BXBX NOVEL Chapter 881 - 881 It Was Mine to Begin With
Unless Shen Hanxing and Ji Yan could keep an eye on Lele if there were a mistake or negligence…. Shen Hanxing closed her eyes, and her eyes were bloodshot. Only a thief could be a thief for a thousand days. How could one guard against a thief for a thousand days? There would always be times when one’s secrets would slip up. A little mistake could mean the loss of a life. She could not take the risk.
“You can’t listen anymore?” Zhan Cangqiong laughed. It seemed that Shen Hanxing’s reaction pleased him more than the newspaper’s contents. He said happily, “Mrs. Ji doesn’t seem to be able to take it. I still have a lot of things that I haven’t read yet. To be honest, no wonder the country advocates studying more.” He said excitedly and emotionally, “I just read some newspapers and learned so much from them. I can’t wait to give it a try.”
As he spoke, Zhan Cangqiong patted the newspaper on his hand. The thick stack of newspapers emitted a dull sound under his actions. Lele’s innocent and pure smile flashed across Shen Hanxing’s mind. Lele, this child, had suffered so much before, but he still had innocence and cuteness. When he felt the kindness of others, he would trust them fully. She had just promised Lele that she would keep him, but if she sent him back to the orphanage, it would hurt his feelings.
There were many things that Lele didn’t want to say, but Shen Hanxing couldn’t pretend that she didn’t know. Angel Orphanage was not a good place. But if she didn’t send Lele back, Zhan Cangqiong would be like a poisonous snake hidden in the dark. No one knew when he would suddenly appear and give a fatal blow.
Shen Hanxing felt as if there was a huge stone weighing down on her heart, making it difficult for her to breathe. She remained silent.
“You want Lele back?” At this moment, Ji Yan’s cold voice rang out. As he spoke to Zhan Cangqiong, Ji Yan silently held Shen Hanxing’s hand.
Shen Hanxing tilted her head and looked over. Ji Yan’s expression did not change at all. His dark eyes stared coldly at the phone on the table. Shen Hanxing felt a sense of security when she saw him. It was as if no matter how great the suffering was, it could be solved with Ji Yan around. She did not know when she had trusted him so much.
Shen Hanxing pursed her lips nervously and looked at Ji Yan expectantly. Ji Yan’s thumb rubbed Shen Hanxing’s hand comfortingly and gave her a reliable look. Shen Hanxing’s heart strangely sank.
“That’s mine, isn’t it?” Zhan Cangqiong laughed. He seemed to feel he had grasped Shen Hanxing and Ji Yan’s weaknesses. His smile was bloody as he said proudly and evilly, “If President Ji really can’t bear to part with him, why don’t you exchange it with something? Unfortunately, I don’t lack anything. I’m afraid some ordinary things won’t be able to move me.” He seemed to be distressed, and even his tone was conflicted. Then, as if he had thought of a good solution, he said excitedly, “I’m afraid President Ji and Madam Ji won’t be able to take out anything I’m interested in. Why don’t the two of you kowtow to me?”
Zhan Cangqiong laughed evilly and emphasized again, “Kowtow to me, and I’ll give Lele to you guys to play with. How about it? Since the two of you are so kind, you won’t be unwilling to do such a simple thing, right?” He seemed to think that he had come up with a good idea and could not help but laugh out loud. He wanted to see how Shen Hanxing and Ji Yan would choose!
Although Ji Yan’s reputation was cold and fierce, he was a good person. He was invincible in the business world, powerful and reliable. On the other hand, Shen Hanxing was decisive and kind-hearted. Whether it was her methods or sense, she was a good citizen who followed the law. Zhan Cangqiong naturally did not care about Lele. He was just a child. In his eyes, Lele was like an ant. He just liked to make things difficult for others.
