Chapter 179 - Not Promising

After Xiao Ming closed the door, Shang Cijie opened his eyes again. He didn't really want to sleep, it was just that he didn't want to continue the topic with Xiao Ming.

“Third Young Madame, is it really alright for you to be like this? Do you want to go somewhere to relax? You haven't had a good time in the past five years.”

Lin Shuangxia felt heartache when she saw this, but she couldn't share the pain in Shang Cijie's heart.

“There's nothing to relax about. I'm fine.” Shang Cijie refused, his voice was still as cold as ever.

Lin Shuangxia also didn't want to anger Shang Cijie anymore, so she lowered her head.

But just as they reached the door, Shang Cijie suddenly asked, “I heard that his hospital was attacked?”

Lin Shuangxia stopped walking and turned around to answer, “Yes, I heard that one of the security guards was injured, and it seemed to be very serious. This case seems to be taken over by the Fourth Miss, but so far, we haven't found out who the culprit is.”

Why did he suddenly ask about Third Young Master? Didn't he say he hated Third Young Master?

Sigh! Sometimes, he really didn't know what Third Young Madame was thinking!

Shang Cijie was silent and did not reply.

Lin Shuangxia thought he had no orders and was about to leave. However, at this moment, Shang Cijie, who was on the bed, said, “Send someone to investigate the culprit. Xiaoxiao's channel is not as wide as ours.”

“Shouldn't you help Third Young Master find a criminal?” Puzzled, Lin Shuangxia was also shocked.

Shang Cijie's voice immediately turned cold, “Who wants to help him? I was helping Xiaoxiao.”

“I'm sorry, I was rude.” Lin Shuangxia hurriedly apologized.

“How annoying, get out! I want to be quiet.”

Shang Cijie roared in annoyance, as if he couldn't calm down at all.

“Yes.” Afraid of being scolded, Lin Shuangxia hurriedly left.

However, when he arrived outside, he found that Xiao Ming was still there.

Lin Shuangxia nodded politely and was about to leave when she was stopped by Xiao Ming, “Are you Xiaojie's bodyguard? A secretary?”

Lin Shuangxia didn't want to get involved with Xiao Ming and the others, but seeing that Xiao Ming was so anxious to know, she could only reply, “She's just an underling that took care of Third Young Madame.”

A servant? However, from the looks of her clothes, she seemed to be a bodyguard or something.

“Can you tell me what Xiaojie has been doing for the past few years? I just called Xiaoxiao. She wants to know what happened.”

Actually, that's not the case. He just wanted to know the reason why Shang Cijie became like this so that he could help Mu Sifa.

“Third Young Madame said that whoever interferes will become his enemy. I hope you won't make things difficult for me.” After saying that, Lin Shuangxia nodded and left without explaining anything to Xiao Ming.

Xiao Ming could only sigh. It seemed like asking her wasn't going to work either.

At this moment, Shang Cijie was lying on the bed in the room. He didn't close his eyes to sleep nor did he make any movements. He was just staring blankly into space.

After a long while, he let out a long sigh. His appearance was extremely uncomfortable, but he started to stare blankly again.

“Ah, so annoying.”

All of a sudden, he jumped up and let out a raspy sound, and then he frowned in annoyance.

“Damn it, what is with my heavy heart? Is there something wrong with me?”

Perhaps due to his sudden return here, the surroundings were filled with a familiar environment. Memories from the past came back to him, and the bits and pieces of him with Mu Sifa flashed into his mind, causing Shang Cijie to be unable to calm down.

“Shang Cijie, can't you have some potential?” Scolded himself.

He had purposely changed his name. Wasn't it to reincarnate and strengthen him? Why are you so cowardly? Damn it!
