After a tragic death and rebirth, the iceberg president turned crazy

"So what? No matter if he and I are together or not, I will always be his friend. Is it wrong for me to care about my friends? A cold-blooded person like you can't understand that at all!"

After Lin Man finished speaking, she realized that she was very emotional, but as long as she thought that Ji Ze might have suffered all this because of her, she couldn't calm down at all.

"Very good." Pei Yan said.

The next moment, before Lin Man could speak, Pei Yan hung up the phone.

Hearing the beeping sound coming from her ears, Lin Man felt a chill in her heart. She tapped her head lightly with the hand holding the examination report. What was going on? She had clearly repeated in her mind many times not to anger Pei Yan, but she still couldn't control herself.

After a while, Pei Yan called back, "If you want to know what happened, come to my house."

After Pei Yan hung up the phone, an address quickly popped up on Lin Man's phone. She tightly held the examination report in her hand and suddenly felt that Pei Yan's attitude towards her had subtly changed since Ji Ze came back, from giving her space to gradually pressing her step by step.

Lin Man finally went.

Pei Yan didn't want to tell her what happened, but he wanted her to go no matter what happened. In that case, why was she still struggling?

A villa in the southern suburbs.

As soon as she pressed the doorbell, Pei Yan had already opened the door.

"I'm here, it's time for you to fulfill your promise."

Pei Yan glanced at Lin Man and threw an apron on her. "Before that, please fulfill your promise first."

Looking at the brand new apron, Lin Man remembered that she still owed Pei Yan a meal. She had only said this to please Pei Yan, but she didn't expect that he would actually want to eat the meal she cooked.

"Aren't you afraid that I will poison you to death?"

"Then let's die together." Pei Yan said lightly.

"Mad man." Lin Man glanced at him and walked into the kitchen. She put on an apron and took a tomato from the refrigerator. Her back tensed as she felt the gaze fixed on her. "Why are you looking at me?"

"What do you think?" Pei Yan leaned against the door, his dark eyes fixed on Lin Man.

After a while, Lin Man put down the half-cut tomato and said, "Don't look at me. I'm afraid I might cut my hand if I'm not careful."

Pei Yan glanced at Lin Man, turned around and walked out. After Lin Man had been busy in the kitchen for half an hour, she finally brought out a bowl of noodles.

"You just give me this to eat?" Pei Yan stared at the bowl of noodles.

Lin Man put the noodles on the table and didn't think there was anything wrong. "You only said that you wanted me to make it myself, but you didn't say what to eat. And you should tell me now, Pei Yan, don't tell me that this matter has anything to do with you?"

Pei Yan picked up the soup spoon and drank a few sips of soup.

The next moment, Lin Man's waist tightened, and Pei Yan's lips kissed her, pouring all the soup in his mouth into Lin Man's mouth.

He chuckled and said, "Is it delicious?"

Lin Man frowned, half-lying on the ground, holding his chest and retching.

"Did you beat the salt seller to death?"

Pei Yan looked at Lin Man who was squatting on the ground and coughing non-stop, and drank a few mouthfuls of soup slowly. It was really hard to drink, but he still ate half a bowl.

After finishing half a bowl of noodles, Pei Yan stood up to leave, but Lin Man reached out and grabbed him, "Where are you going?"

"You want me to stay?"

of course not.

Lin Man felt her brain was becoming increasingly dull. After thinking for a long time, she let go of Pei Yan's hand and said, "Don't drive."

"What's in the noodles?"

"Sleeping pills..."

Pei Yan was suddenly so angry that he laughed, "You have improved. You know how to add salt."

Pei Yan was extremely sensitive to smells. He knew that Lin Man would not cook for him obediently, so he checked it before eating, but the strange smell of sleeping pills was masked by the salt.

Lin Man's body began to sway. Pei Yan watched her fall to the ground, so he held her up and threw her on the bed.

The next day.

Lin Man felt a splitting headache. She opened her eyes slightly, looked at the clock on the wall, immediately threw off the quilt and stood up, only to find that the room was already empty.

Lin Man adjusted her breathing slightly and called Pei Yan, but at this moment the doorbell rang. She pushed open the door and saw He Sheng, "You came at the right time. He still owes me an explanation."

"Yes, Mr. Pei went to attend an auction in San Francisco and has already left on the earliest flight."

Listening to his words, Lin Man was about to speak, but saw He Sheng took out a document, "This is what President Pei asked me to give you. It said it was... the reward for the kiss last night."

He Sheng's words made Lin Man look up. He quickly said, "Don't get excited. I'm just conveying President Pei's meaning. If you have anything to say, you might as well read this document first. The information you want to know is all in it."

Lin Man didn't look at the document in her hand. She suddenly remembered Ji Ze's expression when he mentioned Ruan Rou, and her face turned cold. "Did Ruan Rou do it?"

He Sheng did not hide it from Lin Man, "It was...Miss Ruan who did it. Of course, Madam Ji also contributed a lot."

"Are you lying to me? What's with the medical report on Ji Ze? Could Ruan Rou have done it alone? Tell me the truth, is Pei Yan also involved in this matter? Is it related to him? Otherwise, how could a living person like Ji Ze disappear? How could two weak women make Ji Ze disappear for such a long time without any news?"

"Oh, Miss Lin, this matter has nothing to do with President Pei. The two weak women you mentioned, one is the one who takes care of Madam Ji, and the other is President Ji's biological mother. They are not ordinary people. In other words, you know what kind of person President Ji is. That's his mother. Madam Ji wants to educate her son. Can President Ji fight back?"

"I'm going to say something I shouldn't say. The hospital's medical reports all involve patient privacy. You are neither Mr. Ji's relative nor his legal representative. Why would the hospital give you this medical report? Don't you find it strange that a chief doctor told you in such detail?"

He Sheng almost said it directly, that it was Ji Ze's self-directed and self-acted means to gain sympathy. Of course, the injury might be real.

Unexpectedly, the next second, Lin Man looked at him and asked, "How do you know what the doctor told me? Are you following me?"

Lin Man's words made He Sheng's eyebrows twitch, and he almost wanted to give Lin Man a thumbs up. You are really not smart when you should be smart, and you are smart when you shouldn't be smart.

He Sheng did not deny it. "Ms. Lin, you also know how President Pei feels about you now. Since he said he doesn't want to let go, we, as his subordinates, naturally have to pay more attention."

He Sheng did not deny that he sent someone to follow Lin Man, but he denied that it was Pei Yan who gave the order. Lin Man sneered at He Sheng, who was like an old fox, and walked out directly with the documents he gave her.

"Ms. Lin, I have found out that Ruan Rou came to Hai City the day after President Ji returned to China. Every month, she goes to the luxury store in Tiangangwan in the name of purchasing medicine for Madam Ji. The old lady doesn't like luxury, so she has never worn the things she bought. She has a younger sister who is still studying. President Ji gives the old lady living expenses every month, but the old lady gives all these cards to Ruan Rou."

"Where is she?"

After getting the address, Lin Man immediately went to Tiangangwan and stopped Ruan Rou in a jewelry store. Lin Man remembered what the doctor said, and her heart surged. She slapped Ruan Rou in the face. With a snap, she covered her face and looked at Lin Man in disbelief. Her tone was timid and her eyes were wet. "Ms. Lin, what are you doing..."

Lin Man threw the document given by He Sheng directly in her face.

"Are you still human? No one has wronged you. You eat, wear and use the best. Don't you think you are being cruel to Ji Ze? You said you like him. Is this how you love him?"

Lin Man's words startled Ruan Rou. Suddenly, she covered her face and laughed softly. "It's true that no one has wronged me, because you are the one who has wronged him the most! Lin Man, how dare you say that to me? He was controlled by Jiang Xuzhi in Italy because of you. I just whispered a little in front of the old lady. If his mother wants to teach him a lesson, can I stop her? Do you think he is the only one with injuries?"

Ruan Rou rolled up her sleeves! "Living with that insane old woman, everyone would have injuries on their body. You make a fuss over a minor injury. You are indeed a young lady who has never suffered."

"What were you doing when he was being tortured by that crazy old woman in Italy? You and Pei Yan were lying in the same hospital, flirting with each other, and your hand was right there with him. He helped you get investment, and you and he went to the amusement park and behaved intimately. You kissed on the street, and all these photos were taken and sent back to Italy."

"He was reluctant to let go because of you, but you turned around and threw yourself into Pei Yan's arms just a few days after he disappeared. While you were enjoying the resources Pei Yan brought you, you completely forgot about Ji Ze who was still struggling in Italy. Lin Man, how dare you blame me?"

Ruan Rou's cowardice disappeared completely, and she looked directly at Lin Man with sharp eyes.

Lin Man heard how much pain Ji Ze had suffered, but he came back without saying a word.

Lin Man's heart stagnated, and the next moment she grabbed Ruan Rou's hair, "Even if this is the case, don't even think about escaping. You are an accomplice. You clearly had the opportunity to contact the outside world, but you did nothing! You are also the murderer. It was you and Jiang Xuzhi who colluded with each other to harm Ji Ze. I'm going to call the police, and you can expect to go to jail!"

Lin Man picked up the documents on the ground. The next moment, Ruan Rou suddenly pounced on her and started fighting with Lin Man. The two of them knocked over many pieces of jewelry in the store. Finally, the clerk called the police.

Lin Man and Ruan Rou both had bruises on their faces. "Which one is Lin Man?"

"It's me." As Lin Man spoke, she pulled the wound on her face and gasped.

"Someone's here to bail you out. You can go now."

When Lin Man left, Ruan Rou was still looking at her with hatred.

Lin Man was still curious about who came to bail her out, and the next moment, Ji Ze appeared in front of her, "Manman, are you okay?" Ji Ze frowned and looked at her injuries worriedly, with a fierce look in his eyes.

It would be a lie to say that she was fine. Ruan Rou's strength was not as soft as she looked. "I didn't suffer any loss. I punched her several times."

Several pieces of jewelry in the luxury store were broken. After paying the money, they could be bailed out. When Lin Man left, she saw Ruan Rou had not left yet. Ji Ze did not even look at Ruan Rou, his eyes were on Lin Man. He said helplessly, "Why are you learning to fight?"

"I'm so angry."

After Lin Man finished speaking, Ji Ze's eyes suddenly became deep, and she quickly added, "We are friends, always will be. This is your medical report, and the doctor asked you to go back for regular checkups.

Lin Man handed the medical report to Ji Ze, but he did not take it. Ji Ze looked at Lin Man and suddenly took her hand, "Come with me to a place."

While Lin Man was hesitating, Ji Ze had already brought her to the rooftop of Ji's. The last time she came here was during the day, but now at night she realized that she could see all the night scenes of Haishi from here, and the magnificent Tiangang Bay was visible at a glance. "Why are you here again? It's windy here."

The wind lifted up Lin Man's skirt. Ji Ze stood facing the wind, then suddenly turned around and put his hands seriously on Lin Man's shoulders. "Man Man, this is where all my dreams began. I was really sad when you broke up with me in the hospital that day, but it's okay. It was my fault. I left for so long without any news, leaving you alone in this troubled place. It's okay for you to break up with me, because I will get you back again."

"Jize, why do you have to..."

The light shone into Ji Ze's pupils, making his originally dark eyes glow.

The neon lights on the rooftop suddenly lit up! The elegant pianist was sitting there playing music slowly, the wind blew his hat back and forth, the violin played non-stop, and the soothing music seemed to blow Lin Man's heartstrings, gently pulling at her heart.

Ji Ze took out a gift box from his arms and slowly opened it with the dim candlelight. Inside was a sparkling crown.

"Happy birthday, Manman."

Under the rooftop, He Sheng looked at the location in his hand, "Boss Pei, this is the right place. You went to San Francisco specifically to buy this gift for Miss Lin. She will definitely like it very much."

Pei Yan stood under the street light, the light and shadow shining on his hair. He held a black coat in his hand. He had already changed into a new set of clothes, a well-cut classic black suit. His high-end look showed, making his temperament even more unapproachable.

He Sheng was a little anxious as he couldn't find anyone for a long time.

Pei Yan lit a cigarette. His gloomy face made it difficult to detect his thoughts. Suddenly, a light flashed on the rooftop. Pei Yan looked up, his pupils tightened, and his sharp body exuded a dangerous aura.

On the rooftop, Ji Ze went forward and hugged Lin Man. He was tall, and looking from downstairs, it seemed as if Lin Man was completely trapped in his arms.

"Mr. Pei..." He Sheng's tone was a little flustered.

He raised his head and said, "There might be some misunderstanding here. Do you need me to call Miss Lin?"

Pei Yan didn't say anything, his dark eyes were fixed on the two figures on the rooftop.

Taking out the gift box from his arms, his hand stroked the diamond ring, and suddenly he chuckled, but there was no warmth in his eyes.

Under He Sheng's surprised gaze, he raised his hand lightly and threw the priceless diamond ring casually into the flowers. There was no trace of nostalgia on his expression as he turned and left.
