Seeing Ji Zhen's call, Shao Jun hesitated before choosing to answer the call. After answering Ji Zhen's phone call, Shao Jun's complexion suddenly darkened, and the originally gentle facial lines of his jaw suddenly became tense.
Ji Zhen said other things on the phone, but Shao Jun didn't hear them. At this moment, only Ji Zhen's last sentence echoed in his mind - Ji Zhen said on the phone that the old man Yan Qingshan had a sudden emergency and is currently being rescued in the hospital.
Noticing the change in Shao Jun's expression, Xu Nianyi asked cautiously, "What's wrong? Did something happen?"
Shao Jun nodded, and told Xu Nianyi the news in a low voice.
"You still have a grandfather? Why didn't you introduce me the last time I went to your house?"
"That's because I'm worried that the old man will be overly excited when he sees you, which will affect his health. He likes you as a granddaughter-in-law very much." Shao Jun said and took Xu Nianyi's hand, "Do you remember the silver in your hand?" Where did the bracelet come from?"
Xu Nianyi looked at the bracelet on his hand, frowned and thought for a while and said, "I don't seem to remember it, I don't remember the part about this bracelet."
"This is the wedding gift that the old man gave you when we decided to get married, and it is also the most cherished thing of the old man."
Xu Nian stared at the bracelet for a while, but didn't think of anything at all.
"I'll take you and Yifeng home first, and then I'll go back to my hometown to see the old man." Shao Jun said in a low voice.
Xu Nianyi thought for a while and said, "No, I'll go with you, just in case..."
Shao Jun lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then nodded. The old man is old, and in case of any accident, it is a comfort to see his grandson-in-law and great-grandson before he dies.
After the decision was made, Shao Jun notified Shen Feng and Wei Shaokai of the news that he was going back to his hometown, then Xiao Guo drove the car, left Xia Hai quickly, and went straight to City C.

Kelly Hotel lobby.
Wen Xiangqing was sitting in the coffee seat by the window, looking out the window in a daze, the coffee in front of him was emitting a mist, but Wen Xiangqing didn't seem to be able to smell the aroma of the coffee, and looked absent-minded.
Ever since Xu Fei insulted and provoked her face to face last time, her heart has never calmed down. Xu Fei's words hurt her deeply, yes, in just one year, she seemed to have changed from a proud princess to a humble commoner.
In the past, I only did things according to my own preferences, and I never couldn't get what I wanted. As long as it is a request made by myself, my brother will always try every means to fulfill it for him.
From Shao Jun, she experienced for the first time what failure and helplessness are.
She still didn't believe that Shao Jun didn't like her, all because of that woman named Xu Nianyi. So she tried her best to make Xu Nianyi disappear from Shao Jun's world, but she still failed. Not only did Shao Jun not like him, but he hated him to the bone.
The sense of failure made her choose to stay away from Shao Jun, or to escape. The reason why she really didn't want to face Shao Jun was because she didn't want to face her own failure.
Xiang Bei quietly sat down opposite her, and asked softly, "Ah Qing, are you in a bad mood?"
Wen Xiangqing still looked out of the window and shook her head blankly, "I don't know what mood I'm in right now, it seems like my heart is empty."
Xiang Bei felt a pain in his heart, and comforted him softly: "As long as I completely defeat Shao Jun this time, I will take you out of here. We will go to Africa, where the air is good and the environment is good. I will build you a wooden house on the grassland. You can Raise a few lambs, and then raise a shepherd dog, remember, when you were young, you said that you would herd sheep when you grew up, and then lay on the grass to sleep, and let the shepherd dog help you watch the flock graze.”
There was a smile on Wen Xiangqing's face, and a little yearning in his eyes.
"Yeah, that used to be my dream, maybe in my heart, I still want to be that little girl herding sheep."
The golden sunlight passed through the glass and shone on Wen Xiangqing's white smiling face, exuding a holy radiance. Looking at the smile on Wen Xiangqing's face to the north, he was a little crazy for a while.
"But this is destined to be just a dream. The little girl herding sheep should be peaceful, happy, and full of hope for every day. And I am sure whether there will be a tomorrow."
Xiangbei comforted softly: "Ah Qing, don't think about it. After all this is over, I will take you to the grassland to herd horses and sheep. You will always be that peaceful and happy shepherd girl in my heart. I am willing to be your shepherd for the rest of my life." dog, to watch over your flock while you were asleep."
Wen Xiangqing turned her face and looked at her brother with grateful eyes, "Brother, thank you, but you don't know that in my simple dream, not only the shepherd dog but also a dog named Shao Jun accompanied me to herd the sheep." Little boy... without him this dream would not be complete..."
Xiangbei's heart sank to the bottom of the valley immediately, and a bone-chilling chill rose from the soles of his feet, sweeping across his body in an instant.
"You can't forget him after all—"
Xiang Bei's voice was hoarse, and he was extremely depressed.
Wen Xiangqing smiled bitterly, "I always thought that as soon as Xu Nian left his world, I could win his heart, but in the end all I got was his hatred."
"Ah Qing, give up, Shao Jun is destined not to be the one to accompany you to the end, you can't waste any more time on him."
"Yeah," Wen Xiangqing let out a long breath, leaned back and leaned on the back of the chair, "but I understand now that it doesn't matter if all I get is his hatred, it at least proves that I am He still has a place in his heart, and he will still remember that there is such a person as Wen Xiangqing."
"Ah Qing, why are you bothering..."
Wen Xiangqing forced a smile and said: "Brother, I will never persuade you to give up your revenge in the future, and I will not hold you back. If I can, I will do my best to help you."
Xiang Bei was silent for a while, then shook his head, "I don't know how long it will take, Shao Jun is more difficult to deal with than before, not to mention the few brothers around him, even if I am one-on-one with him, I will It may not be his opponent, I have too few resources available now. Not to mention anything else, we are almost running out of money now, the elder brother has frozen all our accounts and credit cards, and all our industries in Huaxia before It's under Yan Kuan's name, and it's hard for me to find a really useful subordinate now."
"Didn't you contact a group of 'on the road' people? And they have done things for us before, haven't they?"
Xiang Bei smiled wryly, "They don't do things for me, they do things for money. As soon as our funds are cut off, they turn around and leave immediately. And at best they can only do some tracking work. Now that Xu Nianyi has such a big name in the Let it go, they dare not do anything to her at all."
Wen Xiangqing nodded thoughtfully after listening.
"Brother, I signed up for a yoga class. It's time for the class, so I'm leaving first." Wen Xiangqing picked up the bag at hand.
"I send you."
"No, it's not far from here, you can go about your business, I'm leaving." Wen Xiangqing declined Xiangbei's proposal, and left the hotel alone.
She didn't sign up for any yoga class, she was going to meet someone to make a deal.

Baoli Group.
When Wen Xiangqing saw Yan Kuan on the roof of the Baoli Group Building, he was lying on a sun lounger by the swimming pool, wearing only a pair of black swimming trunks.
"Kuan, I'm here."
Yan Kuan opened his eyes and took a look at Wen Xiangqing. Instead of standing up, he patted another empty recliner beside him, and said with a smile, "Sit down and bask in the sun with me."
"I came to see you today because I want to..."
"If you don't want to bask in the sun with me, then wait until I'm done. I don't like talking about things while sunbathing." Yan Kuan looked away from Wen Xiangqing, closed his eyes again, and his tone became very light .
Wen Xiangqing felt a surge of anger in her heart. Once upon a time, Yan Kuan always had a submissive and polite attitude when she saw that she had never seen such an arrogant Yan Kuan.
Thinking of her purpose of coming to him today, she finally controlled her emotions and sat down on the recliner beside Yan Kuan.
Five minutes passed, ten minutes passed, and Wen Xiangqing just sat there for half an hour.
Just when her patience was about to run out, Yan Kuan finally opened his eyes, stood up and stretched, and let out a pleasant low cry.
"Kuan, I..."
Plop—
As soon as Wen Xiangqing opened his mouth, Yan Kuan jumped into the swimming pool, and the water splashed Wen Xiangqing all over.
In the past, Wen Xiangqing would definitely have walked away, but now she does not have the qualifications. She stood by the pool, suppressing the unhappiness in her heart and looking at Yan Kuan who was swimming freestyle in the pool.
After a few back and forth, Yan Kuan finally went ashore, and immediately a hot beauty walked over and put a towel on him.
Yan Kuan unscrupulously patted the beauty's buttocks, the beauty moaned coquettishly, then turned her buttocks away after throwing him a wink.
"Ah Kuan, I came today to talk to you about something."
Only then did Yan Kuan turn his face to her, and said casually: "Okay, our old friends for so many years, just talk about anything, and see if I can help."
"I think you should know my current situation. I need help."
Yan Kuan nodded, "That's right, your elder brother visited me a few days ago, and we talked for a long time, during which he also mentioned your siblings."
Wen Xiangqing was somewhat surprised by the news, "Why did my elder brother tell you?"
"He said that your brothers and sisters ran away from home without permission. He has frozen all your accounts, and asked me to send you a message. He will let you go home immediately. Oh, by the way, he also told me that I can't help you." Yan Wide said lightly.
"Ah Kuan, I need your help now, and don't worry, I won't let anyone know that we have a connection."
Yan Kuan looked Wen Xiangqing up and down, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Helping you, what benefits can I get?"
