Roses in Flames

Ji Shu never imagined that the toxins in her body could be completely removed.

She had long been prepared to die.

She was especially grateful to Ye Yuntang's father and the Xiao family for arranging the laboratory so that she could be brought back to life.

After thanking the Xiao family, she went to Ye City to express her sincere gratitude to the Ye Yuntang family.

Knowing about her health condition, her employer gave her a long leave of absence so that she could fully recover before returning to work.

Ji Shu thought of Chi Wang.

She searched for his latest news online.

He has already gone to Hengdian to join the film crew.

She thought she wouldn't live much longer, and in order to break up with him, she said some very hurtful things to him.

Later, I blocked and deleted his WeChat and phone number.

Looking back now, I realize I was really too much.

Ji Shu took out her phone and re-added Chi Wang on WeChat.

However, after submitting the application, I received no response for a long time.

That guy has a bad temper; I doubt he'll add her back unless she goes to him herself.

Ji Shu bought a plane ticket to Yiwu, and then took a bus to Hengdian.

Ji Shu has a female friend named Xiao He who happens to be making a cameo appearance in the film crew. After Ji Shu contacts Xiao He, Xiao He brings her to the film crew.

Ji Shu looked around but didn't see Chi Wang.

Just as he was about to ask Xiaohe, he caught a glimpse of a slender figure standing under the eaves not far away.

It is a delusion.

This time, he plays a sickly and possessive prince.

At this moment, he was wearing a dark black court robe with dark gold cloud patterns, a jade belt around his slender waist, and his shoulder and waist lines were neat and upright.

His jet-black hair was tied up high with a jade crown, revealing his smooth forehead and handsome face.

Despite his noble and unparalleled princely appearance and his excessively alluring peach blossom eyes, he also harbored a hint of inexplicable gloom and obsession.

His skin was pale and cold, and his handsome appearance was almost demonic.

Even though I was standing in the sunlight, I felt a chilling sensation, as if I were being immersed in a cold wave.

He was acting with someone when he noticed someone's gaze on him, and he subconsciously turned his head.

Their eyes met suddenly.

Ji Shu wore a thin, fitted trench coat today. She put her hands in the coat pockets, and her hair had grown long, reaching her shoulders and neck. She tucked her hair behind her ears, revealing a bright-eyed, white-toothed, and dashing face.

She smiled slightly at him.

Chi Wang glanced at her, then immediately turned away, pretending not to see her.

Ji Shu raised an eyebrow.

The brat is still angry.

A few seconds later, he turned back to look at her again.

Ji Shu looked at him too, without looking away.

Just then, the director called Chi Wang over to film a scene, but Chi Wang left absentmindedly.

But in this scene, he was clearly out of sorts, and his eyes kept uncontrollably looking in Ji Shu's direction.

We filmed one scene repeatedly, but it still didn't turn out right.

Ji Shu realized that her presence here was too much of a distraction for him.

After telling Xiaohe, she left the film crew.

Xiaohe handed the room key to Ji Shu, telling her to go to the hotel to rest.

Ji Shu arrived at the hotel and took a nap.

When I woke up, I received a call from Xiaohe, "Shushu, come downstairs and have dinner together."

After having dinner with Xiaohe, Xiaohe asked her, "The crew is going to karaoke tonight, do you want to come along? Oh, and your little wolf dog will be there too."

Ji Shu usually dislikes social events with many people, but when she heard that Chi Wang would be going, she agreed.

On the way there, she picked up her phone and glanced at it.

He still didn't accept her friend request.

When Ji Shu and Xiao He arrived at the private room, it was already full of people.

Ji Shu glanced around the private room and immediately spotted Chi Wang sitting in the corner.

He was wearing a black hooded sweatshirt and dark jeans, lounging lazily on the sofa.

He was holding a phone, and judging from his gestures, he was probably playing a game.

That brat, he has time to play games but no time to accept her friend request.

Ji Shu was angry, but she also understood that she was the one who broke his heart first.

Just as Ji Shu was about to take a step and sit down not far from Chi Wang, someone beat her to it and sat down next to Chi Wang.

Ji Shu pursed her lips and sat down next to Xiao He.

Xiao He glanced at Chi Wang and whispered in Ji Shu's ear, "That's Lin Xingyao, the heiress of Heng's Jewelry. She's been pursuing Chi Wang lately. I heard that she's planning to sign him as the new spokesperson for her jewelry company."

Ji Shu's heart tightened.

"I was planning to tell you this, but you said a while ago that you and Chi Wang broke up and have nothing to do with each other anymore, so I didn't feel comfortable bringing it up."

Xiaohe frowned at Ji Shu, "What exactly happened between you and Chi Wang? He loved you so madly back then. If you hadn't stopped him, he would have announced to the whole world that you were his girlfriend. During the three years you disappeared, he searched for you like a madman. He's handsome and devoted. How could you bear to break up with him?"

Ji Shu choked up, unable to express her bitterness.

She knew that the person she had wronged the most in her life was Chi Wang.

He was obsessive yet deeply affectionate. Although he was possessive, petty, and prone to jealousy, she knew that he truly loved and cared for her.

But she broke his heart time and time again.

"It's my fault. I regret it now and want to win him back. Do you think I still have a chance?"

Xiaohe chuckled, "Believe it or not, you can snap your fingers and he'll come back to you."

Ji Shu glared at Xiao He. "It's not that easy!"

"How about you sing a love song? I remember you sang really well when you were in school."

Xiaohe requested Chen Li's "Xiaoban" for Ji Shu.

As the prelude slowly unfolded, Ji Shu took the microphone from Xiao He, her voice clean and clear:

"I dared not look back, glancing left and right nervously, secretly harboring a crush..."

She sang with deep emotion, each line seemingly telling her own story, restrained yet gentle.

The private room fell silent instantly, and everyone looked at Ji Shu.

She sings like a professional singer; her voice is not only beautiful but also tells a story.

When the song reached its climax, even the usually invincible Ji Shu had a thin layer of mist in her eyes.

Chi Wang, who was playing on his phone, suddenly looked up the moment he heard Ji Shu's singing voice.

His gaze pierced through the crowd and locked firmly on Ji Shu.

His peach blossom eyes were deep and his emotions were churning.

"Chi Wang, do you know her?" Lin Xingyao asked from beside her.

Chi Wang couldn't hear a single word Lin Xingyao said.

In his eyes, ears, and heart, there was only that woman singing "Xiao Ban".

The world seemed to be muted; all he could hear was her singing and the glistening tears in her eyes.

Seemingly noticing his gaze, she turned her head to look at him.

As she sang the last line, she didn't look away. She just stared at him and, in front of everyone, softly, sincerely, and clearly said, "Chi Wang, I'm sorry."

Snapped!

The phone in his hand fell to the ground.

He knows better than anyone else.

She used to be independent, bold, and never backed down. No matter how much she cared, she would never show any weakness in front of others.

She always shouldered everything herself and never said a word, leading him to believe that she didn't care about him at all.

But now, in front of everyone, she apologized to him.

Chi Wang suddenly felt a lump in his throat.

He's so pathetic. He's still angry with her, he's been hurt so deeply by her, and he keeps telling himself to ignore her—

But as soon as she lowers her head slightly, or utters a single soft word, he crumbles completely.

I don't want any principles or pride anymore.

After picking up the phone, ignoring the strange looks from the crowd, he walked straight up to her, grabbed her excessively thin wrist, and pulled her out of the private room.

After leaving the private room, Ji Shu remembered his identity and reminded him to wear a hat and mask.

He glared at her with reddened, almond-shaped eyes, his tone both sharp and stubborn, "What are you going to wear? I'm not wearing it!"

Ji Shu frowned. "It'll be troublesome if we get photographed."

He looked down at her, saying each word clearly, "So what if you took the picture? I tolerated it and cooperated before because you wouldn't let us make it public. But now, I want it to be public. I want everyone to know that I, Chi Wang, like you!"

I fucking love it!

Ji Shu's heart felt like it was being tightly gripped by something, both sore and swollen.

That silly boy.

If he gets photographed, he'll be the one most affected.

"Fool." She gripped his hand tightly. "Don't you want to leave the entertainment industry?"

Chi Wang nodded. "I've already started my own entertainment company. I'll be working behind the scenes from now on. I don't want to be secretive with you anymore. I want to be with you openly and honestly. I don't want my fans to criticize you, and I don't want you to suffer even the slightest grievance."

His love has always been so passionate.

For her, I can give up the spotlight, I can give up popularity, I can give up the whole world.

He only wanted her.

He's a fool, the biggest fool in the world.

The two returned to Chi Wang's room at the hotel.

Ji Shu wanted to kiss him, but he turned his head away, saying, "You still haven't told me why we broke up?"

Ji Shu didn't want to hide it from him anymore, so she told him about how she had been poisoned and almost lost her life.

After he finished speaking, the room became eerily silent.

Chi Wang stood there, his peach blossom eyes reddening again, and even his breathing trembled.

He reached out and pulled her into a tight embrace. "You're not allowed to do anything so dangerous again!"

Ji Shu buried her face in his chest and nodded vigorously, "Yes, it won't happen again. I want to stay with you from now on."

Chi Wang looked down at her, "You're not allowed to go back on your promise to me."

He held out his hand to her. "Let's pinky swear."

Ji Shu couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Aren't you childish?"

Even so, she still extended her little finger and gently hooked it around his.

"I heard that Miss Lin from Hengshi Jewelry is pursuing you?" Ji Shu asked.

Chi Wang looked down at Ji Shu, "In my eyes, there has only ever been you. I don't care who else pursues me; from beginning to end, there has only been you..."

Before he could finish speaking, she stood on tiptoe and kissed him.

She was moved by his deep affection, and felt as if she were on fire, her lips and tongue burning hot.

We haven't been this close to each other in so long.

The complex emotions of longing, grievance, and loss are all conveyed through this kiss.

No longer holding back, they kissed each other passionately and tenderly.

The two embraced tightly, their emotions running high and they lost control.

Their lips intertwined, their breaths mingled, each wishing they could melt the other into their very bones.

They kissed their way from the entryway all the way to the bedroom.

In the dim light, clothes were scattered all over the floor.

This time, they will not let go of each other's hands.
