A phone call from Ye Qiu already made Xia Jing think a lot.
"If you don’t want to die, tell , where are you?"
"I’m, I’m at the club."
Xia Jing hurriedly said from the other side.
The club Xia Jing ntioned was one she owned, mainly for clients to discuss business and drink tea.
After Xia Jing revealed the location, Ye Qiu drove over.
Arriving outside the club, Ye Qiu initially thought it was a beauty salon type of place, but didn’t expect it to look much like a coffeehouse from the outside.
Xia Jing ca out wearing a black silk dress. To put it bluntly, she hadn’t sought out Ye Qiu all year, and naturally couldn’t see Ye Qiu in Jinling.
Ye Qiu was still the sa, but Xia Jing felt she aged another year.
Ti waits for no one. Though in her thirties and well-maintained, she still felt her heart grew old.
"Doctor Ye, what do you an by what you just said?"
"Sowhere suitable to talk."
"Co to my room then!"
Following Xia Jing to her room, Ye Qiu did not see her best friend Xiaomai, nor her secretary, Xiaofen.
However, as soon as Ye Qiu sat down, a youthful and pretty young girl brought him a pot of tea.
Seeing Ye Qiu’s expression, Xia Jing said, "I do envy her age, sothing money can’t buy."
Others envy her wealth at this age, yet she envies others for their youth.
No matter how you look at it, as you envy others, others are envying you; you might just be unaware.
Xia Jing poured Ye Qiu a cup of tea and, noticing Ye Qiu’s gaze, asked, "Doctor Ye, what were you implying earlier?"
"Weren’t you born in a Yin Year, Yin Month, and Yin Day?"
Last ti, Xia Jing was almost hard by those two people and saved only because of Ye Qiu.
It still left a deep impression on Xia Jing.
"Yes."
"Recently, in Jinling City, another six people have died, their hearts stolen. Their birth details match yours exactly."
What?
Xia Jing grew terrified upon hearing this.
Initially, she thought life wasn’t going well, but now she’s constantly encountering such things.
"You might be their next target."
"What, what should I do? I don’t want to die."
Xia Jing was truly afraid. This was determined by her parents, her fate; how could it be changed?
"It’s only a possibility. For now, just stay at my place."
"Stay at your place?"
Xia Jing seed a bit embarrassed.
Noticing her deanor, Ye Qiu said, "Don’t overthink it. I’m not interested in you."
"I, I know." No matter how pretty or wealthy Xia Jing was, she had married three husbands, all of whom died because of her.
If others knew of her situation, they would only get close if they had a death wish.
"Pack your things and co to my place. I’m in Jinling for a while, and I’ll help investigate this case. Once the culprit is found, you’ll be safe."
"What about the last perpetrator?"
"Should be dead."
That ti, Xia Jing was inexplicably taken away, then fainted. When she woke up, she found herself rescued by Ye Qiu and those officers.
But after that incident, she beca inexplicably more fearful.
While Ye Qiu was having tea, Xia Jing began to pack her things.
Won most likely have clothes and costics; especially as it’s still sumr, she might have more dresses to change.
Regardless, she’s wealthy and could change outfits daily with no issue.
When Xia Jing ca out with her bag, she said, "My things are at ho. Can you co with to get them?"
"Let’s go then."
Ye Qiu rembered that the luxury residential district Xia Jing lived in wasn’t far from the Peach Blossom Source Villa Community.
Xia Jing got into her BMW, while Ye Qiu followed in his Land Rover.
Upon arriving at the community and parking outside the villa, Xia Jing got out and asked, "Doctor Ye, aren’t you coming in?"
"No need."
Xia Jing entered alone.
Half an hour later, Xia Jing ca out, busy packing skirts with the maid, but ended up with fifteen branded ones.
Dragging the suitcases out, Xia Jing placed them in Ye Qiu’s trunk.
Upon returning to the Peach Blossom Source Villa Community, as Ye Qiu parked the car, Xiaomai ca out and asked, "Ye Qiu, have my certificates been taken care of?"
"I got soone to handle it."
When Xiaomai saw Xia Jing in the black silk dress getting out of the car, she was initially surprised, feeling this sister was remarkably pretty.
"Doctor Ye, who is this?"
"My maid Xiaomai."
"Hello, sister," Xiaomai said.
When Xiaomai helped take Xia Jing’s luggage off the car, Ye Qiu ignored it.
Inside, Xia Jing soon realized that Ye Qiu’s luxurious living space outdid her own, despite his young age.
As Xiaomai kindly helped move Xia Jing’s things to an upstairs guest room, Xia Jing had a good impression of her.
Because Xiaomai ntioned, based on feelings, Xia Jing seed just twenty-five or six, six or seven years younger than her real age.
Additionally, Xiaomai had a sweet deanor.
"Sister Xia, are you here for treatnt from Ye Qiu?"
Treatnt?
Previously she had co for treatnt for a rather private condition.
But it wasn’t about that now.
"No, I’m staying here for a while."
Xia Jing had never been here before, though she suspected that Ye Qiu lived nearby, not realizing it was so close, just a ten-minute drive.
"What’s your relationship with Ye Qiu?"
"Take a guess!"
Xiaomai couldn’t tell. Could Xia Jing be another woman Ye Qiu liked?
That couldn’t be, right?
Even if so, would Ye Qiu be fond of beauties much older than him?
As Xia Jing sat in the first-floor lounge sipping coffee, Xiaomai said, "Sister Xia, what do you like to eat? I’ll buy ingredients for dinner."
"Just so ho-cooked dishes will do."
To Xia Jing, she’s tasted all kinds of delicacies; it’s all the sa to her.
Yet she found the community very nice indeed and wondered if there were more houses available. If so, buying another mansion here ant staying in the sa community as Ye Qiu would indeed be much safer.
By now, Ye Qiu had gone back upstairs to play on his computer, caring little about what Xia Jing and Xiaomai discussed downstairs.
Yet, with Xiaomai’s innocent mind, seeing Xia Jing so beautiful and staying over for so ti, she assud Xia Jing might be Ye Qiu’s woman, hence her overt friendliness toward Xia Jing.
