The elevator reached the office floor. Ji Xu’an took Jiang Jiang out of the elevator and unexpectedly ran into Fu Xiaoyin.
Fu Xiaoyin’s attention was first drawn to their hands, intertwined with each other, and then she noticed that the watch Jiang Jiang was wearing was the same model as Ji Xu’an’s.
The overwhelming dog food directly hit her, leaving her speechless.
When Ji Xu’an saw her, her eyebrows also furrowed almost imperceptibly.
“Manager Fu, what are you doing here?”
“Oh, oh, I came up to deliver something.” Fu Xiaoyin finally came back to her senses.
Actually, she had seen the photos posted by the receptionist in the small group, and came up specifically to gossip. Ji Xu’an and Jiang Jiang should have just arrived downstairs at that time, so Fu Xiaoyin reached this floor before them.
Ji Xu’an glanced at her empty hands, “Go back to work after you’re done delivering.”
Fu Xiaoyin rubbed her palms. She felt a little apprehensive when she saw Ji Xu’an’s cold expression, but she still tried her best to maintain her composure on the surface, “I remembered that I still have something to do, I’ll go down later.”
As she spoke, she secretly winked at Jiang Jiang, but the words she said were directed at Ji Xu’an.
“President Ji, why did you bring your sister again today?”
Fu Xiaoyin’s impression was still stuck on the fact that she had tried to help but was disliked instead.
Jiang Jiang and Ji Xu’an walked very quickly, and Fu Xiaoyin didn’t have time to explain clearly to them in person. Afterwards, she was severely punished by her family because of Ji Xu’an, and her parents ordered her not to go out. Fu Xiaoyin was a homebody for a while, and only just returned to the company yesterday.
However, just looking at the state of their interaction, it could be seen that their relationship was progressing smoothly, so Fu Xiaoyin’s words were mostly teasing.
Ji Xu’an seriously explained, “Not my sister, my fiancée.”
“We will hold an engagement banquet before the new year, and the invitations should be sent directly to the Fu family. You are welcome to attend.”
Fu Xiaoyin was stunned for a moment, and she subconsciously looked at Jiang Jiang.
Jiang Jiang had been standing obediently beside Ji Xu’an. After receiving Fu Xiaoyin’s inquiring gaze, she nodded very lightly at Fu Xiaoyin.
Only then did Fu Xiaoyin believe that Ji Xu’an and Jiang Jiang were really going to get engaged.
She was a little surprised at first, but then she thought that these two people were interested in each other, and were only one step away from laying everything out on the table. As long as someone took the first step, their relationship would undergo a qualitative leap.
Now it seemed that they should have cleared up all the misunderstandings.
Fu Xiaoyin’s mood was very complicated, with a few feelings of loss mixed in with her relief, but she didn’t remain silent for long, and soon nodded with a smile.
“Okay, I will definitely go then!”
Ji Xu’an was slightly relieved, “Okay.”
Seeing that she still seemed to be guarding against herself, Fu Xiaoyin quickly flattered her a few more times, “Actually, I saw it a long time ago, President Ji, you and Miss Xie are a match made in heaven. The two of you together are a perfect match, a match made in heaven.”
Fu Xiaoyin thought that Ji Xu’an would be very happy to hear this, but she didn’t expect Ji Xu’an’s face to be a little ugly. Fu Xiaoyin looked at Jiang Jiang in confusion, and then found that Jiang Jiang’s expression was also very strange.
What was going on with these two wives?
Did I say something wrong?
In the past, Ji Xu’an would indeed have been very happy, but since learning the “truth”, she couldn’t bear to hear the words “match made in heaven” anymore. Even though she knew that Fu Xiaoyin probably didn’t have any malicious intent, Ji Xu’an still felt that she was being subtly mocked.
She comforted herself in her heart, it didn’t matter, the one destined for Xiaoyuan was the Xie Xiao in the story, not my Jiang Jiang.
Even if these two people looked exactly the same, they were not the same person.
So I don’t need to worry too much…
Ji Xu’an hadn’t finished breathing a sigh of relief, and she didn’t know what she thought of, but her expression tightened again.
Wait?!
Jiang Jiang looked exactly like the original Xie Xiao, and Xie Xiao was the wife arranged for Xiaoyuan by “heaven”, and Jiang Jiang was suspected of having a betrothed before…
Ji Xu’an connected these known conditions together, and came to a conclusion that she was very unwilling to accept.
Would Jiang Jiang’s betrothed also have some connection with Xiaoyuan?
For example, would he look a lot like Xiaoyuan?
Thinking of this, Ji Xu’an couldn’t help but glance at Jiang Jiang.
Jiang Jiang felt uneasy being watched by Ji Xu’an. She felt that Ji Xu’an seemed to have guessed something, but Ji Xu’an didn’t ask any more questions, and even after returning to the office, Ji Xu’an didn’t bring up this topic again.
She let Jiang Jiang sit on the sofa, and she bent down to pick up a cup of milk tea from the table and handed it to Jiang Jiang, “I just had someone buy it, it’s still hot.”
The straw was already inserted. Jiang Jiang took it and took a sip. The sweet taste burst in her mouth, and she licked her lips subconsciously, and the tension in her heart was diluted a lot.
“Sister, I…”
“I know what you want to ask.” Ji Xu’an took over the conversation, “There is some information here, you will know after reading it.”
She turned and walked to the desk, took out one of the documents from a pile of documents on the table, and then walked to Jiang Jiang again, reaching out and handing her the document.
Jiang Jiang took it and looked at it. It turned out to be a report about Liang Junsheng, which was recorded in detail and fully explained the cause of Liang Junsheng’s death.
The first thing Jiang Jiang looked at was the time of death.
Probably a few minutes after she received the message from Ji Xu’an, Liang Junsheng cut his carotid artery with a fruit knife he had hidden and committed suicide.
In fact, before this, he had attempted suicide several times, but he was discovered in time and rescued.
Only this time, for some reason, no one noticed it until Liang Junsheng’s body was cold, and then the caregiver discovered it.
Jiang Jiang guessed that perhaps because Zheng Zhouzhou had been hiding it very well before, she was the protagonist of the story, and as long as she intended to use Liang Junsheng to bring herself down, Liang Junsheng was useful, so “Heaven” would help him to turn danger into safety again and again.
Until this time, even Zheng Zhouzhou herself was unable to protect herself, and Liang Junsheng, this cannon fodder, naturally lost his umbrella of protection.
Jiang Jiang breathed out and continued to read.
The report described Liang Junsheng’s death in great detail, saying that his neck was bloody, and the blood that spurted out soaked the sheets. After he stopped breathing, his eyes were still wide open, and his expression was extremely hideous.
Jiang Jiang didn’t feel much discomfort in her heart. As long as she thought of the kittens that were abused and killed by Liang Junsheng, she only felt relieved.
When Liang Junsheng was abusing cats, did he ever think that one day, he would also use similar methods to take his own life?
Ji Xu’an was worried that Jiang Jiang would be scared, and had been paying attention to her reaction, but until all the pages of the report were turned over, Jiang Jiang’s expression didn’t change much.
Ji Xu’an breathed a sigh of relief. She didn’t think Jiang Jiang was cruel, but only rejoiced that Jiang Jiang hadn’t been frightened.
“Don’t think too much, this person will no longer have any impact on you in the future.”
Jiang Jiang put down the report, “Well, Sister, don’t worry, I will just pretend that this person doesn’t exist in the future.”
She looked like she was really not afraid, and her mood was not affected at all, and she drank several more sips of milk tea.
While Ji Xu’an was relieved, another question emerged in her mind, what kind of life did Jiang Jiang live before?
Besides being disgusted with Liang Junsheng, was her understatement also because she was already used to such events?
Ji Xu’an wanted to understand Jiang Jiang very much, and wanted to know what kind of people and things she had experienced?
But Jiang Jiang had already said that she didn’t remember.
Ji Xu’an could only guess at her possible past through some of Jiang Jiang’s reactions, such as her fiancé.
Should still be a fiancé, right?
Ji Xu’an thought absentmindedly.
She and Jiang Jiang each occupied a place. She sat at the desk to handle work, while Jiang Jiang was typing words at the coffee table.
Ji Xu’an would look up at Jiang Jiang every few minutes while reading the documents. Her mind was full of things related to Jiang Jiang, and she couldn’t concentrate on her work at all.
Jiang Jiang seemed to be very close to her grandmother from the beginning, and she had repeatedly emphasized in front of her that her love and respect for her grandmother was completely sincere.
Doesn’t this indicate that in Jiang Jiang’s past life, there was also an elder who was very similar to my grandmother?
Was it her grandmother?
As Ji Xu’an thought about it, she suddenly remembered something that happened a long time ago.
That was at the old Ji family mansion, when she and Jiang Jiang first met. She walked in from outside the gate, while Jiang Jiang was standing on the first floor at the corner of the first floor. The moment their eyes met, she clearly saw shock in Jiang Jiang’s eyes.
Jiang Jiang seemed to mutter something, but unfortunately, Ji Xu’an didn’t hear it clearly because the distance was too far.
She didn’t think much about it at the time, but now looking back, Ji Xu’an noticed something was wrong.
If it was the real Xie Xiao, she could explain her strange reaction by saying that she might have seen herself before, but Jiang Jiang was not Xie Xiao.
Logically speaking, she should have never seen Ji Xu’an.
Then why did she show shock when she saw me for the first time?
After thinking about it, Ji Xu’an could only come up with one possibility, and that was that Jiang Jiang might have seen her before.
Or rather, she had seen someone who looked very similar to her.
So when she suddenly saw someone she knew in a different time and space, Jiang Jiang would show such an out-of-control reaction.
Ji Xu’an’s heart sank straight down. If her guess was true, then another guess was probably also true.
Was the person Jiang Jiang was betrothed to really Xiaoyuan from another time and space?
Ji Xu’an had forgotten what Jiang Jiang’s reaction was when she saw Ji Heyuan, otherwise she could further verify her guess.
But even so, Ji Xu’an couldn’t help but continue to think along her own lines.
So Jiang Jiang cared about Xiaoyuan because of that fiancé who looked similar to Xiaoyuan?
If two different worlds really had so many similarities, then was Jiang Jiang’s fiancé’s family also more powerful than Jiang Jiang’s family?
Ji Xu’an thought that perhaps Jiang Jiang was also forced. In the past, there were many oppressions against women, and marriage matters could only be decided by parents. She doesn’t have the right to make her own decisions?
So Jiang Jiang shouldn’t like her fiancé that much, but her attitude towards Xiaoyuan…
Ji Xu’an put down the signing pen in her hand irritably. She closed her eyes and temporarily suppressed the matter of the fiancé.
It wasn’t certain whether this person existed or not, and she shouldn’t add to her troubles.
Compared to this, she should consider other things.
Jiang Jiang came here and replaced Xie Xiao, so where did the real Xie Xiao go?
Was it possible that she had gone to Jiang Jiang’s time and space and replaced Jiang Jiang’s identity?
Was Jiang Jiang aware of this?
Ji Xu’an’s gaze fell on Jiang Jiang again. From her angle, she could clearly see Jiang Jiang’s profile. The other person was looking at the computer screen intently, and had no idea how conflicted Ji Xu’an was in her heart.
Jiang Jiang was undoubtedly a very smart girl. She could adapt to this world at the fastest speed without letting people discover any flaws. Admittedly, this was also related to the fact that everyone would not think in this direction at all, but Ji Xu’an still couldn’t deny Jiang Jiang’s learning ability and calm attitude.
She turned the signing pen in her hand, and scenes from the past began to play in her mind.
Jiang Jiang was concentrating on writing the latest chapter of her novel when she suddenly heard Ji Xu’an, who was not far away, ask:
“Jiang Jiang, when did you come here?”
Jiang Jiang sighed in her heart. She wasn’t completely unaware of Ji Xu’an’s gaze on her, and she understood that Ji Xu’an would ask her this question sooner or later.
Jiang Jiang saved the newly written content, then closed the computer and turned to look at Ji Xu’an, “Ten days before I arrived at the Ji family.”
At that time…
Ji Xu’an was shocked in her heart, and she thought of those words that Fang Xun Chun said.
Did Fang Xun Chun know something?
For example, that Jiang Jiang would replace Xie Xiao sooner or later?!
