Ji Shiting smiled and said, "I have to thank one of your fans. She knows Jiang Yu."
Ye Shengge's eyes widened.
The man didn't explain anything else. He told the driver, "Go back to Qianfan Villa."
"Let's go back to Jade Spring Palace first," Ye Shengge said as she leaned against the man's chest. "Lin Qi and Shang Tianyi must be worried sick."
Lin Qi could only be a witness at most, not a suspect, so she was released after recording her statement that day.
Ji Shiting paused and said, "Then, when are you coming back to Qianfan Villa with me?"
Ye Shengge smiled and said, "I'll go back with you after I'm done packing. Even if grandpa chases me away, I'll stick to you."
Ji Shiting took a deep breath, cupped her face, and kissed her lips. He didn't let go until a while later.
As their breathing intertwined, Ye Shengge saw her reflection in the man's dark eyes.
She suddenly felt a sharp pain in her heart.
"Did you think I was coaxing you that day?"
"I thought you were acting for those people." The man smiled. "That's why I didn't have much hope."
Ye Shengge's heart skipped a beat when she heard that.
"Shiting." Her voice was choked. "Why?"
This man was so arrogant, but why was he so persistent towards her, persistent to the point of being humble?
Ji Shiting's Adam's apple bobbed as he placed his hand on her abdomen.
"You don't remember anything about that night." He said hoarsely. "Tell me after you get drunk that I love and protect you too much, so much that you can't handle it."
Ye Shengge was dazed.
"It's not because I love and protect you too much, but because I've been asking for it," the man said and took a deep breath. The man exhaled deeply. "At that time, I realized that I needed you more, and you didn't need me as much as you thought."
"Shiting, I …"
"I know you're going to argue again." The man smiled. "I need your unconditional love and trust. I need you to give yourself to me completely. You know how greedy I am."
Ye Shengge hugged him and said, "It's okay. I'll give you whatever you want."
"Actually, you're right to hold back." His voice was low and hoarse, and he spoke very slowly. "I wanted your full trust and devotion, but I failed to live up to your trust."
"Who said that?" She couldn't help retorting. "You've given me too much."
"I used to think that I was omnipotent." The man looked at her. "But I can't do anything about your illness. Instead, I made you suffer for so long."
"That's not your fault …"
"It's my fault that I didn't keep my promise." He laughed self-deprecatingly. "It's the same this time. I know you're innocent, but I can't convince others of your innocence. You, on the other hand, are always calm and decisive, surprising me time and time again. "
Ye Shengge stared at him blankly. She didn't understand what he was trying to say, so she looked confused.
