The Fake Heiress's Inner Thoughts Were Heard by Her Entire Family

After Jing Yi woke up, Lin Ruiqing and the others surrounded her with concern. Fortunately, apart from the injury on her arm, the rest were just minor flesh wounds.0

However, Lin Ruiqing was still very angry that the whole family had kept her in the dark and allowed Jing Yi to engage in such a dangerous task.0

Jing Zeqian and Jing Beicheng stood to the side, not daring to make a sound.0

Jing Zejun, seeing Lin Ruiqing's gaze, also felt a bit guilty.0

Seeing this, Jing Yi quickly spoke up, "Mom, it was me who asked Dad and the others to keep it from you..." Moreover, it was her carelessness that had given Wang Boqi the opportunity.0

【If we're going to talk about it, it's all my fault...】0

But this time, Lin Ruiqing wasn't so easy to placate. She looked stern and said, "Yi Yi, you should rest well and not talk." Her gaze shifted to the two men beside her, "You two, come out with me."0

It was better to give Jing Yi some peace in the hospital room, so any scolding should be done outside.0

Jing Yi could only give Jing Zeqian an apologetic and helpless look. She thought, if it weren't for her injuries, she would definitely be among those being scolded.0

Jing Zejun's eyes flickered with amusement as he tidied up Jing Yi's blanket, carefully examining the wound on her hand, which was so deep that it showed through to the outside.0

Jing Yi turned her head to see Jing Zejun's expression and laughed nonchalantly, "Jun Jun, it just looks scary, but it's really not that bad."0

【It's not like I didn't get anything out of it; Wang Boqi's injuries probably aren't much lighter than mine.】0

Jing Zejun glared at Jing Yi, who still seemed a bit smug, and was about to say something when he noticed someone standing in the corner.0

Shen Huaichu stood there silently, not uttering a word.0

Jing Zejun looked at Jing Yi, questioning with his eyes, what was this person doing here?0

Jing Yi's expression became a bit awkward. Jing Zejun, who understood immediately, smiled and said, "Yi Yi, are you hungry?"0

Jing Yi was bewildered, "Ah?" Jing Zejun slightly turned his head, glancing at Shen Huaichu, "I mean, should I go buy you something to eat?"0

Jing Yi felt even more awkward, "…Okay."0

【…Am I that obvious?】0

Jing Zejun: Very obvious.0

With only Jing Yi and Shen Huaichu left in the room, Jing Yi, who was initially a bit nervous, looked at Shen Huaichu standing quietly by the bed and laughed, "Why aren't you saying anything? Don't you have questions to ask me?"0

Shen Huaichu quickly glanced at her, meeting Jing Yi's watery eyes, her playful expression seemingly reminding him of something.0

His throat moved as he swallowed, and he opened his mouth, hesitating.0

"…Does it still hurt?"0

"…Is that all you want to ask?"0

He quietly sat beside Jing Yi, looking at her wound. If this incident hadn't happened, Shen Huaichu might have started questioning Jing Yi about the previous proposal of being her boyfriend.0

But now, all he wanted was for her to be okay.0

Shen Huaichu stared intently at Jing Yi, his deep eyes hiding an unspeakable emotion, no longer as indifferent and composed as usual.0

"Does it still hurt?" he asked again.0

When he saw Jing Yi, her sleeve was already stained red with blood from her wound. He didn't know how she had managed to fend off so many people by herself.0

Shen Huaichu felt a dull, heavy pain in his heart.0

Jing Yi was taken aback, her smile deepening.0

Her beautiful almond-shaped eyes curved into crescents, like brilliant fireworks, dazzling and captivating.0

"Shen Huaichu, I just had a feeling, and it seems we're quite compatible."0

"So, your previous question is approved!"0

Their gazes met in the air, and Shen Huaichu's heart pounded like a drum, the joy almost overwhelming him.0

He gently touched Jing Yi's hand, until he finally held it fully in his own.0

"Yi Yi…" he was about to say something.0

"Jing Yi Yi!"0

Jing Zeqian pushed the door open, his slightly loud voice deliberately trying to break the moment.0

Jing Yi instinctively pulled her hand back.0

【I'm not sneaking around like I'm in a secret relationship, why the secrecy?】0

Although she thought that, Jing Yi still felt a bit guilty. No matter how quickly she moved, Jing Zeqian still saw their clasped hands.0

He knew it! Leaving the two of them alone in the room was never a good idea!0

Jing Zeqian looked at Shen Huaichu with an increasingly displeased expression, "Mr. Shen, don't you have work to do at Huarui Group?" The hint to leave was clear.0

Had Shen Huaichu just started his new position and was already being sent away?0

He looked at his newly minted girlfriend, Jing Yi, who chuckled awkwardly, burying her face in the soft blanket, leaving only her lively eyes full of apology visible.0

Well, there was no one to back him up now, not even his own girlfriend.0

Shen Huaichu stood up, his lips curving slightly in a friendly manner, "There are indeed some tasks at the company, so I'll leave Yi Yi in your care, Second Brother."0

Before Jing Zeqian could object, he leaned closer to Jing Yi, gently tidying her stray hair with his long fingers, and softly said, "I'll be leaving now, I'll come to see you tomorrow."0

Jing Zeqian watched his retreating back with a huff, turning to see Jing Yi's flushed face, feeling even more annoyed.0

…0

Jing Beicheng and Jing Zeyou stood in the corridor, the atmosphere around them much more subdued compared to the lively scene in the ward.0

"You mean, the incident where Jun Jun went missing was orchestrated by the Wang family?" Jing Zeyou's expression was calm, but his heart was seething, "The specifics are still under investigation, but according to what Wang Boqi said, it's likely connected to the Wang family."0

He didn't think Wang Boqi was lying; that man always aimed to surpass him. If it were just a fabricated story, Wang Boqi would likely feel ashamed.0

Jing Beicheng's face darkened as he tightened his grip on the railing.0

"Mom, the incident happened so long ago, no one blames you, so why won't you come back with me to the country?"0

"If you want me to live a few more years, don't mention these things about going back."0

"Jun Jun, I'm sorry! Grandma is sorry for you!"0

"Jun Jun's disappearance might have been the Wang family's doing."0

Jing Beicheng's body trembled slightly, his eyes filled with unconcealed hatred and sorrow. Suddenly, his vision darkened, and he swayed, supported by Jing Zeyou who quickly stepped forward.0

"Dad! Are you okay?" His father's condition worried Jing Zeyou.0

Jing Beicheng closed his eyes, sitting down with Jing Zeyou's support. He began to speak, "Zeyou, I'm sorry for your grandmother, and I'm sorry for your mother, sorry for Jun Jun, I'm sorry for them!"0

If he hadn't been so headstrong in his youth, how could he have overlooked the Wang family's intentions? If it weren't for his negligence, how could the Wang family have taken advantage?0

How could his mother have carried the guilt for nearly twenty years?!0

Tears welled up in Jing Beicheng's eyes.0

This was the first time in Jing Zeyou's life that he had seen his father in such a state.0
