Chapter 168: The Price

Just when Ji Xun didn't dare to breathe, Jin Linchen let go of his hand.

"Ji Xun, I finally understand why Fu Yanhan is addicted to you."

He curled his lips and said, "Why didn't you push me away just now?"

Ji Xun's face was a little pale, and he lowered his head and didn't know how to answer.

"Jin Linchen, I have given birth to a child. You can find a better one. I took what you said before as a joke."

Jin Linchen straightened his collar and said, "I hope you can take back this sentence."

After he finished speaking, he slowly looked towards her again, "Ji Xun, maybe you reject me now and say you won't have anything to do with me in the future."

Ji Xun clenched his sleeves tightly, "But I won't fall in love with you, Jin Linchen, there is someone in my heart, you know it."

She seemed to have put in a lot of effort when she said this, and sweat broke out on her forehead.

"But you need me."

She paused suddenly.

"This is unfair to you, Jin Linchen. I say from the bottom of my heart that you deserve better."

"You are not qualified to make decisions for me about what is the right person for me."

"But so far, you are the most suitable person for me that I have ever met."

Jin Linchen's tone was unreasonable, and even Ji Xun was a little distracted.

How could she have that kind of involvement with him.

In her heart, he has always been a good person.

"Let's not talk about this for now, okay? The noodles are cold and can't be eaten."

Ji Xun shrank his hands and spoke softly.

"Okay, let's not talk about it for now."

Jin Linchen picked up the bowl of noodles and said, "Don't waste it, I'll eat it."

"But it's cold..."

Just as she was about to raise her hand to stop, Jin Linchen started eating.

The tip of Ji Xun's nose was a little sore. She suddenly thought of that time when she made noodles and waited for Fu Yanhan for a long time and he didn't come back.

But the man in front of her, who was just a friend to her, had given her warmth many times.

"It won't taste as good if it's cold, right?"

She asked in a hoarse voice.

Jin Linchen ate quickly, "It's a bit lumpy, but it's still edible."

There was no hint of disgust or reluctance in his eyes, but he spoke openly, as if the embarrassment just now was just a figment of Ji Xun's own imagination.

"When I first lived in S City, I often didn't have enough to eat. At that time, I was thinking about working hard and making money every day. Sometimes A Jian and I could survive the whole day with half a steamed bun."

Ji Xun listened to his words intently, feeling sour in his heart again, and actually felt a little more distressed.

For such a big man, he only eats half a steamed bun a day.

How can I be full?

Ji Xun listened quietly, trying hard to think about what kind of life Jin Linchen was living at that time.

But she has never experienced it and cannot empathize with it.

My only thought is that I feel sorry for him.

"Jin Linchen, it's all over. Look, you're fine now."

Ji Xun tried his best to smile and comfort him.

But Jin Linchen no longer cares about the past.

“I couldn’t say it was bad before, and I can’t say it’s good now.”

Jin Linchen snorted, "Okay, can I use you to comfort me?"

He put the bowl down and wiped his mouth with paper.

"The taste is not bad. I waited for you at the door for half an hour."

After he finished speaking, he stood up, took his clothes and put them on, "Let's go."

Before Ji Xun could react, he stood up with him.

"Ah...did you drive here by yourself, or should Ajian pick you up?"

She didn't know what to say for a moment, and even felt that she was a little too much, being so stingy with him.

"Ajian is here to pick me up. Okay, I'm leaving and you can feel comfortable alone. Don't come out."

After he finished speaking, he walked out and closed the door, isolating the two of them.

Ji Xun faced the door, feeling a little depressed.

She understood that Jin Linchen left so quickly because he was afraid of being embarrassed.

I'm really stingy to argue with him about this.

The more Ji Xun thought about it, the more he felt sorry for him. He walked slowly back to the living room, only to find that the man had left his cell phone behind.

She originally wanted to help him put it away, but accidentally turned on the screen and saw Ajian's message.

[Boss, that would be very expensive. Do you really want to fight Fu Yanhan for that woman?]

She had some doubts in her heart. Looking at the three words "that woman", she guessed that she might be referring to herself.

Ji Xun pursed his lips and clicked on the message, seeing the conversation between the two.

Did Fu Yanhan cause trouble for him first? Did he know that he had contact with Jin Linchen?

Ji Xun tightened his grip and quickly turned off the screen after reading the entire content.

Originally, what he said at the beginning was cooperation, but now not only did she not help him, but she also caused him trouble.

If he hadn't been there, Fu Yanhan probably wouldn't have taken action against him.

Ji Xun clutched the phone, and his originally erratic heart suddenly had a direction.

She can't go on like this, otherwise not only will she be hurt, but also important people and people around her may be implicated.

Ji Xun gave a bitter laugh, why did she feel like she was as unlucky as a broom star before.

She was confused and walked towards the room with her cell phone in hand.

Get a good sleep tonight. Starting tomorrow, we will really start to make those people pay the price little by little.



next day

After Fu Yanhan woke up, his head hurt terribly.

Today is Friday and he has surgery tomorrow.

Thinking of this, the man sat up from the bed.

He must have drunk too much last night.

Si Yi should have sent him back.

Fu Yanhan didn't even need to look to know that Ji Xun must not have returned here.

After he got up, he washed his face before going downstairs.

Aunt Zhang had already prepared breakfast and hurried over here when she saw Fu Yanhan coming.

"Sir, are you feeling better now? You were drunk yesterday. Mr. Mu sent you back. My wife didn't come back last night either."

Fu Yanhan hummed and walked towards the dining table.

Although he has no appetite, he eats breakfast regularly every day and it has become a habit.

"What time did I get back last night?"

Fu Yanhan looked at the time. It was eight o'clock in the morning. He probably hadn't slept for too long.

"Two o'clock in the morning."

Six hours.

Fu Yanhan rubbed his temples and put it down after taking a few bites.

"Take it away."

After he finished speaking, he got up and went to the living room. The cell phone placed on the coffee table vibrated twice.

Fu Yanhan walked over and took a look. It was news from Qi Qian and a video.
