Half an hour later, He Yanzhi returned to the room with a towel.

  Little Qi then changed into her robe. “You go to sleep first. I’m going to wash up.”


  He Yanzhi nodded slightly. He could not bear to break the warm atmosphere at this moment, so he pulled away the blanket and lay on the bed.

  Little Qi went into the bathroom to wash up. A moment later, she returned to the bedroom and lay down beside He Yanzhi.

  He had already fallen into a deep sleep. Because of the cold and the rain, he did not have any extra energy to wait for Little Qi to come out of the bathroom.

  Little Qi lay on her side on the bed and looked at the man. Then, she slowly pulled him into her arms.

  “Sleep well. When you wake up tomorrow, everything will be over.”
……

  The next morning, the morning light was faint.

  He Yanzhi woke up from his bed and found the room empty. Xiao Qi had disappeared without a trace.

  He quickly got up to look for her, but when he opened the door, he saw Zhi Chu standing guard at the door. “Brother He, why are you so anxious? Are you looking for Sister-in-law?”


  “Where is she?” He Yanzhi asked while putting on his coat.

  “I’ve already sent her to school for class……” Zhi Chu replied with a smile.

  He Yanzhi looked up and realized that it was already 10 a.m.

  It was good that she didn’t leave his side.

  He Yanzhi heaved a sigh of relief.

  “Brother Yang has called several times already. There’s something that needs your attention.” Zhi Chu handed the phone to He Yanzhi. “Brother Nan has switched sides.”


  When He Yanzhi heard this news, he didn’t have much of an expression on his face. If it weren’t for Brother Nan’s subordinates who leaked his information, Auntie Hong and Grandma wouldn’t have died.

  “Brother Yang hopes that you’ll handle this matter properly and take over Brother Nan’s territory.”


  “I have my own plans for this matter.” He Yanzhi took the phone and put it in his trouser pocket. “I’m going to see Brother Yang. You go and do something for me. Take care of the house at Lu Shan.”


  “Okay.” Zhi Chu did not want He Yanzhi to be affected by the scene all the time. “Then, will you personally pick up Sister-in-law tonight?”


  He Yanzhi raised his head and looked coldly at Zhi Chu. His intentions were obvious. He had overstepped his boundaries.

  Zhi Chu shrank where he stood and did not dare to ask about his boss’ personal matters……

  At Jianchuan High School, noon.

  Yan Zhen and Little Qi were having lunch in the school cafeteria.

  Seeing that Little Qi was distracted, Yan Zhen leaned on her arm and winked at her. “Have you been staying with He Yanzhi for the past few days?”


  “Yes, I’m staying at his house,” Little Qi said bluntly.

  “Then you two……”


  “What are you thinking about? His grandmother passed away. Do you think he has other thoughts on his mind?” Little Qi rolled her eyes at Yan Zhen.

  “He’s in the underworld. What can’t he think about?” Yan Zhen snorted. “So, you’ve completely forgiven him?”


  Little Qi didn’t say anything because she was also asking herself the same question. Did her anger disappear just like that?

  A moment later, she decisively answered Yan Zhen, “It disappeared.”


  In this world, other than life and death, everything else was trivial.

  He Yanzhi didn’t betray her, and he didn’t toy with her. Since she couldn’t let go of He Yanzhi, why did she have to dwell on the past?

  “You are too easy on him!” Yan Zhen pursed his lips. After all, Little Qi had been in pain for five years.

  Wrong…… Although she had calmed down, this did not mean that she would not punish He Yanzhi.

  Little Qi thought so.

  She had plenty of ways to deliberately punish that bastard.
