Then, she asked in confusion,ââGrandma Chen, whatâs wrong?â
This sentence pulled grandma Chen back to reality. She showed a sincere smile and shook her head helplessly.ââDonât be scared by me. Itâs just that after so many years, Iâve never heard of little Zheng having a fiancée.â
Grandma Chenâs tone was filled with joy, as if she was happy for Zheng Zeyi.
On the other hand, Qiao sisi was even more confused. It seemed that Lin Xiu âer and Zheng Zeyi had broken up for a long time. Otherwise, grandma Chen would not have such a tone.
He didnât know what had happened at that time ...
âGrandma Chen, we just decided on this recently. Donât think too much about it.â Joes explained.
Grandma Chen waved her hand. She didnât care about this.
After that, grandma Chen explained it to her, and joesse finally understood what had happened.
It turned out that Zheng ze had a neighbor when he was a child. She was the top designer, grandma Chen, who was at the peak of her career at that time. That was also when Zheng lihan had just cheated on her.
After that, Zheng Zeyiâs mother died in the hospital, and grandma Chen helped out a lot. In addition, she retired from the jewelry design industry.
Seeing that old master Zheng had returned, they left the area.
After a long time, Zheng Zeyi finally found grandma Chen again.
It was also at this time that the two of them began to contact each other more often, causing Zheng ze to come to Yun Qi to visit her from time to time.
......
After listening to the story, Qiao sisi finally understood how grandma Chen and Zheng Zeyi met.
They looked like two people who had no connection to each other, but they were once neighbors.
Thinking about Zheng zeâs childhood experience, Qiao si felt an inexplicable heartache, but she did not know where it came from.
âI heard that little Zheng had a girlfriend before, but I donât know about her anymore.â Grandma Chen seemed to have suddenly recalled something.
The âbeforeâ she was referring to was Zheng Zeyiâs ex-girlfriend, Lin Xiu âer.
After hearing that, joesse understood and changed the topic without changing her expression, in case grandma Chen asked again how they met.
How was Joes supposed to make up a story about love at first sight in a bar?
She was still embarrassed and angry when she thought about what happened that night. Who knew that she would sleep with her enemyâs cousin while drinking?
Grandma Chen and Qiao sisi got along well and only prepared to leave when it was almost six in the evening.
Because of the cold weather, the sky was getting dark quickly. Although it was only Sixoâ clock, the sky was already dark. The moonlight was not as bright as the summer, and it seemed a little dark.
Joes looked out of the window, stood up, and said,ââGrandma Chen, itâs getting late. I wonât disturb you any longer. Iâll come and visit you again tomorrow if I have time.â
Grandma Chen was worried.
âSisi, itâs already so late. A girl shouldnât go out alone. Why donât you stay at grandma Chenâs place for the night and go back tomorrow?â
After hearing this, joesseâs eyes were filled with gratitude. She smiled and said,ââDonât worry, grandma Chen. The hotel Iâm staying at is just a few steps away. Weâll be there soon.â
Seeing how persistent she was, grandma Chen sighed and no longer stopped her.
The staircases were extremely dark at night, and since this small building did not have voice-controlled lights, Jossi could only walk down with the help of her phoneâs flashlight.
âDa da da ...â
The sound of footsteps rang out in the empty corridor. Every step that Joes took echoed, so she was used to this.
He looked at the door plate of this building. It was already the third floor, and he would reach the bottom soon.
Joes heaved a sigh of relief. A bad premonition lingered in her heart, but she suppressed it.
He clenched the Taser in his pocket tightly, and his expression was a little serious.
When she reached the door, Joes scanned her surroundings. It was very quiet at night, and there were very few people around.
Ink covered the ground, and dog barks could be heard occasionally. Joes followed the path she had taken in the morning and prepared to return to Jade Street.
The road was more winding and needed to turn several roads.
Just as Joes was making her way into a small alley, she suddenly felt all the hair on her body stand up. A sense of danger shot up to her head.
The alley was extremely quiet, but she realized that there was someone here!
âDonât move!â
A middle-aged manâs voice came from behind, and there was even a bright dagger pressed against his waist.
In an instant, joesse almost screamed out loud. However, to prevent herself from triggering the middle-aged manâs reaction, she quickly covered her mouth with one hand.
Her other hand was hidden in her pocket, holding the Taser tightly. Her palm was already covered in sweat, showing how nervous she was.
He had still miscalculated ...
Joes did not expect someone to be following her. Furthermore, there was no sound of footsteps. One look and she could tell that this was a repeat offender. He often did this kind of thing and was very experienced.
From this angle, she had no way to take out her Taser, not to mention that there was a sharp dagger at her waist.
A moment of carelessness could result in him losing both his wealth and his life!
Joes tried her best to make her voice not tremble as much as she could. She took a deep breath and said,ââWhat do you want? money, right?â
What she had to do now was to lower the guard of the man behind her. Only then would she have a chance of survival.
After hearing joesseâs words, the man behind her grinned. His voice was extremely unpleasant, as if he did not want joesse to find out what his voice was like.
âI didnât expect you to be so sensible. If you know whatâs good for you, then hand over all the money in your bag!â
After saying that, he pressed the dagger against her waist with more force. Joes felt that her clothes had been pierced, and the cold feeling was extremely clear.
Calm down ... I must calm down!
Joesâs heart was beating extremely fast, but she continued to calm herself down.
âOkay, Iâll give you the money,â he said.âIâll give it to you now. Donât do it.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Hearing that, the man hesitated for a moment. He did not expect Joes to cooperate with him so much, so he said,ââIâm not going to touch you. Hand over the money, hurry up!â
Joesseâs pupils shrank. She put her hand that was covering her mouth into her bag and searched for her wallet.
The man behind her seemed to be a little nervous.ââHurry up! Donât dilly-dally. Do you believe that Iâll just take action?â
Sensing that the tip of the dagger was about to Pierce her skin, Joes gritted her teeth and took out her black leather wallet from her bag.
âDon ât, donâ t. Big brother, this is my wallet. Iâm giving it to you now.â
When the man behind her saw this, he revealed a satisfied expression. However, just as he was about to reach out and take the wallet, something happened!
Joesâs eyes widened, and her gaze suddenly became determined. This Is The Moment!
