Ji Zhixiu walked downstairs slowly.

Jiang Mian swallowed the wontons in his mouth and looked up, "Is the meeting over?"

"Do you like someone younger than you?" He asked without answering.

These mindless words were quite baffling. Jiang Mian licked his lips, confused, "Why do you like being younger than me?"

Just then Aunt Song brought a plate of strawberries.

Jiang Mian picked one up with his fingertips and put it into his mouth, "It's so sweet."

She was completely immersed in the food.

Ji Zhixiu walked up to her and poked her cheek with his fingertips, his voice full of resentment, "Am I very old?"

The abundant juice almost choked Jiang Mian, and she coughed twice.

I finally knew what this man was up to.

She raised her head and smoothed her hair, "Not old or old, this is called a mature man——"

"How do you like it?"

Jiang Mian stuffed two strawberries, her cheeks were bulging, and she was mumbling like a hamster, "I like it."

"Is it sweet?"

Jiang Mian picked one up and stuffed it into his mouth, "Try it."

"Not as sweet as you."

"A strawberry, just to send you away? Nothing more than that."

"That's what I taught you," he said in a clear tone.

Jiang Mian jumped up from his chair, his eyes full of surprise, "Did you see it?"

This is one of the lines of her character in "The Legend of Locked Heart".

Unexpectedly, Ji Zhixiu actually picked up the second half of the sentence.

Ji Zhixiu nodded, "I finished reading it at twice the speed."

Jiang Mian felt sweet in her heart. His time was precious, so it would be great if he would spend time reading her works.

It doesn't matter how fast it is.

She hooked her arm on his shoulder and asked, "Do you have any advice from that season?"

"Don't take advice seriously."

He estimated that Jiang Mian would win an award for this drama.

Seeing the little girl's happy look, Ji Zhixiu didn't finish his words and thought it was a surprise.

...

The next day, the two went back to their old house for dinner.

Jiang Mian prepared gifts for everyone. Although Ji's mother was not happy, she didn't say anything.

Until everyone in the circle has been given out, including the servants at home.

Ji Zhilan couldn't help but said, "Where's mine? Why are my parents and grandfather both here, but not me? Jiang Mian! You're targeting me!"

Jiang Mian blinked, "Because I don't know what you like, and I thought you might not like what I bought. Just..."

"Okay! You're not even pretending this time?" She stood up, thinking she had Jiang Mian's handle, "Finally let me see your true face! You just don't want to buy it for me!"

She turned around and complained, "Grandpa! Look at it!"

Jiang Mian swallowed the toffee in his mouth, "I haven't finished speaking yet. I thought you might not like the gift I picked. So I thought about asking your brother to restore the right to use your pocket money."

Ji Zhilan looked at her in disbelief, "How can you be so kind?"

Jiang Mian smiled, "Originally, that's what I thought. But now it seems you don't need it, so forget it and pretend I didn't mention it. What do you think, husband?"

Ji Zhixiu put a piece of sweet and sour pork into her bowl without raising his head, "You're right."

Ji Zhilan was so angry that he stamped his foot twice, "Brother! You are a family! I am the only outsider, right?"

Mr. Ji knocked on the table, "Okay, stop making trouble and eat."

When Mr. Ji spoke, Ji Zhilan had to be honest.

She glared at Jiang Mian fiercely.

Jiang Mian smiled, not angry at all.

After dinner, Ji's mother made an appointment to play mahjong.

Ji Zhixiu went back upstairs to play chess with Mr. Ji.

Only Jiang Mian and Ji Zhilan were left in the living room.

Ji Zhilan chuckled twice, "I don't know how you seduced my brother."

Jiang Mian was surprised, "It seems that the lesson your brother gave you was not profound enough."

"You!" Her expression changed, she snorted suddenly, and whispered, “You won't be proud for long anyway!"

She spoke in a very low voice.

Jiang Mian didn't hear clearly and shrugged, "I'm going to take a nap, you can do whatever you want."

hateful!

How come this woman is as casual in her home as she is in her own home!

Ji Zhilan gritted his teeth and watched her go upstairs.

Jiang Mian rarely had any leisure time, so he got up after sleeping for a while.

It's only four o'clock in the afternoon.

Ji's mother is still playing mahjong.

There were bursts of mahjong collision sounds in the living room.

Jiang Mian leaned on the handrail of the stairs, too lazy to move.

As soon as Ji Zhixiu came out of the room, he saw her lazily leaning on the stairs.

He went over and hugged her from behind, "What's wrong?"

Jiang Mian tilted his head and said, "When we're done, how about we have a baby?"

Ji Zhixiu kissed the tip of her nose and breathed out, "Okay."

"Do you like boys or girls?"

"Why can't we all have them?"

"It depends on your mood."

"Both men and women are good, I like them both. Having a daughter will be as cute as you. If you have a son, you can protect you with me."

Jiang Mian curled her lips and couldn't hide her smile, "Mr. Ji, you are getting better and better at talking about love."

In the past, she was very obsessed with the fact that she did not have a complete family.

But now she doesn't think so. She and Ji Zhixiu can give their future children a complete family.

"be honest."

He took the matter of children very lightly.

Two people are fine, three people are fine too.

As long as it's with her.

Half a month later.

Jiang Mian completely ended all work schedules at hand.

"Nine Glass" has also officially entered the post-production stage.

"The Legend of the Lock" became a prime-time rotation show on Kyoto TV due to its excellent ratings.

It gave Jiang Mian two more points of topic.

This TV series has been a real hit since it was aired, conquering every audience with its strength.

At the same time, some rumors also emerged on the Internet.

But Sister Ning didn't pay attention at first, because she was popular among many people. It's absolutely normal.

Until an anonymous poster posted a post on a certain page called [A glimpse into the life behind that popular star].

Although the post did not mention Jiang Mian by name, it did not leave Jiang Mian behind.

Every feature matched Jiang Mian's.

The poster pointed out that Jiang Mian was an illegitimate daughter and had a big boss backing her. That’s why the resources are so good after the comeback.

Many fans of Jiang Mian started to fight in this post, and the building was immediately raised to an extremely high level.

Caused a bloody storm.

At the same time, it also firmly occupied the hot search.

When Jiang Mian saw it, he was still confused.

Illegitimate daughter, is this her?

She didn't want to fall into the trap either.

But the 21st class of Peking University has just finished filming a fairy tale heroine drama, which has been very popular recently.

Don't these clues refer to her?

Her heart was beating so fast that she couldn't help but click on the original post to read it.

Host: [It doesn’t matter if you don’t believe it, I’m just telling the truth. As far as I know, this sister has no relatives and was raised by her grandmother, because she is indeed an illegitimate daughter and no one wants her. 】

Floor 539: [I said it in vain, I can do it, and I also said that the poster is a fool for surfing the Internet]

Floor 880: [Why did the information about her suddenly come out?

Floor 1800: [An illegitimate daughter is an illegitimate daughter, it’s disgusting that the poster is like a villain in the gutter]

Floor 2100: [Is there any evidence?]

Author: [To add some details, when this sister had not yet entered the industry, her mother brought her to Kyoto to recognize her father, but she was rejected. Her mother couldn't bear the blow and committed suicide. If you are interested, you can check it out if it has been in the news]

When Jiang Mian saw this, he was suddenly stunned.

My head felt dizzy as if it had been hit by a heavy object, and I could barely stand still.

She bit her lip, and there was a vague impression in her head.

She turned on her phone and started searching for keywords.

...

When Ji Zhixiu came back from get off work, the house was extremely quiet.

He glanced at Aunt Song who was in the kitchen, "Aunt Song, where is the young lady?"

Aunt Song poked her head in, "Young Madam said she wanted to go out, but I don't know where she went."

"How long?"

"It's been about three or four hours."

Three or four hours? Ji Zhixiu frowned.

Call Jiang Mian, "Hello, the phone you dialed has been turned off..."

He hung up the phone and fell into thought.

Just as I was thinking about it, my phone rang. He took the phone.

Sister Ning's voice came from the other end, "Mr. Ji, it's hard to suppress this hot search! In fact, it's nothing. It doesn't matter about Mianmian's identity. It's just that there are rumors that she was involved in this matter. Do you want some clarification?"

Ji Zhixiu pinched his eyebrows and said, "You don't have to worry about it, just leave it to me."

"Okay," Sister Ning nodded. When Ji Zhixiu said this, she knew what was going on.

"By the way, is Jiang Mian with you?"

"She didn't come to the company today."

Ji Zhixiu's heart sank inexplicably, "I understand."

After hanging up the phone, Ji Zhixiu dialed Fan Cheng's number and asked, "Check where the young lady is now."

"Okay CEO."

He originally thought that if he suppressed this matter, the little girl would not see it. Unexpectedly, she still saw him.

What he tried so hard to hide was still going to be revealed to her.

He exhaled softly, his mind spinning rapidly. If he wasn't at home, where could he go?

School? She probably won't go.

Roommates? I left the villa specifically without thinking of meeting anyone.

Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind, there was another place!

Ji Zhixiu drove to Shengshi Huating.

Since the two moved back to Xiushui Villa, he has almost never been to this place again.

Going upstairs, he opened the fingerprint lock.

The furnishings in the living room are as neat as yesterday.

There was no trace of anyone coming.

Ji Zhixiu was a little annoyed. Could it be that he had guessed wrong?

Or maybe Mianmian returned to Jiangnan? But Fan Cheng checked, and there was no record of her travel.

In other words, people are still staying in Kyoto.

He closed his eyes slightly and thought quickly.

Then he opened his eyes, walked to the master bedroom, held the door handle of the master bedroom, twisted it gently, and pushed the door open.

In the empty room, the furnishings were still clean and tidy.

The pillows on the bed were covered with dust covers.

There are some cosmetics on the dressing table that the little girl didn't take away.

"Axiu, I have class tomorrow, don't pick me up!"

"Mr. Ji is a very busy man."

"Our professor let us watch a performance appreciation class all afternoon today!"

The past events replayed before his eyes like vivid scenes.

Her vivid, angry, and coquettish appearance was firmly etched in his heart.

Ji Zhixiu's heart ached uncontrollably.

It's hard to imagine how sad she would be after knowing her identity.

He turned around and opened every door of the auxiliary bedroom, guest room, and study room.

But there was no familiar figure in every door.

Ji Zhixiu leaned back on the sofa, with a rare hint of regret on his usually calm face.

Mianmian, where did you go?

He took out his cell phone and dialed the number again.

This time the prompt is still to shut down.

Ji Zhixiu rubbed his forehead and made a phone call back to the villa, "Aunt Song, has the young lady gone back?"

"No. Don't worry, young master. I will tell you as soon as the young lady comes back."

"good."

He put down his cell phone and suddenly stood up. He was in the trash can in the master bedroom.

He saw two pieces of tissue paper, tissue paper used to wipe tears!

When I moved out of this house, all the rubbish in the house was cleared away.

So, she must have been here.

Ji Zhixiu suddenly felt that he had found the direction.

There was still one place he was not looking for, a place he almost missed.

He stood at the bathroom door and listened carefully.

It was quiet inside, no sound at all.

Ji Zhixiu closed his eyes slightly, feeling ups and downs in his heart.

He put his palm on the door handle, and time seemed to freeze.

If she is really not here, then where else can we find her?
