Xia Wanyuan reached out and patted Jun Shiling. “What’s wrong with condemning me?”
Jun Shiling snorted softly.
He was a man, so he could understand Xuan Sheng’s thoughts the best. How could Xuan Sheng be relieved?
The fact that he could sit and chat peacefully with Lu Li meant that Xuan Sheng had no other thoughts about Lu Li.
!!
As for Xia Wanyuan, Jun Shiling thought that if Xia Wanyuan had never liked him, he would definitely never get married in his life and live his life like this with the memories of being with Xia Wanyuan.
Thinking of this, Jun Shiling suddenly felt very lucky. He pulled Xia Wanyuan into his arms. “Thank you.”
Xia Wanyuan felt that she knew Jun Shiling better, but at this moment, she really could not understand Jun Shiling’s train of thought. “Thank you for what?”
Jun Shiling did not speak. He only lowered his head and sealed all the answers in his kiss, sending them all to Xia Wanyuan.
Of course, it was to thank you for not letting me live alone in a world filled with memories. Thank you for choosing me.
Xia Wanyuan was at a loss by Jun Shiling’s sudden enthusiasm, but soon, she melted into Jun Shiling’s endless love.

Lin Qingyuan stayed in the Wei family for a while and left after checking Wei Jin’s injuries.
When he returned to the Lin family’s courtyard, Lin Qingyuan had just arrived at the door when he heard the commotion inside.
The butler welcomed them. “Young Master, Miss and the rest are back.”
As he spoke, Su Yueran and Lin Wei walked out.
Su Yueran had a proper smile on her face as she called out to Lin Qingyuan, “Brother.”
Lin Wei glanced at Lin Qingyuan, but she looked very reluctant. In the end, under Lin Qingyuan’s gaze, Lin Wei still called out, “Brother.”
Lin Qingyuan nodded. “It’s rare for the two of you to come back. Rest at home for two days.”
Su Yueran smiled gently. “Okay, Big Brother. You’ve worked hard.”
Lin Wei looked away and Lin Qingyuan glanced at her. “Lin Wei, come to the backyard with me.”
Su Yueran watched Lin Wei and Lin Qingyuan leave and clenched her fists.
It would always be like this. It was as if no matter how hard I tried, I would not be the one to be doted on.
As for Lin Wei, even if she never returned to the Lin family, she seemed to be able to easily obtain the sincere love of others.
Even someone like Lin Qingyuan would protect Lin Wei.
In the backyard, Lin Qingyuan sat on a chair and poured a cup of tea for Lin Wei. “How have you been recently?”
]Lin Wei’s voice was very cold. “It’s still the same. What can happen?”
“Is this how you talk to your brother?” Lin Qingyuan frowned slightly. “Speak properly.”
“Then are you doing your job properly?” Lin Wei glared at him. “Do you have to be so ruthless?”
Lin Wei had always been in the military and did not know much about the family. She only knew after returning to the Lin family.
Now, the entire Lin family had become Lin Qingyuan’s plaything.
The other branches had all been removed from the main branch of the Lin family by Lin Qingyuan. Only the few of them were left in the entire Lin family. The others had either disappeared or died silently.
Even though she was used to the filth of big families, Lin Wei did not expect Lin Qingyuan to be so ruthless and not let anyone off.
Even if they were insensible children, Lin Qingyuan had forcefully sent them out of the country so that they could never return to China.
Lin Qingyuan’s eyes were filled with anger. “You’re telling me about doing something? Back then, when I was chased out of the Lin family by them, why didn’t you jump out and talk to the Lin family about their conscience?”
Lin Wei was stunned by Lin Qingyuan’s words. She did not know how to retort and could only look away, not wanting to argue with Lin Qingyuan.
“Say something.” Lin Qingyuan looked at Lin Wei. “My dear sister, we haven’t seen each other for so many years. Do you only criticize your brother? Or do you think those people who sent you to the military camp are closer to you, and me, your biological brother, is just a ruthless demon?”
Lin Wei frowned. “That’s not what I meant. Why are you misinterpreting? I just think you went a little overboard.”
Lin Qingyuan sneered. “If I don’t go overboard, how do you think you survived in the military camp? Do you really think that it’s a pure land?”
lin Wei suddenly looked up. “What do you mean?”
“What do you mean?” Lin Qingyuan threw a document in front of Lin Wei. “These people from the Lin family never wanted us to survive. They’ve always been waiting for an opportunity to kill us. Do you really think they’re good people?”
Lin Qingyuan and Lin Wei were born to the first wife of the eldest branch and had the first inheritance.
However, at that time, the main house was in chaos and their mother had just died. Who would take these two babies seriously? Who knew how many hands were waiting to kill them in their swaddling clothes?
Over the years, if not for Lin Qingyuan crawling out of hell himself, what awaited him would be a swamp that he would never be able to turn around.
As for Lin Wei,
the military camp seemed to be a safe place, but be it in combat or training, there were countless opportunities to kill her.
If not for Lin Qingyuan protecting her in secret, she would have died countless times as an adjutant.
Looking at the document in her hand, Lin Wei’s eyes were shocked. She looked up. “But…”
“No buts.” Lin Qingyuan looked into Lin Wei’s eyes. “What’s done is done. Either you don’t acknowledge me as your brother and we’ll cut ties from now on, or you stay in the Lin family and protect me. You know that the current Lin family is standing at the center of the storm. I don’t know how many people want my head.”
Lin Wei hesitated again and again, but in the end, she accepted her fate. “Where’s my room?”
Lin Qingyuan pointed at the backyard in satisfaction. “Over there. The butler will bring you over later. Good sister, you didn’t disappoint me.”
After Lin Wei left, Su Yueran came over and looked at Lin Qingyuan respectfully. “Young Master.”
Lin Qingyuan replied, “Do you think you’re useless?”
Su Yueran gritted her teeth. “I didn’t do my job well.”
“You can’t say that.” Lin Qingyuan sized up Su Yueran, who was standing in front of him.
Her figure was top-notch, and her face and temperament were one in a million. Back then, when he sent her to Beijing, Lin Qingyuan had high hopes.
Initially, Lin Qingyuan felt that Su Yueran was not doing her job well, but after seeing Xia Wanyuan in person, Lin Qingyuan suddenly felt that Su Yueran could not be blamed.
Not to mention Jun Shiling, even he could not help but be stunned by Xia Wanyuan.
That temperament was really unparalleled and unique. It was only natural that Su Yueran could not win.
Su Yueran was originally afraid that Lin Qingyuan would blame her, but when she really saw Lin Qingyuan’s matter-of-fact expression, Su Yueran felt very unconvinced.
Everyone felt that I am inferior to Xia Wanyuan. Why?
“Young Master, Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan are in Lin Xi now. This is our territory. Isn’t it much simpler to do many things?”
Lin Qingyuan glanced at Su Yueran. “Do you think you’re very smart?”
Su Yueran bowed in fear. “I’m sorry, I said the wrong thing.”
Lin Qingyuan waved his hand. “Alright, you can leave first. I’ll think of something.”
“Yes.”
Su Yueran left the backyard. Looking at Su Yueran’s back, Lin Qingyuan shook his head.
He had originally thought that the person he had spent a lot of money to nurture was a king. Who would have thought that she was just a piece of scrap metal? It was really useless.
Su Yueran left the backyard, the fear on her face instantly dissipating. How could she not tell that Lin Qingyuan was dissatisfied with her?
Thinking of Lin Qingyuan’s disdainful gaze, Su Yueran felt a sense of depression in her heart. She thought for a while and was still a little angry.
Hence, Su Yueran called the underground network in Linxi City. “Hello, help me find someone.”
——
Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan walked along the riverbank for about an hour before returning to their residence.
Jun Shiling had a property here. It was located in the suburbs by the mountains and rivers. The scenery was beautiful.
On the way up the mountain, he met a few acquaintances.
“Hey, isn’t this CEO Jun? CEO Jun and I are really fated.” When Jiang Kui saw Jun Shiling, hostility flashed across his eyes, but a smile appeared on his face. He waved at Jun Shiling.
Jun Shiling glanced at Jiang Kui. “CEO Jiang, you have quite a lot of family members.”
This sentence made the smile on Jiang Kui’s face dissipate.
Jiang Kui had only wanted to come over himself this time, but Zou Man had been pestering him, so Jiang Kui’s heart softened and he agreed.
It was unknown where Liu Tanyu had heard the news, but she brought Xiao Yu along and pestered him every day, saying that the child could not leave his father. Jiang Kui could not reject Liu Tanyu and could only bring them over.
In addition, Father Jiang had asked Jiang Yun to come and see the world.
In that case, didn’t he have a lot of family members?
That was the truth, but when Jun Shiling said this, Jiang Kui felt that Jun Shiling was mocking his family relationship.
He glared at Jun Shiling. “What’s wrong with having more family members? Do I want to have fewer family members like CEO Jun?”
These words were sharp and Xia Wanyuan was a little angry. She was about to say something when Jun Shiling stopped her.
Jun Shiling pulled Xia Wanyuan forward. When he brushed past Jiang Kui, Jun Shiling suddenly glanced at Xiao Yu beside Jiang Kui. “There’s nothing bad about it. The more children, the better.”
When Jun Shiling’s words landed in Jiang Kui’s ears, he felt uncomfortable.
He still wanted to argue with Jun Shiling, but Jiang Yun said, “Alright, stop embarrassing yourself. Don’t you think you’ve embarrassed yourself enough?”
Jiang Kui looked at Jiang Yun angrily. “What are you pretending for? Do you think I don’t know what you’re thinking? So what if you please Xia Wanyuan now? You still can’t marry into the Xia family. Give up.”
Jiang Yun looked at Jiang Kui coldly. “Look at you now. Do you still look like the young master of the Jiang family?”
“If I don’t look like it, do you?! That’s right. I guess you’ve long wanted to snatch the successor position of the Jiang family. How about I give it to you?”
“Unreasonable.” Jiang Yun could not be bothered to argue with a lunatic like Jiang Kui.
When she first returned to China, she already felt that Jiang Kui was very crazy. During this period of time, not only had Jiang Kui become even more extreme, but he could not even communicate.
Not long after Xia Wanyuan returned to the resort villa, guests came to look for her.
As Xia Wanyuan had expected, it was Jiang Yun.
Seeing Xia Wanyuan, Jiang Yun had long lost her initial hostility.
Xia Wanyuan knew what Jiang Yun was going to ask. “I’m not very sure about Xia Yu’s whereabouts.”
Jiang Yun frowned. “How can you not know? Did Xia Yu go on a very dangerous mission?”
Xia Wanyuan looked at Jiang Yun. “Actually, I’ve always been curious. What do you feel toward Xia Yu?”
“Nothing.” Jiang Yun’s expression was indifferent. “I’m just concerned about a friend.”
Xia Wanyuan sized up Jiang Yun’s expression. “No matter what your motive is, I thank you. But I really don’t know where Xia Yu is now. If he comes back, I’ll tell you.”
“Alright then, thank you.” Jiang Yun finally stopped thinking. She did not step into the door. “Then I’ll leave.”
“Okay.”
Watching Jiang Yun leave, Xia Wanyuan suddenly frowned.
She could tell that Jiang Yun seemed to really care about Xia Yu, but these two people?
The night deepened.
This night was very ordinary for most people in China, but the entire Lin Xi was brightly lit.
This was because almost everyone in the city was preparing for Lin Qingyuan’s inauguration ceremony and wedding.
Standing on the balcony and looking at the red light in the distance, Xia Wanyuan’s eyes were deep. “Such a beautiful light. What a pity.”
If it was for the sake of having a lover, this light would definitely be the most beautiful.
However, the two people who were forced together only made the light look a little resentful.
Jun Shiling hugged Xia Wanyuan from behind. “It’s cold outside. Go in and rest?”
“Have you found Wei Jin’s hiding place?”
Over the past few days, Jun Shiling had been receiving all sorts of news on his phone every day. Xia Wanyuan guessed that they should be related to the Wei family.
Jun Shiling nodded. “Don’t worry, I’m here.”
At this moment, there were cameras installed in every corner of the Wei family to ensure that no mosquito could escape the surveillance cameras.
When the guards changed shifts again, teams of people were handing in their work.
At this moment, in the surveillance room, all the cameras flickered for a second as if they had been disturbed by a signal.
Just as the surveillance staff was about to sound the alarm, the cameras returned to normal, as if the flash just now was just an illusion.
The staff scratched his head in confusion. “What’s going on? Am I seeing things?”
With that, the staff stared seriously at all the surveillance videos for a long time. After confirming that there was nothing unusual, he began to suspect that he had been dizzy just now.
“I watched this every day, but no one came to steal anything. They insisted on me watching it every day. Now, my eyes are starting to blur. I’ll drink some nutritional powder,” the staff muttered as he walked out with the cup.
