His words hit Ji Anning's heart like a slap.
Finally unable to control herself, she threw off the covers, rolled out of bed, and ran barefoot from the room.
The structure of the villa was similar to the Ji Family's but decorated in a modern minimalistic style.
She hurried down the stairs and ran straight to the front door.
The luxurious villa stood alone by the seaside; stepping outside, one could hear the crashing waves, and it was still dark outside.
She pulled open the large iron gate and ran straight into a tall figure.
It was Xiang Yiqing, but she ignored him and ran past him.
"Anning, what's wrong?"
Xiang Yiqing reached out his hand, but was too late to catch Ji Anning as he watched her run away, momentarily stunned before reacting.
Turning to follow her, his peripheral vision caught Ji Chicheng coming out of the house chasing after her.
He confronted him, pushing the wet bag he was holding into his hands, "This is her bag, found by the local fishermen."
