“Forget it.” His voice was hoarse. “I don’t want to suffer like this anymore.”
Ye Shengge was dazed for a bit before she realized what he meant by ‘suffer’.
She leaned on his back while laughing, but Ji Shiting soon slapped her butt.
…
The resort seemed especially quiet in the evening, probably because it was far from the city.
There was a huge hot spring in their room, and Ye Shengge was scrolling through Weibo while soaking in it.
She received Shang Tianyi’s WeChat message in the afternoon, and she knew the direction that the public opinion was leaning towards, but she couldn’t help scrolling through the comments.
She was relieved that they were all happy for her.
Fortunately, the case hadn’t been delayed for long, and the real culprit had been caught while the audience was still paying attention to it. Otherwise, her image as a murderer would’ve been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people after a few months, and not many people would pay attention even if she was declared innocent.
At that moment, Chu Dongyang called her and asked her to continue acting in the show. Ye Shengge couldn’t bring herself to agree since she had told Ji Shiting with certainty that she wanted to take the chance to take a break from work.
However, she agreed on impulse when Chu Dongyang said he couldn’t find a better actress than her. She hung up the phone, not knowing how to break the news to Ji Shiting.
Ji Shiting received a top secret document.
He bit his cigarette, looking cold and solemn.
As expected, the person behind this couldn’t help but surface after the announcement was made in the afternoon.
Jiang Yu had also called him to confirm that.
It wasn’t a coincidence that his grandpa had given him Jing Tong’s information. Perhaps that insensible heiress still didn’t know that she had been used by her biological father.
Ji Shiting flipped through Jing Zhiyuan’s resume, but he still couldn’t figure out why this person suddenly developed a grudge against the Ji family.
However, if the finance minister wanted to attack T.S. Corporation, it would be bad news for T.S. and the Ji family. Even if he could win the war, he would suffer heavy losses.
Jing Zhiyuan was one of them.
Ji Shiting closed the document, opened his email and sent Xiao Ruilang the results of the neural network research.
After more than ten minutes, Xiao Ruilang sent a reply and a cute emoji, which was quite gross.
Ji Shiting closed his email and sneered.
He hoped that the godsend opportunity wouldn’t overwhelm him.
He closed his laptop and saw Ye Shengge walking toward him.
The man immediately put out the cigarette and threw it into the ashtray. He stood up and walked toward her. “Why didn’t you stay in the tub for longer?”
“I’m bored alone…” The woman sounded aggrieved.
Ji Shiting swallowed his saliva, walked over and picked her up. “Then, I’ll accompany you.”
…
It was obvious what would happen if they went to the hot spring together.
Although Ji Shiting was trying to control himself, she still couldn’t stop panting from his actions and it took a long time for her to return to normal.
She recalled Producer Chu’s phone call and hesitated to tell him about it.
“How long are we staying here, Shiting?” She blinked.
The man pressed his forehead against hers and said, “We’ll stay as long as you want.”
Ye Shengge hesitated for a bit and said, “Can we go back in three days?”
“Why are you in such a hurry?” He wrapped his arms around her waist and said lazily.
