Zhao Jili stared at the soft long hair on the ground, his eyes were dim, and the shining stars seemed to fade away.

"As long as she doesn't want to be with me, she can find 1 excuses. Even if she doesn't admit it, even if she pretends, I know it all."

"...Did you think I couldn't find it?" Zhao Jili frowned, and looked away from the ground in disgust.

Zhang Hebi couldn't comprehend the mystery of her actions, so he just shook his head slightly, picked up the long hair, and threw it into the trash can: "Aunt Qin's career is very good, she must be very busy. You don't have to Too fussy, if you really hate being alone, I can come to accompany you anytime."

Zhang Hebi's tone was very kind, and he was very considerate and didn't ask too much.Such a caring attitude can easily win Zhao Jili's favor.

She immediately grabbed Zhang Hebi's hand with frowned eyebrows: "Yes. Thank you for always being with me."

Zhang Hebi lowered his eyelashes, smiled and shook his head: "No need."

Zhao Jili and Qin Jueheng's way of getting along is very different from ordinary families no matter how they look at it.Zhang Hebi could sense this abnormality from the first time they met Qin Jueheng.

It's no secret that Qin Jueheng is a womanizer in Jiang City, but anyone who has entered this social circle can also know a thing or two about Qin Jueheng's domineering past.

This person has always been arrogant and dignified, and his image in front of others has always been that of an elegant high-school boy. The combination of a dandyism in his behavior and a rare appearance is enough to surprise everyone he has seen. Resist the attraction.

But almost no one knew that such a queen on the altar of Gaoling would actually show a gentle and submissive expression in front of Zhao Jili, and also anxiously speculate about a child's mind.Although there are many mistakes in guessing, it can also make Zhang Hebi aware of the reason.

This is really shameless and exciting.

Zhang Hebi looked at Zhao Jili's exquisite side face with a smile, feeling a little pitiful in his heart.

She can't feel it.Thinking about it, Zhang Hebi leaned on the back of the sofa and looked at the night scene outside the window.

Zhao Jili didn't realize the specialness of this love.Even if you notice it, you probably won't like it.

Zhao Jili's definition of "love" is very confusing, even Zhang Hebi can detect a thing or two after three years of contact.What she wants is not only the still water-like family affection, nor the superficial friendship that is indifferent to each other, but at the same time she stubbornly hates the love in the adult world.

No one knew exactly what Zhao Jili wanted.The chaotic and disorderly life of her childhood left her with a doomed mark of confusion, which made it difficult for her to realize her direction.

Zhang Hebi raised the corners of their lips slightly, and turned their eyes back to Zhao Jili.

In short, these two people are impossible in any case.Zhang Hebi is convinced that no matter how romantic and affectionate Qin Jueheng is, there are some things she will never do.

And those things that Zhao Jili couldn't do, he could do without hindrance.

Thinking about it, Zhang Hebi's eyes were almost stained with pity and sympathy.She looked at Zhao Jili's slightly curly hair on her shoulders, and she smiled deeply.

"Performance."

Qin Jueheng's voice came from outside the door, and then Qin Jueheng pushed the door open and entered.

"What's wrong?" She looked suspiciously at Zhao Jili, who was hanging her head, "Are you uncomfortable?" As she said, Qin Jueheng stretched out his hand to touch it.

Zhao Jili didn't notice anything unusual on his forehead.

"It's okay." When Zhao Jili raised his head, his expression had returned to a docile and obedient look, and the loneliness and boredom just now disappeared.

"Let's go?" Zhao Jili held Qin Jueheng's arm, and extended his hand to Zhang and Bi.

.

As long as Zhao Ji is ideal, she will always be a lovable child.

At first glance, Jing's exquisite and good appearance, and after contact with her sleek aura that no one can refuse, are enough reasons for everyone to have a good impression of her.

Qin Jueheng's worries were totally unnecessary.She looked at Zhao Jili, who was very capable in the social arena, but for some reason, she still felt a little frustrated.

The dinner party was half over, and everyone knew that this outstanding girl was the young miss of her Qin family.Qin Jueheng positively denied all the ambiguous questions, and did what she had always avoided.

But at the same time, Qin Jueheng also noticed that Zhao Jili's attitude towards him was very cold.She wanted to say a few words to Zhao Jili several times, but was choked back by Zhao Jili's polite and smiling eyes.

The tacit disguise of each other these days seems to have finally become blunt at this moment.Qin Jueheng put down the wine glass in his hand wearily, slightly drunk, frowned and wanted to leave.

Qin Jueheng has always been used to wanton, no matter whether this is a dinner hosted by herself or not, as long as she wants, she can leave at any time.

Zhang Hebi on the side kept staring at Qin Jueheng, so at this moment, he clearly caught Qin Jueheng's figure hidden by the stairs.

Qin Jueheng ran away? Zhang Hebi didn't understand the reason, raised his eyebrows and then showed a flamboyant smile.

"I'm going to the bathroom." She put the wine glass in her hand aside, turned sideways and whispered to Zhao Jili, who was talking with someone else.

Zhao Jili nodded indifferently, smiled cleanly but with a little natural charm, and winked at her.

Zhang Hebi looked at Zhao Jili's easy-going look, and quietly walked to the end of the stairs where Qin Jueheng disappeared, amused in his heart.

This is the main house of the Qin family. Now that the mistress has passed away, and the two older sisters are busy with business, Qin Jueheng is the legitimate master.

The crowd was in full swing, but the host left the table. Why? Zhang Hebi walked up to the second floor curiously and with a prying mind.

The banquet hall on the second floor is different from the first floor. Compared with the bright lights downstairs, there is not a single light on here, and only the light penetrating under the railing of the corridor keeps things visible.

Zhang and Bi walked lightly along the corridor, and finally saw a faint orange light shining through the door of a half-hidden room.

Qin Jueheng leaned on the soft chair in the room, silently looking at the photo frame in his hand.

At this moment, her expression can be regarded as soft and defenseless, and it is no longer the kind of dignified and decent that Zhang and Bi usually see.There is no politeness and elegance that are just right, nor the innate domineering pride, but it is just soft and thin that makes people want to embrace it.

However, only Zhao Jili can fully possess such a side that is hard to see.

The possessive desire that Zhang Hebi had concealed for a long time suddenly came to mind at this moment.She stepped forward lightly, reached out and knocked on the door.

Qin Jueheng slammed the photo frame in his hand onto the table, his sharp eyes were filled with fatigue.

"What's the matter?" Qin Jueheng's tone was a little unhappy to be disturbed.Zhang Hebi also knows that she has always been so casual with people other than Zhao Jili, let alone herself who has evil intentions.

"Aunt Qin, Ji Li asked me to find you."

Zhang Hebi walked into the room and stood in front of Qin Jueheng with a smile.

"She? Asked you to come to me?" Qin Jueheng looked at Zhang and Bi with a smile.

"She will only come to me by herself, and will never let you come to me." Qin Jueheng mercilessly exposed Zhang Hebi's lies, leaned back on the back of the soft chair, and folded his slender right leg on the left On his lap, he folded his arms and looked at Zhang and Bi.

"You really know her very well." Zhang Hebi was not ashamed, but reached out and picked up the photo frame that Qin Jueheng had put on the table.

Unsurprisingly, the framed photo is of Zhao Jili, who is at the age of [-] or [-], and perhaps very recently.

The people in the picture are obviously unaware.Looking at Zhao Jili sitting in front of the piano in the photo, Zhang Hebi agrees for the countless times——she is indeed very beautiful and beautiful.

But she is Qin Jueheng's adopted daughter.

"Miss Zhang," Qin Jueheng looked at Zhang Hebi's rude behavior and sneered, "The reason why I don't let you go is because my family Jili likes you very much. I don't want to disappoint Jili, and I hate her the most. Disappointed people, understand?"
