Feng Xinying crossed her legs and smiled at Xie Shengjun. Shu Jing Min was in such a haste to get Shu Ning married that he didn"t look at anything else. She smiled and said, "Time to sell another of his s.h.i.+ps."
"Why do we have to sell another s.h.i.+p, Xinying? It is not needed," asked Xie Shengjun. "I think the s.h.i.+pping business would self sustain now that two of the s.h.i.+ps have been sold. Also the dust on business" case has been settled. People have already forgotten about it. We should not sell it."
Feng Xinying looked away and replied with a very serious face, "I want him to suffer so much that he shudders when he thinks of my name. I am going break his favorite business piece by piece and give it back to him. When it will be left with nothing, I will hand it over to him."
Xie Shengjun looked at her with shock in his eyes. He thought that Feng Xinying was only interested in taking over the business that Shu Jing Min had taken over by trick from her father but he didn"t that she hated him to the extent that she even wanted to destroy his business and make him suffer.
Xie Shengjun didn"t know what else to say. He pursed his lips and became quiet. Feng Xinying got up from the sofa and then after collecting the papers, she left the office. Xie Shengjun followed her.
Shu Jing Min was admitted to the hospital. He sent his people everywhere to look for Shu Ning but she and her boyfriend were nowhere to be found. However, his men got the information from the police station that the case that had been slapped by Xie Shengjun had been withdrawn a day before. He wanted to ask Xie Shengjun about it, but he couldn"t because once again how could he show interest in BF"s case. He had on purpose not followed it because even he wanted BF to stay in jail. It was just too complicated. But he couldn"t understand the timing of withdrawing the case.
In the hospital when Jiao Long came over and reported that both Shu Ning and BF had perhaps escaped out of the country, Shu Jing Min mulled over as to how come two teenage kids could do that without any help and without being detected. They disappeared overnight. When he mulled over it, he realized that the timing of BF"s release was purposely matched with the meeting he had with Feng Xinying. This also meant that Feng Xinying was aware of it and perhaps she facilitated the escape.
The more Shu Jing Min thought about it, the more agitated he became.
Ah Jun was creating havoc. He had gone to meet Jing Min in the hospital and had threatened him with dire consequences if Shu Ning was not handed over to him within two days.
For Shu Jing Min, everything suddenly became messy. His life that was already in doldrums was now so chaotic that he didn"t know what to do. His blood pressure increased and the doctors had to take him to the emergency ward.
Feng Xinying reached home and found Xie Yuansheng sitting in the main hall with a bored look on his face. He had crossed his legs and his arms across his chest. She smiled and went to him. Sitting by his side, she said, "Why that look on your face Shengu? Are you bored? Do you want to go out?"
"Hmm," he replied and nodded his head like a bobble head.
"Tomorrow, we have a doctor"s appointment. Do you remember?" she asked.
"Hmm," he replied again.
"Okay, then be ready by 10AM tomorrow," she said and started to leave.
He pulled her hand and made her sit beside him again. He said with puppy eyes, "Feng Xinying, let"s go out for a walk."
Feng Xinying was tired and wanted to go to sleep but the way he said, her heart melted and she said, "Okay, instead of going out for a walk, let me take you to a special place."
"What place?" he asked enthusiastically.
She smiled and stroked his hair. "You will see. Get ready."
"Okay," he replied and sprang to his feet like a baby.
She waited for him in the main hall and he was back with her within five minutes. She laughed at his eagerness to go out.
They waited for the car to come to pick them up in front of the entrance and left soon. Feng Xinying asked the driver to go to s.h.i.+nas.h.i.+ Residencies. Upon asking what was so special about that place, she replied to Xie Yuansheng that he would have to wait and see it himself.
The car drove for an hour before they reached the s.h.i.+nas.h.i.+ Residences. Xie Yuansheng could see from the outside that the area was pretty high end. All the houses over there were beautifully maintained. The car drove inside for about fifteen minutes and then came to a stop in front of a house that looked vacant.
"What is this place, Feng Xinying?" asked Xie Yuansheng as he got down the car.
Feng Xinying took a deep breath and said, "This is a house which I am planning to buy." She opened the main gate and entered.
Xie Yuansheng followed her and looked at the house. His eyes became wide. It was the same house that he saw in his session with the psychiatrist. His excitement increased and so did his heart"s palpitation. He went ahead of Feng Xinying and reached the main entrance while looking at the garden in front of the house. It was the same garden where Yini ran in his dreams. He stopped in his tracks as he looked around the garden.
Feng Xinying was noticing his expressions. The doctor had asked her personally to take him to the house he had described in his dreams, if it existed and if it was possible. "What happened, Shengu?" she asked softly.
Xie Yuansheng"s breathing increased and without answering her he went to open the front door.
