Half a month later, Shen Mo met with Ji Mingxuan’s lawyer.

　　When Ji Mingxuan said that to him in the hospital that day, he had already anticipated this day. Regardless of whether those words were true or false, since he had said them, it meant that the two of them could not continue their relationship.

　　But Shen Mo never expected that even for something like breaking up, Ji Mingxuan was unwilling to handle it personally, and only called a lawyer to talk to him.

　　Should we say he is too rational or too cold-blooded?

　　Or for Ji Mingxuan, it was just a contract from beginning to end. Now that the contract is invalid, of course he has to use the most appropriate method to resolve it.

　　Ji Mingxuan’s lawyer’s surname is Chen. He is a handsome young man with a professional demeanor. He shook Shen Mo’s hand and introduced himself.

　　After Shen Mo exchanged pleasantries with him, he asked, “Where is Ms. Ji?”

　　”She went abroad.” Lawyer Chen said as he took out documents from his briefcase, “As soon as Miss Ji’s condition stabilized, she was transferred abroad for treatment.”

　　Shen Mo never saw Ji Anan again. Now that he had heard about her, he felt relieved.

　　Lawyer Chen handed the documents he brought to Shen Mo one by one and said, “Mr. Shen, according to the agreement you signed with Mr. Ji that year, these are the parts you deserve.”

　　Shen Mo took a casual glance and saw some stocks and real estate. Although he had no idea what they were, he knew they must be worth a lot of money.

　　Ji Mingxuan is indeed a businessman, even his feelings are clearly marked with a price.

　　Shen Mo flipped through the documents indifferently and said, “Mr. Ji is really generous.”

　　Lawyer Chen smiled and agreed, “It has always been like this.”

　　He was so experienced, it was probably not the first time he had helped Ji Mingxuan with his breakup. Shen Mo didn’t think about it anymore, picked up the pen and asked, “Do I just need to sign?”

　　”Yes. Mr. Ji also said that if you have other requests, just let us know. However,” Lawyer Chen looked around and said, “This villa is where Miss Ji grew up…”

　　Shen Mo immediately understood and said, “I understand. I will pack up and move out in a few days.”

　　He was so considerate and tactful, Lawyer Chen felt relieved. He pointed to the documents on the table and said, “Mr. Ji is very generous. There are several properties with good structure and layout. After completing the formalities, Mr. Shen can move in at any time.”

　　Shen Mo nodded and lowered his head to sign.

　　He felt that for someone who had just broken up, he was acting quite calm.

　　Maybe it was because he and Ji Mingxuan never really started?

　　There has always been an ambiguous feeling, with some tiny flames burning to ashes before they even have a chance to start.

　　That’s fine.

　　Shen Mo was halfway through signing when he heard Lawyer Chen say, “By the way, Mr. Ji said that the things he gave you before are of course yours, but there is one thing he wants back.”

　　Shen Mo looked up and asked, “What is it?”

　　car?

　　Or a ring?

　　Shen Mo had no objection to either one, but Lawyer Chen said, “It’s the house in Jinxiu Villa.”

　　Shen Mo’s hand trembled, and the pen left a long mark on the paper, but he was unaware of it. He just opened his eyes wide and asked, “What did you say? What house?”

　　”Mr. Shen doesn’t know?” Lawyer Chen was even more surprised than him. He looked down at the documents and said confidently, “About three years ago, Mr. Ji transferred his house in Jinxiu Villa to your name.”

　　Shen Mo had heard the name Jinxiu Villa mentioned several times.

　　The first time was when Zhao Yi mistook him for the person who lived in Jinxiu Villa. The second time was when the driver Lao Wang said that Ji Mingxuan was drunk and yelled that he wanted to go to Jinxiu Villa.

　　It goes without saying that this house in Jinxiu Villa must be the place where Ji Mingxuan hides his mistress. How come it is inexplicably in his name now?

　　Could it be that Ji Mingxuan bought the entire building in one go for convenience and asked his lovers to live next to each other?

　　In any case, there must be something strange about this Jinxiu Villa.

　　Shen Mo turned the pen in his hand and said to Lawyer Chen: “I want to go over and take a look. Can you give me the key?”

　　Lawyer Chen was stunned, but still maintained a professional smile: “Shouldn’t the key be in Mr. Shen’s hands?”

　　Shen Mo then turned around.

　　Yes, since Ji Mingxuan gave him a house, of course he would not leave him the key, but why did he have no impression of it?

　　Three years ago…

　　It was the period of time that he had the vaguest memory of, not because of his bad memory, but because he was discouraged at the time and didn’t care about many things. Every day he watched the sun rise, and in the blink of an eye it was dark again, and he had no idea how the days passed.

　　Was that the time when Ji Mingxuan gave him the house?

　　Shen Mo himself couldn’t be sure. However, he had been living in this villa for the past few years. If he really had the key, it would definitely not be somewhere else. So after the conversation ended and Lawyer Chen left, he began to search through boxes and cabinets.

　　He was a nostalgic person and couldn’t bear to throw away many things. He found a lot of random things, such as a mobile phone he used a few years ago, a yellow diary, and some random doodles. Finally, he found a dusty box in the corner of the drawer.

　　It was one of those common gift boxes with a funny bow on the lid.

　　Shen Mo was stunned for a second after seeing this.

　　He had an impression of this box. He remembered that it was his birthday once, and Ji Mingxuan came to visit him in his rental apartment and gave it to him. Ji Mingxuan gave it casually, and he received it casually, and he couldn’t even remember whether he had opened it.

　　Maybe he just stuffed it into the drawer, or maybe he just looked at it but didn’t take it seriously. He only remembered that not long after that, his rent was due and he was evicted, and when he was homeless, he was taken back by Ji Mingxuan, and then there was the contract.

　　Shen Mo thought about it carefully and found that the timeline was a bit contradictory.

　　That is to say, before signing the contract, Ji Mingxuan had already given him a house? What was this? Was it a deposit?

　　He opened the box and saw that there was indeed a key inside. There was also a note attached with the address of the house in Jinxiu Villa. He was very familiar with the handwriting, and it was indeed written by Ji Mingxuan.

　　Shen Mo gently held the key and decided to go over and take a look.

　　Jinxiu Villa is in an excellent location. Although it is in the city center, it is quiet in the midst of the hustle and bustle. It is separated from the bustling city by a tree-lined boulevard, and has a unique atmosphere of tranquility and peace.

　　Shen Mo drove over and found Ji Mingxuan’s house according to the address.

　　Although three years had passed, fortunately the door lock had not been changed. Shen Mo opened the door and went in. He saw a four-bedroom house that was beautifully decorated and spotless everywhere, as if someone cleaned it frequently.

　　The kitchen and living room were fully furnished, the master bedroom and guest room were also decorated, and there were several sets of clothes in the closet, all in Ji Mingxuan’s size, so he probably stayed overnight here occasionally. Apart from that, there were no signs of other people living here.

　　Everything is normal.

　　Shen Mo was a little discouraged.

　　It’s like a person waiting to uncover a long-buried secret, only to find out that he has come up empty-handed.

　　The only room left to be looked at was the study. Shen Mo pushed open the door without any hope, but was stunned after just one look.

　　The study was converted into a studio, with the best lighting in the entire house. Various painting tools were scattered on the floor, and the walls were covered with all kinds of paintings.

　　There were landscapes, figures, rough sketches, and carefully framed paintings, but all of them were of the same style, and the signatures at the end were all the same two words.

　　——Shen Mo.
