Chapter 360 - Jinx
Chapter 360 – Jinx
''Did you find the person who hacked into our private documents?" Han Jing asked.
Han Sheng paused, ''No, I was incompetent," He said.
Han Jing shook his head, ''I think you should let go of this matter because our family has barely any connections with the military right now. There was nothing highly confidential in that document too….''
''How can it not be confidential?" Han Sheng frowned as he interrupted him. ''And from that document, two of our family member's data is missing,'' He coldly said before he turned around and left.
Han Jing was taken aback by the change in his attitude, ''Two of the family members' data is missing?" He followed after the man as he walked towards his room.
When he reached Han Sheng's room, he could hear the sound of faint sobs.
''Ah Yu, father has failed you,'' A muffled voice came from inside the room.
And from the creak of the door, Han Jing noticed the usually cold-looking man crying while holding a photo frame in his hand.
Han Jing sighed before he turned around and walked upstairs.
As he entered the bedroom, his wife sat up on the bed.
''Has the matter been resolved?" Han Suyin asked him.
''Someone hacked into the documents that contained our family information but now, the information of a few family members is missing,'' Han Jing sat on the bed.
Han Suyin stiffened, ''Whose information is missing?"
Han Jing understood what his wife was thinking. He stroked her back and pulled her into his arms, ''Don't think too much about it,'' He did not want her to get her hopes high only to be disappointed later, ''Our family has made many enemies during the past decades and maybe, someone is just trying to poke our wounds.''
Han Suyin nodded, ''Is Han Sheng fine?"
''He was crying while holding that picture. I did not go to him,'' Talking about it, Han Jing seemed to have aged a lot as he said, ''Let's go meet that girl someday. Mei Zhen…''
Han Suyin smiled through the tears in her eyes, ''If Li Na was alive today, she would have been very happy. Father might have forgiven her because of Mei.''
''Yes, Mei'er is a good child,'' Han Jing smiled, ''Li Na stayed true to her words and she really named her daughter after our…'' He paused, noticing the tears welling up in his wife's eyes, ''I am exhausted. Let's go to bed early today,'' He stroked her back.
Han Suyin nodded as she closed her eyes.
Han Jing glanced out of the window while stroking her back, a lonely expression appeared in his eyes.
Outside their room, Han Jingyi who had ear pressed to the door stepped back, a cold expression remained in her eyes as she walked inside the room and locked the door.
She kicked the coffee table and the glass table smashed to pieces. She picked up the flower vase and threw it, the glass vase smashed against the wall.
''Ah…'' A piece of glass pierced through her delicate skin and she grabbed her bleeding hand before she slumped on the floor. She leaned back against the couch as she buried her face in her knees. Her shoulders trembled and she opened her eyes which had reddened at this point.
Tears trailed down her cheeks, ''What's mine can only be mine…'' She mumbled and walked towards the bedside table. She pulled open the drawer and took out an old picture. She glanced at the beautiful woman in a daze.
Long dark hair, starry eyes, a face that can make one's heart catch pace. Han Mei, the campus belle of Crystal University. That's how people would have recognized her.
''You are a jinx,'' Han Jingyi threw the picture to the floor as she stomped on it, ''A vixen…'' She stomped her heels on the picture until it was unrecognizable.
Only then did her heart calm down.
…
The next day.
''You really don't have work to do? If you want, I can stay back,'' Yu Mei said.
Jun Zixuan placed his hands on her shoulders and pushed her towards the entrance, ''No need, she is just coming to pick some of her stuff. I will help her out.''
''What stuff can Mia have?" Yu Mei was confused. ''Probably it's some dress… She is fond of those dresses.''
Jun Zixuan nodded, ''Indeed.''
Yu Mei turned to look at him with narrowed eyes, ''But why are you staying back for such a small matter? You two are acting like a suspicious pair of siblings who are going to be mischievous and wreak havoc…''
Jun Zixuan chuckled, ''You are overthinking,'' He was sure about himself, but he could not take Mia's guarantee.
Yu Mei rolled her eyes, ''Anyways, if you make any good food, keep it for me. And if she shares some good gossip with you, save that for me too.''
''Alright,'' Jun Zixuan nodded, ''But what if it is some secret?"
Yu Mei's mouth dropped open in disbelief, ''You… I feel so jealous all of a sudden. You only lied about you both being siblings. But now, you have gotten so involved in this that you both are even keeping secrets behind my back?'' She scoffed. Everyone was keeping secrets from her, ''I will just go to Luoluo and ask her to share some secrets with me,'' She turned around.
Jun Zixuan hugged her from the back and kissed her neck, ''I will tell you anything and everything okay? Don't be angry,'' He whispered.
She leaned back at him, ''But…'' She started with a sad tone, ''I was joking,'' She ended her words, catching him off guard.
Jun Zixuan was speechless.
She turned around and placed a soft kiss on his lips before she dashed away quickly.
He glanced at her retreating back. Has she gotten naughtier than before?
He let out a deep sigh before he turned around to walk upstairs.
''Hello, brother~"
A voice made him pause in his tracks.
