Chapter 026: The Sky and the Earth

After get off work, Ji Xinyao wandered the streets alone like a lonely soul.

Because he was too immersed in those thoughts, he accidentally bumped into a pedestrian passing by in a hurry, and the heel of his shoe sank directly into the gap between the stone bricks. He screamed and fell backward uncontrollably.

Instinctively, she stretched out her hand to catch something floating in the air, but found nothing. The person who was hit quickly helped her before she was about to fall embarrassingly.

"Thank you." Ji Xinyao hurriedly pulled the heel out of the gap between the stone bricks, raised her head and smiled apologetically at the man: "I didn't hurt you, did I? Sorry, I didn't notice anyone just now..."

The words stopped abruptly when she saw the man's face. Under the dim street light, she blinked in surprise.

The man looked at her indifferently, moved his tight lips slightly, and said two words flatly: "It's okay."

At the same time, he took back his hand, turned around and walked away quickly.

Ji Xinyao turned her head and looked at the man's back in astonishment. She felt that he looked familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen him before.

This man had dark skin and black clothes, which made him look very domineering. She frowned and looked suspiciously at the figure disappearing into the night.

That figure seemed familiar. Although he had a chilling air, she remembered that when she raised her head and saw his eyes, she could clearly feel a hint of surprise in his eyes. He knew her!

I returned home with questions in my mind. As soon as I entered the door, I was startled by the mess in the house. I suddenly looked at Ji Xiuli who was cleaning up the mess on the floor: "What happened?"

Ji Xiuli pursed her lips and said nothing, just quietly packing up the damaged furniture little by little. She walked quickly into the bedroom and saw that the bedroom had been thoroughly searched, but the bank card and passbook in the cabinet were still there.

She had cash but it was not missing at all. She frowned. It seemed that the person who broke into the house was not a thief. She couldn't help but turned around and looked at the silent Ji Xiuli: "What's going on?"

"I went to the library in the afternoon, and it was like this when I came back." He walked in, holding a crystal necklace in his hand: "I think this is what they are looking for."

That necklace was a relic of Ji Xinyao's mother. It was something that the Ji family had always wanted to find. Ji Xinyao never knew what was so special about this necklace, but her mother had given it to her before she died and told her to take good care of it.

custody.

She was stunned, glanced at the necklace, and then looked at the coldness in Ji Xiuli's eyes: "What do you mean..."

"Have the Ji family found G City?" Ji Xiuli squinted at her: "When I came back, I happened to see Ji Chengcheng driving away in the parking lot outside the community. How could she find this place?"

Ji Xinyao groaned, but didn't say anything.

"Did Ji Chengcheng go to your company to look for you? Did she come to trouble you again?!" Seeing her expression, Ji Xiuli suddenly strode forward and looked straight into her eyes.

Helpless: "Did she do anything to you?"

"Xiu Li, I am no longer the Ji Xinyao I used to be. What can she do to me in public?" She raised her eyes, smiled broadly, raised her hand to take the necklace, and then glanced around.

It was a mess: "We can no longer live here, we have to move out as soon as possible."

"Are we leaving G City?"
