When he arrived at the ruins of the Ji Family, what he saw was exactly this scene.
Wen Tiantian's entire body was buried in the ruins, covered in soot and dirt.
She opened her eyes wide in fear of missing any clues. However, her vision was not focused on anything. She only numbly lifted up the rubble on the ground.
Seeing her current state, Ruan Lee felt a sharp pain in her heart, as well as a sharp pain in her eye sockets.
She quickly ran over and grabbed Wen Tiantian's hand from behind.
"Tiantian, don't be like this."
Wen Tiantian didn't even turn her head and directly shook off her hand, continuing to rummage through without saying a word.
Grief-stricken, Ruan Lee hugged her from behind and pulled her out of the rubble.
"Tiantian, stop looking, can we go back?"
However, Wen Tiantian turned a deaf ear.
Ruan Lee couldn't bear to see her hurt him like that. She gritted her teeth and said, "Ji Jingchen is already dead!"
His words seemed to have pierced into Wen Tiantian's weak spot in an instant.
She struggled.
"NO!" He will be fine! "
"You're lying to me …"
She shook Ruan Lee off and rushed out again.
"Ji Jingchen will definitely be able to escape …"
She bent down and rummaged around mechanically.
After a while, Wen Tiantian suddenly turned around and looked at Ruan Lee behind her.
Her eyes instantly lit up with hope. She quickly got up and took the initiative to hold Ruan Lee's hand.
"Of course! You must have saved him, didn't you? "
"Ji Jingchen was in the house before. You guys must have rescued him. Which hospital is he in now?"
She said firmly, "You must have deliberately hidden him in order to send me abroad! It must be! "
Ruan Lee looked at Wen Tiantian's expression and was stunned for a moment. In the end, she could only shake her head.
"By the time we arrived, the fire had already surrounded the entire mansion. The people inside wouldn't be able to survive …"
Wen Tiantian's body trembled and her mind went blank.
She took a step back, staggered, and almost fell to the ground.
Ruan Lee stretched out her hand in panic, wanting to support her, but in the end, she stopped in midair and slowly retracted her fist, clenching it tightly.
She continued, "After the fire went out, we sent people to look for Ji Jingchen. We searched around the house, but we couldn't find anyone. "In that case, it's impossible for him to escape …"
"Impossible!"
Wen Tiantian interrupted her sharply.
"Impossible."
She took two more steps back, took a deep breath, and tried to control her sagging mouth.
"Ji Jingchen won't be in trouble, you guys … Didn't you find his body as well? "
"That's right."
Ruan Lee said with some difficulty, "But from the looks of the fire at that time, the possibility of Ji Jingchen surviving was basically zero."
"Zero?"
Wen Tiantian lowered her head and did not refute his words again. Her face was ashen, without a trace of blood, and her expression was broken into pieces.
Seeing her appearance, Ruan Lee reached out her hand with worry, wanting to pull her away.
"Tiantian, you …"
Pow!
Wen Tiantian suddenly raised her hand and lifted it.
The crisp sound stunned Ruan Lee and Wen Tiantian at the same time.
They had never expected that Wen Tiantian, who always had a warm attitude, would make such a move.
"Tiantian …"
Ruan Lee looked at her in disbelief.
Wen Tiantian raised her head. Her eyes were red and filled with tears. They were still rolling on the ground.
"Why?"
"Why do you do this? I just want to be with Ji Jingchen! "I just want a home …"
Ruan Lee's heart ached. She said gently, "Ruan Family is your home. Follow me back, okay?"
However, Wen Tiantian shook her head and took a step back. She looked at Ruan Lee with a distant expression.
"The place that Ji Jingchen is at is my home."
She turned around and continued to rummage through the ruins.
Ruan Lee froze on the spot, feeling as if a knife had been stabbed into her heart.
She went forward to stop Wen Tiantian, but was stopped by Wen Hongyu behind her.
Ruan Lee turned around and looked at Wen Hongyu with a puzzled expression.
Wen Hongyu shook her head at her and stopped him.
He then turned to look at Wen Tiantian and asked, "How long are you going to take?"
Wen Tiantian ignored him. Wen Hongyu continued, "Now, all the properties under Ji Jingchen's name have been frozen, including the castle you call home. The entire M.I. group is ready for sale."
"Now that Ji Jingchen is missing, who will protect the company? When the verdict ends in a week, everything will be taken away. Even if Ji Jingchen is fine, do you have the heart to just watch as his foundation that he built over many years is destroyed? "
Hearing these words, Wen Tiantian, who was rummaging through the ruins with her head lowered, suddenly stopped and raised her head.
Wen Hongyu saw the effect and continued, "When that time comes, Ji Jingchen will come back. Where will he go to find you?"
Wen Tiantian's hands loosened when she heard these words, and rubble fell to the ground.
She slowly stood up and turned around. Her gaze calmly landed on Wen Hongyu.
"What do you want me to do?"
"It's not what I want you to do, but what you want to do."
With that, Wen Hongyu didn't continue any further. Instead, she pulled Ruan Lee along and left with her.
Ruan Lee looked hesitantly at Wen Tiantian behind her.
She stood on the spot, her gaze empty. Her body was still covered in dust.
Ruan Lee was anxious to stay, but Wen Hongyu held her back tightly.
He whispered, "That is our daughter. Believe her."
The two of them got into the car and left slowly.
Wen Tiantian stood on the spot, unmoving.
The cold wind blew against her face, lifting her hair, making her feel very cold.
Her clothes were thin, but she didn't seem to feel anything. Her hands were covered with wounds and soot.
Wen Tiantian looked down at it for a moment, then slowly raised her head and clenched her hands into fists.
Ji Jingchen would be fine.
Since he had temporarily left, she would protect his home and his company!
Facing the wind, she slightly raised her head to look at the gradually dispersing dark clouds.
"I will be waiting for you at home, so please come back quickly."
A light breeze blew. The first warm breeze of spring blew from the south, dispersing the cold and raising the dust on the ground.
Wen Tiantian's voice disappeared in the wind, but he didn't know if it could reach the listeners.
She stood there for a while before slowly leaving the ruins and getting into a taxi.
The driver fastened his seat belt and looked up at the rearview mirror.
"Miss, may I ask if you are going …"
Before he could finish, he saw a pair of calm eyes.
Wen Tiantian's face was as calm as it had ever been. All her emotions were buried deep in her eyes.
She raised her head slightly, her gaze cold and sharp.
"Bring me to the Wen Family."
