Chapter 295: Chapter 290 Car Accident
And on the other side,
Qu Rong followed closely behind Qin Jiangsheng, feeling very anxious, "Young Master Qin, do you have a grudge against this guy?"
Not far away, a group of thugs encircled Xu Rang, beating and kicking him, and the wailing never stopped.
He chuckled lightly, "Not at all, he just got out of the detention center, I’m simply ’welcoming’ him."
Qu Rong: "..."
A ’welcoming’ to death?
It hurt him just to watch.
But these guys really had nothing to do with Qin Jiangsheng; he was just there to watch the show. As for why Xu Rang was getting beaten up, it was because he had developed a gambling addiction and had taken high-interest loans instead of telling his family, sinking deeper and deeper into debt.
He probably wanted to involve Ji Tian somehow and then have the Ji family bail him out on that account.
In a past life, it was this bastard who had ruined Ji Tian, so not getting rid of him beforehand left him feeling uneasy.
"After a while, you should go abroad," Qin Jiangsheng suddenly said.
"Huh? Why?"
"Isn’t your sister getting treatment over there? She needs someone to take care of her for this period, and I’ll help you leave the organization."
Qu Rong frowned and shook his head in disagreement, "That won’t do. I can’t let you take risks with your life. Once we gather all the evidence, I’ll bring my sister back and work hard to repay your money."
"Suit yourself."
He turned and walked away, seemingly uninterested in Xu Rang who was lying there like a dead dog.
But the next day, the news that Xu Rang had been beaten to death caught him a bit off guard.
He had thought those debt collectors would at most leave a man crippled, but it turned out the man died from the injuries because he hadn’t received timely medical attention, out in the wilderness.
That place wasn’t far from where he had died in a previous life. Qin Jiangsheng thought it was a shame; he should have thrown him in that dilapidated house to experience the fear of death.
The social club also took a break.
Ji Weinan invited his buddies out for the first time.
Even Gong Yu agreed to go out, and after several months, they could finally visit Heavenly again to enjoy themselves.
Their group of three was missing one person, Bai Tingyu, who had gradually drifted away over the past few months.
Because of this Qu Jingyou sighed, "Ah, I don’t even know how Brother Yu is doing. I feel like it’s been ages since I’ve seen him."
Ji Weinan frowned in displeasure, "Qu Jingyou, whose brother are you? We two grew up together like real brothers!"
Qu Jingyou touched his nose, and seeing that Ji Weinan wanted to argue with him further, quickly surrendered, "Alright, alright, you and I are the best, I’ll give you that. You even have to compete over this."
Ji Weinan smiled, contented.
Great, of the original four brothers, two were still on his side. He wasn’t at a loss.
Then he turned to Gong Yu, curious, "Yu, how’s it going with your fiancée?"
Gong Yu came to his senses and elegantly had a sip of his drink, "We haven’t been in touch much. Family-arranged marriages are all like this; where can there be true feelings?"
Ji Weinan looked at him with sympathy, "Well, I hope you can find true love in the future."
Gong Yu smiled but didn’t respond.
True love?
He had lost that long ago.
A pang of pain welled up inside him, and his headache got worse.
A faint blush appeared on his pale cheeks as he looked into the distance, his expression distant, "Atian?"
Ji Weinan followed his gaze and quickly waved, "Little sister, this way."
Ji Tian approached with Jian Chuyi, and Qin Jiangsheng was following behind them.
Jian Chuyi puffed up her cheeks, clearly unhappy.
Qu Jingyou curiously looked at her, "What’s wrong with Chuyi?"
Ji Tian sat down and grabbed a glass of iced fruit juice to drink, "Ask her yourself."
At the right moment, Qin Jiangsheng spoke up, "Careful with the cold."
"Qin Jiangsheng, you have to meddle in this too?" Ji Tian was also displeased.
She felt that recently someone was restricting her freedom.
Ji Weinan puffed out his chest, glaring resentfully at Qin Jiangsheng, "What business is it of yours what my sister drinks?"
Qin Jiangsheng merely gave him a nonchalant look, and Ji Weinan felt the presence of his older brother’s authority wash over him.
His face stiffened, and with a forced chuckle, he turned to Ji Tian, "Drink less of the cold stuff, I won’t care if you get a stomachache later."
Ji Tian: "..."
Can’t you be a little more dignified?
Gong Yu sat in the shadows, averting his eyes, no longer looking at Ji Tian.
From the moment he got engaged, he lost all his rights.
But why was it so heartbreakingly sad? It was as if he had lost a treasure he had long coveted, only for it to slip through his fingers and into the embrace of another.
All the festivities around him seemed irrelevant, and he zoned out, refusing to look at them.
Jian Chuyi took the microphone and, for himself, chose a song called "Listen to the Sad Love Song," then stubbornly dragged Ji Tian into a duet.
The group partied at Heavenly until four in the afternoon before they reluctantly headed home.
Once they stepped outside, they saw Tang Yu hastily approaching, pulling a drunken Jian Chuyi along, shaking as she held up a bunch of locks, her voice trembling, "Why did you send me so many locks? And there are some at home I couldn’t carry, altogether they must weigh three hundred pounds, what are you trying to do?"
Jian Chuyi was sobered up halfway by now, confirming carefully, "Tang Yu?"
She giggled foolishly with joy, "What else, of course, it’s to lock you..."
Before she could finish, she beautifully passed out.
Everyone: "..."
"Lock up what?! Finish your sentence!"
Who understands the frustration of a statement cut off halfway?
Ji Tian gave him a sympathetic look, "How about you ask her tomorrow? I’ll take her home first."
Tang Yu: "...Unlucky!"
The group parted ways at the door.
Quan Jingyou looked at Gong Yu, "Yu, shall I give you a ride back?"
Gong Yu shook his head, "No need, I can walk on my own."
After saying that, he walked forward. When he reached the curb, he saw Ji Tian supporting Jian Chuyi as they walked away.
At that moment, he thought he saw Ji Tian dressed in prisoner’s clothes, meeting him through the visiting room of the jail.
He took a few steps ahead, and the jarring sound of car horns filled the air.
Then came Quan Jingyou’s heart-wrenching shout, "Yu!"
When he was sent flying by the car, he wasn’t afraid of death, but he felt a sense of relief.
Those fragmented dreams he had never been able to make sense of finally connected into one story.
Like glimpsing at fleeting scenes, he witnessed as an observer the rise and fall of the Ji Family, and faced the tragic destiny each member struggled with but could not escape.
He was both fortunate and unfortunate.
He preserved the Gong Family but lost the person he loved.
Ji Tian’s life and death.
The words Ji Tian said to him, the bank card she had saved for many years that she gave to him, asking him to find Qin Jiangsheng, to help the Ji Family rise from the ashes.
Sadly, she never lived to see the Ji Family’s resurgence.
Later, the Ji Family did rise again, with Qin Jiangsheng at its peak. After that, he too died.
Was it a love martyrdom?
Such a conclusion... really sucks.
He wished to be brave just once, for the regrets in his heart.
Because Ji Tian had said, "In the next life, we should be our own protagonists, not to be led by the nose anymore."
Gong Yu wished upon his life for a wish:
That the Ji Tian of the next life wouldn’t have to live in this devouring world, and he didn’t want to be the main character but just the supporting role who could protect her.
