After a lot of persuasion, Shen Yi finally managed to convince Jiang Qi to have him discharged the following day. It had taken endless coaxing, calm reasoning, and a few stubborn arguments, but in the end Jiang Qi gave in. Now, standing outside the villa, Shen Yi looked at villa with relief in his eyes.
After a few seconds, he turned to Jiang Qi, and as he asked, "Your father wants me dead. Is it safe to live here?"
Jiang Qi reached out without hesitation and took his hand. He started leading him toward the entrance. "Don't worry about that," he replied calmly. "I'll… talk to him."
Shen Yi lowered his gaze, his lips pressing together. "Okay, but don't go against him because of me. I don't want to give him more reasons to hate me."
Jiang Qi glanced sideways, and a teasing smile tugged at his lips. "Does it bother you that my dad doesn't like you?"
