In the golden cage

Ji Shaoting went so far this way, so far that he crossed the entire Eurasian plate, and there was a seven-hour time difference with Li Chen, so his day became his night.

Ji Shaoting didn't fly back to his hometown in the north first, because he expected that the first thing Li Chen would do after he found out that he left would be to go to his hometown to look for him.Ji Shaoting felt that he would never know another person like he knew Li Chen in this life, because he was hurt too deeply, so he knew his next second from this second.

And his prediction was indeed right. When he was about to check in and board the plane, Li Chen was driving to the airport in the next city.

He missed the latest flight to Ji Shaoting's hometown, and he needs to change airports to catch Ji Shaoting back within today—if Ji Shaoting escapes home.

Li Chen dialed Ji Linzhang's number for the first time in the car.

Contradictory to say, he often regards himself as Ji Shaoting's husband, but he has never really gotten along with Ji Shaoting's family; he knows better than anyone else how important family is to Ji Shaoting, but he never wants to integrate into it.

Any kind of group is fine, Li Chen always wanders out like a stranger, closing his heart, even if Ji Shaoting opened the door to him, he is unwilling to go in.

He just wanted to drag Ji Shaoting out, and drag him to wander in the dark night with him.

It is clear that marriage should be a good relationship between two surnames, but to him it is a pure relationship between two people.Sometimes he even rejects his own mother thousands of miles away, wishing only him and Ji Shaoting in this world.

Ji Linzhang was connected when the connection sound reached the second sound, and the first sentence was to confirm with him: "Is Tingting gone?"

Li Chen immediately became angry: "Don't you know if he left or not?!"

"I know he will leave," Ji Linzhang replied calmly, unmoved by Li Chen's anger, "but I don't know when he will leave. This is his own decision, and there is no need to ask for my consent."

These words were so high-sounding that Li Chen felt that he was being compared to him for no reason, but he didn't know where he was being compared. He just asked more sharply: "You are his brother, how can he go Where, don't you care?"

"Come on," Ji Linzhang's tone was still bright, "So Mr. Li, I hope we can settle the matter between you and him as soon as possible—is it a peaceful divorce, or should we hire a lawyer?"

Li Chen almost stopped on the highway.

"Ji Linzhang," he called him by his first name, "I don't, can, can, divorce, marry Ji Shaoting."

Ji Linzhang replied unhurriedly: "That's it, then it seems that I have to see the court."

"Is this how your family repays kindness and revenge?" Li Chen moved out his gun and finally killed him.

There was a period of silence on the other end of the call, and when there was another voice, Ji Linzhang had completely lost his temper. "Li Chen," he called him by his first name, "Tingting's sense of responsibility is very heavy. He will leave like this without hesitation. It must be because you have done extremely bad things to him. I haven't pursued this matter with you yet. Pen.

Yes, you did help our family when it was the most difficult time, but if the price of pulling this is to suffer in court, then my parents and I would rather not have this kindness. "

Ji Linzhang really knows how to speak, and he puts himself on the moral high ground when he writes and composes sentences. Li Chen only feels that he only has insidiousness and cruelty in his mouth.

Li Chen's ears were burning hotly, he had not experienced this kind of physiological reaction for many years.After breaking away from his original family, he swore that he would never experience this embarrassment of losing face again.

So he cut off the call directly.

Before boarding the plane, he sent a WeChat message to Ji Linzhang, saying that he would show up at Ji's house in three hours: we will meet and talk.

Then he said again: In short, Ji Linzhang, please remember, it is absolutely impossible for Ji Shaoting and I to divorce, don't even think about it.

When Li Chen hurried into Ji's house, Ji Linzhang had already asked his parents to leave the house.

His approach was correct, because as soon as Li Chenfu entered the door, he frantically shouted at Ji Shaoting, telling him to come out immediately.

As long as this frame is displayed, Ji Linzhang knows what kind of hell Ji Shaoting is living by Li Chen's side, so he also turned up the volume and asked Li Chen to shut up: "Ting Ting is not here!"

Li Chen slammed the door, rushed forward in three steps at a time, and grabbed Ji Linzhang by the collar.

"Where is he not here?" He asked angrily almost as if tearing his throat, "Where did you hide him?!"

Ji Linzhang frowned: "As I said, it's his own decision where Ting Ting goes, and I'm only responsible for the aftermath. It was my fault when the company went wrong. Ting Ting has already sacrificed enough, it's time to stop."

But Li Chen didn't listen, he just continued his interrogation arbitrarily and domineeringly: "You ordered him to leave, right?! I knew there was something wrong with the conversation between the two of you brothers! Tell me, where did you hide him?" ?!"

The collar that was tightened quickly pinched the back of Ji Linzhang's neck, and his throat was pressed against Li Chen's clenched fist.

For a moment, even the air was tense, Ji Linzhang looked into Li Chen's eyes, and thought that this person really answered the four words of a beast in clothes and clothes: he looks like a person, but his words and deeds have completely degenerated to the original state, all controlled by emotions and instincts , can easily cause violence to others because of anger.

"I see." He said suddenly.

Li Chen stared at him, and asked him what did he understand?

"This is how you usually treat Ting Ting." Ji Linzhang used a tone of stating the facts, slowly and firmly.

One sentence illuminates the most empty place in Li Chen's heart, in broad daylight, there is nothing to hide.

Ji Linzhang's eyes were full of hostility, and he also responded to Li Chen's equally sharp question: "Why do our family have to be tortured day after day in your hands when we are pets? Li Chen, don't you Forgot, back then you were the one who promised you would not fall in love with Ji Shaoting, since you didn't love him, then what's the problem with asking you to divorce my brother?"

What is this nonsense?Li Chen's head was full of bangs.

He also treats Ji Shaoting as a precious pet, providing him with food and clothing, fearing that he will be cold or sick, and not being bored for him, and even leaving his job immediately to accompany him to go abroad.

How could he not love Ji Shaoting, he loved Ji Shaoting so much that he lost his mind.

Just when he was about to refute, Ji Linzhang was the first to reprimand: "Li Chen, the two of us made an agreement at the very beginning, didn't we? It's not Tingting's fault."

"I told you, Tingting is timid. He has never been in a relationship until he was 25. No one in this world is more afraid of pain and injury than him. Do you know how much he suffered in the hospital since he was a child?"

"So you don't have to drag me now and ask if I ordered him to leave. If you think about it from his perspective for a second, you will know that if you treat him in this way, it is inevitable that he will leave you."

"It's your fault that Ting Ting left."

There is no room for dodge in such a cover-up accusation.

"Li Chen," Ji Linzhang looked at him flat, every word was full of truth, "All this is your fault."

Li Chen had loosened his grip at some point, and stood motionless.

Ji Linzhang took two steps back to straighten his collar, and took a stack of densely printed documents from the coffee table in the living room, the ink on the white paper gleamed slightly under the light.

"Our family doesn't do ungrateful things," he said solemnly, "my father has already asked someone to draft the asset transfer document, it's just a draft, if you have any other requirements, you can contact our lawyer, the phone number is written on the upper right corner."

Li Chen's arms were hanging by his side, not intending to take the document, so Ji Linzhang handed it forward: "Our Ji family is indeed grateful for your help, but my parents and I will not forgive you for treating Ting Ting What you are doing, please take your documents and leave, you are not welcome here."

"I don't need it." Li Chen said emptyly.

"It's not a question of whether you need it or not. It's a question of whether we want to get rid of you completely." Ji Linzhang said coldly, "This is one. The other is the status of your husband and wife with Tingting. I know that you, Li Chen, have Money has power, and there may be a way in the law, but our Ji family will definitely fight this lawsuit to the end, otherwise—”

Li Chen's eyes widened suddenly.

Ji Linzhang's voice, the sentence comparable to death, drilled into his mind from his ear canal and couldn't stop lingering, imposing the most cruel death penalty on him in the world:

"Otherwise Tingting will not be able to marry someone who will truly love him."
