Falling in Love With My Arranged-Marriage Husband-Chapter 116 - 90: 16 Years Ago, A Coincidence?
Chapter 116 -90: 16 Years Ago, A Coincidence?
Throughout the journey, Ji Sang and Yang Jun, mother and daughter, chatted happily. Ji Hanwen, who sat in the passenger seat, couldn’t get a word in, let alone Fu Yisi.
It was Ji Hanwen who worried that Yang Jun would be too tired and took the initiative to start a conversation, bringing up the silent Fu Yisi.
Ji Hanwen originally opposed the marriage between Ji Sang and Fu Yisi the most, thinking it was too hasty from the beginning. But Yang Jun insisted, and Ji Sang was willing, so he finally gave in.
But, as a man, he knew that Fu Yisi initially saw the marriage as nothing more than a helpless obligation. Now that he saw them together, they indeed seemed to be getting along harmoniously.
However, what started Ji Hanwen’s change of opinion about Fu Yisi was that phone call.
When a man begins to actively inquire about a woman’s past, it surely means he is interested. Because he is willing to spend time and thought on her. Especially for someone with the temperament of Fu Yisi.
Because Yang Jun had a good relationship with Ye Lin, she always had a favorable impression of Fu Yisi. Seeing him holding an umbrella for Ji Sang when they left the airport today made her even fonder of him.
“Xiao Si, I have heard from Ah Shang, we owe it to you for looking after her. Otherwise, who knows what she would’ve done with her stomach again.”
“Mom! I haven’t…”
She has been eating seriously too.
“Seriously? Don’t I know you? The moment you pick up the camera, what else can you think of? Let alone eating properly, you almost lost your life back then.”
Thinking back to when Ji Sang went to photograph a sunrise early in the morning, climbing a mountain without any protective fences, Yang Jun’s heart skipped a beat. In the end, she didn’t capture the sunrise and even nearly encountered a landslide due to sudden weather changes.
Ji Sang: …
“Mom! That was so long ago…”
While saying this, Ji Sang felt inexplicably guilty and subconsciously looked forward, catching Fu Yisi’s cool gaze in the rearview mirror.
“…”
“I don’t care how long ago it was, you are not to put yourself in such danger again.”
As the conversation turned to this topic, the usually graceful Yang Jun became passionate.
“Count for yourself, how many times have you put yourself in danger for photography? How many injuries, big or small, have you had?”
Ji Sang: …
The temperature inside the car seemed to drop suddenly, and Ji Sang felt as if Fu Yisi’s piercing gaze was about to burn her through the rearview mirror.
“Mom… Mom, let’s not talk about this,”
Ji Sang pleaded while pulling on Yang Jun’s hand, her tone carrying a hint of coquettishness.
She was afraid that if her mother continued, Fu Yisi’s look alone could kill her.
“Hmph”
Yang Jun turned her head, looking ahead.
“Xiao Si, you’ll have to help me keep an eye on her in the future. If she does those things again, just smash her camera.”
“Mom!”
Ji Sang became anxious.
Photography was not just a hobby or a career for her, it was her life. What should she do if Fu Yisi really kept an eye on her?
Without photography, the world would lose all its color for her.
Fu Yisi glanced at her indifferently from the rearview mirror and responded softly to Yang Jun’s words,
“Mom, rest assured, I’ll keep an eye on her for three meals a day. As for photography… if it really threatens her life, I won’t ignore it.”
“That’s good.”
Yang Jun nodded in satisfaction, glancing at Ji Sang.
“Did you hear that? From now on, prioritize your own safety and health above all else. Don’t end up regretting when it’s too late.”
What else could Ji Sang do?
Her always graceful mother was unusually firm on this matter, and Fu Yisi was even more so. Hearing all this, his gaze turned colder. Even her father, who had always doted on her, stood on their side.
“Oh”
Ah Shang did so reluctantly.
It was really not very likely for Ji Sang to give up photography.
“I’ll try my best not to go to dangerous places in the future, and I will only take pictures when I am sure my life is safe. Mom, is that okay?”
“Barely”
Yang Jun opened her mouth, seeming to choose her words.
After a moment, she sighed, lightly patting Ji Sang’s hand
“Ah Shang, your life and health are your own, you need to take responsibility for yourself”
As she said this, Yang Jun’s tone was filled with melancholy, and a trace of a hidden emotion flickered in her eyes. Ji Sang thought she was still concerned about the time Ji Sang was injured and hospitalized for a month, and feelings of guilt surged within her, gently embracing Yang Jun
“Mom, I will.”
“Mhm”
Yang Jun raised her hand and gently patted Ji Sang’s back, lifting her eyes and sharing a slight smile with Ji Hanwen, who turned his head from the passenger seat.
It was comfort, it was a release.
…
It was after all a long-haul flight; after the two families had dinner, they dispersed. Ji Hanwen and Yang Jun both needed to rest and recuperate.
As for Ji Sang, of course, she wanted to go back to the Ji Family home with them.
Not to mention the past half-year global trip to scout for locations, she hadn’t returned to the Ji Family home for over a month since coming back to the country, naturally missing it dearly.
And Fu Yisi, what else could he do?
His wife was returning to her parents’ home, and he could only follow along.
Luckily, the Ji Family home was always well-maintained by someone regularly, so even if the homeowners weren’t present for most of the year, it was still clean and tidy.
Ji Sang followed Yang Jun into the living room to sort through the things they brought back, while Fu Yisi was called into the study by Ji Hanwen.
Ji Hanwen was a university professor when he was young and moved into business later, so the study also had an academic style.
Once inside, Ji Hanwen didn’t speak, but went to the cabinet behind the desk, pulled out a document, and handed it to Fu Yisi.
It was the document signed when adopting Ji Sang, as well as all Ji Sang’s records from the orphanage.
“I don’t know if it will be of any use; I also found it strange at the time. The orphanage seemed not to understand much about the children’s circumstances, but Ah Jun really liked Ji Sang as a child. We didn’t think too much about it back then and just came back after completing the procedures.”
Ji Hanwen pushed his glasses up his nose
“At that time, I vaguely heard some rumors about that orphanage, but Ah Jun and I were afraid that probing into it might involve Ah Shang, so we didn’t dare to investigate. We just disguised the fact that we adopted her. However, I didn’t cover it up very rigorously; anyone determined to investigate would still be able to find out. Child, did your aunt… really disappear from there?”
Fu Yisi looked down and flipped through the pages. When he saw the name Tianxin Town, his gaze grew sharp
“Yes, the last address given was around there.”

“Now that you mention it, the timing could match.”
They adopted Ji Sang sixteen years ago, and Fu Zhixing also disappeared without a trace sixteen years ago.
With this thought, Ji Hanwen’s complexion darkened
“Do you and Old Fu suspect that the Yi Family was involved with the events of that year?”
“It’s not clear yet”
Fu Yisi said with a cool tone
“But now, it is necessary to look into them.”
“Still, be cautious, they haven’t completely shed their past, and…”
Ji Hanwen frowned
“I’m a bit worried about Ah Shang, if the events of that year drag her in.”
Now no one knows what happened back then, the sudden closure of Tianxin Orphanage, the fates of those children – although the Yi Family provided explanations, who knows how much of it was true or false.
