observed it carefully and said, "Okay, it's just a little lack of water. It's not a big problem."
Hearing this, Shen Jiao immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Shen Jiao smiled at him and said, "Sorry to trouble you."
The gardener was dazzled by her smile and stuttered in response: "No, no trouble...this is what I should do."
Shen Jiao thought to herself, why can't she even use her mouth?
"Jiaojiao, what are you looking at?"
The man's broad chest pressed against her from behind, and Shen Jiao was instantly enveloped in the cedar scent of his body.
"...I didn't see anything."
Shen Jiao turned around and wanted to leave. Ji Yanqing glanced down casually, suddenly grabbed her and pressed her against the railing. He couldn't help but lift her chin and kissed her.
"Uh! Why don't you do it?" Shen Jiao asked him vaguely.
Ji Yanqing didn't answer, he just held the back of her head and kissed her deeper.
The gardener stood downstairs, watching this scene blankly.
Suddenly he met Ji Yanqing's cold eyes, full of warning.
The gardener lowered his head hastily, horrified.
It turns out that she is the person the housekeeper said... the most beautiful and delicate rose that Ji Yan cleared here and carefully raised.
This was not something he could covet... The gardener lowered his head in panic, not daring to look any further.
…
"Mr. Ji! Long time no see."
A middle-aged man in a suit and tie greeted them enthusiastically after seeing them enter. However, his eyes fell on the girl next to him who could not be ignored, and his tone became hesitant.
"Who is this……"
Ji Yanqing shook hands with him and introduced him lightly: "She is my lover."
Ignoring the surprised look on his face, Ji Yanqing remained calm, nodded slightly to him, and entered the venue together with Shen Jiao on his arm.
Shen Jiao lowered her head, blocking out the many curious eyes that looked at her.
She had worked hard to get this banquet. I heard that Ji Yanqing had rejected this invitation, but somehow the invitation was still sent to the villa and was opened by Shen Jiao and saw it.
It had been several days since the last time she went out. Shen Jiao felt like her days were like a year when she stayed in the villa. Now that she had such a good opportunity, she would not miss it.
In order to attend the banquet, she was forced to say anything by Ji Yanqing that night, and she was very obedient. No matter how much Ji Yanqing went too far, she did not resist. Even if she cried over and over, she did not refuse.
For this hard-won opportunity, Shen Jiao was very motivated. She must escape no matter what this time!
People kept coming up to talk to Ji Yanqing. Shen Jiao saw that he had no time to pay attention to her, so she whispered to Ji Yanqing when no one was around:
"I want to go to the bathroom..."
Ji Yanqing looked down at her and said, "I'll go with you."
Shen Jiao quickly refused, "No, I can go by myself."
Seeing that the man was still looking at her expressionlessly, Shen Jiao's voice became even lower: "...or you can have someone follow me."
After a long time, Ji Yanqing slowly said, "No, I believe the good boy won't run around, right?"
Shen Jiao tried her best to suppress her guilty conscience and nodded vigorously.
"Yeah. I'm very good."
Ji Yanqing stood there, watching Shen Jiao's back disappear around the corner, and there was no trace of warmth in his eyes.
He's gambling.
Bet that Shen Jiao would come back to find him. Bet she has him in her heart.
Jiaojiao, please don’t let me down...
…
Shen Jiao was on tenterhooks all the way, fearing that Ji Yanqing would secretly send someone to follow her. So as she walked, she would suddenly look back several times to see if anyone suspicious was following her.
In the end, the suspicious person was not seen, but a girl who was walking behind her and going to the bathroom looked at her strangely.
"Why is she so beautiful and mentally ill..." The girl muttered in a low voice and quickly walked away from her.
Shen Jiao: "……."
Shen Jiao even checked with the system to confirm that Ji Yanqing indeed did not send anyone to follow her.
Shen Jiao's heart was beating wildly. She knew that this was the only time she could escape.
She will never miss this opportunity!
