Fang Xiaonuan was so shocked that she almost dropped her phone. She turned to look at her husband. ¡°When did youe back?¡±
¡°Is that Liu Siyu?¡± Ji Lingchen asked.
Fang Xiaonuan nodded.
Ji Lingchen looked at his wife¡¯s lips, then slowly looked down.
Fang Xiaonuan immediately sensed danger and immediately put down her phone. She pulled the nket over herself and covered her head. ¡°Hubby, it¡¯ste. Go to bed.¡±
Ji Lingchen¡¯s lips curled into a smile as hey down, letting his little wife rest on his arm.
¡°Xiaonuan, how much longer do we have to spend dating?¡±
Then, he heard Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s breathing be steady. She had already fallen asleep.
Cuddling with Ji Lingchen was sofortable that she fell asleep as soon as shey down.
He nced at his little wife, who was sleeping soundly beside him. She was not just lying on his arm. She was even holding his hand. He chuckled softly.
The next day.
Ji Lingchen got out of bed and saw Ji Wen downstairs. ¡°Get over here immediately.¡±
Ji Wen knew why he was being summoned, so he went upstairs with his head down. As soon as he entered Ji Lingchen¡¯s study, he admitted his mistake without waiting for Ji Lingchen to speak, ¡°Uncle, I crashed into the little dark room. My aunt wasn¡¯t in the car.¡±
Ji Lingchen snorted and coldly said, ¡°You¡¯ve been nning this since high school. You¡¯ve finally done it. Useless.¡±
Ji Wen looked at his uncle in surprise. ¡°Uncle,¡± he said. ¡°How did you know that I¡¯ve been nning this since high school?¡±
Ji Lingchen sneered. Obviously, he would have picked up on that.
When Ji Wen was in high school, he would often go to the backyard and do calctions of how much force he would need to destroy that part of the building.
Ji Lingchen was not blind. He wanted to see how brave his nephew was, and if he could really knock it down. In the end, he waited and waited, but he did not go through with it. However, this year, the little dark room was finally destroyed. He did not even need to think about it. He knew from the start that Ji Wen was the culprit!
Ji Lingchen was not angry that he had destroyed the little dark room. He was, however, angry that he led his wife astray.

Chapter 243: Old Photos
¡°If you dare to bring your aunt along the next time you do something bad, I¡¯ll break your legs,¡± Ji Lingchen said.
¡°No!¡± Ji Wen shook his head in horror. ¡°I won¡¯t take her with me anymore!¡±
However, he also had to make sure that Fang Xiaonuan would not talk him into doing bad things either. Fang Xiaonuan was not the most obedient girl.
Ji Wen said, ¡°Uncle, you know that my rtionship with Fang Xiaonuan isn¡¯t ordinary, but¡¡±
¡°What?¡± Ji Lingchen was a little unhappy. How dare he say that he had an unusual rtionship with his wife? He even said that to his face.
¡°Although we¡¯ve known each other since we were young,¡± Ji Wen stopped to rephrase. That did not sound right either.
¡°That¡¯s right,¡± Ji Wen said. ¡°We¡¯ve been friends for so many years. I must say, she is not someone who likes to follow the rules.¡±
¡°I know,¡± Ji Lingchen replied after a moment of silence.
Ji Wen was shocked. His uncle knew it too?
¡°I asked you toe up because I want to ask you about someone else. Liu Siyu. Tell me everything you know about her.¡±
Ji Wen asked, ¡°Uncle, why do you want Siyu¡¯s information? If Fang Xiaonuan were to find out that you¡¯re asking about other women, she¡¯ll scratch up your face. Even if you¡¯re asking about her best friend.¡±
Ji Lingchen red at his nephew, a little angry. ¡°Then, you won¡¯t tell her. Hurry up and tell me!¡±
Ji Wen gave in to his uncle¡¯s imposing manner and honestly told him everything he knew.
Meanwhile, Fang Xiaonuan was not idle either.
She went straight to Feng Qi, took her hand, and said, ¡°Sister-inw, I want to see some of the family¡¯s old photos.¡±
¡°Why do you suddenly want to see the old photos?¡± Feng Qi was puzzled.
Fang Xiaonuan smiled. ¡°It¡¯s nothing. I just want to know what my husband used to look like.¡±
Feng Qi was smiling. Very few young people nowadays would try to get to know each other through photos. She put down what she was doing and led Fang Xiaonuan back to the bedroom. She then took out a thick photo album from a cab.
Feng Qi said, ¡°When Lingchen was young, he would only pose for a photo on his birthday. Later on, he wouldn¡¯t even do that.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan picked up the photo album and gently brushed off theyer of dust on it.
¡°No one really looks at this album, so I put it away,¡± Feng Qi said.
The two of them sat on the sofa and flipped through the photo album.
She opened the album, and the first photo was a family portrait of the Ji family.
Feng Qi pointed at the woman sitting on the stool in the photo. ¡°She¡¯s our mother-inw.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan nodded, ¡°She seems gentle.¡±
¡°That¡¯s right. She¡¯s the gentlest person I¡¯ve ever met.¡± As she spoke, Feng Qi got swept up by her memories.
The two of them continued to flip through the photo album, and two children slowly appeared in the photos.
Feng Qi said, ¡°The one in blue is Xiaowen, and the other one is¡¡±
Feng Qi looked at the little girl in the photo album and fell silent.
¡°This must be Xiaoyu,¡± Fang Xiaonuan said.
Feng Qi looked at Fang Xiaonuan in surprise.
¡°Sister-inw,¡± Fang Xiaonuan said to Feng Qi with a smile. ¡°You don¡¯t have to hide it from me. My husband has already told me everything.¡±
Ji Lingchen was not the sole reason she wanted to look through the photo album. In truth, she wanted to see what Ji Xiaoyu looked like.
Feng Qi sighed softly. ¡°Lingchen has too many things on his mind. Perhaps only you can make him happier. Xiaonuan, promise me that no matter what, you won¡¯t hurt Lingchen.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan smiled at Feng Qi and said, ¡°Sister-inw, you must be joking. I love him so much. How could I bear to hurt him? I promise that I will always be by his side.¡±
Feng Qi¡¯s gaze was profound.
¡°Sister-inw, tell me about Xiaoyu. My husband didn¡¯t tell me much,¡± Fang Xiaonuan said.
¡°Xiaonuan, I hope that you won¡¯t despise Lingchen after you find out about this,¡± Feng Qi said after some thought.
Fang Xiaonuan hurriedly nodded.
¡°Did you know that dad used to be involved in politics?¡± Feng Qi asked slowly.
Fang Xiaonuan had no idea that Old Master Ji was about the same age as her grandfather. To her, the things that Old Master Ji had experienced were as distant as history books.
Feng Qi said, ¡°Back then, Dad held an important position in the government. He was ruthless and upright. Many people hated him. After that, some people secretly reported him for corruption. The people from the prosecutor¡¯s office also deliberately dyed the investigation. They investigated him for a few months. In the end, dad was so angry that he quit his job the moment the investigation was over.¡±
During the investigation that year, Old Master Ji stayed at home for half a year, and he had almost dyed his child¡¯s studies because of some groundless charges.
A few decades ago, no school would ept a child with a corrupt official for a father.
After waiting for half a year, he was finally proven innocent.
The moment the announcement was made, Old Master Ji immediately resigned and moved to the business world.
Chapter 244 - Chapter 244: The Magical Use of Ji Wen
Chapter 244: The Magical Use of Ji Wen
Feng Qi said, ¡°My father is a powerful and smart man. He used his old connections to quickly pave his way in the business world. In just a few years, Ji Corporation grew bigger and bigger, but they got into trouble again. The bigger the Ji Corporation is, the more it earns. The more they earn, the less others earn.
¡°However, at that age, the family became more and more powerful. My mother-inw gave birth to Xiaoyu when she was older, and I gave birth to Xiaowen. The whole family celebrated and held all kinds of banquets. The Ji family would also bring the children to participate in such activities, and the two children became the Ji family¡¯s weakness.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan sat on the sofa, listening attentively.
Feng Qi continued, ¡°One day, Xiaowen and Xiaoyu were ying a game. A group of people rushed into the house and picked up Xiaowen, wanting to leave with him. Lingchen happened to be at home during the holidays. He was looking after the two children, and when he saw that Xiaowen was about to be taken away, he desperately held onto Xiaowen. Themotion was so loud that it got the entire family¡¯s attention. That group of people could only give up on kidnapping Xiaowen and turn around to take Xiaoyu away.¡±
¡°Where was my husband?¡± Fang Xiaonuan only cared about her husband.
Feng Qi thought back to that day. ¡°He grabbed one of the kidnapper¡¯s legs and tried to stop them from taking Xiaoyu away. The kidnappers ended up grabbing him as well.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan furrowed her brows. She did not expect to hear that her husband was kidnapped as well.
¡°Then why did Xiaoyu go missing in the end?¡± Fang Xiaonuan asked.
Feng Qi shook her head. She did not know. At that time, the whole family was in a panic. Xiaowen was almost kidnapped. Her mind was nk. When she came back to her senses, she heard from her family that the kidnappers had asked the Ji family for a ransom amount of 10 billion.
Old Master Ji immediately called the police, and the kidnapper sent him a photo of Lingchen. He was covered in blood and looked like he had been beaten up. Any parent would not be able to take seeing their child in that state. When she saw her son and daughter covered in blood, Mrs. Ji fainted immediately.
Later, the Ji family gathered 10 billion in cash ording to the kidnappers¡¯ request and sent it to the location they were given.
However, only Ji Lingchen was returned, and Ji Xiaoyu disappeared.
¡°What happened after that?¡± Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s eyes were filled with worry.
Feng Qi said, ¡°Lingchen was saved by the Lin family. Lin Rou¡¯s father saved him. That¡¯s why our family has been helping the Lin family all these years. It was only after you married Lingchen that the Ji family cut off all ties with the Lin family.
¡°Not long after Xiaoyu disappeared, Mrs. Ji became bedridden with a serious illness and passed away. From then on, Lingchen med himself for not being able to protect his sister. He went to look for Xiaoyu every day even while he was wearing his hospital gown. His mother¡¯s death was an even greater blow to him. He felt that he was useless, and that his mother died because of him.
¡°When he was 13 years old, he moved out and started living alone in Spirit Creek Vi. He didn¡¯t ept anyone¡¯s help. Once, I went to wash his clothes for him, but he chased me out. He doesn¡¯t let us into Spirit Creek Vi without his permission, not even Dad.
¡°Xiaonuan, since he fell in love with you, you both might end up moving to Spirit Creek Vi someday. I hope you can give him a home. Don¡¯t let him be alone again or he might ruminate about Xiaoyu.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan nodded solemnly. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, sister-inw. I¡¯ll give him a home. He¡¯s also someone that I can rely on.¡±
Even though Feng Qi was his sister-inw, she was still worried about Ji Lingchen. There were a few times when Ji Lingchen spent the holidays by himself, refusing toe home for New Year¡¯s dinner.
Left with no choice, Feng Qi could only lie to Ji Wen. ¡°Son, go and do something bad.¡±
¡°Mom, is there something wrong with my brain or yours?¡± Ji Wen asked.
Feng Qi pointed at the chandelier, and said to Ji Wen, ¡°Son, take a stick and hit themp down.¡±
Ji Wen looked at the chandelier. Why did she want him to knock it down? But Feng Qi insisted that he did so. Ji Wen was also young at the time, so he did as he was told.
Then, his mother, who had forced him into misbehaving, picked up the phone and called Ji Lingchen. ¡°Lingchen,e back and take care of your nephew. He¡¯s so naughty that he knocked down the chandelier and almost hurt us.¡±
Ji Wen was speechless.
Not long after, Ji Lingchen returned home, grabbed Ji Wen, and gave him a good beating.
On New Year¡¯s Eve, the entire house was filled with the sound of Young Master Ji crying. However, no one in the Ji family was angry. Instead, their faces were full of joy. Only Ji Wen, this unlucky child, could only stand and eat his New Year¡¯s Eve dinner because his butt hurt too much.
In the days that followed, Feng Qi continued to fool her son. ¡°Xiaowen, listen to your mother. Go and take a walk.¡±
¡°I won¡¯t!¡±
They had no choice but to let Ji Kangde handle it. Later, Ji Lingchen returned home, and Ji Wen got beaten again.
Chapter 245 - 245 Think of it as Faith
245 Think of it as Faith
Later on, Ji Wen had figured out what his family was thinking. Every Spring Festival, he would hide outside and invite Liu Siyu and Fang Xiaonuan to spend the new year with him. If he went home, his family would make him do bad things. Even if he did notply, he would be beaten up for no reason. One Spring Festival, his family called him toe home, but he refused to go back.
Seeing that Ji Wen was noting home, Feng Qi had an idea and called Ji Lingchen. ¡°Lingchen, Xiaowen is missing. He¡¯s not picking up his phone either.¡±
Not long after, a Maybach picked up the ¡°lost¡± nephew after finding him wandering an empty street. Ji Lingchen did not even need to get out of the car. As soon as Ji Wen saw the license te, he was scared to tears and got in the car himself.
It was fate. Fang Xiaonuan was there that day. She was wearing thick clothes and a scarf that covered half of her face as she watched Ji Lingchen¡¯s car drive past her.
Ji Lingchen had not noticed the little girl who was dressed like a penguin standing on the street. Perhaps their fate was predestined. The two of them chatted for a long time before they continued to flip through the photo album.
Mayor Ji saw the two of them as soon as he entered the door. ¡°Xiaonuan, you¡¯re here?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°Big brother, I¡¯m looking at some old photos. My husband and Xiaoyu are in them.¡±
Mayor Ji nced at the photo album and sat opposite the two.
Mayor Ji hesitated for a moment before sighing softly. He said to Fang Xiaonuan in a meaningful tone, ¡°Xiaonuan, Lingchen will only listen to you now. You mentioned Xiaoyu. I assume that my wife told you everything that happened. I¡¯m begging you. Please advise Lingchen to give up and stop searching. If this goes on, he¡¯ll really go crazy.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan shook her head, her gaze steady. ¡°Big brother, I¡¯m sorry. I can¡¯t promise you this. I know you¡¯re doing this for his own good, but I choose to believe him. I won¡¯t persuade him to give up. As long as he wants to continue looking, I¡¯ll support him unconditionally and be by his side through it all.¡±
¡°Searching alone would be hard. With me by his side, my husband won¡¯t go crazy even if he spends the rest of his life searching for her.¡±
Hearing this, Mayor Ji went silent.
Feng Qi looked at her sister-inw and patted Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s hand. ¡°We feel very guilty about Xiaoyu going missing. If it wasn¡¯t for Xiaowen, Xiaoyu wouldn¡¯t have gone missing, and Mom wouldn¡¯t have passed away.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan was understanding and consoled her self-ming sister-inw. ¡°Those people went after Xiaowen because he¡¯s the eldest grandson of the Ji family. Kidnapping him was more useful than kidnapping Xiaoyu. My husband was young back then, so he could only save one of them. If Xiaowen was kidnapped and if he disappeared for so many years, you wouldn¡¯t be able to survive it, sister-inw.¡±
In the end, Feng Qi might have fallen ill from longing.
No matter who went missing, Ji Lingchen would still feel that it was his fault and me himself.
Mayor Ji hesitated for a long time before he slowly said, ¡°But Xiaonuan, how do we find someone who might already be dead?¡±
¡°It¡¯s okay,¡± Fang Xiaonuan said after some thought. ¡°We can have faith as long as we¡¯re alive.¡±
After she finished speaking, she stood up and took advantage of their daze to secretly hide a photograph behind her phone. ¡°Big brother, sister-inw, I¡¯ll head back first.¡±
As soon as she left the room, she met Ji Wen, who had juste out of Ji Lingchen¡¯s study.
The two of them looked at each other.
¡°Why were you with my mother?¡±
¡°What were you doing in my husband¡¯s study?¡±
The two of them questioned each other at the same time.
However, neither of them seemed willing to tell the other what they had done, so they could only stare at each other.
After that, the two of them walked past each other, they went to meet the family members they were looking for.
Fang Xiaonuan entered her husband¡¯s study, while Ji Wen went to his parents ¡®bedroom.
¡°Hubby, why did you ask Ji Wen toe here?¡±
¡°We were talking about the little dark room. Where did you go?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s eyes darted around, and she said yfully, ¡°I¡¯m not telling you.¡±
Today, the ne on her neck was glistening brightly. Ji Lingchen¡¯s mood brightened when he saw it. He sat on the chair and opened his arms. ¡°Come here.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan pursed her lips and ran into her husband¡¯s arms with a smile.
On the other hand, in Feng Qi¡¯s bedroom.
¡°What were you doing just now?¡± Feng Qi asked.
Ji Wen said, ¡°What else could I be doing? Uncle was scolding me in the study. It was so loud. Didn¡¯t you hear it?¡±
Ji Wen poured himself a ss of water and said casually, ¡°Mom, Dad, there¡¯s something I want to discuss with you.¡±
¡°What is it?¡± Feng Qi said as she put away the photo album.
¡°I want to move out and live by myself,¡± Ji Wen said.
He no longer felt that this house was right for him. He felt that Fang Xiaonuan and his uncle would not be moving out for now. If he were to continue living here, he would be beaten to death one day!
Chapter 246 - 246 Buying a Car
246 Buying a Car
¡°That¡¯s impossible,¡± Feng Qi said, immediately rejecting his decision.
Ji Wen said, ¡°Mom, my uncle has been here all this time. I don¡¯t have to do anything ¡®bad¡¯ to keep him here.¡±
¡°You want to live on your own? Who¡¯s going to drive your aunt to school?¡± Feng Qi said indifferently. ¡°She won¡¯t let the chauffeur drive her.¡±
Ji Wen was on the verge of breaking down. ¡°So, you¡¯re insisting that I stay at home? Just to be Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s driver?¡±
Feng Qi then realized that her words had hurt her son, so she immediately exined, ¡°I can take care of you better if you stay here.¡±
¡°You¡¯re taking care of Fang Xiaonuan, right?¡± Ji Wen asked.
Feng Qiughed once, sounding guilty.
In the afternoon, Ji Lingchen took his wife to buy a car, and Ji Wen came along.
¡°Xiaonuan, the Bentley looks good. Let¡¯s go and take a look.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan nced at him with some disdain. ¡°I don¡¯t like it. I don¡¯t want it.¡±
¡°I want it,¡± Ji Wen said.
¡°You wish,¡± Fang Xiaonuan replied.
Ji Wen was speechless.
¡°You can¡¯t just look at the car¡¯s exterior,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
¡°But if I don¡¯t like the exterior, I won¡¯t feelfortable in it,¡± Fang Xiaonuan said.
¡°How about a sports car?¡± Ji Lingchen asked. ¡°It¡¯s nice, right?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan nodded in surprise.
¡°Do you want it?¡± Ji Lingchen asked.
Fang Xiaonuan frowned and shook her head.
With a smile on his face, Ji Lingchen held his wife¡¯s hand and walked to a Bentley.
The regional manager walked beside them and enthusiastically exined the various advantages and functions of each car.
Fang Xiaonuan squeezed her husband¡¯s palm and looked at him with a dazed expression, as if she was using her eyes to say that she could not understand him at all.
The man understood the pros and cons of a V8 engine, and he even knew what it meant to close the tank. However, there was only one question in Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s mind: What were all these?
Ji Wen was also listening attentively.
Ji Lingchen interrupted the regional manager and said to his nephew, ¡°Exin it to Xiaonuan in a simple and clear way.¡±
¡°What are the benefits?¡±
Ji Lingchen coldly looked at him, and Ji Wen instantly cowered, fantasizing about beating up the couple.
Ji Wen said, ¡°To put it simply, this car was made by a high-end brand. The seats are veryfortable, it¡¯s easy to operate, the design is perfect, the configuration is first-ss, and the exhaust is also very good. You can just set the speed and just follow the car in front of you. There¡¯s nothing to worry about and it is fuel efficient.¡±
Ji Wen felt that it was enough for Fang Xiaonuan to understand.
After he exined it, Fang Xiaonuan grasped the information immediately.
¡°But this car is long and wide. I don¡¯t think I would be able to reverse into a parking space,¡± Fang Xiaonuan said.
Ji Wen directly opened the car door and pointed at the disy. ¡°A 360-degree camera for reversing. Even if a pig is driving, he¡¯ll be able to park it.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan clenched her fists tightly!
Ji Wen saw Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s hands and blinked. ¡°In short, this car is good in every way. It¡¯s especially suitable for newbies like you.¡±
Ji Lingchen was quite satisfied with the car, so he asked, ¡°Do you like it?¡±
¡°Hubby,¡± Fang Xiaonuan said honestly, ¡°This car is really expensive. It¡¯ll cost you a lot.¡±
Ji Lingchen smiled lovingly. ¡°It¡¯s nothing. I¡¯ve already prepared the money. Once you¡¯ve mastered your driving skills, I¡¯ll give you a luxury car every year.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan smiled as she hugged her husband. ¡°Hubby, you¡¯re going to spoil me if you keep going like this.¡±
¡°That¡¯s kind of the point.¡± Ji Lingchen wrapped his arm around his wife¡¯s waist.
Beside them, Ji Wen¡¯s face was sour as he muttered to the ground, ¡°Pfft, showing off your love in public, how disgusting!¡±
He did not dare to say it any louder.
Ji Lingchen¡¯s love for his wife convinced him to buy a luxury car worth a few million for her to use as a practice car. He even said that if she does well and her skills improve, she¡¯ll be given a new luxury car every year.
This made Ji Wen envious. He had been driving his car for three years, and he had always wanted to change it, but he did not dare to say it.
Ji Lingchen said to the regional manager, ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll take this one.¡± After saying that, he took his wife¡¯s hand and went to look at the other cars. Ji Wenined in a low voice as he followed the two.
¡°Hurry up and get over here. I¡¯ll show you the car now.¡± Ji Lingchen did not turn around, but his words were definitely aimed at the person trailing behind him.
Ji Wen was stunned.
¡°What? You don¡¯t need a new car?¡±
Ji Wen came back to his senses but he was shocked. He was, in fact, stunned by this. He quickly walked over and grabbed his uncle¡¯s arm. ¡°Uncle, are you really going to buy me a car?¡±
The jealous Fang Xiaonuan reacted. ¡°Xiaowen, take your dog paws away. Only I can scratch my husband¡¯s arm.¡±
Ji Lingchen was very satisfied with his wife¡¯s reaction. In order to make her happy, he decisively shook off Ji Wen¡¯s hand.
Ji Wen could not care less about that now. He was consumed with the idea of getting a new car. He was so excited that he almost jumped up and down. He was so happy that he did not know what to say. He was so excited that he wanted to hug his uncle. However, that would make a certain someone extremely jealous even though he was her nephew.
Chapter 247 - 247 Borrowing Books
247 Borrowing Books
¡°Uncle, I love you.¡±
Seeing how excited he was, Fang Xiaonuanughed as well. ¡°My husband is just buying you a car. Do you have to be so excited?¡±
His nephew¡¯s joy also touched Ji Lingchen. He smiled and said, ¡°You¡¯ll be your aunt¡¯s chauffeur and you¡¯ll teach her how to drive. This is a gift. Go pick a car.¡±
Ji Lingchen handed the bank card to his nephew. ¡°You can pay right after you¡¯ve made your choice. Pay for your aunt¡¯s car as well.¡±
He was going to take his wife out for a test drive.
Ji Wen took Ji Lingchen¡¯s bank card and immediately turned around to find his beloved car.
That night, Fang Xiaonuan and Ji Wen each drove a new car home.
Old Master Ji felt that his second daughter-inw had grown up. She had learned how to drive. He looked at her and asked secretly, ¡°Xiaonuan, when are you free? Can you take me out for a good meal?¡± He had not even gotten to eat a single one of the things she had promised him.
¡°My husband can¡¯t find out,¡± Fang Xiaonuan replied softly. ¡°When he goes out for a social function one day, we¡¯ll sneak out.¡±
Old Master Ji was getting more and more satisfied with his daughter-inw. He said excitedly, ¡°Alright!¡±
Ji Lingchen pretended not to hear their secret n to go out for a good meal.
The next day.
Ji Wen found out about what had happened to Liu Siyu in her hometown over the weekend.
¡°F*ck!¡± he said excitedly. ¡°What kind of friends did I make?¡±
One was the hot-tempered Fang Xiaonuan, who would hit anyone she wanted, and the other was Liu Siyu, who had a big mouth and a taste for dirty jokes. However, Fang Xiaonuan clearly looked like a soft and cute little girl. Liu Siyu also looked very innocent.
Of the three of them, he was the only one who was normal. In terms of fighting, he could not beat Fang Xiaonuan. In terms of dirty jokes, he did not know as many as Liu Siyu.
Liu Siyu said, ¡°Don¡¯t even. My brother nagged at me the whole day yesterday. I¡¯m going deaf.¡±
¡°Did Big Brother Liu beat you up?¡±
Liu Siyu said, ¡°He didn¡¯t want to hit me, but he was very angry.¡±
Liu Siyan raised his hand a few times, but he could not bear to hit her. In the end, he always put down his hand. When he saw the way she curled up into a little ball, with her hands out in surrender and her pitiful expression, he could not bring himself to p her. In the end, he had angered himself half to death.
Now, her two good friends had bought cars, but she did not dare to ask her brother for one. After all, she had provoked him and she had not ironed things over with him yet. She could not say anything.
¡°Xiaoyu, why don¡¯t I drive you home today?¡± Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s eyes darted around.
¡°No need, my brother¡¯s picking me up,¡± Liu Siyu said.
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°You haven¡¯t ridden in my car yet. I¡¯ll give you a ride. I haven¡¯t been to your house in a long time.¡±
Ji Wen was confused and made trouble. ¡°Aren¡¯t you going back to your parents¡¯ house with uncle tonight? Aren¡¯t you afraid that you¡¯ll bete if you send her home?¡±
Under the table, Fang Xiaonuan stomped on Ji Wen¡¯s foot with all her might. ¡°Watch your mouth and don¡¯t talk nonsense!¡±
Ji Wen felt wronged. What did he do?
Liu Siyu also said, ¡°Xiaonuan, you can drive me another day. I have to be good for a while. I really can¡¯t make my brother angry. Otherwise, he might keel over from the anger.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°I can go to your house with you and hang out for a while. With me there, your brother won¡¯t embarrass you.¡±
Liu Siyu scratched her head and looked at Fang Xiaonuan in confusion. Why did she feel like there was something off about her?
¡°Tell me the truth. Did you fight with your husband again? Do want to take refuge in my house?¡±
Ji Wen¡¯s mouth twitched again. ¡°No, she was still kissing her husband in front of me before she left this morning. They¡¯re definitely not fighting.¡±
Liu Siyu was not satisfied. ¡°Xiaonuan, do you have to kiss your husband before you go out every day? Ah, you¡¯ve really grown up. You even know how to kiss now. Quick, tell me about it.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan gritted her teeth and turned to her daft nephew. ¡°Xiaowen, I¡¯m going to kill you!¡±
Ji Wen shrunk his neck and cowered. Should he just say nothing?
Fang Xiaonuan turned to Liu Siyu, ¡°Actually, I want to borrow one of your books.¡±
Liu Siyu¡¯s eyes immediately lit up, ¡°Something¡¯s up...¡±
Fang Xiaonuan gave a perfunctory smile and went along with what she thought. ¡°Yes, that.¡±
Liu Siyu said, ¡°You should have said so earlier. I definitely have books for you. Come home with me today.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan had finally achieved her goal.
In the afternoon, when Liu Siyan came to pick up his younger sister, Fang Xiaonuan followed. As expected, Liu Siyu was very obedient in the car, and Liu Siyan did not reprimand her.
Chapter 248 - 248 Overbearing CEO
248 Overbearing CEO
When they reached home, Liu Siyu held Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s hand and led her back to her room. She knelt on the floor and took out a bag from under the bed. It was filled with her collection of novels.
Fang Xiaonuan, however, pulled out a book called ¡°The Hungry Empire¡± from the bookcase beside her. ¡°I want to borrow this book.¡±
¡°What?¡± Liu Siyu was stunned. ¡°You don¡¯t want to read a novel about an overbearing CEO?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°Isn¡¯t my husband an overbearing CEO? I¡¯ll just look at him. Why do I need to read novels?¡±
Liu Siyu nced at the book Fang Xiaonuan was holding and felt that something was amiss. She stuffed the novels back under the bed, walked up to Fang Xiaonuan, and took the book. ¡°Why do you want to read this book?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°My husband asked me to learn more about history. I heard that this book talks about the history of the Sun Empire through delicious food. It sounds interesting, so I¡¯m checking it out.¡±
She sounded so sincere that she almost believed it herself.
Liu Siyu said, ¡°If you said that you wanted to read this book, I would have brought it to school tomorrow. You wouldn¡¯t have toe here to get it!¡±
Fang Xiaonuan replied, ¡°Coming over to get it is a form of respect for this book.¡±
¡°I think there¡¯s something wrong with your brain,¡± Liu Siyu said.
¡°Hmph, I¡¯ll let you off today on ount of how badly your brother has scolded you recently,¡± Fang Xiaonuan replied.
The two friends sat on the bed and began to chat.
¡°Xiaoyu, why don¡¯t you have any photos of your childhood in your room?¡± Fang Xiaonuan purposefully.
¡°The photos of me from when I was younger don¡¯t look very good. So, I only have photos from my older years,¡± Liu Siyu replied.
¡°As your best friend and practically sister, howe I don¡¯t know what you looked like as a child? Hurry up and show me your childhood photos.¡± This was Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s true motive. She wanted to see Liu Siyu¡¯s childhood photos. This was the only way to make her husband give up the idea that Liu Siyu was Ji Xiaoyu.
¡°Alright, give me a moment. I¡¯ll go ask my brother where he put the photo album.¡± Liu Siyu left the room after she finished speaking. She looked around and finally saw Liu Siyan, who was downstairs cooking.
¡°Brother, where¡¯s our photo album? Xiaonuan and I want to see the photos.¡±
¡°Why do you want to see the photos?¡±
¡°I just want to look for ugly photos of my childhood. Tell me where they are and I¡¯ll go get them myself,¡± Liu Siyu said.
¡°It¡¯s in our mother¡¯s study room,¡± Liu Siyan said. ¡°Go and look for it.¡±
¡°Alright,¡± Liu Siyu replied. She jogged to her mother¡¯s study.
As soon as she left, Liu Siyan turned off the stove. He went upstairs and saw that his sister¡¯s door was closed. He narrowed his eyes, feeling inexplicably uneasy.
After a while, Liu Siyu returned to her room.
¡°Xiaonuan, you can take a look.¡± After she finished speaking, she opened the photo album.
Fang Xiaonuan and Liu Siyu sat together and flipped through the childhood pictures.
¡°This was when I was just born. My mom was so tired that she almost fainted, but she was still kissing me.¡±
In the photo, a woman who was sweating profusely was kissing a baby.
¡°This is a photo of me when I was one month old, and this is a photo of me when I was one hundred days old,¡± Liu Siyu exined.
¡°Xiaoyu, do you have any more photos of you when you were older?¡± Fang Xiaonuan suddenly asked.
¡°What¡¯s the hurry? Don¡¯t you want to see my ugly photos? You should view them chronologically!¡± Liu Siyu said.
Fang Xiaonuan had nothing to say. She anxiously wanted to flip through the pages.
¡°This is a picture of me when I was three years old. The one holding me is my brother,¡± Liu Siyu continued. It was a picture of Liu Siyan when she was in school. It was a parent-teacher meeting that day, and her parents had carried her to the meeting. Before leaving the school, Liu Siyan posed for a picture with his sister in his arms.
Liu Siyu told Fang Xiaonuan the story behind every photo.
¡°This is when I was almost four years old. My parents took my brother and me on a trip¡±
¡°Where¡¯s a photo of when you were five?¡±
At this moment, someone knocked on the door.
Then, Liu Siyu¡¯s bedroom door was pushed open. Liu Siyan shouted at the two of them, ¡°Xiaoyu, Xiaonuan,e out and eat.¡±
Liu Siyu turned to look at her brother. ¡°Brother,¡± she said. ¡°Why did you barge in without knocking?¡±
Liu Siyan said, ¡°Cut the cr*p and eat quickly. I have to go to the police stationter and won¡¯t be home tonight. Auntie will be here soon. She¡¯ll apany you tonight.¡±
¡°Brother Liu, I won¡¯t be eating here,¡± Fang Xiaonuan said. ¡°My husband will being over to pick me up in a while. We¡¯re going to visit my parents.¡±
Then, she pulled Liu Siyu¡¯s attention back to the photos.
Just as Liu Siyu was about to turn the page, Liu Siyan closed the photo album. He frowned, clearly unhappy. ¡°Look at it after dinner or don¡¯t look at it at all.¡±
Chapter 249 - 249 Not Alone
249 Not Alone
Liu Siyu pouted and wanted to resist, but when she saw Liu Siyan¡¯s irrefutable gaze, she was afraid. ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll continue looking at it after dinner.¡±
She pulled Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s hand. ¡°Let¡¯s go. Let¡¯s go eat. My brother cooked.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan nced at Liu Siyan, then shifted her gaze to the photo album. She wanted to ask, but she was afraid of rming the Liu family. No matter what, the two of them were good friends, and she could not go too far. Moreover, she still felt very guilty for using her best friend today.
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°Xiaoyu, I won¡¯t be eating here. My husband will being to pick me up soon. I¡¯ll wait by the door. You guys go eat.¡± With that said, Fang Xiaonuan turned around and was about to leave.
Liu Siyu and Liu Siyan stood up to send her off.
After waiting at the entrance for a while, Ji Lingchen¡¯s car arrived.
He knew what his wife meant to do. She wanted him toe and see Liu Siyu in person so that he could dispel his suspicions about her. He was very grateful for his wife¡¯s kindness and drove over personally.
¡°My husband¡¯s here to pick me up. I¡¯m leaving now.¡±
Ji Lingchen opened the car door and saw a girl who was about the same height and figure as his wife, as well as Captain Liu, whom he had met a few times.
He stepped forward and shook hands with Liu Siyan. ¡°Hello, I¡¯m Ji Lingchen. I¡¯m Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s husband.¡±
Liu Siyan said, ¡°I¡¯ve heard a lot about you. As a member of this nation, who wouldn¡¯t recognize you, CEO Ji. I¡¯m the police captain, Liu Siyan.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan looked at the two of them and felt that the atmosphere was not quite right. She quickly went forward and clutched her husband¡¯s arm to divert his attention and make him look at Liu Siyu. ¡°Hubby, this is my best friend, and Xiaowen¡¯s good friend for many years, Liu Siyu.¡±
Ji Lingchen had caught Liu Siyu at Silver Field. She looked at him awkwardly and hid behind her brother in fear.
Ji Lingchen looked at her but did not say anything.
¡°I¡¯m here to pick up Xiaonuan. We¡¯ll get going first. We should meet up again in the future.¡± Ji Lingchen¡¯s expression was calm, as if this was his first time meeting Liu Siyu.
Liu Siyu nodded and watched the car leave with her friend. After the car drove away, she frowned as she sensed dangerous energying from her brother.
¡°Xiaoyu, follow me into the house.¡± He turned to his sister.
¡°Alright,¡± Liu Siyu said.
On the way back to Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s old home, she asked, ¡°Did you find anything?¡±
Ji Lingchen did not reveal his true thoughts. Instead, he gave the answer his wife wanted, ¡°No, I didn¡¯t.¡±
In the next few days, Fang Xiaonuan worked hard to rid her best friend of his suspicions and to help her husband see what was real. Whenever she was free, she would visit the Liu family.
Old Master Ji was jealous. ¡°You haven¡¯t even brought me out to eat. You just keep going out with your best friend. What is this?¡±
That day, Fang Xiaonuan went to the Liu residence again. Liu Siyan was not at home, so no one disturbed the two of them. They opened the photo album that they had not finished looking at that day.
Liu Siyu pointed at the photo. ¡°This is a photo of me when I was young.¡±
There was a caption on the photo. It said, ¡°Liu Siyu, five years old.¡±
In this photo, Liu Siyu had no bangs, but Ji Xiaoyu had neat bangs. The two children did not look simr at all. There was no need to be suspicious of her anymore. Fang Xiaonuan was already certain that Liu Siyu was not her sister-inw. Even if the photos were fake, they could not have produced fake photos for more than a decade, right? Moreover, there were photos of her since she was young.
Fang Xiaonuan asked, ¡°Are there any photos of when you were six?¡±
¡°Don¡¯t you remember?¡± Liu Siyu asked. ¡°Didn¡¯t I tell you that I had chickenpox that year? I was covered in it.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan had indeed heard Liu Siyu mention that she had not taken any photos that year.
Chickenpox was an infectious disease, and no one dared to touch her. No one was invited to her house to take photos with her on her birthday.
She continued to look at the photos taken when Liu Siyu was seven years old.
¡°The one with cream all over the face is you?¡± Fang Xiaonuan asked, pointing at the person in the photo.
Liu Siyu nodded. ¡°That¡¯s right. It was my brother¡¯s birthday that year. I touched my brother¡¯s face with a piece of cake, and he didn¡¯t hold back either. He pped the entire piece of cake on my face. My parentsughed like crazy and took this picture of me.¡±
As she continued to look through them, Liu Siyu¡¯s face gradually grew longer. Then, she saw a photo of her in junior high school. That face matched the face Fang Xiaonuan remembered.
¡°Xiaoyu, I¡¯m sorry,¡± Fang Xiaonuan said.
Liu Siyu was surprised by the sudden apology. ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan did not exin and went to the bathroom to wash her face. After she came out, she wanted to take a taxi to meet up with her husband.
At the same time, Ji Lingchen was holding a photo of Liu Siyu taken when she was young. He looked at it without saying a word, and Assistant Liu hesitated about continuing.
¡°Continue,¡± Ji Lingchen said.
Chapter 250 - 250 Foodie
250 Foodie
Assistant Liu continued, ¡°The records surrounding Liu Siyu¡¯s birth are veryplete. We¡¯ve visited Secretary Liu¡¯s former colleagues, Liu Siyu¡¯s hometown, and Liu Siyu¡¯s former ssmates. We can confirm that Liu Siyu is indeed a child of the Liu family.¡±
¡°Ms. Liu Siyu has never gone missing. We¡¯ve also asked around and shown Ms. Xiaoyu¡¯s photo. The neighbors nearby all said that they¡¯ve never seen miss Xiaoyu, so there¡¯s a high chance that Liu Siyu isn¡¯t Ms. Xiaoyu.¡±
Ji Lingchen stared at the photo.
After a while, he saw the young woman in the private elevator through the surveince camera. He put away the photo. ¡°Leave. Xiaonuan will be here soon. Don¡¯t mention this to her.¡±
Assistant Liu turned around to leave, and Fang Xiaonuan happened to reach the door at the same time. She pushed it open and shouted, ¡°Hubby!¡±
¡°You¡¯re here.¡± Ji Lingchen smiled when he saw her.
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°Hubby, I¡¯ve already investigated. Xiaoyu isn¡¯t your sister. I¡¯ve looked through all her photos. It¡¯s definitely not her.¡±
Ji Lingchen picked up a drink, unscrewed the cap, and handed it to his little wife.
¡°You must be mistaken.¡± Fang Xiaonuan took a sip of her drink.
¡°Yes, I was wrong,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
¡°Xiaonuan, shall we go on a date?¡± he turned off hisputer.
¡°You want to go on a date?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan and her husband went on a date once every two to three days. This made her feel that dating was a very normal thing, and she no longer looked forward to it as much as she had before. One time, when she was about to fall asleep, her husband woke her and took her to a mountaintop to look at the stars. ¡°Looking at the stars is also a date,¡± her husband had said.
Once, she said that she was bored and had nothing to do at home. Her husband immediately took her to Happy Valley and they hung out there for the whole day. Only when she returned home, it urred to her that she had ss that day.
¡°You¡¯re the principal. Who would dare to say that you¡¯re skipping ss?¡±
¡°Hubby,¡± Fang Xiaonuan said eloquently, ¡°Even if I don¡¯t go to school, I¡¯ll still get a graduation certificate. It¡¯s because I¡¯m the principal, right?¡± Ji Lingchen was once again at a loss for words.
During this period, Fang Xiaonuan would sleep soundly every time they visited the cinema. She had no interest in going to Happy Valley, and she was also listless when she went to see the sea. Only when she ate meat would she be full of energy. She could spend hours eating at Shuxiang Garden and eat until the dessert shops closed.
¡°You¡¯re a glutton!¡± Ji Lingchen concluded.
Fang Xiaonuan looked at her husband with an innocent expression. ¡°What? You can¡¯t afford it? I can let someone else take care of that. ¡±
Ji Lingchen looked at his wife as he embraced her. He said softly, ¡°I can take care of you. I can also take care of a little glutton.¡±
Ji Lingchen also realized that his kitten did not appreciate art that much.
One day, Ji Lingchen asked, ¡°Xiaonuan, do you know what Chopin does for a living?¡±
¡°I think he¡¯s an artist,¡± Fang Xiaonuan replied.
¡°Who¡¯s Van Gogh?¡±
¡°He ys music?¡±
¡°Who¡¯s Edison?¡±
¡°You don¡¯t even know this? He¡¯s a very famous inventor. He was the one who invented the light bulb!¡± Fang Xiaonuan said with slight disdain.
She suddenly felt that her husband¡¯s IQ was not that high!
Ji Lingchen felt relieved. Fortunately, his little wife still picked up some things from her school lessons. She had retained a little, although not much.
After a while, Fang Xiaonuan suddenly thought of something and immediately asked, ¡°Hubby, Newton was the one who got hit by the apple, right?¡±
¡°Xiaonuan, you were still studying liberal arts when you first started studying science, right?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°Why are you asking? Does it matter?¡±
Ji Lingchen shook his head. He only wanted to know how a fool like his little wife managed to get into university.
¡°Did you cheat during the college entrance exam?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan immediately shook her head and said in an aggrieved tone, ¡°Hubby, I don¡¯t dare to cheat. The teacher told me that I¡¯d go to jail if I was caught.¡±
Ji Lingchenughed bitterly. His little wife must have been very lucky to be able to get into college. If she had not been lucky enough to understand the exam questions, she would have scolded the person who prepared the paper. He did not want his wife to continue helping him with his search for his sister because she and Liu Siyu were best friends. She was biased. He had indeed seen the bite scar that day. If Liu Siyu was really his sister, Xiaonuan would be caught in the middle.
¡°I¡¯ll take you out to y,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°Hubby, I¡¯ll say this first. I¡¯m not going to some museum or art gallery.¡±
¡°Food street?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan immediately giggled and hugged her husband¡¯s arm. She leaned her head on his shoulder and said coyly, ¡°Hubby, you¡¯re the best.¡±
Ji Lingchen looked at his kitten. It was hard not to smile at her. He held his wife¡¯s hand, and they left the office together.
Chapter 251 - 251 Snatching the Handphone
251 Snatching the Handphone
After the two of them left, Assistant Liu and Secretary Song whispered amongst themselves. ¡°Secretary Song, why does the CEO always skip work every time Madames?¡±
¡°Why are you asking me?¡± Secretary Song asked.
¡°Because you¡¯re also married,¡± Assistant Liu replied.
Before Ji Lingchen got married, he would even sleep in the office. Ever since he got married, he would forget about work every time he saw his little wife. He had be someone who only knew how to spend time with his wife.
Secretary Song said, ¡°Not all married people are the same. Thank you. The CEO is something else. The rest of us are mere mortals.¡±
Ji Lingchen, the one they thought of as inhuman, brought his wife to Snack Street. When Old Master Ji, who was at home, found out, he felt indignant. He grabbed his grandson¡¯s hand and kept on ridiculing the couple.
¡°Grandson, let¡¯s go. We¡¯ll catch them in the act together!¡±
¡°I¡¯m not going,¡± Ji Wen said while ying his game.
¡°When I find the two of them, I¡¯ll beat them up for you!¡±
Ji Wen¡¯s eyes were fixed on his phone as he said, ¡°Now, you think of me as your grandson? It¡¯s toote for that!¡±
He was ying a racing game and was engrossed in it.
Old Master Ji had been grumbling beside him, but when he saw his grandson¡¯s phone screen, he became interested. ¡°Go left, so stupid! Why didn¡¯t you go to the left? How can you be so bad at this? Come, let me show you how it¡¯s done.¡±
As he spoke, Old Master Ji reached out to grab his grandson¡¯s phone.
Ji Wen quickly held onto his phone. ¡°Don¡¯t you have a phone? go and y with your own.¡±
Old Master Ji took out his phone from his pocket. ¡°Then, download this game for me. I¡¯ll y on yours first.¡±
Ji Wen did not want to give it to him, so Old Master Ji directly snatched it. His grandfather reached for his phone, and Ji Wen fell off the sofa trying to keep it out of his hands. He cried for help. ¡°Mom, save me! Grandpa is taking my phone. Save me!¡±
Feng Qi heard themotion and came out to take a look, then turned around and went back into the room. She acted like she did not see anything.
Ji Wen was speechless.
In the end, Old Master Ji managed to grab the phone. He picked it up and started ying games. He even chose a cool motorcycle for himself.
¡°Don¡¯t mess with my level,¡± Ji Wen said.
¡°That¡¯s impossible,¡± Old Master Ji said. He was really good at riding motorcycles when he was young!
As soon as he finished speaking, the starting signal red, and Old Master Ji¡¯s motorcycle crashed into the wall on the side of the road.
Old Master Ji chuckled nervously.
Ji Wen was at a loss for words. He thought he was good?
¡°You better give me my phone back.¡± Ji Wen took the opportunity to take back his phone and continued ying on his own.
Old Master Ji¡¯s eyes were glued to the screen. ¡°Hurry up! Overtake!¡±
Seeing that his grandson had failed to overtake the car, Old Master Ji said, ¡°Look at your driving skills. They¡¯re so bad. You¡¯re nothing!¡±
Ji Wen said, ¡°Here, here, here. If you¡¯re good, you can navigate this.¡±
Old Master Ji nced at theplicated map and thought of what he had just done. He put his hands behind his back. ¡°No need, I¡¯ll guide you.¡±
¡°I think you just don¡¯t know how,¡± Ji Wen said.
¡°I think you¡¯re just going to get beaten up!¡± Old Master Ji raised his walking stick to scare his grandson.
The grandfather-grandson pair did not share even a moment of silence. While they were ying the game, the living room was filled with their bickering.
Old Master Ji liked to teach others. He woulde up with ideas when he had nothing to do, but every time, he would fail. However, he would always say that failure was the mother of sess, and then continue to give advice.
In the end, the game was over. With Old Master Ji¡¯s guidance, Ji Wen¡¯s level dropped from level 9 to Level 6. The grandfather and grandson looked at the terrible progress they had made and fell silent.
During dinner, Old Master Ji tried tofort his grandson. ¡°Xiaowen, ah...¡±
¡°Don¡¯t talk to me,¡± Ji Wen said.
Old Master Ji,¡± I¡¯m a little scared now.¡±
¡°Don¡¯t touch me,¡± Ji Wen said.
Old Master Ji said, ¡°Ah! I¡¯m going to take a walk in the afternoon.¡±
¡°Don¡¯t talk to me,¡± Ji Wen said.
Every time Old Master Ji wanted to speak, he was interrupted by Ji Wen.
Feng Qi¡¯s expression darkened. She said that her son was being too disrespectful to his grandfather.
¡°Oh, don¡¯t be angry. Xiaowen is quite filial and respects me. A child can¡¯t be punished for that. Ji Wen is our only heir.¡± Old Master Ji had now turned into a kind grandfather who protected his grandson. He hadpletely forgotten about how he had ridiculed his grandson on the sofa and snatched his phone.
That night, Fang Xiaonuan returned home after her date with her husband. She was holding arge paper bowl in her hand, which was filled with delicious food from Snack Street.
¡°Dad, are you asleep?¡± Fang Xiaonuan asked.
Old Master Ji was very good at acting. He walked down the stairs and said, ¡°Ugh, you two heartless people are back.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan smiled ingratiatingly and said, ¡°Dad, I¡¯m telling you, it¡¯s all my husband¡¯s fault. Why do you think he brought me to Snack Street like he had nothing better to do? I¡¯ve overeaten and I¡¯m definitely going to gain weight.¡±
Chapter 252 - 252 The Friendship Between Girls
252 The Friendship Between Girls
Old Master Ji snorted angrily, disdaining his second daughter-inw¡¯s words.
Fang Xiaonuan held up the bowl in her hands as if she was presenting a treasure. ¡°Tada! Dad, look at what¡¯s inside.¡±
Old Master Ji had long smelled the fragrance, but he would not bring it up.
Fang Xiaonuan changed her shoes and walked over to give Old Master Ji the snacks she had bought. ¡°Dad, your son is unfilial, but I¡¯m very filial. Although I¡¯ve eaten a lot of good food behind your back, I still miss you with every bite I take. So, I brought these back especially for you.¡±
¡°That¡¯s more like it,¡± Old Master Ji said. He brought the snacks to the dining room happily.
As he ate, heined to Fang Xiaonuan about Ji Wen, saying that Ji Wen was ignoring him.
¡°Dad, don¡¯t worry. I¡¯ll go and avenge you!¡± Fang Xiaonuan rolled up her sleeves and went upstairs to look for Ji Wen.
Old Master Ji felt extremely carefree and ate even more happily.
Ji Lingchen chimed in, ¡°Dad, don¡¯t eat too much. Don¡¯tnd yourself in the hospital again.¡±
When they were at Snack Street, he had told his wife to buy less, but she did not listen at all. She bought everything she saw and was only willing to go home when she had enough paper bowls.
¡°Unfilial son!¡±
Ji Lingchen awkwardly rubbed his nose. ¡°These are for children. You¡¯re not young anymore. Your stomach won¡¯t be able to take it if you eat too much. Prepare axative and put it by the bed tonight.¡±
¡°Don¡¯t curse me,¡± Old Master Ji said disdainfully.
At that moment, Ji Lingchen¡¯s phone rang. He looked at his father worriedly and went upstairs with his phone.
Fang Xiaonuan went to Ji Wen¡¯s room to y, and when Ji Lingchen passed by, he heardughtering from inside. He pushed open the door to his nephew¡¯s room and looked at his little wife, who was smiling happily. ¡°Come back to the room after ying for a while. Sleep early tonight.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan replied, ¡°Alright.¡±
She was just like Ji Lingchen¡¯s daughter. She would go out to y and he would remind her toe home early.
Ji Lingchen went to the study and picked up the phone. ¡°What¡¯s the result of theparison?¡±
It was Assistant Liu on the other end of the phone. He said, ¡°ording to the analysis of the skulls, the photos of Ms. Xiaoyu and Liu Siyu are 60% simr. However, Liu Siyu now looks even more simr to her younger self.
¡°Have you found the surveince footage?¡±
Assistant Liu said, ¡°I didn¡¯t manage to find anything. Liu Siyu was wearing a loose sweater that day and it covered the scar on her arm. Also, the location that you mentioned was hard to capture on the surveince camera.¡±
Ji Lingchen remained silent in the study for a long time.
¡°CEO Ji,¡± assistant Liu said. ¡°If you can¡¯t do it, let Madam help you confirm the bite marks. The two of them had a good rtionship, so it is easy for her to look at her arm.¡±
¡°I won¡¯t let Xiaonuan do it before I¡¯m 100% sure,¡± Ji Lingchen replied calmly. ¡°She and Liu Siyu are very good friends. If they find out, it might affect their friendship in the future.¡±
He did not want to risk his wife losing her good friend over something that had yet to be confirmed. Moreover, this matter was very likely to offend his good friend¡¯s family, so he did not want to rm his wife.
After all, anyone who was told that they might not be their parents¡¯ child would be angry. He would only tell his little wife when he had full confidence.
¡°I remember that Mr. And Mrs. Liu¡¯s blood types are A and AB. Liu Siyan is also type A.¡± Ji Lingchen suddenly said.
Assistant Liu did not understand what the CEO meant.
¡°Xiaoyu¡¯s blood type is O,¡± Ji Lingchen added.
Assistant Liu understood. ¡°But, CEO, we didn¡¯t have the chance to get in touch with Ms. Liu Siyu. ording to our investigation, Liu Siyan takes her to school every day. When she¡¯s in school, she¡¯s always with Madam. They even go to the toilet together.¡±
At this point, Assistant Liu could not understand the friendship between girls. It was understandable for them to go shopping together, but why did they have to go to the toilet together? Were they conjoined twins? The kind that could not live if they were separated? The strangest thing was that sometimes, Madam did not even go to the toilet. She just waited at the door. He really could not understand. Because the madam was there and Assistant Liu had seen the video of the madam¡¯spetition, he did not dare to offend the madam at all. When they were tailing them, they only dared to follow from a distance. After school, they still did not dare to get close, because there was still the police captain, Liu Siyan, to consider.
Ji Lingchen thought that there should be a record of the physical examination in the college entrance examination. ¡°When Liu Siyu was born, there was also a record. We just need topare these two records and we¡¯ll know.¡±
Assistant Liu was suddenly enlightened. He was indeed a clever CEO!
¡°Understood, CEO. I¡¯ll investigate it immediately!¡± Assistant Liu hung up the phone and went to investigate.
Chapter 253 - 253 CEO Ji Won with His Wife
253 CEO Ji Won with His Wife
Ji Lingchen put his phone down and opened his photo album. Looking at Liu Siyu¡¯s photo, he felt that five-year-old Liu Siyu lookedpletely different from the photo he had now. He had a feeling that Liu Siyu was his sister!
Ji Wen was ying games in the bedroom. Fang Xiaonuan was ying with him.
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°It¡¯s a good thing I didn¡¯t teach Dad to y Challenger. Otherwise, he¡¯d ask us to y with him all the time.¡±
Ji Wen said, ¡°I can¡¯t teach him everything. He¡¯s already so old. If he¡¯s bored, he should just y Fight the Landlord and Snake. You just had to teach him how to y PUBG. A few days ago, he used my ount to y PUBG and lost each time. Once, he even killed his teammate and kept apologizing!¡±
Fang Xiaonuan could not help butugh.
¡°Hmph, no matter how many points you deduct from me, my rank will still be higher than yours.¡±
The two of them chatted for a while before Ji Lingchen knocked on the door. ¡°Xiaonuan, stop ying now. Come back to the room, shower, and sleep.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°Got it, hubby. Just wait a little longer. This round will be over soon!¡±
The two of them continued ying the game, and Fang Xiaonuan added, ¡°I¡¯ll teach Dad how to y Anipop tomorrow.¡±
Ji Wen said, ¡°Sounds good. Hurry up and teach him how to y that. This kind of game is based on skill and it won¡¯t suit a man of his age.¡±
After winning thest round, Fang Xiaonuan left with her phone.
In the bedroom, Ji Lingchen had juste out of the bathroom after a shower. He said with a hint of jealousy, ¡°Don¡¯t always hang out with Xiaowen. You¡¯re his aunt, not his girlfriend!¡±
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°I¡¯m ying with him because I want to advance to the next rank. He¡¯s the best. I can¡¯t advance by myself.¡±
¡°Boys don¡¯t study hard; they only know how to y games,¡± Ji Lingchen said disdainfully.
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°Hubby, don¡¯t say that. Xiaoyu and I always copied his work during exams.¡±
¡°You¡¯replimenting him?¡± Ji Lingchen was thoroughly jealous.
Fang Xiaonuan smiled sweetly and hugged her husband¡¯s waist. ¡°No, I¡¯m just using him. I¡¯m using him to help me advance just like I used him to help me pass the exams. That way, I don¡¯t have to study hard and I don¡¯t have to waste effort to climb the ranks! With the time and energy saved, I can spend my time going on dates with you!¡±
Fang Xiaonuan was really good at sweet talking. Ji Lingchen understood that well. His understanding of what his wife said was that she did not study or y games because she wanted to spend time with him.
¡°What game were you ying?¡±
¡°Kings of Glory,¡± Fang Xiaonuan replied.
¡°Okay, then don¡¯t y with him anymore. I¡¯ll bring you up the ranks,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
Fang Xiaonuan was surprised that her husband knew how to y this kind of game.
¡°You¡¯re the only one I¡¯m taking, no one else,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
Fang Xiaonuan nodded like a chick pecking at rice. ¡°Alright! But, hubby, have you ever yed Challenger before?¡±
¡°Give me a day. I can definitely learn it,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
Fang Xiaonuan was stunned. Her husband had never yed it before, and he wanted to bring her up the ranks?
As it turned out, her husband had not been lying. Ji Lingchen only took one day to learn the king tier. Every night after that, the young couple would snuggle under the covers and y games. Fang Xiaonuan would lie on her husband¡¯sp and sleep her way to victory. However, her husband had to pay a ¡®price¡¯ for taking her along.
Fang Xiaonuan wanted to cry but had no tears. She often paid the ¡°price ¡± until her legs went soft. Of course, this was all in the future.
The next morning, Ji Lingchen wanted to send his young wife to school.
¡°Why?¡±
¡°Do I need a reason to send you to school?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s face was puffed up. Although she was sometimes silly, she was still intelligent. Could it be that her husband wanted to go and see Liu Siyu?
¡°Honey, do you have any other reason for wanting to? Do you want to see someone?¡±
¡°Who would that be?¡± Ji Lingchen feigned ignorance.
He knew that his wife was asking about Liu Siyu, but he did not deny it on purpose. This way, his wife would suspect that she was overthinking it.
Although Fang Xiaonuan could not be sure of her husband¡¯s motives, she refused to let him send her.
¡°It¡¯s been a while since you started school,¡± Ji Lingchen said. ¡°Yet, I haven¡¯t dropped you off before. I¡¯ll take this opportunity to meet your school head.¡±
¡°Our school¡¯s highest-ranking head is right here!¡±
Ji Lingchen kept silent. She had gotten in his way.
In the morning, he did not manage to send his wife off, but he went to pick her up from school in the afternoon. When the students in the ssroom saw the man at the door, they became restless and hurriedly told Fang Xiaonuan to look behind her. Fang Xiaonuan turned around and saw a man with a face full of smiles.
Chapter 254 - 254 If They Don’t Kiss, Their Mouths Will Itch
254 If They Don¡¯t Kiss, Their Mouths Will Itch
¡°Wow,¡± Liu Siyu teased. ¡°You¡¯re smiling so widely at your man that your eyes are slits.¡±
¡°No, they¡¯re not,¡± Fang Xiaonuan retorted. ¡°They have be lines.¡±
When the bell rang, Fang Xiaonuan left her belongings and ran straight to her husband. ¡°Hubby, I didn¡¯t let you send me this morning, but you came to pick me up in the afternoon. Did you miss me that much?¡±
Ji Lingchen had been with his little wife for a long time, and he had slowly learned how to coax people. He immediately applied what he had learned. ¡°I thought of you while I was working. I¡¯m not in the mood for meetings, so I got off work early to pick you up.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s smile grew even wider, but she still lectured her husband, ¡°You can¡¯t always be like this. You can¡¯t just leave your office like this. What if thepany goes bankrupt because all you think about is me?¡±
Ji Lingchen ruffled his wife¡¯s soft hair. ¡°You didn¡¯t even take your books?¡±
¡°Nope. Xiaowen and Xiaoyu will help me with it,¡± Fang Xiaonuan replied.
Sure enough, after a while, Liu Siyu and Ji Wen came out with a stack of books.
Ji Lingchen was about to take it, but Fang Xiaonuan was faster and took it directly. CEO Ji¡¯s hand awkwardly hung in the air, and he could only silently withdraw it. He nced at Liu Siyu¡¯s arm and asked, ¡°Do you have a scar on this arm?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s heart trembled. She kept her smile in ce and stared at her husband. ¡°Hubby, you¡¯re...¡±
¡°I¡¯m just asking,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
Hearing her husband¡¯s words, Fang Xiaonuan immediately understood what he was thinking. She could no longer smile, and her expression turned sour. Her tender little face also became serious.
Liu Siyu felt that the atmosphere was not right. She smiled awkwardly and said, ¡°No, I don¡¯t.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan pointed at her arm and said, ¡°Why don¡¯t you ask me if I have a scar?¡±
¡°I see your arm every day. I know if you have scars,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
The three of them giggled.
Ji Lingchen¡¯s words made it easy for their imaginations to run wild.
Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s face turned red. She felt that her husband had been too direct and that her friends would misunderstand. However, it was true that she was always running around the bedroom with her arms and legs exposed, so she really could not refute it.
After a while, Liu Siyan arrived. When he saw Ji Lingchen, he immediately went to his sister¡¯s side. ¡°CEO Ji, you¡¯re here to pick Xiaonuan up?¡±
¡°Yeah, aren¡¯t you here to pick up your sister? You¡¯re more diligent than your parents. You pick her up all the time. Are you that free at the police station?¡±
Liu Siyan smiled. ¡°I¡¯m used to picking her up. It¡¯s been peaceful in Jing City recently. I¡¯m not busy.¡± He did not say much else and reached for his sister¡¯s hand.
Ji Lingchen looked at his wife beside him. Her round almond-shaped eyes almost saw right through him. ¡°I¡¯m really here to pick you up from school,¡±
Fang Xiaonuan replied, ¡°Bah! Ji Lingchen, you¡¯re getting more and more dishonest, and now you¡¯re even learning how to use me!¡± After she finished speaking, she turned around and left with Ji Wen. She wanted to go home with Ji Wen.
Ji Wen was terrified. ¡°Auntie, don¡¯t follow me. I haven¡¯t lived long enough!¡±
Fang Xiaonuan pulled on Ji Wen¡¯s sleeve and pulled him forward without giving him a chance to refuse her.
Ji Lingchen followed her. He grabbed his little wife¡¯s arm and pulled her into his arms, then bent down and carried her like a princess.
Fang Xiaonuan was carried up before she could even react!
Students were all around, secretly watching the show.
The incident of Ji Lingchen carrying his wife quickly made it to the school¡¯s forum.
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°Ji Lingchen!¡±
¡°Call me hubby,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
¡°B*stard!¡± Fang Xiaonuan said.
¡°No matter how much of a b*stard I am, I am still your husband,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
He did not care about everyone watching him. He immediately carried his noisy little wife to the front passenger seat and fastened her seat belt for her. ¡°I¡¯m really here to pick you up.¡±
¡°Hmph!¡± Fang Xiaonuan angrily turned her face to the side.
Ji Lingchen leaned over and nted a kiss on her fair and tender little face. It was very light, like a dragonfly skimming the surface of the water. Then, he walked to the driver¡¯s seat, started the car, and took his wife away.
...
In another car, on the way home, Liu Siyan¡¯s brows were furrowed. ¡°Xiaoyu, Xiaonuan has beening to our house to look at your photos recently. Her husband has also gone to your school to look for you. What¡¯s going on? ¡±
¡°Ah? The photos? Xiaonuan said she wanted to see photos of me when I was young. It¡¯s not a big deal, so I showed them to her. She looked at mine, and I looked at hers. Besides, her husband isn¡¯t here for me. He¡¯s here to pick her up. They have a great rtionship, and I heard from Ji Wen that they have to kiss every day, otherwise their mouths will itch.¡±
Chapter 255 - 255 The Little Artist
255 The Little Artist
Liu Siyan said, ¡°Grandfather isn¡¯t doing very well. Grandfather and grandmother will being to stay at our house soon. Don¡¯t invite your ssmates to our house for a while. You¡¯ll disturb them. Plus, that Ji Lingchen, his identity, and status are extraordinary. He¡¯s veryplex. Even if he goes to pick Xiaonuan up from school, you have to know how to avoid suspicion and interact less with them. Even though he¡¯s Xiaonuan¡¯s husband, he¡¯s still a stranger to you.¡±
Liu Siyu said, ¡°I know. Brother, you don¡¯t have to remind me. I know.¡±
¡°Yes,¡± Liu Siyan replied. While he was driving, he subconsciously nced at his sister¡¯s arm and did not say anything.
Ji Lingchen brought his little wife to his office. He worked using hisputer while Fang Xiaonuan curled up on the sofa and yed games. He walked to his wife¡¯s side, but she ignored him. He picked up his wife¡¯s textbook and flipped it open. On one of the pages of the book, it was written, ¡°Ji Lingchen mentioned in an interview that it was the age of the inte. Big data...¡± There, he saw a hand-drawn bird next to his name. The little bird seemed to be pecking at his name. Other than the little bird, he read, ¡°¡®s wife.¡± When read with the edits, it sounded like this, ¡°Ji Lingchen¡¯s wife was interviewed...¡±
His wife? He turned his head to look at his soft and cute little wife. She was really naughty! She was tapping furiously on the screen, probably because she was about to lose the game.
Ji Lingchen did not disturb her and continued to flip through her textbook. As expected, there were more sections about him. ¡°Ji Lingchen leads the Ji Corporation to the forefront of the times, economic reform.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan drew a pile of poop next to his name and even made an annotation: ¡°Although he is human, he does not sound like a human being.¡± She could not understand the text, so she attributed the mistake to her husband¡¯s manner of speaking.
Ji Lingchen smiled, revealing his pearly teeth. There were very few things that could make him so happy. He sighed to himself. It seemed that he had to speak simply and clearly in the future. Otherwise, his kitten would me him if she did not understand.
Just as Ji Lingchen was about to continue reading, Fang Xiaonuan suddenly snatched the book away. ¡°Why are you reading my textbook?¡±
Ji Lingchen was in a good mood. ¡°I just wanted to see if my little friend was paying attention in ss.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan closed the book and ced it under her butt, refusing to let her husband read it.
¡°Why won¡¯t you let me see?¡± Ji Lingchen raised his brows.
¡°No reason,¡± Fang Xiaonuan said guiltily. She could not let her husband see the rest of the content.
Forget about the first few. If he saw that she had drawn all over his photos, making him look like a pig, would he spank her butt?
¡°Let me see the rest,¡± Ji Lingchen said.
¡°There¡¯s nothing else, you don¡¯t have to look anymore,¡± Fang Xiaonuan replied.
When he saw his wife¡¯s flustered expression, Ji Lingchen knew that the content was not as simple as it seemed. There might be a ¡°surprise¡± waiting for him.
¡°Let me see the book again,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
Fang Xiaonuan picked up another book and stuffed it into her husband¡¯s hands. ¡°Look at this!¡±
Ji Lingchen put that book aside and went up to his little wife without a word. He hugged her waist and ced her on hisp with one hand. Her little butt was facing up, so it was easy to hit her!
Fang Xiaonuan was sprawled on the man¡¯s legs, and she tried to prop herself up so she could get off. ¡°Hubby, you b*stard!¡±
Ji Lingchen sessfully retrieved the textbook. It was warm because his wife had sat on it. He started flipping through it again.
Fang Xiaonuan wanted to get up again, but her husband held her down by the neck and she could not move at all. ¡°Hubby, you¡¯re not allowed to look. Let me go!¡±
She kept swinging her arms, but her movements were restricted, so she could not hit him at all.
On page 56, Ji Lingchen¡¯s portrait turned into that of a pig¡¯s head.
On page 73, he had an unttering nose and a pockmarked face.
On page 125, he did not even have the basic features of a human. His kitten drew mouse teeth on him and cat whiskers. His hair was red and he had a pair of pig¡¯s ears on his head. The name at the bottom was also crossed out and changed to ¡°Zhu Bajie.¡±
Smack!
He spanked Fang Xiaonuan.
She was so embarrassed that her face turned tomato red. ¡°Hubby!¡±
¡°If you like drawing so much, I¡¯ll let you take art sses.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan tried to turn around, and this time, Ji Lingchen did not restrict her movements. She rolled over on her husband¡¯sp, then used her husband¡¯s shoulder to pull herself up. She said coquettishly, ¡°Hubby, I don¡¯t want to!¡±
Ji Lingchen nced at his little wife. He picked up his phone and was about to order Secretary Song to get his wife a good drawing board. This way, his little kitten could be a little artist.
Chapter 256 - 256 Looking for a Boyfriend
256 Looking for a Boyfriend
¡°Don¡¯t, hubby. I love you too much. That¡¯s why I drew all that.¡± Fang Xiaonuan wanted to snatch her husband¡¯s phone away.
Ji Lingchen raised his arm high, and Fang Xiaonuan dodged.
She immediately changed her tactic and held her husband¡¯s face, looked at him affectionately, and took the initiative to kiss him. ¡°Hubby, can I not go to art ss? I know I¡¯m wrong. I won¡¯t draw again.¡±
Ji Lingchen was addicted to teaching his little wife a lesson. ¡°You can stop going when you learn how to draw a portrait of me.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan shook her head and leaned forward to kiss her husband a few more times. ¡°Hubby, I was wrong.¡±
¡°Kissing me is useless,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
¡°Should I offer myself?¡±
Ji Lingchen looked at his little wife in his arms. She usually did not keep her word. Ji Lingchen knew her too well, so he did not believe her.
¡°Why don¡¯t you give yourself up first, then?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan jumped up and tried to snatch her husband¡¯s phone away again, but someone knocked on the office door. ¡°CEO, may Ie in?¡± It was Assistant Liu.
¡°Yes, definitely yes. Come in quickly,¡± Fang Xiaonuan said immediately.
She had to get her husband busy with work as soon as possible. Once he got busy, he would forget about her drawing all over his photos.
Assistant Liu pushed the door open and entered. He realized that there was no one at the desk. Then, he turned and saw the couple on the sofa.
Fang Xiaonuan sat in her husband¡¯s arms and her hands were on his chest. She said coyly, ¡°Hubby, I know I was wrong. Being angry is bad for your health. Work is more important. You can go back to your work. I¡¯ll leave.¡±
¡°Fix the pictures in the book. Make them look normal again,¡± Ji Lingchen ordered.
¡°I¡¯ll go do it right now!¡±
Fang Xiaonuan picked up her books and quickly ran out.
¡°CEO, did Ie at a bad time?¡± Assistant Liu looked at him awkwardly.
¡°It¡¯s nothing. I¡¯m just scaring her. Tell me, what¡¯s the matter?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan ran out of the office and went straight to the pantry. She borrowed an eraser from an employee and flipped open a book to erase the ¡°masterpieces¡± from before.
Fang Xiaonuan imitated her husband and said, ¡°If you wanted a beating, you could have just asked. You didn¡¯t need to draw on your book!¡±
While she was erasing the stuff, she continued mocking him and also threatened him by saying that she would beat him up for making her do this.
Secretary Song was passing by and saw Fang Xiaonuan sitting by the side. She gave her a bottle of water. ¡°Madam, I don¡¯t think violence is the answer.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan retorted, ¡°If violence isn¡¯t the answer, you¡¯re just not using enough of it.¡±
Secretary Song looked at the angry young madam and lowered her head. She looked at the drawing in the book and asked, ¡°Madam, how did CEO Ji punish you?¡±
¡°He asked me to erase it,¡± Fang Xiaonuan said.
¡°What if it can¡¯t be erased?¡± Secretary Song asked.
¡°If I can¡¯t erase it, I¡¯ll just tear it off!¡± She was not going to attend any bullsh*t art sses!
Secretary Song sat with Fang Xiaonuan as she erased the drawings in the book. They even started chatting.
¡°If Ji Lingchen dares to send me to an art ss, I¡¯ll find a boyfriend there. Let¡¯s see who¡¯ll be angry then!¡± Fang Xiaonuan said indignantly.
¡°Madam,¡± Secretary Song said. ¡°I¡¯d like to give you a piece of advice. Don¡¯t mess with your husband. Treasure your life.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan was disdainful. ¡°You guys might be afraid of him, but I¡¯m not. I¡¯m not an employee. What can he do to me?¡±
Ji Lingchen crossed his arms and stood quietly behind the two of them. He looked at his little wife who wanted to cheat on him and heard her rebellious words.
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°It can¡¯t be erased at all. Is Ji Lingchen¡¯s head filled with water? How can ink from a pen be erased!¡±
¡°Forget it. I¡¯ll go buy a new one to fool around with.¡±
Secretary Song tried too, but the ink could not be removed even when she dipped the page in some water. She said lightly, ¡°Madam, the president really hates being made a fool of.¡±
¡°Secretary Song, do you know who I am?¡± Fang Xiaonuan asked. Seeing Secretary Song¡¯s confused face, she continued, ¡°I exist to challenge your CEO¡¯s limits.¡± Even if she really provoked him, she could just go home and act coquettishly. If it still didn¡¯t work, then she would offer herself to him!
Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s anger grew, and she decided to give up.
Secretary Song was also preparing to go back to work. When she turned around, she was shocked. When did the CEO arrive?
Ji Lingchen gestured for Secretary Song to keep quiet, then waved her away.
Secretary Song looked at his wife, who was in trouble, and sneaked away without any sense of loyalty. After Secretary Song left, someone took her seat.
Fang Xiaonuan asked, ¡°Secretary Song, do you know how to y games? Ah! Why are you here!¡±
Fang Xiaonuan let out a shrill scream, giving the employees who were focused on their work a shock.
¡°CEO, what¡¯s wrong with Madam?¡± One of the employees recognized Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s voice and immediately stood up to ask in concern.
¡°The CEO must have scared her,¡± Secretary Song said as she looked in the direction of the pantry.
Chapter 257 - 257 Ji Wen is Getting Beaten Up
257 Ji Wen is Getting Beaten Up
Fang Xiaonuan had been so overbearing earlier. She spoke as if she was the most powerful person in the world. Now, as soon as she saw her husband, all her imposing manner disappeared. She was now as obedient as a student. ¡°Hubby, did you hear anything just now?¡±
¡°I just heard someone say that my hands and feet look the same. I also heard that someone is nning to find a boyfriend to piss me off.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan was at a loss for words.
Why did she feel a chill down her spine when her husband smiled?
¡°Hubby, you¡¯re not angry, right?¡±
¡°Of course, I¡¯m not angry, not at all,¡± Ji Lingchen replied with a smile. He was just a little clumsy and he wanted to teach someone a lesson!
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°It¡¯s true! Swear! That you won¡¯t get angry and that you won¡¯t hit me!¡±
¡°I swear, I¡¯m not angry at all. If I¡¯m lying...¡± Ji Lingchen paused for a moment, then looked at his little wife and continued, ¡°I¡¯m not angry at all. I can punish my wife by spanking her.¡±
With that, he walked over and picked up his wife, bringing her back to the office.
Fang Xiaonuan did not want to go back, but if she resisted, her husband would lecture her in front of everyone, so it was better to settle this behind closed doors. There, she could still act coquettishly and beg for mercy.
At this moment, she no longer felt that she was powerful.
...
In the next few days, Fang Xiaonuan turned into a beautiful sight. She was being picked up by a car.
When Ji Lingchen had nothing to do, he would flip through her textbook. When he found no drawings in it, he got a little ufortable.
Liu Siyu had also be a little strange. She came to school on time every day.
After school, it was either Liu Siyan, Mrs. Liu, or the Liu family¡¯s chauffeur who came to pick her up.
¡°Xiaonuan, why has your husband been treating you so well over the past few days?¡± Liu Siyu asked curiously.
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°There¡¯s a picture of him in the textbook, right? I drew on it and gave him a pig¡¯s head. If he sees anything like that, he will punish me by picking me up every day. He¡¯ll let everyone know that he¡¯s my husband.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan also asked, ¡°Xiaoyu, why are you so busytely?¡±
Liu Siyu said, ¡°My brother and my mom heard that a serial killer in Jing City is on the run. They¡¯re looking for pretty girls to kill. My brother said that I¡¯m pretty and would be the murderer¡¯s target, so my family has been picking me up every day.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan nodded.
Ji Wen was reviewing his notes beside them, preparing for the uing exam.
It was cold now, and the windows were closed. The room was a little stuffy, and many people would be napping on the table after lunch.
¡°Xiaonuan, what¡¯s Xiaowen doing?¡± Liu Siyu suddenly realized that Ji Wen was gone.
Fang Xiaonuan suddenly realized it too. ¡°That¡¯s right. Why is my nephew missing? It¡¯s so cold outside, and his coat is still on the chair.¡±
The ssroom was very quiet. Fang Xiaonuan and Liu Siyu stood up and went outside to call Ji Wen. No one picked up the first time. On the second call, Ji Wen picked up the phone and hurriedly shouted, ¡°Back door, alley, save us!¡±
After that, the sound of a phone falling to the ground came from the other end of the line, followed by a girl¡¯s cry, ¡°Stop fighting!¡±
Fang Xiaonuan and Liu Siyu looked at each other, then immediately turned around and ran toward the back door. When they reached the ce, they saw a girl crying and shouting for them not to hit her.
Ji Wen was pushed to the ground, and seven men were surrounding him. They were beating him up. There was also a man sitting nearby, and his face was injured. He pointed at Ji Wen and yelled, ¡°Beat this brat to death. He actually dared to meddle in my business. Beat him to death!¡±
When Fang Xiaonuan saw that Ji Wen was getting beaten up, anger instantly surged through her. She red at them angrily. ¡°How dare you hit my nephew like this? What do you take me for!¡±
Liu Siyu¡¯s heart ached when she saw Ji Wen getting beaten up, and she became even angrier. ¡°Xiaonuan, go and take care of them. Leave Xiaowen to me!¡±
Fang Xiaonuan clenched her fists and dashed into the crowd.
To Fang Xiaonuan and Liu Siyu, although Ji Wen looked like ackey whom they bullied a lot, they thought of him as their younger brother. They protected him. Only they could bully Ji Wen. No one else could!
This time, these hooligans actually dared to beat up Xiaowen in front of them!
In the past, someone had seen Fang Xiaonuan bullying Ji Wen and felt that Ji Wen was a pushover. So, she had wanted him to stay behind to help her clean up.
Before Ji Wen could reject her, Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s temper red up and she started fighting with the girl in front of everyone. She only stopped after the girl was unable to fight back. It was a one-sided victory.
Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s punchesnded on flesh, and this matter even rmed the school¡¯s leaders. Later, she was criticized and educated, but since then, no one dared to bully Ji Wen.
After that, when she was older, some people liked Liu Siyu, but Liu Siyu was ¡°good ¡± to Ji Wen. This made other people think that she liked Ji Wen. These people spread the word that they would properly deal with Ji Wen and even threatened to disfigure him.
Chapter 258 - 258 Injured
258 Injured
Liu Siyu was so angry that she called her brother over. He brought a group of people to the location and gave them a good beating.
At that time, only these two could bully Ji Wen, and no one else could even think about it.
...
Fang Xiaonuan rushed into the crowd and started to attack.
Liu Siyu did not know anything about fighting. She bent down and avoided the action to keep from getting hurt. She quickly walked to Ji Wen¡¯s side and squatted down to check the injuries on his face.
Ji Wen¡¯s white sweater was full of boot prints. Liu Siyu held Ji Wen¡¯s head in her hands, her heart aching. Her eyes were slightly red when she saw the wound on his head. ¡°Xiaowen, can you still get up?¡±
Ji Wen got up with difficulty and she helped him away from the chaotic crowd.
There was a row of sticks by the wall, and people had used them to beat him.
Ji Wen picked up a stick and shouted at Fang Xiaonuan, ¡°Aunt, catch!¡± He threw the stick at Fang Xiaonuan.
The ten years they had spent together were not in vain. Fang Xiaonuan turned around tacitly and reached out to catch the stick. This time, she did not need to use her fists. The stick moved with her like they were one unit. Her movements were fluid.
Those people had only managed to knock Ji Wen to the ground because they had the advantage of numbers. They had never trained before, so they were no match for Fang Xiaonuan at all.
One hit from Fang Xiaonuan knocked one of them unconscious, causing him to fall limply to the ground. Then, she turned around and swung her arm at the back of another person¡¯s head.
...
Liu Siyu helped Ji Wen to somewhere far from the crowd. The girl who had been crying and shouting just now also came over. She wanted to help Ji Wen and check his injuries.
¡°Have you called the police?¡± Liu Siyu asked.
Ji Wen raised his head and looked at the girl, waiting for her answer.
The crying girl shook her head. ¡°I forgot, I forgot.¡±
¡°I told you to call the police,¡± Ji Wen said angrily.
¡°I-I saw them beating you up, so I forgot about that.¡±
Liu Siyu immediately grabbed her phone and called her brother. ¡°Brother, I¡¯m in trouble.¡±
¡°Address?¡± Liu Siyan asked, pinching the space between his eyebrows. His nerves were twitching.
Liu Siyu looked at the narrow alley and the people on the ground. ¡°You don¡¯t have toe over. Just go to the hospital and meet me there.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan looked at the eight people who could no longer get up, and her breathing quickened. She was exhausted from beating them up.
If Ji Wen had not thrown the stick at her, she would not have been able to deal with these people so easily.
¡°Xiaoyu, call for an ambnce,¡± Fang Xiaonuan said.
Liu Siyu had already called.
At Ji Corporation, Assistant Liu ran into the office in a panic. He took a deep breath and said, ¡°CEO Ji, Xiaowen was beaten up. Madam got into a fight, and Liu Siyu was there too.¡±
¡°What?¡±
Assistant Liu immediately exined in detail, ¡°Xiaowen got beaten up by a few gangsters. After Madam found out, she went to save Xiaowen. She didn¡¯t control her strength well and sent everyone to the hospital. When the ambnce arrived, Liu Siyu gave each of them a kick.¡±
In order to investigate Liu Siyu¡¯s identity, he had sent someone to follow her. He got the information from these people.
It was a coincidence that Ji Lingchen¡¯s men saw this and wanted to go forward to protect his wife, but they realized that they would only add to her troubles. Their ¡°weak¡± young madam had knocked down eight adult men. Then, she sat on the ground to rest.
Liu Siyu was furious when she saw that those people had no power to fight back. She stepped forward and kicked everyone to avenge Ji Wen. When the ambnce arrived, the people on the ground were pulled away.
Fang Xiaonuan and Liu Siyu also brought Ji Wen to the hospital. They had to examine his body so that any internal injuries he suffered could be treated in time.
Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s driving skills came in handy as she drove to the hospital with her nephew. The girl from before also wanted to follow them.
Liu Siyu had always been sharp-tongued, and she roared at the girl, ¡°Don¡¯t let me find out that my Xiaowen was beaten up because of you. If you were the one who provoked those gangsters, I won¡¯t let you off!¡±
The girl was so frightened by Liu Siyu that she stayed still and did not dare to speak.
When they arrived at the hospital, Fang Xiaonuan parked the car, and Liu Siyu immediately went in to register. The three of them entered the doctor¡¯s office together.
Ji Lingchen rushed to the hospital and saw two people helping Ji Wen to get an X-ray. He also saw the wound on Ji Wen¡¯s face.
¡°Uncle, there were so many of them. I couldn¡¯t beat them. Aunt defended me.¡± Ji Wen hurriedly took the initiative to take responsibility.
Ji Lingchen stepped forward to check on Ji Wen¡¯s injuries. He frowned and looked at his wife. ¡°Are you alright?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan bit her lip and shook her head obediently.
At this moment, Liu Siyan had also arrived at the hospital.
¡°Brother, I¡¯m here,¡± Liu Siyu said.
Liu Siyu saw Liu Siyan and immediately ran to his side.
Liu Siyan anxiously checked to see if she was injured.
Liu Siyu said, ¡°Brother, I¡¯m fine. Xiaonuan was the one who got into a fight. Xiaowen was injured.¡±
Chapter 259 - 259 The Reward for Fighting
259 The Reward for Fighting
Liu Siyan nodded and looked at the man who had appeared. ¡°CEO Ji, take Xiaonuan and Xiaowen for a physical examination. I¡¯ll take Xiaoyu for a checkup.¡±
After saying that, he did not give his sister a chance to refuse and walked away with her hand in his.
At that moment, Ji Lingchen was not in the mood to care about Liu Siyu. He held his wife and nephew¡¯s hands and brought them for a checkup.
It was already afternoon by the time they were done. Fang Xiaonuan, who was not injured, also went for a full-body checkup.
The gangsters who had been beaten up had also regained consciousness. Liu Siyan found out the reason behind their appearance. These gangsters were loan sharks. The girl had borrowed 60000 Yuan from them. The three-month interest and principal added up to 120000 Yuan. They had asked for the money a few times, but the girl had not returned it. They could only go to the school to search for her.
She just happened to run into Ji Wen when he was exiting the store. The girl, who knew she was in danger, immediately went up and hugged Ji Wen¡¯s arm. She cried and begged Ji Wen to save her, and even imed that these people were here to kidnap her.
Ji Wen did not know the reason for their presence, so he walked over. When these people saw him, they asked, ¡°Are you her boyfriend?¡±
¡°Who are you?¡±
The girl firmly clutched Ji Wen¡¯s arm, afraid that Ji Wen would leave her.
Ji Wen wanted to leave, but those people blocked his way. ¡°Little brat, we need to have a good talk. Take them away.¡±
The leader ordered his men to take the two to an alley where they would not be seen.
The leader said, ¡°Return the money now. 120000. If you don¡¯t have the money, I¡¯ll post your girlfriend¡¯s naked photo online.¡±
Ji Wen frowned and looked at the girl beside him. He did not know her at all.
¡°Usury?¡±
The leader replied, ¡°What usury? That¡¯s not nice. We¡¯re creditors.¡±
¡°I only borrowed 60000 Yuan to treat my grandfather¡¯s illness. Where would I get 120000 Yuan?¡± The girl sobbed.
¡°Call the police and let them handle it,¡± Ji Wen turned to the girl.
As soon as he finished speaking, a few of the gangsters stepped forward and pulled him into the small alley. They directly punched him and said, ¡°You still dare to call the police? It¡¯s only right to pay back your debt, but you want to call the police when you¡¯re in debt?¡±
Ji Wen did not back down and started fighting with the person who attacked him.
In a one-on-one fight, Ji Wen could still hold his own, but two fists were no match for four hands. With eight people attacking him at the same time, he could not hold them back. He could not even call for help.
The first time Fang Xiaonuan called, he could not pick up. On the second call, he reluctantly picked up and shouted, ¡°Back door, alley. Save us.¡± This was all.
Just as he finished speaking, his phone was kicked to the ground.
In the Public Security Bureau, Ji Lingchen came to understand the whole situation. He looked at his nephew, who seemed to be fine, and said, ¡°Even a hero who saves a beauty has to consider his own abilities. If you¡¯re not even half as good as your aunt, how can you protect someone else?¡±
Ji Wen hung his head, not daring to talk back.
Fang Xiaonuan hooked her arm around her husband¡¯s. ¡°Hubby, don¡¯t lecture Xiaowen anymore. He didn¡¯t do anything wrong.¡±
After understanding the situation, Ji Lingchen brought his wife and nephew home.
On the way, he stopped the car on the side of the road and went into the pharmacy to buy medicine for Ji Wen.
Fang Xiaonuan and Ji Wen sat in the backseat. She treated Ji Wen¡¯s wound with the medicine. As she examined the wound on his head, she became even angrier and wanted to teach those people a lesson again. Ji Lingchen acquiesced. They had to fight!
When they got home, Ji Wen got fussed over. He was treated like the treasure of the Ji family just like he wanted. The whole family was concerned about his well-being.
Feng Qi usually ignored her son, and now that her son was injured, her heart ached. ¡°Son, does it hurt? I¡¯ll put some medicine on the wound for you.¡±
¡°Mom, it¡¯s okay. It¡¯s fine,¡± Ji Wen said.
Feng Qi said, ¡°It¡¯s already swollen, and you¡¯re fine? Lingchen, Xiaonuan, what about the rest of Xiaowen¡¯s body?¡±
¡°I got him a full body check-up. We only headed home after making sure there were no major injuries,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
Feng Qi¡¯s heart ached, but she alsoined. ¡°You¡¯re too nice. Why were you so nosy?¡±
Mayor Ji saw that his son was injured and only said, ¡°Dad, take a look.¡± His heartache was audible.
Old Master Ji was furious. He was so angry that he wanted to chop them all up and feed them to the dogs.
¡°Dad, those people are all in the hospital. We¡¯ll go together when they¡¯re out,¡± Fang Xiaonuan said.
¡°They¡¯re hospitalized? Who beat them up?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan pointed at herself arrogantly.
Old Master Ji said, ¡°Well done! I¡¯m going to reward you. What do you want?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan was dumbfounded. She was getting a reward for fighting? Was this how the Ji family educated their children?
After Ji Wen got injured, he became the ¡°boss¡± at school. Fang Xiaonuan and Liu Siyu took very good care of him.
It was cold outside, and they did not let Ji Wen go to buy lunch at noon. They were afraid that Ji Wen¡¯s wounds would get worse in the cold, so they got the food instead. They served him too.
This made Ji Wen feel that staying injured for the rest of his life might be a good idea. He even thought, ¡®Why don¡¯t I get someone to beat me up when I¡¯m almost recovered?¡¯ Being served like this felt great!
When he was thirsty, someone would pour him some warm water. When he was hungry, someone would buy him food.
He was not a girl. Otherwise, these two would even follow him to the toilet.
Chapter 260 - 260 The Girl Who Borrowed From the Loan Shark is Here
260 The Girl Who Borrowed From the Loan Shark is Here
¡°Ji Wen, someone¡¯s looking for you. She¡¯s waiting for you at the door.¡± Someone shouted from the door of the ssroom.
Ji Wen turned to look at the door. It was the girl who had borrowed money from the loan shark.
¡°Come in,¡± Ji Wen said.
When Fang Xiaonuan and Liu Siyu, who had returned from their meal, saw the girl, Fang Xiaonuan immediately walked over and said, ¡°Why are you here? If there¡¯s anything you need, tell me, and don¡¯t disturb my nephew!¡±
Ji Wen was sitting down. When he heard the noise outside, he immediately got up to see what was going on.
Fang Xiaonuan and Liu Siyu were holding their lunches and drinks as they coldly spoke to the girl from the day before.
Ji Wen hurriedly walked over and took a portion of the lunch. ¡°What are you two so excited about?¡±
Liu Siyu pointed at the ssroom door. ¡°Xiaowen, go back in.¡±
Ji Wen was stunned.
Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s eyes widened as well and she roared, ¡°Go!¡±
Ji Wen obediently took his lunch and went back into the ssroom.
He left behind a girl who was sobbing at the door. She was holding a bottle of ointment in her hand.
The girl said aggrievedly, ¡°Ji Wen was beaten up because of me. I¡¯m worried about him.¡±
Liu Siyu could not stand the strange girl crying beside her and said impatiently, ¡°I warned you. I said that if my Xiaowen got beaten up because of you, I won¡¯t let you off. You¡¯ve clearly made an effort to search high and low for him, and you even had the guts toe here!¡±
¡°Why did you use Xiaowen?¡± Fang Xiaonuan asked calmly.
¡°I-I didn¡¯t,¡± the girl cried.
¡°Alright, then tell me, what illness is your grandfather suffering from?¡±
¡°It-it¡¯s cancer,¡±
Fang Xiaonuan asked, ¡°What kind of cancer? What is your grandfather¡¯s name? Where was he hospitalized? How much was the surgery? If you¡¯re really in trouble, I can help you immediately, but if you use Xiaowen again, I won¡¯t let you off! As a student of this school, you should know what kind of person I am, right?¡±
The girl was speechless.
Liu Siyu looked at the girl coldly. ¡°Say something! Are you mute? Hurry up and answer us!¡±
¡°M-my grandfather has already been discharged from the hospital,¡± the girl said with a trembling voice.
¡°Don¡¯t worry, I can check his hospitalization records,¡± Liu Siyu said.
The girl immediately fell silent and did not say a word. Her eyes drifted away, and she did not dare to look at them.
¡°Hmph, you¡¯ve spent all your money on luxury items, right?¡± Fang Xiaonuan snorted coldly.
¡°You¡¯re only interested in Xiaowen because you know that he is the son of a government official and that his family is rich, right?¡± Liu Siyu chimed in.
The girl pursed her lips. She looked pitiful, like she had been victimized. ¡°No, that¡¯s not true!¡±
Fang Xiaonuan replied, ¡°Since it¡¯s not true, do you dare to prove your innocence? If what you said is true, I¡¯ll help you pay off the loan. However, if you lie and I find out that you approached my nephew with ulterior motives and even used him, I¡¯ll expel you. Do you believe me?¡±
The new status her husband gave her made it convenient for her to expel someone immediately in a situation like this!
Last night, her husband had practically brainwashed her. ¡°The school is yours. You can do whatever you want. You can expel anyone who provokes you. I¡¯ve already bought the school. If you¡¯re still ufortable with that, then I bought the school for nothing.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan was still a little embarrassed, feeling that her husband had taught her all the wrong things.
Ji Lingchen continued, ¡°I spent so much money to make youfortable. If you¡¯re notfortable, then it¡¯s meaningless.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan felt that it made sense.
Ji Lingchen said, ¡°Before we got married, you were given freedom. Now, I¡¯ll give you the confidence to work hard. As long as you¡¯re happy, I¡¯ll take care of the rest.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan was moved. ¡°You said it yourself. Even if I do something bad, you have to protect me. Even if I¡¯m unreasonable, you have to protect me.¡±
Ji Lingchen nodded.
...
The girl clutched the ointment she was going to give Ji Wen. Hearing Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s words reminded her of her status. She did not dare to offend her. She took a step back, trying to turn around and escape.
Liu Siyu crossed her arms and stepped forward, blocking the girl¡¯s way. ¡°You want to leave? What do you take me for? Since you¡¯vee to me yourself, don¡¯t even think about leaving. Why did you use Xiaowen?¡±
¡°No, I really didn¡¯t,¡± the girl replied.
¡°I don¡¯t have the patience to listen to your nonsense,¡± Fang Xiaonuan said coldly.
The girl turned around and wanted to escape in another direction, but she was stopped by Fang Xiaonuan.
Ji Wen had never suffered such a big loss. He was beaten up for nothing. This matter had to be investigated clearly.
The two of them decided to block the girl¡¯s path. They would not let her go.
Ji Wen stood at the door and wanted to say, ¡°Let her go¡±, but the moment he stepped out of the door, Fang Xiaonuan immediately red at him. He could only obediently retreat.
Outside the ssroom, Fang Xiaonuan and Liu Siyu had stood in the girl¡¯s way for a full half an hour. By the time they returned to the ssroom, the food had gone cold.
Chapter 261 - 261 The Weird Logic of a Weird Girl
261 The Weird Logic of a Weird Girl
Ji Wen looked at the two angry girls and hurriedly asked, ¡°What¡¯s going on?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan felt that he was a hopeless case, so she grabbed his ear and scolded him. ¡°You idiot! You don¡¯t even know that you¡¯re being used.¡±
Liu Siyu exined, ¡°She didn¡¯t borrow from the usury to treat her grandfather¡¯s illness. She wanted to buy luxury goods. She can¡¯t pay it back now. She used you on purpose yesterday. There were so many people out there, but she chose you. She just wanted you to help her pay back the money and take this opportunity to be your girlfriend.¡±
Ji Wen thought, ¡®Does she think I¡¯m clueless about girls?¡¯
Liu Siyu continued to exin. ¡°She thought that you were from a rich family, that it would be easy for you to steal tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands for her. But she didn¡¯t expect that you would rather get beaten up than help her pay off her loans.¡±
Ji Wen was speechless. ¡®Is there something wrong with this girl¡¯s brain or is there something wrong with his brain?¡¯
Fang Xiaonuan almost wanted to punch that girl.
Liu Siyu said, ¡°Not only is she a gold digger, but she¡¯s also a weirdo and a lunatic!¡±
Ji Wen did not think there was anything wrong with his brain. ¡°I do have money, but why would I help her pay back her loans? If she failed to pay back the money she borrowed, her n was to go to rich people for help? She wanted to get those rich people to settle her debt?¡±
Liu Siyu said, ¡°Exactly! If you help pay it back, she¡¯ll sleep with you, and maybe even your girlfriend. You¡¯re rich and a hunk at this school. If I was your girlfriend, I¡¯d...¡±
Ji Wen immediately got nauseous. ¡°Siyu, I¡¯m begging you, please don¡¯t continue.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s heart ached as she looked at her nephew. Liu Siyu also felt sorry for him. He had met such a weirdo and suffered a beating for nothing.
¡°I swear, next time, I won¡¯t f*cking care,¡± Ji Wen said. He was already traumatized.
Fang Xiaonuan passed him a ss of water to help him settle his stomach. ¡°Next time, when you¡¯re looking for a wife, let me help you.¡±
¡°I¡¯ll look into her for you too,¡± Liu Siyu agreed.
Ji Wen suddenly felt that women were terrifying. As expected, only women understood other women.
Yesterday, the two of them had only spoken a few words to the girl. He had not picked up on anything, but these two could see who the girl really was.
He felt a chill run down his spine while he was eating. ¡°Then what did you do to that girl?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan was eating. She paused and said, ¡°We let her go.¡±
Liu Siyu said, ¡°Exile.¡±
After school, Ji Lingchen came to pick up his wife and nephew again.
This time, the way he looked at Liu Siyu was different. There was some excitement in his eyes that was difficult to suppress.
He raised his hand and was about to touch Liu Siyu¡¯s head when Liu Siyan grabbed his wrist. ¡°CEO Ji, your wife is here. You should keep your distance from my sister.¡±
¡°Captain Liu, it¡¯s not certain whose sister she is!¡± Ji Lingchen clenched his fist.
Liu Siyan grabbed Ji Lingchen¡¯s wrist with force, his eyes cold. ¡°CEO Ji, you can¡¯t just say whatever you want.¡± He was a little flustered.
¡°Captain Liu, you would know if I was spouting nonsense.¡± The corner of Ji Lingchen¡¯s lips curled up.
He was so focused on quarreling with Liu Siyan that he ignored his frowning wife.
As Fang Xiaonuan listened to her husband¡¯s words, she felt that something was amiss.
She could only stand between the two of them and separate them. ¡°Brother Liu, we¡¯ll be leaving first. See you some other time.¡± After speaking, she pulled her husband¡¯s arm and dragged him back to the car.
This was the first time in Ji Lingchen¡¯s life that his wife had dragged him into the car without a care for his image.
Liu Siyu was confused. She hid behind her brother andined quietly, saying that her best friend¡¯s husband was sick.
Liu Siyan took Liu Siyu¡¯s hand and they turned around to return to the car. He did not bring his sister home. Instead, they went straight to the hospital¡¯s cosmetic surgery department.
In the other car, Fang Xiaonuan was a little angry. Even though she did not say anything, Ji Wen, who was in the back seat, could clearly sense it. He was baffled. He had not offended her, right?
Ji Wen looked at his uncle, who was driving. Did he do something to her again?
Ji Wen once again looked at the young woman in the front passenger seat, who was fuming. Was it her time of the month?
Ji Lingchen also noticed that his wife was fuming beside him. If he spoke now, she would explode. He could only remain silent.
When they reached home, Fang Xiaonuan alighted from the car and said to her husband, ¡°I¡¯ll be waiting in your study!¡±
Ji Lingchen chuckled.
Ji Wen frowned and looked at the angry woman. He asked in a low voice, ¡°Uncle, who is she talking to?¡±
¡°Do you have a study?¡± Ji Lingchen asked.
Ji Wen said, ¡°F*ck! Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s status is so high now? She even dares to talk to you like that. She even ordered you to go see her in the study?¡±
Chapter 262 - 262 One Hit
262 One Hit
Ji Lingchen took a few deep breaths and threw the car keys to his nephew. ¡°Lock the door.¡±
For the first time, the high and mighty CEO Ji experienced what it was like to go to the study room and admit his mistakes. He was extremely nervous and even a little flustered. So, this was how people felt before going into his office. This was really ufortable. It seemed that he had to be more approachable to his subordinates in the future.
He walked to the door of the study and knocked.
¡°Enter,¡± his little wife said.
Ji Lingchen pushed the door open and entered. When he saw his little wife leaning against the desk, he closed the door and stepped inside. As soon as he came in, he started exining. ¡°Xiaonuan, I was going to tell you when we get home.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°So, you couldn¡¯t hold it in at school and directly told Liu Siyan that Xiaoyu could be your sister?¡±
She was furious. Her husband had already told her that he believed that Liu Siyu was not his sister. Now, he suddenly told Liu Siyan that Liu Siyu might be his sister after all. How could she not be angry? They were husband and wife, yet he was still hiding things from her!
¡°The results came out,¡± Ji Lingchen said. ¡°Liu Siyu was born with blood type A, but now it¡¯s O-type on her physical examination sheet. I know you¡¯re angry and that you think I¡¯m a bad person who wants to destroy your friend¡¯s happy family. If we find out that Liu Siyu is Ji Xiaoyu, you won¡¯t know how it¡¯ll affect your rtionship with her. Xiaonuan, give me some time and I¡¯ll exin.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan clenched her fists.
Ji Lingchen was afraid that his wife would lose her temper. He looked at her fists. ¡°Let me exin. Rx your fists first.¡±
¡°The Liu family did have a daughter called Liu Siyu, but she passed away for some reason. Their parents would disappear for an entire day during every Ghost Festival.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°You¡¯re cursing her by saying she¡¯s dead! Ji Lingchen, you¡¯re asking for a beating!¡±
Whenever she could not win and was angry, she just wanted to fight.
Ji Lingchen was clearly the boss behind Silver Field, yet he was practically beaten to a pulp by his wife here in the study.
In the end, he could only grab his wife¡¯s hand and look into her eyes. ¡°Xiaonuan, Xiaoyu has bite scars on her left arm. Have you seen them? ¡±
Unable to break free, Fang Xiaonuan raised her foot and stomped on her husband¡¯s foot. She roared in anger, ¡°No, I¡¯ve never seen them before!¡±
Ji Lingchen endured the pain and hugged his furious little wife tightly.
Fang Xiaonuan used all her strength, but she could not break free.
In her rage, Fang Xiaonuan raised her leg and kicked the spot between the man¡¯s legs.
She was a tough girl who had not even considered what this could mean for the rest of her life. Fang Xiaonuan was that girl.
She suddenly raised her leg again and hit the target!
Ji Lingchen immediately let go of his wife. He bent down and looked up at his little wife who had struggled free. ¡°Fang Xiaonuan! Do you have any idea what you¡¯re doing?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan replied, ¡°Can¡¯t you see that I¡¯m angry? How dare you hug me? Do you really think you¡¯re just a bossy CEO? You think you can hug and kiss me when I¡¯m angry? I¡¯m telling you one more time, when I¡¯m angry, don¡¯t f*cking touch me!¡±
Ji Lingchen¡¯s forehead was covered in sweat from the pain. He took a deep breath and looked at his furious wife. He closed his eyes and tried to calm down. ¡°You¡¯re my wife, my wife! I married you!¡±
Fang Xiaonuan saw that her husband really seemed to be in a lot of pain. Thest time she had seen a man in so much pain, it had been Ji Wen. Was that body part really that fragile?
She looked at her husband who was covering his crotch and felt a little guilty. However, she still said, ¡°You, you don¡¯t have to pretend anymore. I-I barely used any strength just now. It can¡¯t hurt that bad!¡±
After saying that, Fang Xiaonuan stole a nce at her husband¡¯s pained expression and thought to herself, ¡®Oh my God! I didn¡¯t cripple him, right?¡¯
She panicked and looked at her husband. She rushed forward. ¡°Hubby, don¡¯t scare me. I-I¡¯ll call for an ambnce. I¡¯ll take you to the hospital immediately.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan panicked and took out her phone to call for help.
The man grabbed the phone and turned to look at his flustered wife. ¡°Xiaonuan, you can attack other men¡¯s private parts, but you can¡¯t attack your husband there, understand?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan bit her lip. She knew that the atmosphere was not right, but she was worrying obsessively about something in particr. She immediately added, ¡°Hubby, I can¡¯t hit your son there either.¡±
Ji Lingchen chuckled.
When the pain passed, Ji Lingchen finally straightened up. He lowered his head to look at his worried little wife and made his stance clear. ¡°Xiaonuan, I¡¯ve been looking for Xiaoyu for more than ten years. I can¡¯t give up just because she¡¯s living a happy life now. Xiaonuan, my mother is still waiting for me to find her. She¡¯s waiting for me to bring Xiaoyu to visit her grave.¡±
Right now, in Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s mind, she did not care about Liu Siyu and Ji Xiaoyu at all. She was only thinking about whether her husband was all right after her kick.
Chapter 263 - 263 One Hundred Percent
263 One Hundred Percent
¡°Hubby, should we go to the hospital?¡± Fang Xiaonuan asked anxiously. ¡°Last time this happened, Xiaowen took two days off!¡±
¡°Xiaonuan, don¡¯t tell me that you were the one who kicked Xiaowen when she was in middle school?¡± Ji Lingchen asked, his head aching.
This time, it was Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s turn to remain silent. How did her husband know everything?
In order to show her unwavering loyalty to her husband and her love for him, Fang Xiaonuan promised, ¡°Hubby, don¡¯t worry. Even if you can¡¯t performter on, I will always be by your side. If it really doesn¡¯t work out, we can go for artificial insemination or in-vitro fertilization. Anyway, I¡¯ll take responsibility for my mistake. I¡¯ll be by your side for the rest of my life if I crippled you.¡±
Ji Lingchen¡¯s anger rose. What did she mean by can¡¯t perform? How could he be crippled by a single kick? Was he that weak?
He grabbed his wife¡¯s wrist and asked her to touch the injured area. ¡°Touch it and find out!¡±
¡°No, I don¡¯t want to! Ji Lingchen, you hooligan!¡± Fang Xiaonuan protested.
Fang Xiaonuan immediately retracted her hand. She only felt that she had touched a soft and warm spot, and her face immediately felt as if it was on fire. She looked at her husband who was teasing her, and her face puffed up in anger.
She stood beside him, blushing. Then, she scolded her husband, ¡°Ji Lingchen, you stinky hooligan, you¡¯re really shameless, pfft!¡± With that, Fang Xiaonuan ran off with a flushed face.
His wife was clearly scolding him, but the tortured Ji Lingchen was all smiles. Since things hade to this, he might as well carry out his shameless act to the end tonight!
Fang Xiaonuan ran out of the study and back to the bedroom. She immediately went to the bathroom to wash her hands. In the mirror, Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s face was as red as a ripe strawberry.
Not long after, someone opened the bedroom door. When she came out, she saw that her husband had entered. She turned off the tap and turned to leave.
Ji Lingchen watched as she ran away. ¡°Let¡¯s see where you¡¯re running to.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan went straight to Ji Wen¡¯s room and happened to see Feng Qi forcing Ji Wen to ept her motherly love. ¡°Xiaowen, let me apply some medicine for you. If you get scars, how are you going to find a wife in the future? All the girls will despise you.¡±
Ji Wen said, ¡°Mom, you can leave. There¡¯s a mirror. I can apply the medicine myself.¡±
¡°No, you can¡¯t do it yourself. I will help you.¡±
Ji Wen almost knelt down in front of his mother, but in the end, he was forced to ept his mother¡¯s care.
¡°Xiaonuan, you¡¯re here?¡± Feng Qi turned around and asked.
Fang Xiaonuan nodded and sat on Ji Wen¡¯s gaming chair as she watched them.
After Feng Qi finished applying the medicine for her son, she looked at Fang Xiaonuan and said, ¡°Xiaonuan, it¡¯s getting colder. Do you have enough clothes? I¡¯m going to have some custom-made. How about I order a few sets for you?¡±
¡°Sister-inw, there¡¯s no need. My closet is already full,¡± Fang Xiaonuan replied.
Ji Wen pushed Feng Qi away. ¡°Mom, I¡¯m begging you. Please go. I want to y some games. Good night, love you, and bye.¡±
¡°Good night? I haven¡¯t even had dinner.¡±
Feng Qi¡¯s son pushed her out of the room as soon as she finished speaking.
Ji Wen patted his chest and leaned against the door. He could not help but sigh. ¡°It¡¯s not easy to be the darling of the family. They won¡¯t leave me alone.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan whistled at Ji Wen, indicating for him toe over and sit.
Ji Wen was puzzled, ¡°What are you doing in my room? Are you done lecturing my uncle?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan had something important to discuss with Ji Wen. Only the two of them could know that she had hit her husband. Of course, she would not tell Ji Wen. But about Liu Siyu¡
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°Xiaowen, we¡¯ve been friends with Xiaoyu for so many years. Is there a bite scar on her arm?¡±
Ji Wen said, ¡°Bite scars? That doesn¡¯t seem right. Judging by her personality, if she had a scar, she would have gone for treatment long ago.¡±
¡°That¡¯s right,¡± Fang Xiaonuan said. ¡°I thought so too. But your uncle is not in his right mind. He insisted that Xiaoyu has bite scars on her arm.¡±
¡°You guys always sleep together,¡± Ji Wen said. ¡°Don¡¯t you know if she does?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°Who would care about such a small matter? I can¡¯t possibly grab Xiaoyu and force her to strip naked to see if there are any bite scars on her body, right?¡±
¡°But why is my uncle asking this?¡± Ji Wen thought it did not make sense.
¡°Your uncle is insane!¡±
Ji Wen looked at Fang Xiaonuan with admiration. How did this woman manage to turn his family upside down the moment she appeared? How did she be the darling of the family in such a short period of time? In the end, she even bested his uncle and became the person in the family with the highest status.
¡°Xiaonuan, please teach me,¡± Ji Wen said. Nothing else mattered to him more than besting his uncle too!
Fang Xiaonuan nced at him and instantly knew what he meant. ¡°When you fight with your life, you either live or die.¡±
¡°Take a look. What¡¯s the probability of me dying?¡± Ji Wen asked.
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°100%!¡±
Chapter 264 - 264 Physical Examination
264 Physical Examination
¡°D*mn, why would you say that?¡± Ji Wen said, unconvinced.
¡°I¡¯m his wife. What are you?¡± In one sentence, Ji Wen lost.
¡°If I were his niece, my uncle would definitely treat me very well,¡± Ji Wen said.
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°Don¡¯t even think about it. Even if you were his niece, your uncle would make you learn all sorts of self-defense skills.¡±
¡°Don¡¯t be too sure,¡± Ji Wen said.
Fang Xiaonuan asked, ¡°You don¡¯t believe me? Ask your mother to give you a sister.¡±
Ji Wen said, ¡°Get lost. Do you know how old my mother is? How can she give me a sister when I¡¯m old enough to be a father myself.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan smiled, then hid in Ji Wen¡¯s room for a long time.
During dinner, Fang Xiaonuan lowered her head around her husband. She did not meet his eyes.
¡°Okay!¡± Old Master Ji tapped on his phone. ¡°Xiaonuan,e and help me.¡±
¡°Dad, what¡¯s the matter?¡± Fang Xiaonuan immediately leaned over.
Old Master Ji ced the phone in front of Fang Xiaonuan. ¡°I really can¡¯t pass the 127th stage of this game. I saw you y more than a thousand stages of thisst time.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan picked up the phone and quickly helped him get through the level.
¡°As expected, my daughter-inw is amazing!¡±
Feng Qi said, ¡°Dad, don¡¯t y anymore. Eat properly. Xiaonuan, you go back to your seat too.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan looked at her husband, who was a seat away from her. ¡°I¡¯ll eat here.¡±
Feng Qi did not bother about the seating n. ¡°Sure, let¡¯s just eat like this. Anywhere is fine.¡±
After the meal, Fang Xiaonuan took a stroll outside for more than an hour. In the end, she dawdled for a long time before returning to her bedroom.
Ji Lingchen said, ¡°You actually came back? I thought you were going to sleep outside.¡±
¡°Hubby, are you feeling better?¡± Fang Xiaonuan asked. She had already expressed her determination to her husband in the afternoon. Regardless of whether they could bear children in the future, she would not leave him. In this case, she wouldn¡¯t get beaten up, right?
¡°Not good,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
Fang Xiaonuan looked at her husband, who was lying on the bed, with a worried expression.
¡°Come here.¡± Ji Lingchen waved at her.
Fang Xiaonuan slowly moved to the side of the bed and looked at her husband. ¡°Honey, what¡¯s up?¡±
¡°Take off your clothes and get into bed,¡± Ji Lingchen said.
¡°What do you want?¡± Fang Xiaonuan asked nervously.
¡°To sleep,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
¡°Oh my, I was so scared. I thought you were going to continue being a hooligan.¡± After saying that, Fang Xiaonuan turned around and went to the dressing room to get her pajamas before entering the bathroom. ¡°Hubby, you can sleep first. I¡¯ll go to sleep after a shower.¡±
Ji Lingchen stopped reading and stared at his wife¡¯s back with a burning gaze. ¡°It¡¯s fine. I¡¯ll wait for you.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s heart beat faster, and she felt a little uneasy. ¡°You should sleep first.¡±
¡°I can¡¯t even perform anymore, so what are you afraid of?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan furrowed her brows. Would a man admit that he was impotent so easily? Was her husband really impotent? However, her husband¡¯s words did make sense. If he could not perform, he could still sleep naked with her. She went into the bathroom to take a shower and came out forty minutester. After she came out, she sat in front of the dressing table and started to do her skincare.
Through the mirror, she realized that her husband was looking at her. ¡°Hubby, I know you hate me now, but can you stop staring? I can feel through the mirror that you want to take me.¡±
¡°That¡¯s right, I really want to,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
After Fang Xiaonuan was done with her skincare routine, she switched off the lights. Only the two wallmps at the head of the bed were still on. She walked to the other side of the bed and snuggled under the covers.
¡°Hubby, you really can¡¯t perform, right?¡± she asked with some anticipation.
¡°Do you want to take a look?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan immediately shook her head. ¡°No need. There¡¯s really no need. That would be too embarrassing!¡±
Ji Lingchen said, ¡°You¡¯re too embarrassed to look? You aren¡¯t going to check?¡±
¡°What?¡± Fang Xiaonuan was confused. ¡°How do I check?¡±
Ji Lingchen¡¯s movements were stealthy. He blocked his little wife, not letting her get into bed properly. While she was panicking, he moved so he was straddling her. ¡°Check personally!¡±
Fang Xiaonuan instantly understood. ¡°Hubby, you might not be able to. If you get upset, I¡¯m afraid that you might not hold back and that you¡¯ll beat me to death.¡±
Ji Lingchen held her waist with one hand and caressed her legs with the other, stirring her heart. ¡°I¡¯m unable to, but maybe I¡¯ll be fine after some stimtion.¡± As he spoke, he moved closer to his wife¡¯s neck and kissed her.
Under the covers, Fang Xiaonuan tugged at her nightgown tightly, not letting her husband go overboard.
She still had to free up one hand to push her husband. ¡°Hubby, it¡¯s too ticklish. Stop!¡±
Ji Lingchen¡¯s kiss became more passionate. His hands fumbled around his little wife¡¯s waist as he pulled her nightgown up.
Fang Xiaonuan instantly had goosebumps all over her body. In her panic, she said something that only tempted him further. ¡°Hubby, I¡¯ve finished checking. You really can¡¯t perform. You can stop now.¡±
Chapter 265 - 265 CEO Ji’s Wish is Fulfilled
265 CEO Ji¡¯s Wish is Fulfilled
Fang Xiaonuan had thought that her words would make her husband stop. However, not only did Ji Lingchen keep going, but he also became even more ferocious.
He held the back of her head firmly and kissed her hard, sucking on her soft lips.
Fang Xiaonuan was holding her nightgown down, so Ji Lingchen could not take it off. Instead, he tore it apart. Yes, he tore it apart!
Ji Lingchen¡¯s rough actions caused Fang Xiaonuan to panic. She no longer held onto her tattered nightgown and used both hands to push her husband away. Her heart was racing, and she was unprecedentedly nervous as she muttered, ¡°Hubby...¡±
Before she could finish her sentence, she was naked and exposed.
Ji Lingchen took off his pajamas and straddled Fang Xiaonuan, throwing the pajamas away.
Fang Xiaonuan, ¡°You¡¯re so silly.¡±
Before she could say anything else, she felt arge, warm hand on her chest. As the hand moved across her chest, Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s body trembled as if she had been electrocuted. She waspletely flustered.
She was afraid. She knew what she was about to face.
Ji Lingchen let go of her and caressed her shocked face. He chose to follow his wife¡¯s wishes again. ¡°Do you want to continue?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s heart was beating too fast, and her mind was nk. Her entire body was limp, and she had no idea what to say.
At that moment, her phone rang.
Fang Xiaonuan pointed at the phone with a trembling finger. ¡°Hubby! L-let me answer this call first.¡±
Ji Lingchen picked up the phone and threw it on the ground without even looking at it. The phone screen shattered.
Fang Xiaonuan hit her husband¡¯s chest. ¡°My phone is broken! Are you going to pay for it?!¡±
Ji Lingchen¡¯s eyes darkened as he said in a low, raspy voice, ¡°No one can disturb us now. I¡¯ll kill anyone who disturbs us!¡±
Fang Xiaonuan shrank back in fear. Her husband seemed to be really angry.
¡°Xiaonuan, do you choose to continue or do you want to be forced to continue?¡± Ji Lingchen asked again.
Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s voice was as soft as a mosquito¡¯s. ¡°C-can I say that I don¡¯t want to continue?¡± She heard that the first time was very painful. She was afraid of the pain.
Ji Lingchen smiled devilishly. He rubbed his thumb against his wife¡¯s cheek and kissed her forehead, nose, and lips. ¡°No,¡± he said.
Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s heart trembled. She knew that she would not be able to escape tonight. There was no hesitation here and it would be her first time. It was not a special day and it was not romantic either. It was just an ordinary day that could not be iner. She almost made her husband impotent with that kick, and now her husband using her, to see if he could still perform.
Fang Xiaonuan felt like crying, but no tears came out. She slowly closed her eyes.
Ji Lingchen knew that his little wife had tacitly agreed. He leaned over and gently kissed her lips, her delicate chin, then her delicate neck, all the way down until he held a pink ¡°little grape¡± in his mouth and savored it.
Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s body shuddered uncontrobly. The blush on her face had long since dissipated and spread to her entire body. Her fair skin now had a light pink shade to it. Her eyelids trembled slightly with her husband¡¯s movements, and her body also subconsciously moved. From time to time, she moaned.
His wife¡¯s smooth skin rubbed against Ji Lingchen¡¯s body as her sweet cries lingered in his ears. When he looked up to see his little wife¡¯s shy expression, he was instantly stimted by this sight. The lust in his body and heart reached its peak. How could he resist such temptation? He used thest of his rationality to gently pry open his little wife¡¯s legs. After rubbing himself against her opening several times, moisture emerged. It was warm and sticky. Ji Lingchen could no longer maintain his rationality as he pushed himself forward and went straight in.
Fang Xiaonuan gripped the bedsheets tightly. Her palms were covered in sweat, and the bedsheets were now wrinkled.
Ji Lingchen tried his best to be gentle, but his wife still cried out in pain.
Fang Xiaonuan felt that romance novels were full of lies, but they were not lying about the first time. She was in so much pain that her tears were about to fall. Feelings of grievance and shame welled up in her heart, and she sobbed as she tried to pull away from her husband.
However, at this moment, Ji Lingchen could not hear his wife¡¯s cries of protest. The moment he entered Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s body, he felt as if he had gone to heaven.
The bed sheets were in a mess, the girl¡¯s cries gradually became hoarse, and the man did not stop at all.
Fang Xiaonuan felt that her body no longer belonged to her. Her entire body was numb, and even her breaths were filled with her husband¡¯s scent. She had given up her first time, just like that.
Chapter 266 - 266 The Big Liar
266 The Big Liar
The moonlight was bright and the stars were numerous. All the lights in the vi were off, leaving only one room with only one light on.
¡
After an immeasurable period of time, the man finally stopped and pulled himself away from the girl¡¯s body.
Now that it was done, Fang Xiaonuan no longer had to be afraid, and Ji Lingchen was no longer starved.
Fang Xiaonuan felt her entire body go weak, and she did not even how she had fallen asleep. Herst memory was of Ji Lingchen on top of her asking, ¡°Honey, do you think I¡¯m impotent?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan did not reply, because she was crippled now!
Her husband¡¯s hot body wrapped around her tightly. Fang Xiaonuan felt some regret, but at the same time, she felt a little at ease. Very quickly, she disappeared into her dreams.
Seeing that his little wife was fast asleep, Ji Lingchen got up and carried her to the bathroom. After a while, he carried his sleeping little wife back in. Fang Xiaonuan was very petite, and Ji Lingchen could hold her firmly with one hand. He used his other hand to apply shower gel on his little wife, and her originally smooth skin became even smoother after the shower gel was applied. He carefully touched every inch of her skin. She was really exhausted and fast asleep. When he touched her sensitive areas, she would subconsciously cry out, making his heart jump, and he had a physiological reaction. While his little wife was still asleep, he lifted her up and did it once in the bathroom.
Of course, Fang Xiaonuan waspletely unaware of all this. She only woke up the next morning. When she got up, her entire head was buzzing.
Her usually fair and smooth skin was now covered in hickeys. Her eyelids were red and swollen from cryingst night.
At this moment, the man walked out of the cloakroom, full of energy and radiant. He looked at his little wife, who was in a daze on the bed, andughed in high spirits. Now that he had been satiated, he was in an extremely good mood. He walked over and sat by the bed. He moved closer to his wife¡¯s face and was about to kiss her.
¡°You big liar!¡± His wife started to curse.
¡°How did I lie to you?¡± Ji Lingchen asked with a smile.
¡°You¡¯re not impotent at all!¡± Fang Xiaonuan said.
¡°It seems like you were very satisfied with mest night!¡±
Fang Xiaonuan was speechless.
Her legs were weak and her body was weak. She was also naked and was in no shape to fight. She would endure it!
How could a starved tiger like him be satisfied just like that? He looked at his angry little wife and became aroused again. He held her small face and kissed her lips hard. He then mped her hand and pushed her onto the bed. He took her again.
His already neatly dressed suit had a lot of wrinkles.
Unable to escape, Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°Ji Lingchen, I¡¯ll dig out your eyes, cut off your tongue, cut off your ears, chop off your hands and mouth. Do you believe me?¡±
The fiercer Fang Xiaonuan scolded him, the fiercer Ji Lingchen became.
After they stopped, Fang Xiaonuan was thoroughly enraged!
¡°Does it hurt?¡± Ji Lingchen asked.
Fang Xiaonuan turned angrily, ¡°What do you think?¡±
Ji Lingchen had seen the blood on the bed sheetst night. He looked down at his little wife, who wanted to kill him. He got up and let her go. ¡°Don¡¯t go to school today. Rest at home. You didn¡¯t get much sleepst night.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan picked up the pillow beside her and threw it at her husband. ¡°Get out!¡±
Ji Lingchen caught the pillow and ced it at the end of the bed. ¡°I¡¯ll leave after I change my clothes.¡± His clothes were all wrinkled.
Under the nket, Fang Xiaonuan had wrapped herself tightly with the nket, only revealing half of her face. She was too embarrassed to get up and change. She waited for her husband to leave.
After a while, Ji Lingchen changed his clothes and walked out. He saw his little wife who was wrapped up tightly and smiled. ¡°Xiaonuan, you fell asleepst night. I was the one who carried you to the shower.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan was at a loss for words. Her husband had seen her entire body.
¡°I bought you a new phone. It¡¯ll be here soon,¡± Ji Lingchen added.
Fang Xiaonuan ridiculed her husband in her heart. ¡®You¡¯re the one who broke it!¡¯
Ji Lingchen put on his watch and smiled at the peeved little woman on the bed. ¡°It¡¯s official. I¡¯m not impotent.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan looked down shyly, her long eyshes like two thick brushes.
Ji Lingchen tidied up his clothes and sat on the bed.
When Fang Xiaonuan saw her husbanding close, she quickly pulled away and said, ¡°Don¡¯te near me.¡±
Ji Lingchen said, ¡°Xiaonuan, it was your first timest night. I can understand that you¡¯re embarrassed, but we¡¯re husband and wife. Something like that was bound to happen sometime. I hope you can get around to epting it soon.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan turned her head. ¡°You lied to mest night. There¡¯s nothing wrong with you at all. You said you wanted to use me to find out, but you just wanted to sleep with me!¡±
Chapter 267 - 267 The Lonely Ji Wen
267 The Lonely Ji Wen
Ji Lingchenughed. He pinched his wife¡¯s cheeks and said, ¡°Silly girl, if something really happens to me, the rest of your life will be ruined. Next time, if you want to hit me, hit anywhere but there, understand?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan pursed her lips and did not say anything.
Ji Lingchen looked at his watch and said, ¡°I¡¯ve pushed back my morning meeting to noon. I¡¯m going to work now. I¡¯lle home to apany you in the afternoon.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan nodded her head obediently, then stretched out a small hand from under the covers and waved at her husband. She said in her baby voice, ¡°Goodbye.¡±
!!
Ji Lingchen smiled lovingly, got up, and approached his wife. He nted a light kiss on her forehead and left the bedroom reluctantly.
Ji Lingchen was feeling smug as he made his way to the office.
¡°CEO Ji, could Liu Siyu really be Ms. Xiaoyu?¡± Assistant Liu asked.
Ji Lingchen smiled. ¡°We didn¡¯t get her hair yesterday, so we can¡¯t be sure. Don¡¯t tell my father and brother about this first.¡±
They had already suffered too many disappointments. Now that hope was close at hand, he did not want to give them hope and disappoint them again like before. He wanted to tell them once he waspletely sure.
¡°CEO Ji, why are you so happy today?¡± Assistant Liu asked, puzzled.
¡°Am I?¡± Ji Lingchen asked with a smile.
Assistant Liu nodded. Secretary Song also nodded and asked, ¡°Yes, CEO Ji, what happened? Did Madam give you another surprise?¡±
The only person who could make CEO Ji so happy was the madam.
¡°She didn¡¯t cause me any trouble and that¡¯s already good enough,¡± Ji Lingchen said dotingly.
¡°But CEO Ji, I didn¡¯t realize that you were unwilling to deal with her!¡± Secretary Song teased.
Ji Lingchen shook his head helplessly, but the smile on his face remained. ¡°Who asked her to marry me? If I don¡¯t handle her, who will?¡±
¡°We have a meeting now,¡± he said, holding the document. ¡°We have to end the meeting early. I¡¯ll go home early in the afternoon.¡±
Jing University.
Ji Wen, who still had injuries on his face, was feeling a little lonely.
The teacher took the attendance book to the ssroom and called out, ¡°Students, let¡¯s take attendance.¡±
¡°Liu Siyu.¡±
¡°Teacher!¡± Ji Wen raised his hand. ¡°Teacher, she¡¯s absent.¡±
The teacher drew a cross on the book and continued to call names. ¡°Fang Xiaonuan.¡±
Ji Wen raised his hand again. ¡°She¡¯s also absent.¡±
The teacher had been working in the university for many years and was used to students skipping sses, but he still asked Ji Wen, ¡°Ji Wen, did they skip ss together? Don¡¯t the three of you usually go to ss together?¡±
¡°Liu Siyu¡¯s older brother applied for leave on her behalf,¡± Ji Wen said. ¡°Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s husband applied for leave on her behalf.¡±
¡°Where¡¯s the leave slip?¡±
Ji Wen said, ¡°I think they were given verbal approval by a certain principal.¡±
The teacher was at a loss for words. How could he teach this ss now?
¡°Make sure they give me a leave of absence slip next time, or else I¡¯ll treat it as skipping ss.¡±
The teacher continued to call out names. ¡°Ji Wen. Oh, you¡¯re the only one here.¡±
Without waiting for Ji Wen to answer, the teacher continued to call names.
¡
In the Ji family¡¯s residence, Fang Xiaonuan got out of bed. The new phone had arrived. Her legs were sore, and it took her some time to move around. There was also a bloodstain on the bed sheet, which was evidence that she had said goodbye to her girlhood.
She was too embarrassed to let the servants handle this matter, so she took off the bedsheet and went to the bathroom to wash the stain off.
By noon, Fang Xiaonuan was famished, so she threw the bedsheets into the washing machine and went downstairs to eat.
¡°Eh? Xiaonuan, you skipped ss today?¡± Old Master Ji asked curiously when he saw Fang Xiaonuan at the dining table.
He saw his grandson going to school in the morning, so he asked again, ¡°Or did Ji Wen run out to y?¡±
¡°Dad, I took a day of leave,¡± Fang Xiaonuan said.
The servants brought the dishes up and she buried her head in the food.
Old Master Ji said, ¡°Xiaonuan, it¡¯s a good thing you¡¯re at home. Help me pass another level, please. I can¡¯t get past level 205.¡±
¡°Dad, you only cleared 100 or so levels yesterday, and you¡¯ve already cleared 205 levels today? Did you stay upte to y with your phone?¡±
When his daughter-inw found out that he had stayed upte to y games on his phone, Old Master Ji was embarrassed. ¡°Shush, lower your voice. I couldn¡¯t sleepst night, so I just yed for a little while.¡±
¡°Dad, tell me the truth. What time did you go to bed?¡±
¡°I was just ying a game,¡± Old Master Ji said guiltily. ¡°I won¡¯t die!¡±
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°Dad, if I find out that you¡¯re staying upte to y games again, I¡¯ll tell my husband. I¡¯ll get him to confiscate your phone!¡±
¡°You would do that?¡±
¡°Dad, try me.¡±
The two of them were at loggerheads, and neither of them was convinced by the other.
Fang Xiaonuan felt that Old Master Ji was too bored at home, so she taught him how to y games on his phone to kill time. However, he clearly had no self-control despite his age. He stayed up sote just to y games. If she had known that this would happen, she would not have taught him these things.
Chapter 268 - 268 Can’t Be Broken
268 Can¡¯t Be Broken
¡°Hmph!¡± Old Master Ji huffed. ¡°Now that you have a husband, you¡¯re always trying to scare me by threatening to tell on me!¡±
¡°That¡¯s right. He even personally gives me opportunities to tell on you!¡±
Old Master Ji was speechless. This young couple did not know how to thank him for being the matchmaker. They only knew how to bully him!
¡°You two are so heartless!¡±
¡
In the afternoon, when Ji Lingchen returned home, Fang Xiaonuan did not dare to make eye contact with him at all. She avoided his gaze, but Ji Lingchen kept staring at his wife.
When they reached the living room, Ji Lingchen immediately went over to hold his wife¡¯s hand. Fang Xiaonuan pulled her hand away, but he grabbed it again. Fang Xiaonuan was so angry that she ran to the courtyard to get some peace and quiet.
However, Ji Lingchen followed her out in less than half a minute. ¡°Xiaonuan.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan quickened her pace to prevent him from following her.
Ji Lingchenughed as he chased after her.
¡°Don¡¯t follow me!¡± Fang Xiaonuan was about to explode!
Ji Lingchenughed when he saw his little wife¡¯s angry expression. It turned out that he really liked her. Even though she was angry and even though she scolded him, he still found her so attractive.
He felt that his kitten was a treasure. She even sounded lovely when she was scolding him. Her little face was puffed up in anger, and she was so cute!
One tried to run away, while the other chased. It was evening now, and Fang Xiaonuan had no way of hiding. After her bath, she snuggled into bed and wrapped herself up like a dumpling.
Ji Lingchen went to bed a littleter. He had a taste of her and there was no way he had enough after only one night. Looking at the small bump on the nket, he smiled and walked over. ¡°Xiaonuan, are you asleep?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan closed her eyes tightly and did not respond.
Ji Lingchen lifted the nket and got under it. He then reached out to pull at his little wife¡¯s pajamas. Her nightdress fromst night had been torn to shreds. His wife had learned her lesson and was wearing two-piece pajamas tonight. Then, he would take it slow. He started to unbutton his wife¡¯s pajamas.
Fang Xiaonuan quickly grabbed her husband¡¯s hand and opened her eyes. She turned to warn him, ¡°We already did it yesterday. You¡¯re not allowed to have me today!¡±
¡°We¡¯re married. We can¡¯t just stop doing it,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
¡°You¡¯re a liar!¡± Fang Xiaonuan said.
¡°No, I can¡¯t wait to love you,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
¡°Don¡¯t give me excuses for your hooligan behavior!¡± Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°All of you men are terrible!¡±
Ji Lingchen shamelessly admitted on behalf of all the men in the world, ¡°Yes, indeed. There¡¯s nothing good about men.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan could no longer pretend to be asleep, but the thought of the tearing pain from the night before made her resist.
However, how could Ji Lingchen let her go? He whispered in her ear like a demon, ¡°Be good, trust me, okay?¡±
Ji Lingchen¡¯s methods were very effective. Fang Xiaonuan quickly lost all her strength to resist. She felt her entire body go limp, and the ces her husband had touched felt numb. The passionate kiss made her lose her mind and she took the initiative to wrap her arms around her husband¡¯s neck.
This time, without her husband¡¯s guidance, Fang Xiaonuan subconsciously spread her legs apart. Things like sex seemed to be an innate instinct. After she let go of her inhibitions, everything else felt natural.
Ji Lingchen easily entered his wife¡¯s body, and with each impact, his wife could not help but cry out.
Ji Lingchen put in even more effort when he heard her soft and coy voice. After he was done with one position, he turned his little wife over to try a new one.
Ji Lingchen clutched his wife¡¯s slender waist and rammed into her soft and tender body. This position gave him even more pleasure, but he did not like this position because he could not see his wife¡¯s face. After a while, he turned his little wife over again.
Three hourster, Fang Xiaonuan was sprawled on the bed, panting heavily. Her forehead was covered in sweat, and her body temperature seemed to have increased. Her face was flushed red.
Ji Lingchen turned her over and held her in his arms.
Her face was already red after the intimate contact with her husband. She had fallen asleep from exhaustionst night and did not feel anything. But now, facing her husband naked, with her skin against his, her face was tomato red. So, this was really life after marriage.
Fang Xiaonuan had sweated a lot and her mouth was dry. She said to her husband in a soft voice, ¡°Hubby, I want to drink some water.¡±
Before Ji Lingchen got up to get some water, he gave her a gentle kiss. He did not know if it was an illusion, but his wife¡¯s scent seemed to be even stronger than usual. This smell made him unable to stop.
Ji Lingchen brought over a cup of water. Fang Xiaonuan got up, clutched the cup with both hands, and raised her head to drink.
Chapter 269 - 269 Ji Wen Is in the Hospital
269 Ji Wen Is in the Hospital
After drinking the water, Fang Xiaonuan finally calmed down a little. At this moment, she suddenly remembered what Ji Wen had said when they first met at home. Fang Xiaonuan wanted to know if it was true, so she asked, ¡°Honey, are you sick in a way that makes you less energetic in bed?¡±
If her husband¡¯s kidney was weak and he could still torment her like this, wouldn¡¯t she be finished if he was in peak condition?
Ji Lingchen said, ¡°Less energetic?¡± Him?
¡°Who told you that?¡± he asked with a dark expression.
Fang Xiaonuan was a good girl, and she told her husband everything that had happened. ¡°When I first met Xiaowen here, he deliberately called me to the backyard and told me tactfully that you had some problems in that area. He also said that he was worried that I would live as a widow in the future.¡±
However, after two nights, her husband seemedpletely fine.
Ji Lingchen¡¯s expression darkened even more. ¡°Xiaonuan, if you¡¯re tired, you can sleep first. I¡¯m going out for a while.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan thought, ¡®Looks like hubby is going to teach him a lesson!¡¯
The next morning, when Fang Xiaonuan did not see Ji Wen around, she asked Feng Qi, ¡°Sister-inw, why isn¡¯t Xiaowen here?¡±
¡°He was sickst night, so Ji Lingchen took him to the hospital in the middle of the night.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan was speechless. She seemed to have understood something.
When she went to school in the morning, Ji Lingchen wanted to send her off, but Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°I want to go to the hospital to see Xiaowen.¡±
¡°He¡¯s still alive,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
Fang Xiaonuan looked at her husband, who had a dark expression on his face, and suddenly felt that he was very cruel. ¡°Did you do it?¡±
¡°Yes,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
¡°Is he crippled?¡±
¡°He might be soon!¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°Hubby, you¡¯re too brutal. Didn¡¯t he just say that you have a kidney issue? Was that really necessary?¡±
He was even more ruthless than her. She felt a little sorry for Xiaowen. He had yet to recover from his previous injuries, and now he had new ones.
However, she hadpletely forgotten who was the cause of this.
When she arrived at the school, Fang Xiaonuan saw Liu Siyu limping.
Fang Xiaonuan hurriedly went over to help her up and asked, ¡°What happened to you?¡±
¡°Don¡¯t even mention it. I sprained my ankle the day before yesterday!¡± Liu Siyu got angry at the mention of this.
Fang Xiaonuan asked, ¡°How did you sprain your ankle?¡±
¡°It was the day before yesterday,¡± Liu Siyu said gloomily. ¡°After we parted, my brother didn¡¯t take me home. He insisted on taking me to the hospital¡¯s cosmetic surgery department. He asked the doctor to remove my scars with aser. When I heard that I need to be injected with anesthetic to remove the scar, I was scared and didn¡¯t want to do it.¡±
¡°My brother insisted that I do theser surgery. I sprained my ankle when I was trying to escape, and then I became like this.¡±
¡°By the way, I called you the night before yesterday to ask for a leave of absence, but no one picked up. When I called again, your phone was turned off. What were you doing?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan caught the important bit of information, but she ignored the second half of the sentence. She asked nervously, ¡°Xiaoyu, do you have a scar on your arm?¡±
¡°Yeah, how did you know?¡± Liu Siyu asked.
Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s heart raced. She stared at Liu Siyu¡¯s facial features and recalled what her husband had said before. ¡°Siyu, do you have O-type blood?¡±
¡°I think so,¡± Liu Siyu said doubtfully. ¡°I didn¡¯t try to remember. I only remember that vaguely. I didn¡¯t donate blood or anything. What¡¯s wrong?¡±
Liu Siyu looked at her frightened best friend and quickly helped her along. ¡°Where¡¯s Xiaowen?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan sat there with a nk look in her eyes. Then, as if she had a sudden realization, she stood up abruptly and said, ¡± Xiaoyu, Xiaowen was badly injuredst night. Let¡¯s go to the hospital to see him immediately.¡±
Liu Siyu, ¡°Huh? Do we go now?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan pulled on Liu Siyu¡¯s hand and said, ¡°Yes, we¡¯re leaving now. We can¡¯t dy any longer. If we¡¯rete, we might never see Xiaowen again!¡± After saying that, the two of them walked out slowly. Fang Xiaonuan wanted to be fast, but Liu Siyu¡¯s injury made moving fast inconvenient.
Fang Xiaonuan did not drive today, so she hailed a taxi by the roadside. ¡°Sir, please head to the First People¡¯s Hospital of Jing City.¡±
The inpatient department in the hospital.
Ji Weny on the bed, doing nothing. He looked at the ceiling, dumbfounded.
¡°If I¡¯ve done anything heartless in my past life, please let the heavens punish me. Why did I be Ji Lingchen¡¯s nephew?¡± he muttered to himself.
When they arrived at the hospital, Fang Xiaonuan rented a wheelchair and pushed her injured friend around. They went straight to the ward and saw Ji Wen, who was lying on the bed with nothing to live for.
¡°F*ck! Liu Siyu, why are you disabled too?¡± Ji Wen asked, rmed, after seeing Liu Siyu.
But when he saw Fang Xiaonuan behind her, he cursed. ¡°Fang Xiaonuan, d*mn you, what exactly did you say to my uncle? The moment he entered my roomst night, he started beating me up without saying a word. How did I provoke you?¡±
Chapter 270 - 270 The Two Disabled Ones
270 The Two Disabled Ones
Fang Xiaonuan walked to the bed and raised her hand to hit Ji Wen on the head. ¡°Shut up! Why are you so loud?¡±
Then, she deliberately grabbed Ji Wen¡¯s head and pulled out two strands of hair. In Ji Wen and Liu Siyu¡¯s eyes, she seemed to be teaching him a lesson.
¡°Fang Xiaonuan, I¡¯ll be irreconcble with you and your husband for the rest of my life!¡± Ji Wen shouted resentfully, his voice so loud that everyone in the corridor could hear him clearly.
Fang Xiaonuan carefully kept Ji Wen¡¯s hair in her pocket, then walked back to Liu Siyu and pushed her to the side of Ji Wen¡¯s bed. She quickly swept away the hair on Liu Siyu¡¯s shoulder.
¡°You guys chat here for a while. I¡¯m going out for a while and will be back soon.¡± After Fang Xiaonuan finished speaking, she left with the two strands of hair from each of them.
In the ward, Liu Siyu turned around and shouted at the door, ¡°Hey! Xiaonuan, you¡¯re leaving us two disabled people here?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan could not care less. She quickly ran to the hospital¡¯s forensic identification department, registered, and handed the hair to the nurse. She asked, ¡°Can youpare the DNA between an aunt and nephew?¡±
¡°The test can determine a familial rtionship,¡± the nurse replied.
¡°Alright, alright. Familial rtionship is enough. Please hurry up.¡± Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s heart was about to leap out of her throat. She had forgotten that there were still two disabled people in the ward. She had applied for an urgent appraisal fee, but it would still take three hours.
In the ward, Ji Wen looked at Liu Siyu and said, ¡°Siyu, I want to go to the toilet.¡±
¡°What¡¯s the use of telling me? Do you think I can support you?¡± Liu Siyu patted her leg and said, ¡°I don¡¯t even have a walking stick.¡±
Ji Wen said, ¡°Don¡¯t you have a wheelchair? Did I ask you to prop me up? you should help me get a nurse!¡±
Liu Siyu lowered her head and looked at the wheelchair, ¡°But, how do I move this thing? It¡¯s my first time, how could I know?¡±
Ji Wen helplessly looked at the ceiling. After a while, he really could not hold it in anymore. He could only strenuously reach for the call bell at the head of the bed. He finally seeded after failing dozens of times.
The phone rang, and the nurse¡¯s voice came from it. ¡°Bed 25? What is it?¡±
¡°Can I trouble a nurse to help me?¡± Ji Wen asked.
Liu Siyu was still ying with her wheelchair. ¡°What sort of wheelchair did Fang Xiaonuan rent for me? it doesn¡¯t even know how to spin!¡±
¡
Fang Xiaonuan had disappeared three times. This time, Liu Siyu finally understood how to use the wheelchair.
She managed to move around Ji Wen¡¯s bed. ¡°Xiaowen, this wheelchair is too convenient. I¡¯ll get the nurse to get you er. We¡¯ll get one each.¡±
Ji Wen, ¡°I can¡¯t sit in a wheelchair.¡±
Liu Siyu said, ¡°Oh, right, I forgot that you¡¯re seriously injured. But why did your uncle beat you up so badly?¡±
Ji Wen said, ¡°If I knew the reason, I would be able to rest in peace.¡±
Liu Siyu felt that Ji Wen was really pitiful, even more so than her.
Fang Xiaonuan had finally returned. She looked at Liu Siyu, then at Ji Wen. The two of them were chatting happily.
No wonder she had always felt that the two of them looked alike. She had originally thought that they were soulmates like legends foretold, but in the end, they were actually aunt and nephew!
But the problem was, if Siyu was her husband¡¯s sister who had gone missing for many years, then where was the real Liu Siyu?
She had seen photos of Liu Siyu when she was young. This person really existed. What happened in between? Also, did the Liu family know that Liu Siyu was not their biological daughter? The Liu family knew.
This child¡¯s appearance had changed so much over the years. How could they not know? Could it be that the people who kidnapped Xiaoyu and Ji Lingchen were from the Liu family? But why did they treat Liu Siyu like their own daughter? Liu Siyu is the apple of the Liu family¡¯s eye.
¡°You¡¯re back. Why are you standing at the door? Are you guarding the door?¡± Liu Siyu said sarcastically.
Only then did Fang Xiaonuan return to her senses and enter the ward. Then, the pairined about how unreliable she had been earlier.
Liu Siyu had even bragged to Fang Xiaonuan that she had learned a new skill, wheelchair-riding.
¡
In the afternoon, Liu Siyan picked up Liu Siyu. When he found out that Liu Siyu was in the hospital, he immediately rushed over and reprimanded Liu Siyu for being disobedient.
¡°Brother Liu, are you afraid that Liu Siyu will run into my husband?¡± Fang Xiaonuan asked calmly.
Liu Siyan looked at Fang Xiaonuan, and the two of them looked at each other.
Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s words pierced Liu Siyan¡¯s heart.
Liu Siyan had no idea about Liu Siyu¡¯s rtionship with the Ji family, but after Ji Lingchen mentioned the scar on Liu Siyu¡¯s arm, he felt uneasy.
After Liu Siyan left with Liu Siyu, only Ji Wen and Fang Xiaonuan were left in the ward.
Chapter 271 - 271 Destined to Be a Family
271 Destined to Be a Family
Ji Wen asked Fang Xiaonuan, ¡°Hey! Why did your husband beat me upst night?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan did not answer his question. Instead, she calmly said, ¡°Xiaowen, Siyu is your aunt.¡±
Ji Wen scoffed. ¡°Do you think I¡¯m an idiot?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan looked at the ¡°idiot¡± on the bed. He was clearly not very smart!
¡°Alright, you idiot. You can rest. I¡¯ve already found a nurse for you.¡± She picked up her bag and left the ward.
Ji Lingchen only returned home at nine. He had a social event to attend that day, so he returned home a littleter.
Fang Xiaonuan had been waiting for him for a long time.
Ji Lingchen thought that his little wife was anxious to sleep with him. He hugged his little wife and was about to kiss her when Fang Xiaonuan pushed him away. She then took out a folded piece of paper from her pocket and said calmly, ¡°Hubby, I¡¯ve found Xiaoyu.¡±
The lust in Ji Lingchen¡¯s eyes dissipated as he looked at his wife. The bedroom fell silent. He let go of his wife¡¯s soft body and asked, ¡°You did a DNA test?¡±
¡°Yes,¡± Fang Xiaonuan replied calmly, ¡°I¡¯m the only one who could get a strand of her hair.¡±
She told her husband about how she had gotten her hair and how she had waited in the hospital for three hours. Then, she sincerely apologized to her husband, ¡°Hubby, I¡¯m sorry. I didn¡¯t believe you before. The test proves that Liu Siyu and Ji wen are indeed rted by blood.¡±
Ji Lingchen¡¯s mind buzzed when he heard that. He could not believe what he just heard. He had been searching for Ji Xiaoyu for fifteen years, and now that he had found her, he was at a loss. The test results that his wife handed to him felt heavy in his grasp. He slowly unfolded the folded report and read it. He was in shock, like he had been pierced by something. He was stunned and could not move.
Fang Xiaonuan had not expected things to turn out like this. When she received the report in the afternoon, she was in the same state as her husband. Her mind was nk and she was beyond shocked.
¡°Hubby, you can give your mother an exnation now.¡±
Ji Lingchen¡¯s eyes reddened as he looked at the piece of paper in his hand.
This was the first time Fang Xiaonuan had seen her husband in such a state. Seeing his reddened eyes, her heart ached as well. She opened her arms and hugged her husband.
That night, Ji Lingchen brought his wife to his mother¡¯s memorial tablet. Fang Xiaonuan had never paid her respects to a deceased person before, so she did not know what to do. She did as her husband told her. There was only one cushion, so Ji Lingchen knelt on the ground and ced the cushion under Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s knees.
Fang Xiaonuan looked at her mother-inw¡¯s memorial tablet. It was very dark. She would normally be afraid, but with her husband by her side, she was not afraid at all.
There was a basin in front of the mat. Ji Lingchen opened the test report, lit it, and threw it into the basin to burn it.
¡°Hubby, Dad and Brother haven¡¯t even looked at it, and you¡¯ve already burned it?¡±
Ji Lingchen looked at his wife and asked, ¡°Xiaonuan, are you afraid of Mom¡¯s photo?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan raised her head and looked at the woman in the photo who had a gentle smile on her face. She shook her head. ¡°Maybe mom knows that I¡¯m her daughter-inw, so she can¡¯t bear to make me afraid.¡±
¡°Then, can you apany me here tonight?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan nodded her head solemnly. She could not bear to let her husband stay in such a dark ce for the entire night.
The report had been burnt to ashes.
Ji Lingchen held his wife¡¯s hand and said to the memorial tablet, ¡°Mom, we found Xiaoyu. it¡¯s all because of your daughter-inw.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan shook her head. She did not dare to take the credit. ¡°Mom, the credit isn¡¯t mine. It belongs to my husband who hasn¡¯t given up all these years. I didn¡¯t believe him at first and even quarreled with him. But in the end, I realized that my husband was right.¡±
¡°But without Xiaonuan, I wouldn¡¯t have had the chance to meet Xiaoyu.¡± Ji Lingchen looked at his obedient little wife who was kneeling beside him. ¡°If it weren¡¯t for Xiaonuan, I wouldn¡¯t have gotten the test report so quickly.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan felt a little guilty. If she had listened to her husband earlier and had been less stubborn, she might have gotten this test report a long time ago.
She looked up at the memorial tablet and said, ¡°Mother, you don¡¯t have to worry too much about Xiaoyu. She has not been suffering. Her adoptive parents and the Liu family¡¯s oldest son are very good people. They really dote on Xiaoyu. I¡¯ve known Xiaoyu since middle school, and Xiaowen too.¡±
Thinking of the unlucky child lying in the hospital, Fang Xiaonuan added, ¡°I don¡¯t know if it¡¯s a good thing or a bad thing for Xiaowen. He only has two good friends. I became his aunt, and Xiaoyu ended up his aunt too.¡±
He had be the nephew of his two best friends. This was probably fate. They were destined to be a family.
Chapter 272 - 272 What Kind of Fate
272 What Kind of Fate
Fang Xiaonuan continued to ramble, ¡°Mom, I think you must have been blessed by the heavens. Otherwise, how could there be such a coincidence? You must¡¯ve seen me and liked me, so you let me be best friends with your grandson and daughter, right?¡±
¡°Then, you realized that your son didn¡¯t even have a girlfriend, so you decided to let me be your son¡¯s wife.¡±
¡°Mom, you really have good taste. This marriage is really good for us. My husband is good in every way, but he has a cold heart. My heart is warm, so I ended up being able to warm my husband¡¯s heart.¡±
¡°Although we didn¡¯t have the chance to meet, I think you¡¯d definitely like me if you were still here. You already like me. If I sit on the floor and chat with you, you won¡¯t mind, right?¡± After saying that, Fang Xiaonuan rubbed her knees. She had been kneeling for a long time, and her legs were numb.
Ji Lingchen quickly stood up and pulled his wife up. ¡°If you can¡¯t kneel, then don¡¯t. Mom won¡¯t be angry.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan was finally able to rx her knees, but standing for a long time would also tire her out. Thus, she simply sat down on the cushion and crossed her legs, as if she was meditating. She then leaned her body against her husband¡¯s body, which was much morefortable. After a while, she fell asleep. In the end, she fell asleep on her husband¡¯sp like a kitten.
In the dark room, Ji Lingchen faced his mother¡¯s memorial tablet for the first time without a sense of loneliness and guilt.
¡°Mom, I¡¯ve found Xiaoyu. I finally don¡¯t feel guilty when I see you. Xiaonuan is a lively and adorable person. With her by my side, I don¡¯t feel lonely anymore. I¡¯ve been looking for Xiaoyu for 15 years, and she¡¯s kept me going for these 15 years as well. It¡¯s time to change.¡± As he spoke, he caressed his little wife¡¯s face.
In the wee hours of the morning, Fang Xiaonuan, who was sleeping soundly, was carried back to her room by her husband. When she woke up, she was already on her bed.
Fang Xiaonuan scratched her head and asked, ¡°Huh? I was chatting with my husband and mother-inw, right? How did I get back?¡±
She had already changed into her pajamas. It must have been her husband who loved to take advantage of her.
Just as she was about to get off the bed, Ji Lingchen pushed the door open and entered. ¡°You¡¯re awake.¡±
¡°Yeah, when did you carry me back?¡±
¡°Your mother-inw must have been worried that you¡¯ll catch a cold. She asked me to carry you back,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
Ji Lingchen had a smile on his face ever since he found his sister.
He kissed his wife who had just woken up and said, ¡°Xiaonuan, you¡¯re my lucky charm.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan, however, said in an unromantic manner, ¡°Hubby, don¡¯t praise me so much. If I make you angry in the future, you¡¯ll think that I¡¯m more of a jinx than a lucky charm!¡±
¡°I won¡¯t,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
¡°Hubby, you can¡¯t be so sure. I can¡¯t even control my ability to anger people,¡± Fang Xiaonuan said.
Ji Lingchen chuckled.
When Fang Xiaonuan was washing up with her husband, she asked him, ¡°Hubby, are you going to tell Xiaoyu now?¡±
There were still many things that Ji Lingchen had yet to investigate. Now that he had found his sister, he could finally rx. If he were to act rashly, he was worried that it would upset his sister.
Ji Lingchen calmly analyzed the current situation, then said to his wife, ¡°Xiaonuan, can you take me to the Liu family¡¯s home?¡±
¡°Sure, no problem,¡± Fang Xiaonuan replied.
After washing up, she picked up her school bag and went to school.
Seeing Liu Siyu again, Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s feelings for her became more potent. After all this, her best friend had be her sister-inw. She rested her chin on her hand and stared at her.
¡°What are you looking at me for?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan asked, ¡°What kind of dogsh*t fate do you think the three of us have?¡±
Liu Siyu said, ¡°Please say something I¡¯ll understand!¡±
Fang Xiaonuan shook her head and kept her mouth shut. It was not that she meant to keep it from her. It was that her husband had deliberately instructed her not to tell Xiaoyu first. He was afraid to agitate his sister.
For some reason, Fang Xiaonuan felt that even the winter sun was warm when she found out that her best friend was her sister-inw. Even the cold air seemed to have turned warm.
Feeling joyful, Fang Xiaonuan ate a thousandyer durian cake for lunch and rice noodles in the afternoon. Then, she bought arge portion of stinky tofu after school. She ate it as she walked.
Liu Siyu was still limping. She asked in confusion, ¡°Xiaonuan, what has you in such a good mood? Why did you eat so much today?¡±
¡°Oh, something great happened at home.¡± As she spoke, Fang Xiaonuan stuffed two pieces of stinky tofu into her mouth.
The person who took her home was Ji Lingchen.
The person who came to pick Liu Siyu up had also arrived. It was Liu Siyan.
Chapter 273 - 273 Snail Rice Noodles
273 Snail Rice Noodles
This time, when the four of them met, Ji Lingchen did not look at Liu Siyu with a probing gaze. Instead, he asked with a loving smile, ¡°What happened to your leg?¡±
Seeing Ji Lingchen¡¯s smile, Liu Siyu felt less afraid of him. She replied, ¡°I sprained my ankle when I was going down the stairs.¡±
¡°Be careful when on your way home. Pay attention to how you¡¯re walking,¡± Ji Lingchen instructed.
Liu Siyu nced at Fang Xiaonuan and replied with an ¡°Ok¡± before getting into the car with Liu Siyan.
Fang Xiaonuan promised her husband, ¡°Hubby, don¡¯t worry. Xiaoyu is my sister-inw. As her sister-inw, I will definitely take good care of her.¡±
Ji Lingchen smiled at his little wife. ¡°Ah! I didn¡¯t know that my naughty kitten knows how to take care of others.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan hugged her husband¡¯s arm and said coyly, ¡°I can learn. She¡¯ll just be my guinea pig.¡±
Liu Siyu and Liu Siyan left.
Just as Ji Lingchen was about to bring his wife home, Fang Xiaonuan stopped him. ¡°Hubby, give me a moment. I¡¯ll bring some food back for Dad.¡±
Ji Lingchen held his little wife¡¯s hand as they walked around the campus. When they arrived at the stall selling snail rice noodles, a strong sour smell assaulted their nostrils.
Ji Lingchen furrowed his brows. Did his wife want to bring this into his car?
¡°One serving to go, please!¡±
Ji Lingchen¡¯s mood instantly soured. ¡°Xiaonuan, isn¡¯t this thing a little too stinky?¡±
¡°It smells stinky, but it¡¯s delicious!¡± Fang Xiaonuan said. She did not notice her husband¡¯s disdainful expression or the fact that he was pinching his nose.
Ji Lingchen wondered how he ended up with a wife who had such unique tastes.
However, no matter how ufortable Ji Lingchen was, he did not stop his wife and allowed her to bring the stinky snail rice noodles into the car.
The car was immediately filled with a sour smell.
Ji Lingchen quickly rolled down the car windows and pinched his nose. He was almost unable to breathe.
It was only then that Fang Xiaonuan noticed her husband¡¯s actions and expression. She smiled evilly and said, ¡°Hubby, you can¡¯t stand the smell?¡±
¡°But you know what? Think about it. Imagine that every time you kiss me, I¡¯ve just had a bowl of this. If I burp ¡¡±
¡°Stop talking.¡± Ji Lingchen could not bear to listen any longer.
His wife¡¯s mouth was obviously fragrant and sweet, so why did she have to eat something as smelly as this?
Fang Xiaonuan had sessfully disgusted her husband. She pouted at her husband, who was driving. ¡°Hubby, I had durians for lunch, snail rice noodles for lunch, and stinky tofu just now. Can you still kiss me today?¡±
¡°Brush your teeth when we get home.¡± Ji Lingchen frowned.
¡°I won¡¯t!¡± Fang Xiaonuan replied.
¡°I¡¯ll drag you to the bathroom myself. I¡¯ll make sure you smell good again,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
Fang Xiaonuan was so happy that she giggled. Then, she said, ¡°Tomorrow is Saturday. Hubby, if you¡¯re free, let¡¯s visit the Liu family.¡±
Ji Lingchen nced at his little wife. As expected, she understood him. She was probably the girl his mother had always meant to choose for him.
After returning home, Fang Xiaonuan walked inside with the snail rice noodles. The servants all retreated.
Feng Qi also covered her nose and sniffed, ¡°Xiaonuan, what did you buy? Why is it so smelly?¡±
¡°This is the delicious snail rice noodles I bought for Dad,¡± Fang Xiaonuan said.
¡°I won¡¯t eat that sh*t!¡± Old Master Ji pinched his nose and cringed.
¡°Don¡¯t you regret this!¡±
Ten minutester, Old Master Ji was wiping his nose and slurping the bowl of sour and stinky soup. ¡°Xiaonuan, you¡¯re so good to me!¡±
¡°Dad, didn¡¯t you just say that this was sh*t?!¡±
¡°What¡¯s wrong with you?¡± Old Master Ji asked. ¡°Don¡¯t say that.¡± Old Master Ji wiped his nose again. ¡°But Xiaonuan, next time when you buy this, ask for less chili oil. My nose is killing me.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°I know. This is already less spicy. Next time, I¡¯ll buy you something even milder.¡±
Old Master Ji had tried something new. After he finished eating, he did not forget to post a picture of it on his WeChat moments, praising the dish.
After sending the message, Old Master Ji went to the living room with his phone. ¡°Give my photo a like, Feng Qi. My two sons, give my photo a like too.¡±
Ji Lingchen handed his phone to his wife. ¡°Xiaonuan, give Dad a like. I¡¯m going to take a shower.¡± He felt like his entire body was covered in the stench of the noodles.
Feng Qi also went upstairs to take a shower after liking the post.
After a while, Fang Xiaonuan was dragged into the bathroom by her husband.
She did not want to go, so Ji Lingchen just carried her.
Chapter 274 - 274 Visiting a Patient
274 Visiting a Patient
In the bathroom, Fang Xiaonuan roared, ¡°Ji Lingchen, why are you here when I¡¯m taking a shower!?¡±
¡°I¡¯ll supervise you,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
¡°I don¡¯t need your supervision, get out!¡±
¡°Otherwise, you might not do a good job of cleaning yourself,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°Hubby, if youe any closer, I¡¯m going to burp. I¡¯ll smoke you out!¡±
¡°Be good. Brush our teeth first,¡± Ji Lingchen said.
After Fang Xiaonuan finished brushing her teeth, she felt unwell. She felt naked and exposed again.
In the bathroom, the two bodies were intertwined, but because there was no bed and no ce to lie down, the two were forced to explore new positions.
Fang Xiaonuan did not know anything, so she could only listen to her husband¡¯s instructions.
In the end, her husband lifted her up and her back was pressed against the wall. Her husband was afraid that her back would feel cold, so he even ced a towel behind her.
After a while, the two of them moved to the toilet.
Fang Xiaonuan was extremely embarrassed. She had only heard of people doing this on the toilet bowl, but she had never tried it herself. It turned out that the toilet bowl could also be used to do this. It was both embarrassing and strange. She would never be able to look directly at the toilet bowl again!
Two hourster, Fang Xiaonuan was lying in bed, feeling weak all over.
Ji Lingchen, on the other hand, was in high spirits. He hugged his young wife and gently caressed her, unable to let her go.
Fortunately, the next day was a Saturday, so Ji Lingchen could truly enjoy his wife¡¯spany.
Fang Xiaonuan was like a fish on a chopping board, already disoriented and at her husband¡¯s disposal.
Ever since they entered this stage of married life, she hadpletely lost the time to y with her phone at night. If she could not get up in the morning, her husband would not wake her up.
Every day, Fang Xiaonuan would wake up naturally. When the sun shone into her room, she would shout, ¡°Hubby, the curtains aren¡¯t closed!¡±
At that time, Ji Lingchen would immediately close the curtains.
Fang Xiaonuan was not in the mood to eat.
¡°Xiaonuan, what¡¯s wrong with you?¡± Old Master Ji asked with concern. Why did this child look like she was on drugs? She looked so lethargic.
Fang Xiaonuan rested her chin on her hand and started to doubt her life. She had wanted to go to the Liu family¡¯s house in the afternoon, but she had put it off until the afternoon. Following her directions, the two of them arrived at the Liu family¡¯s main entrance.
Since he was here to visit, he had to bring gifts.
Ji Lingchen opened the trunk and took out many gifts. He even brought some bone-nourishing food.
Fang Xiaonuan knocked on the door. ¡°Xiaoyu, I¡¯m here. Are you in?¡±
Liu Siyu was resting her feet on the coffee table, enjoying the fact that her brother had to wait on her. When she heard the voice, she turned to look at Liu Siyan. ¡°Brother, go and open the door for Xiaonuan. She¡¯s here to see me.¡±
¡°Didn¡¯t I tell you not to let other peoplee over?¡±
Even though he said that, he still went to open the door.
When he saw Ji Lingchen standing beside Fang Xiaonuan, his expression darkened.
Ji Lingchen was no longer at loggerheads with Liu Siyu. It was as if he had already found out what he wanted to know from Liu Siyu.
¡°Brother Liu, Xiaoyu is injured and I can¡¯t drive. My husband happened to be home, so I asked him to take me to see Xiaoyu.¡±
Since the guests were already here, there was no reason to drive them away.
Liu Siyan could only force himself to open the door, ept the gifts, and invite the two into the house.
The moment Fang Xiaonuan entered the house, she sprinted toward her sister-inw who was on the sofa. ¡°Siyu, my husband and I are here to see you.¡±
Liu Siyu realized that her best friend had note alone. There was a scary man behind her. She quickly took her feet off the coffee table and sat obediently.
She tried to speak to Fang Xiaonuan with her eyes. It looked like she was saying ¡°You could¡¯vee yourself. Why did you bring your husband?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan nced at her husband, then blinked at Liu Siyu as if to say, ¡°It¡¯s not like you don¡¯t know that my driving skills are terrible. If I be disabled too, the three of us will be disabled!¡±
Ji Wen was still recuperating in the hospital.
Liu Siyu¡¯s ankle injury had not recovered.
If Fang Xiaonuan were to crash into the road or a tree, and got hurt, it would be over! If it was just the car that suffered, it would still be fine. Then, the three of them would really be in the same boat. If they were hospitalized together, they would be able to y fight thendlord!
¡°Xiaoyu, how¡¯s your leg?¡± Ji Lingchen asked.
For some reason, she felt that Ji Lingchen was gazing at her with a lot of gentleness and love. He had looked at her that way since theirst meeting. This made her feel very embarrassed.
Who knew that it was about to get even more awkward! She was about to reach for the bottle of water near Liu Siyan, but before she could reach it, she called out, ¡°Brother, I want some water.¡±
Then, the two men got up at the same time and reached for the water bottle. They almost snatched it from each other.
Liu Siyu was speechless.
F*ck! She was clearly talking to her brother, so why was her friend¡¯s husband so enthusiastic?
Chapter 275 - 275 A Wonderful Method
275 A Wonderful Method
Fang Xiaonuan looked at her husband. She understood how he felt. After all, he had been searching for his younger sister for 15 years. ¡°Ah, I always call my husband ¡®Brother¡¯ at home. He must be used to it.¡±
Liu Siyu looked at her strange best friend and asked her with his eyes, ¡°You keeping up with lies. Let¡¯s see what else you cane up with.¡±
Ji Lingchen also felt that his wife¡¯s excuse was inappropriate. Last night, when they were in the bathroom, she suddenly called him ¡°Uncle¡±, which made him so angry. Of course, she was punished in the end. Afterst night, Ji Lingchen had thought of a perfect way to punish his little wife. He would sleep with her. If taking her once was not enough, then he would do it twice. His little wife would definitely be obedient the next day. Now, his wife waspletely under his control!
Coming back to the present, Ji Lingchen also felt that he had behaved inappropriately. He quickly let go and let Liu Siyan pass the bottle to Liu Siyu.
!!
¡°Brother, my feet are cold!¡± Liu Siyu said to her brother in a spoiled manner.
Liu Siyan went upstairs to get a nket to cover her legs. He even picked his sister up and brought her closer to him.
Ji Lingchen said, ¡°I¡¯ll get my assistant to buy you a thermos and deliver it here. It¡¯s cold. Keep yourself warm.¡±
Liu Siyu was at a loss for words. This was way too strange! Why was her best friend¡¯s husband treating her so well?
Liu Siyan¡¯s expression turned even more unsightly. ¡°CEO Ji, I can buy anything my sister needs. It¡¯s gettingte, so you should head back with Xiaonuan!¡±
Liu Siyan was so angry that he directly asked him to leave.
Fang Xiaonuan also felt very awkward. She stood up and said, ¡°Well, Brother Liu, Siyu, my husband and I will be leaving first.¡±
She then pointed at the supplements on the ground. ¡°My husband asked someone to buy these. They can speed up Xiaoyu¡¯s recovery.¡±
Ji Lingchen had a preliminary understanding of the Liu family, and he had alsoe to the conclusion that Liu Siyu was very dependent on her brother.
After exiting the Liu residence, Ji Lingchen got into the car. Fang Xiaonuan stood at the door and said goodbye to Siyu, ¡°I¡¯m leaving. I¡¯lle back to see you another day.¡±
Liu Siyu tugged at Fang Xiaonuan and asked in a low voice, ¡°What¡¯s wrong with your husband today?¡±
Hended his nephew in the hospital, but he was so concerned about a stranger like her. Not only did he give her tonics, but he also came to visit her.
Fang Xiaonuan looked at her husband in the car. ¡°Don¡¯t bother about him. He has a lot of problems and likes to meddle in other people¡¯s business.¡±
On the way back, Fang Xiaonuan spoke. She sighed ¡°It¡¯s a good thing I know that Xiaoyu is your sister. If I didn¡¯t know, I would have thought that you were plotting against her!¡±
Just as she finished speaking, her husband knocked her on the head.
¡°Ji Lingchen, you¡¯ve changed. You used to gently ruffle my hair, but now you¡¯re hitting me!¡± Fang Xiaonuanined.
Ji Lingchen looked at the ¡°kitten¡± beside him, who was fuming. ¡°If I could take my heart out without dying, I promise you would see that you, my disobedient little kitten, upy every bit of it.¡±
A certain ¡°kitten¡± was no longer angry. She pouted and said, ¡°You¡¯re saying that I¡¯m disobedient again.¡± She was obedient now!
¡°Which wife would call their own husband ¡®Uncle¡¯?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan knew that she was in the wrong, but she still insisted, ¡°Who asked you to offend me first?¡±
On the way back, Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s mouth never stopped moving. When they got home, Ji Lingchen warned her, ¡°Go back to your room and take a nap. You¡¯re not allowed to visit Xiaowen in the hospital.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan, who had originally nned to go to the hospital said, ¡°Xiaowen is so pitiful. He¡¯s in the hospital all by himself.¡±
¡°He¡¯s reaping what he sowed!¡± Ji Lingchen said. How dare he say that he had problems in the bedroom? If he was not his nephew, he would have beaten him to death!
Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s car keys got confiscated by her husband.
Old Master Ji was especially happy. This way, Xiaonuan could stay at home and y with him!
Because Fang Xiaonuan had taught Old Master Ji how to y games, his friends had all called him an inte-addicted old man.
Ji Lingchen did not attend any social events, nor did he go to the office. Instead, he went straight to Yanyu Corporation, the corporation founded by Liu Siyu¡¯s mother. Thepany¡¯s name was based on her children¡¯s names. He stopped downstairs and waited patiently.
Sure enough, after a while, Liu Siyan came over. He parked his car opposite the Maybach, then got into Ji Lingchen¡¯s car and asked, ¡°Why did you want to see me?¡±
It turned out that while the two sisters were chatting at the Liu residence, the two men had secretly set a time to meet. One sent his wife home, and the other settled his sister. Then, the two met up.
Liu Siyan was also very curious about the rtionship between Ji Lingchen and Liu Siyu, what had happened fifteen years ago, and why there was a child found by the sea.
¡°Where¡¯s the real Liu Siyu?¡± Ji Lingchen asked directly. He did not want to waste any more time.
Liu Siyan turned to look at the man beside him. How did he know that she was really his sister?
¡°Is she dead?¡± Ji Lingchen asked.
Chapter 276 - 276 The Real Liu Siyu
276 The Real Liu Siyu
Liu Siyan did not answer. Instead, he asked, ¡°What is your rtionship with Xiaoyu?¡±
Ji Lingchen looked out of the window and said indifferently, ¡°I¡¯m her older brother.¡±
Liu Siyan¡¯s thoughts were pulled back to that day 15 years ago. A child was crying and hugging his leg. No one was allowed to touch her, except for him. ¡°Brother, carry me. I¡¯m scared!¡±
¡°How did you know?¡±
How could Ji Lingchen be so sure when he had been watching his sister so closely?
¡°Xiaonuan secretly took Xiaoyu and Xiaowen¡¯s hair and submitted them for a DNA test without my knowledge. They are rted, so Liu Siyu is my biological sister, Ji Xiaoyu. There¡¯s a scar on her left arm because she bit herself. She wanted to give herself a scar because she was afraid that I wouldn¡¯t be able to find her.¡±
Everything Ji Lingchen matched up with what happened to his sister. It turned out that he had already confirmed his sister¡¯s identity, but he was in no hurry to tell the truth earlier today. At this point, Liu Siyan had no need to hide it anymore. He had always been afraid that his sister would be taken away, but in the end, he had not been able to stop this. He wanted to take his sister to have the scar removed, but his sister subconsciously resisted. It was as if her subconscious was telling her that it should not be removed. She must have been waiting for her brother to find her.
Liu Siyan said slowly, ¡°My biological sister passed away 15 years ago.¡±
It turned out that the real Liu Siyu had suddenly suffered from brain cancer 15 years ago. In the end, she passed away. At that time, their family was away. Liu Siyu could not walk steadily and almost fell several times. Mr. Liu carried his daughter as they walked, but even when they got home, Liu Siyu would not stop crying andining. Her parents took her to a small clinic nearby which prescribed her some medicine. After taking it, she went home and fell asleep. However, she could not be woken up the next day. Mrs. Liu felt that something was wrong with her daughter and immediately drove her to the hospital in the city. After the results of the examination came out, the doctor hurriedly told the couple to go through the hospitalization procedures and that the child needed to be operated on immediately.
Mr. Liu and his wife were both scared out of their wits. Liu Siyan also looked at her sister, who was lying on the bed, feeling numb. There were always scenes in television series and movies where people¡¯s lives were on the line but they were saved. However, real life was cruel. His sister did not receive a miracle. In the end, her life ended when she was five and a half years old.
Liu Siyan would never forget how his sister looked when she took herst breath. His mother cried so hard that she fainted. His father could not stand. He crumpled on the ground and cried. Liu Siyan leaned against the wall and looked at his sister¡¯s face as the white cloth descended over it. She looked like she was asleep, and her body was still warm. He hoped that a miracle would happen, that his sister would suddenly wake up and run to him, call for him coquettishly, and mor for him to carry her. However, no such miracle happened.
Liu Siyu was gone, and Mrs. Liu was half dead. She began to sleepwalk and talk nonsense, and she slowly lost her grip on reality. The doctor said that if the child arrived at the hospital earlier, they might have been able to save her. However, she had spent the night at home and it was toote.
Mrs. Liu med herself. She regretted taking her daughter to a small clinic for medicine. Then, she walked to the beach in a daze.
¡°My mom had aplete mental breakdown. She went to the beach and just kept walking, straight into the sea. She regarded Xiaoyu as more important than her own life. She could not ept Xiaoyu¡¯s death at all. It was also that day that the girl appeared.¡±
Half of Mrs. Liu¡¯s body was already submerged, and her husband had just found her. He hurriedly rescued her, but Mrs. Liu had lost her will to live and was very lethargic.
Then, Liu Siyan found a little girl by the sea. She looked about the same age as his younger sister, and her face was pale and bloodless. She looked like she was sick.
¡°Mom, Dad, there¡¯s a kid over there!¡±
Mr. Liu saw Ji Xiaoyu lying on the beach. He left his wife in his son¡¯s care and went to see if the child was still alive.
The little girl¡¯s body was cold, and the wound on her arm was swollen from being soaked in seawater. No one knew how long she had been lying there. Mr. Liu checked her breathing and found that it was very weak. This child was very strong.
¡°They had just lost a daughter. Then, they found another child of the same age. My mother firmly believed that she was my sister. Coincidentally, the child also said that her name was Xiaoyu. My mother went crazy and insisted that my sister¡¯s soul was living in this child.¡±
¡°We sent her to the hospital. While she was recuperating, my parents were holding a funeral for my sister. After everything was over, she was discharged. She was young and could not express herself clearly. She might have lost part of her memory. She only knew that her name was Xiaoyu and that her brother woulde to find her. We didn¡¯t know what happened to her. We went to the police station to ask around, but the police weren¡¯t notified that a child went missing.¡±
¡°In the end, my dad wanted to send her to an orphanage. His daughter had just died, and his wife was on the verge of a mental breakdown. He didn¡¯t have the capacity to take care of this child.¡±
Chapter 277 - 277 The Truth About What Happened 15 Years Ago
277 The Truth About What Happened 15 Years Ago
Coincidentally, at that time, Ji Xiaoyu always hugged Liu Siyan and called him ¡°Brother¡±. She even said that she was scared.
Mrs. Liu felt that her daughter¡¯s soul was living in that child¡¯s body. In the end, Mr. Liu could not bear to send her to an orphanage.
¡°Xiaoyu, are you willing to be Liu Siyu?¡± Liu Siyan asked her.
Ji Xiaoyu did not understand what he meant, but the Liu couple understood. He was suggesting that they let this child take the ce of Liu Siyu in their lives.
¡°So, you¡¯re the real brother she¡¯s been looking for,¡± Liu Siyan said.
Ji Lingchen did not manage to find out about these things. This exined why Liu Siyu had never disappeared and why his sister could not be found. This was what happened. After the real Liu Siyu passed away, the Liu family found his sister. However, it was strange. His whole family was looking for his sister, so why didn¡¯t they call the police? Ji Lingchen was puzzled.
The Liu family kept Liu Siyu hidden for a year. During this period, Liu Siyu did not meet many people, not even her grandparents.
When she emerged in public again, everyone said that Liu Siyu had be prettier and whiter than before. The Liu family members only smiled and stayed silent.
With Liu Siyu¡¯spany, Mrs. Liu¡¯s mental state slowly recovered. She often hugged the sleeping Liu Siyu and muttered to herself, ¡°Xiaoyu, I miss you very much. Don¡¯t leave me or I won¡¯t be able to live.¡±
It seemed like the Liu family was happy again, just like they were before. However, Mr. Liu, Mrs. Liu, and Liu Siyan knew that the real Liu Siyu was no longer around.
Liu Siyan was also afraid that his sister would leave. The feeling of never being able to see her again was too unbearable. However, he did not expect that the ¡°brother¡± of the little girl they saved was actually the current king of the business world, Ji Lingchen!
If it was an ordinary family, the Liu family could still fight for her, or even use their power to bury this matter. However, Ji Lingchen¡¯s family was far more powerful.
Liu Siyanughed at himself. As expected, his sister had another family.
¡°How did the young miss of the Ji family get lost?¡±
That day, the two men talked for a long time in the car and roughly recounted what had happened in the past.
After Ji Lingchen fell unconscious, Ji Xiaoyu was taken away. When he woke up, his family was with him, but his sister was long gone.
Ji Xiaoyu fell into the sea. The currents were too strong, and Ji Xiaoyu lost a part of her memory. Then she met the Liu family who had just lost their daughter. She went on to live in Liu Siyu¡¯s ce. At that time, she was still young and with the injuries she sustained, she ultimately had no idea that she was not their biological daughter.
Ji Lingchen had been looking for her for 15 years. Today, he could finally rx. he leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes. 15 years¡¯ worth of shackles had finally been broken.
Liu Siyan asked, ¡°CEO, can I ask you for one thing? Can you not divulge Liu Siyan¡¯s true identity yet? I¡¯m afraid she won¡¯t be able to take it. ¡±
Liu Siyan was also worried that his mother would have another mental breakdown.
Ji Lingchen slowly opened his eyes and looked at Liu Siyan. ¡°The Ji family will definitely acknowledge Xiaoyu.¡±
¡°I understand. My family just needs some time to slowly ept the truth. Please. She¡¯s also a child of the Liu family,¡± Liu Siyan said seriously.
When Ji Lingchen thought about how the Liu family had taken care of his sister for so many years, he agreed. ¡°You have a month at most. This year, I¡¯m taking her back to the Ji family, so she can acknowledge her ancestors and n.¡±
Liu Siyan was very content with that. After thanking him, he got out of the car and left.
Back at the Liu house, Liu Siyan went to Liu Siyu¡¯s bedroom and saw her lying on the bed leisurely, ying games. She spoke through a microphone. ¡°Xiaowen, your feet don¡¯t work, not your hands. Why are you so slow? I¡¯m going to die!¡±
Ji Wen said, ¡°You insisted that I, a patient, y games with you two while I¡¯m still bedridden. You don¡¯t even feel sorry for me. You¡¯re scolding me! I can¡¯t y this game anymore. y on your own. I¡¯m not ying anymore!¡±
Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s voice sounded. ¡°Don¡¯t, Xiaowen. You can leaveter. When my husbandes home, I won¡¯t need you anymore. My husband can y with me.¡±
Liu Siyu said, ¡°Me too, Xiaonuan!¡±
Liu Siyan knocked on the door. ¡°Xiaoyu,¡± he said. ¡°Let¡¯s have a chat after this game.¡±
Liu Siyu said, ¡°Ah? Brother, you¡¯re back. I thought you went to the police station. Wait a moment!¡±
After one more round, the three of them stopped ying.
Liu Siyu sat up and asked, ¡°Brother, what do you want to talk to me about?¡±
Liu Siyan looked at his sister¡¯s curious face and did not know what to say. ¡°It¡¯s fine. Is there anything you want to eat tonight?¡±
Liu Siyu replied, ¡°Didn¡¯t Xiaonuan buy me some spare ribs? You can make a stew with that. I¡¯ll have some and send some to the hospital.¡±
¡°Alright,¡± Liu Siyan said.
Chapter 278 - 278 Killing the One Who Helped You
278 Killing the One Who Helped You
Meanwhile, Ji Lingchen had also reached home.
¡°Hubby, you¡¯re back,¡± Fang Xiaonuan said.
¡°Yeah. Didn¡¯t I tell you to go to sleep before I left? Why are you ying with your phone again?¡±
¡°Dad insisted that I y with him,¡± Fang Xiaonuan replied.
¡°You¡¯re the one who stole my phone,¡± Old Master Ji said angrily.
¡°Dad, are you trying to kill the one who helped you?¡± Fang Xiaonuan started bickering with Old Master Ji.
¡°You started it,¡± Old Master Ji said.
Ji Lingchenughed helplessly. He walked to the living room and pulled his little wife away. ¡°I¡¯m going back to my room to catch up on some sleep!¡±
¡°Alright.¡± Fang Xiaonuan returned the phone to Old Master Ji and even made a face. ¡°Hmph! I¡¯m not going to y with you anymore. I¡¯m going to sleep with my husband. You can y on your own!¡±
¡°I don¡¯t need yourpany either. I¡¯m going to y with my grandson!¡± Old Master Ji said stubbornly.
¡°Master, Young Master Ji Wen is still in the hospital!¡± the butler reminded him.
¡°Get the car ready,¡± Old Master Ji said. ¡°I¡¯m going to the hospital to y games with my grandson.¡±
The butler was speechless.
¡
Liu Siyu¡¯s ankle had finally recovered. She had spent thest few days panicking.
That day, she had said that her feet were cold, and Ji Lingchen had said that he wanted to give her a foot warmer. She had thought that he was joking, but he really did. Then, all kinds of supplements and gifts came one after another.
At school, Ji Lingchen came to pick up Fang Xiaonuan, but he offered to take her out for a meal. She rejected him on the spot and ran off to find her brother.
The scariest thing was that Ji Lingchen had returned from a business trip with a gift for Fang Xiaonuan. This was normal, but why did he bring one for her too?
Liu Siyu was so scared that she threw the gift away.
¡°That diamond you just threw away cost 10 million,¡± Fang Xiaonuan said calmly.
Liu Siyu quietly picked it up. ¡°Xiaonuan,¡± she said. ¡°Why did your husband do that?¡±
¡°It¡¯s fine. That¡¯s just how he is,¡± Fang Xiaonuan replied.
Liu Siyu said, ¡°Xiaonuan, you can¡¯t just tolerate him like this. Think about it. He¡¯s so good to me. You and I are like sisters. I can¡¯t ept this. Imagine if he does this for other women. Did you forget that gold diggers exist? Now that Ji Lingchen has slept with you, will he court another woman? This kind of scumbag really deserves to die!¡±
Liu Siyu stood up for her friend, then stuffed the diamond into Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s hands. ¡°Take this back and throw it at his face. Then, tell him that my rtionship with my best friend is as strong as gold and that it¡¯s something he can¡¯t destroy!¡±
¡°And you, Fang Xiaonuan, you have to start acting like his wife. If he dares to mess around with other women, let him know that you¡¯ll beat him to death!¡±
Fang Xiaonuan had been tormented by her husband for the entire night and waspletely lethargic. She was sprawled on the table and closed her eyes as she listened to Liu Siyu.
She pushed the diamond back. ¡°Just take it. We¡¯re more than best friends. We¡¯ll be a family sooner orter. My husband is great. He won¡¯t go out and mess around. He¡¯s just very good to you.¡±
Liu Siyu scoffed. ¡°Why? Is he sick in the head? He should be good to you. Why would he be good to me?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan forced her eyes open and looked at Liu Siyu, thinking, ¡®You¡¯re his sister.¡¯
¡°Don¡¯t disturb me, I¡¯m sleepy!¡± she said. Fang Xiaonuan was exhausted by the demands of her marriage, and she was catching up on sleep.
Fang Xiaonuan had a beautiful dream. In the dream, she stepped on Ji Lingchen, then jumped around on his body. She stepped on him until he cried out in pain. It was really too satisfying!
Ji Lingchen had asked Secretary Song to prepare two sets of gifts.
Secretary Song said, ¡°CEO Ji, pardon me for asking, but did you prepare the present for madam and Ms. Liu? Or did you deliberately buy a gift for Ms. Liu and bring one for Madam just to shut her up?¡±
¡°What do you mean?¡±
Secretary Song said, ¡°If it¡¯s the former, I¡¯ll have to advise you, CEO Ji. One gift is very precious. Two gifts are cheaper. If there¡¯s only one present, Madam will be very happy, but if she receives one of the two gifts, Madam¡¯s happiness will be halved.¡±
¡°Also, Madam might have misunderstood. She might have thought you were giving her a gift just so she wouldn¡¯tin.¡±
¡°If it¡¯s thetter, that means there¡¯s a problem with your marriage, CEO Ji.¡±
¡°Are you trying to say that Xiaonuan isn¡¯t that happy to receive her gift?¡±
Secretary Song nodded. ¡°All women hope that they are unique in their husbands ¡®hearts. No matter who it is, the wife¡¯s position is the most important. Even if Madam knows about Ms. Liu¡¯s identity, she will definitely feel disappointed.¡±
¡°I¡¯m telling you now because I understand how you feel. However, in the long run, if this bes a habit, Madam will feel more and more disappointed. This may be a source of conflict in your marriage, and your rtionship will be affected.¡±
Chapter 279 - 279 CEO Ji Realizes His Mistake
279 CEO Ji Realizes His Mistake
Ji Lingchen thought about it carefully. These days, he had given his little wife gifts, but she only nced at them before putting them back into the box.
Before this, whenever she received a gift from him, she would be so happy that she would jump into his arms like a little rabbit.
She did not seem to be as happy thest few times, and she had not worn any of them yet.
Secretary Song saw that her message had been conveyed, so she said, ¡°CEO Ji, I¡¯ll take my leave first. Call me if you need anything.¡±
!!
Ji Lingchen nodded. After Secretary Song left, he turned on his phone and looked at his recent chat history with his little wife.
[ Hubby, the Liu family hasn¡¯t told Xiaoyu about her identity yet. Do you want me to tell her? ]
Fang Xiaonuan replied, [ Xiaoyu¡¯s ankle has recovered. Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll take good care of her in school. ]
[ Hubby, don¡¯t be so enthusiastic. Xiaoyu is scared. You can treat her well when she learns who she is! You¡¯re making the Liu family very nervous. Xiaowen might even suspect that you have ulterior motives. ]
¡
After Ji Lingchen finished reading the chat history, he was no longer in the mood to work.
During this period of time, his little wife¡¯s understanding and sensibility made his heart ache. He got up, picked up his car keys, and left the office.
Seeing that the CEO had left, Assistant Liu went to chat with Secretary Song. ¡°Look, CEO Ji is skipping work again. Last time, his wife came to look for him and he skipped work. Now, he¡¯s skipping work even when she¡¯s not here. He¡¯s skipping work more and more frequently. Will he even abandon thepany in the future?¡±
Secretary Song shook her head. ¡°He won¡¯t. He spent tens of millions on a gift for madam. If he abandons thepany, he won¡¯t be able to afford to buy her gifts like that anymore.¡±
¡°That¡¯s true. It seems like I¡¯m overthinking it,¡± Assistant Liu said.
Jing University
The moment school ended, Fang Xiaonuan saw her husband at the door. He had made an excuse about wanting to pick her up but he was actually visiting his sister.
¡°Hubby, you¡¯re here.¡± Fang Xiaonuan pulled Liu Siyu over and said, ¡°Since you¡¯re here, let¡¯s send Xiaoyu hometer.¡±
Liu Siyu¡¯s eyes were wide. Was her friend crazy?
Ji Wen also looked at Fang Xiaonuan as if she was a lunatic. Was there something wrong with her brain?
Ji Lingchen also saw Liu Siyan, who hade to pick up Liu Siyu.
¡°Xiaoyu, someone else is here to pick you up. I¡¯m here to pick you up.¡±
¡°Huh?¡± Fang Xiaonuan was puzzled.
Ji Lingchen pulled his little wife into his arms, then said to Ji Wen, ¡°Can you drive home by yourself?¡±
¡°No problem.¡± Ji Wen nodded.
After Liu Siyu¡¯s ankle recovered, Ji Wen was discharged from the hospital.
Ji Lingchen let Ji Wen drive home by himself, and he took his little wife to Shuxiang Garden.
Fang Xiaonuan was overwhelmed by the unexpected turn of events. Her husband usually treated her very well, but his actions today had surprised her.
When they were eating, she went straight to the point and said, ¡°Hubby, what do you want me to do for you? Just tell me.¡±
Ji Lingchen paused, his chopsticks hovering in the air. Did his little wife think that he was being nice to her because he had a request for her?
He put down his chopsticks and leaned back in his chair. He asked seriously, ¡°Xiaonuan, if I give you and Xiaoyu the same gift, would you mind?¡±
Hearing this, Fang Xiaonuan also put down her chopsticks and said, ¡°From the perspective of your wife, I definitely mind. But I understand how you feel, so I¡¯m a little bothered but not angry.¡±
¡°If it bothers you, why didn¡¯t you say something?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan continued, ¡°If I tell you that I¡¯m not happy, and that you¡¯re only allowed to give me gifts in the future, I¡¯ll be too petty. Moreover, if I said that, you would think that I¡¯m insensible. Why would I do that? We worked hard to get where we are. I don¡¯t want to quarrel or give you the silent treatment over something so small.¡±
Ji Lingchen looked at his little wife, who looked a little aggrieved. He had not noticed how his wife had been feeling recently.
¡°Xiaonuan,¡± he said sincerely, ¡°I¡¯m sorry. I made a mistake.¡±
Hearing this, Fang Xiaonuan pouted. ¡°I can understand your intentions.¡± Fortunately, her husband¡¯s sister was her best friend. That made it more eptable to her.
Ji Lingchen said, ¡°One gift is precious, but two is cheap. Thank God Secretary Song reminded me of this. Otherwise, I wouldn¡¯t have realized my mistake.¡±
He got up and sat beside his wife, hugging her. ¡°In the future, just tell me if you feel ufortable. It¡¯s my first time being a husband, and sometimes, I don¡¯t know when I¡¯ve made a mistake. If you don¡¯t give me feedback, you won¡¯t be telling me the truth.¡±
At this moment, Fang Xiaonuan was as soft as an obedient kitten. ¡°I¡¯m afraid you¡¯ll be unhappy if I say too much.¡±
Ji Lingchen was taken aback by his wife¡¯s words. Could it be that she had a lot of issues to bring up with him?
¡°Do you have any other opinions about me?¡±
Chapter 280 - 280 Not Enough Times
280 Not Enough Times
Fang Xiaonuan pursed her lips and said softly, ¡°Can we make love less often?¡±
¡°No!¡± Ji Lingchen replied. He could correct the other problems, but not this!
Fang Xiaonuan pursed her lips and said, ¡°Oh.¡± She knew that her husband would not agree to that.
¡°Then don¡¯t hug me to sleep. I have a pillow, so I don¡¯t need your arm.¡±
!!
¡°No.¡± Ji Lingchen refused again. ¡°You can¡¯t use your pillow. You can prevent cervical spondylosis by using my arm as your pillow.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan put forward her third request, ¡°Then, can you call me ¡®kitten¡¯ behind my back? Thest time I went to visit my parents, theyughed at us.¡±
¡°No, that¡¯s my pet name for you,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
Fang Xiaonuan brought up the fourth request, ¡°Then, don¡¯t pick me up from school in the future. I¡¯ll drive home myself.¡±
Ji Lingchen said, ¡°No, it¡¯s almost the new year. There are so many cars. I¡¯m worried that it¡¯ll be too dangerous for you.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan was speechless. The new year? It wasn¡¯t even winter break yet.
She raised four requests, all of which were rejected by her husband. Did her husband just say those touching words for fun?
That night, Fang Xiaonuan paid a terrible price for being angry with her husband.
The next morning, she woke up and shouted in the bedroom, ¡°Ji Lingchen! Do you want me to give birth to your child now?¡±
¡°If we¡¯re trying to have a child, we¡¯d need to do it a lot more times. This wouldn¡¯t be enough,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
Fang Xiaonuan was at a loss for words.
For a very long period of time, Fang Xiaonuan only wore high-cored clothes. every day in ss, she would slump on the table and fall asleep. At night, she was forced to stay awake until the wee hours of the morning, and every morning, she would feel dizzy. The moment she saw her husband, she wanted to run away.
Finally, one day, Fang Xiaonuan managed to escape by going to her family¡¯s house.
Ji Lingchen chased after her as soon as he found out. Then, in the middle of the night, he took his little wife out of bed and brought her home.
Of course, being pampered by her husband was not without its benefits.
For example, after her husband was satisfied, she could make all kinds of requests, and he would not reject them.
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°Hubby, I¡¯ve taken a fancy to a bag. There¡¯s only three of these in the entire world.¡±
The next day, the bag was lying quietly on Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s dressing table.
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°Hubby, I have my eyes on a gown. However, I don¡¯t want to wear it. I just want to have it.¡±
Then, she found the gown hanging in her dressing room.
¡°Hubby, I¡¯d like us to have matching couple¡¯s watches.¡±
The next day, the two of them put on the couple¡¯s watches.
That night, Fang Xiaonuan became her husband¡¯s ¡°little midnight snack¡± again. After it was over, she was calcting something in her head. Then, she made her request. ¡°Hubby, my high school ssmate who has been abroad ising back this weekend. We¡¯re going to wee her home. Xiaowen and Xiaoyu areing too.¡±
¡°You¡¯re not allowed to drink. Send me your location when you¡¯re there, and I¡¯ll pick you up after you¡¯re done.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan finally had a brief moment of freedom. When she arrived at school, she excitedly said to her two good friends, ¡°My husband finally agreed to let me go to the party!¡±
Liu Siyu said, ¡°Why do you have so little freedom since you got married? You even need your husband¡¯s permission to go to a party.¡±
Of course, Fang Xiaonuan did not want it to be like that, but she was married. There were so many men and women at the party, so she had to let her husband know no matter what.
¡°Did your brother say yes?¡±
Liu Siyu said, ¡°Of course. My brother said I can¡¯t drink. I¡¯ll send him the location when I get there. He¡¯ll drive to pick me up after the party.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°Are all men¡¯s brains the same? Why did they all say the same thing? My husband said the same thing!¡±
Then, the two of them looked at Ji Wen.
¡°Oh, so you two are treating me as a man now?¡± Ji Wen asked.
Upon hearing this, the two of them turned away at the same time. ¡°That¡¯s true. There¡¯s no use asking him!¡±
Ji Wen was speechless.
Ji Lingchen probably knew how much he was bothering his wife, so he paid more attention to her recently. Other than going to work, he would only asionally go out to socialize. After that, he would also help her practice her driving. In fact, she just went to pick him up, showing up in front of everyone as his wife.
Liu Siyu finally stopped calling Ji Lingchen a jerk. However, every time she thought about the past, she would feel that there was something wrong with her sister¡¯s tastes. Ji Lingchen was too much of a scumbag! Sometimes, on the way home, she wouldin to Liu Siyan, and Liu Siyan would enjoy her rant.
Mr. Liu also met up with Ji Lingchen in private. As a father, he had to have a good talk with him about his daughter.
After the two finished their conversation, Ji Lingchen could feel Mr. Liu¡¯s reluctance to part with his daughter.
Chapter 281 - 281 The Class Reunion
281 The ss Reunion
Ji Lingchen personally walked Mr. Liu to the door. ¡°Mr. Liu, thank you for loving my sister for all these years.¡±
Mr. Liu sighed. He did not have much time left with his daughter.
In the blink of an eye, it was the weekend.
Fang Xiaonuan had dressed up like an emperor penguin.
Ji Wen saw this and said, ¡°You¡¯re too tired from walking, so you¡¯re nning to roll to the party, right?¡±
As expected, Ji Wen was beaten up.
After the beating, Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°I¡¯m already wearing more than enough, but your little uncle insisted that I put on more. I know where he¡¯sing from. He just wants me to look as ugly as possible. That way, no one will like me, and he won¡¯t have to worry.¡±
Ji Lingchen, who was passing by, did not refute this. Only he could appreciate his wife¡¯s beauty. In front of outsiders, especially in front of people of the same age and opposite sex, the uglier she dressed, the better. Of course, no matter how ugly Fang Xiaonuan was, it did not stop him from pulling her into the cloakroom and bullying her.
Ji Wen said, ¡°That¡¯s not right. If my uncle announced that you¡¯re his wife, would anyone dare to seduce you? They won¡¯t if they value their lives!¡±
Ji Lingchen was in the kitchen pouring water when he heard this. He suddenly felt that his nephew was notpletely useless. This was a good idea! His identity was enough to intimidate those people.
After pouring the water, he walked over and handed the cup to his little wife. ¡°Here, drink some water.¡±
The moment Fang Xiaonuan thought of what her husband had done to her in the cloakroom, she got angry, so she turned her head away arrogantly. ¡°Hmph! I¡¯m not drinking it!¡±
¡°I¡¯ll take you thereter,¡± Ji Lingchen said. At the same time, he could also assert himself as her husband.
Fang Xiaonuan huffed and said, ¡°No! That¡¯s not happening. That¡¯s not all. I¡¯ll also hook up with a handsome boy. I¡¯ll let the handsome boy send me home and then kiss and hug me in front of you. I¡¯ll make you so angry!¡±
Ji Lingchen knew it was a lie, but he was still furious. He kept his smile. ¡®Very good!¡¯
His little wife was about to go to her ssmate¡¯s gathering, so Ji Lingchen did not bully her immediately. The night was long anyway, so he had plenty of time tonight!
Fang Xiaonuan and Ji Wen left in the same car.
¡°Aunt,¡± Ji Wen said before he started driving, ¡°I¡¯ll be drinking today. Don¡¯t forget to bring me along when your husbandes to pick you up.¡±
¡°Why are you calling me aunt? Call me big sister!¡± Fang Xiaonuan had deliberately let her husband hear Ji Wen call her ¡®sister¡¯. After seeing her husband¡¯s unhappy face, Fang Xiaonuan got into the car and left happily.
The party was held on the roof of a hotel, which had many entertainment facilities, an open-air pool, and a gym. However, it was cold so no one went swimming. Everyone was sitting around on the sofas, and the table was filled with all kinds of wine.
At the hotel entrance, Fang Xiaonuan and Ji Wen waited in the car for Liu Siyu to arrive before going upstairs together.
Ji Wen was very friendly with the other boys. When he went upstairs, he said, ¡°I¡¯ll have a drinking contest with themter. Don¡¯t drink, you two.¡±
¡°Don¡¯t worry, your uncle doesn¡¯t allow me to drink,¡± Fang Xiaonuan replied.
¡°I¡¯ve only drunk with you two, ¡± Liu Siyu said. ¡°I don¡¯t drink with anyone else.¡±
Ji Wen nodded. ¡°Yes, if someone askster, just say that you¡¯re allergic to alcohol and can¡¯t drink it. Don¡¯t talk to them. If anyone urges you to drink, just call me. Yue Qi is here tonight too. That guy pursued Siyu for three years and is not a good person. Keep your guard up. Don¡¯t drink anything he gives you.¡±
Liu Siyu and Fang Xiaonuan both agreed.
The elevator reached the top floor, and Ji Wen walked out first.
When someone saw him, he immediately stood up with a ss of wine and greeted him, ¡± Ah, Young Master Ji is here! Everyone, let¡¯s give him a warm wee!¡±
Ji Wen took a ss from him and they clinked sses. He took a sip and said, ¡°You guys are early.¡±
Following that, someone tried to pass wine to Fang Xiaonuan and Liu Siyu, but the two of them waved dismissively and did not take it. ¡°Let¡¯s just have some drinks.¡±
¡°You can drink in the hall. This can hasn¡¯t been opened yet!¡± the person who handed the wine said.
Ji Wen took the wine and turned to look at the two girls. ¡°Girls, don¡¯t drink anymore. If we drink too muchter, who¡¯s going to call a taxi for us?¡±
Some people were unwilling to give up and kept trying to pass wine to Fang Xiaonuan. ¡°Beautiful Fang Xiaonuan, you¡¯ve wrapped yourself up so tightly today. You¡¯re so cute. Once you¡¯ve had enough drinks, I¡¯ll take you away tonight.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°If you knew that my husband was Ji Lingchen, would you still dare to speak so arrogantly?¡±
¡°I¡¯m not drinking anymore. I¡¯m allergic to alcohol.¡±
After a while, another boy handed Liu Siyu some wine. ¡°I can¡¯t focus on Fang Xiaonuan alone. In my heart, Siyu, you¡¯re the most beautiful. Siyu, drink some. It¡¯s not very strong. If you drink too much, I¡¯ll send you home.¡±
Liu Siyu looked at the wine, but she did not take it. She said lightly, ¡°Thank you. I¡¯m allergic to it too.¡±
Chapter 282 - 282 Already Married
282 Already Married
Ji Wen was with Yue Qi, the guy who had been pursuing Liu Siyu for three years. He said, ¡°Don¡¯t bother about the girls. Let¡¯s go and drink.¡±
After they got away from them, Fang Xiaonuan and Liu Siyu looked at each other. ¡°My nephew is very protective of us.¡±
Liu Siyu did not find anything wrong with that. She nodded and said, ¡°Yes, that¡¯s true.¡±
The two of them looked around and saw a few familiar girls not far away.
The girls spotted them to and started waving at them. ¡°Xiaonuan, Xiaoyu, over here.¡±
The two of them walked over and saw their ssmates who had just returned from abroad. Fang Xiaonuan asked about many things that had happened overseas because her brother, Fang Hang, had gone to study there too. Her parents had said that Fang Hang wanted to return to his country and did not want to continue studying at an overseas university. However, her parents wanted him to finish college first. Thepetition in the National College Entrance Examination was too intense, and Mr. Fang also wanted to expand his business into overseas markets.
One of the people who had stopped people from passing them wine was someone who took a fancy to Fang Xiaonuan.
Fang Xiaonuan was concerned about her brother, so she asked a few more questions. She wanted to help him get some information in advance.
Ji Wen was sitting among the boys. Someone teased him, ¡°These two beauties have been by your side for so many years. Which one do you like?¡±
Ji Wen said, ¡°Of the two of them, one has a sharp tongue and the other is ruthless. How would I dare to choose them? ¡±
¡°Ji Wen, can you help me score one of them?¡± one of the boys said.
Before the guy could say who he wanted to establish a connection with, he was rejected by Ji Wen.
Ji Wen said, ¡°Liu Siyu¡¯s older brother is a police officer. He¡¯s already after several people in our school. Her brother has even found out where one of her admirers lives. As for Fang Xiaonuan, she¡¯s already taken. She¡¯s someone you can¡¯t afford to offend.¡±
Ji Wen understood that these people were not only interested in their appearance, but also in their status. Liu Siyu¡¯s father held an important position and had great power. Her brother had a good future and would definitely be promoted in the future.
Many of the businessmen in the family wanted to marry into the Liu family. Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s family was in the business world, and they were doing well.
Someone secretly asked Ji Wen, ¡°You¡¯re so close to Fang Xiaonuan, is she married?¡±
After Fang Xiaonuan got married, she posted on her social media ounts, and that made people¡¯s imaginations run wild. She had also shown off some gifts and posted some photos of dates, so many people had privately discussed that she was definitely in love.
Moreover, some said that the Fang and Ji families had an arranged marriage, but Fang Xiaonuan had never made it public to her circle of friends. Everyone was confused. Before the three of them had arrived, they had already discussed whether Fang Xiaonuan was engaged. Coupled with what Ji Wen had just said, the person they could not afford to offend was¡
Ji Wen looked at Fang Xiaonuan, who was among the girls. ¡°I¡¯ll let her tell you herself.¡±
Some of the girls noticed the ring on Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s ring finger. Everyone exchanged nces, and someone asked, ¡°Xiaonuan, are you in a rtionship?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan showed off the ring on her finger. ¡°I¡¯m already married.¡±
¡°What? You¡¯re married? Is the ¡®hubby¡¯ you posted on your moments real?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan replied, ¡°Do you think I¡¯de up with a fake one to trick you guys?¡±
Everyone was shocked. Their ssmate had actually gotten married!
Everyone looked at Fang Xiaonuan in shock, not knowing what to say.
¡°Xiaonuan, why didn¡¯t you inform us that you were getting married? When did you get married? Who¡¯s your husband?¡± One of the students asked three questions in a row.
Fang Xiaonuan smiled. ¡°We got married in a hurry. During the summer break. He¡¯ll being over to pick me up tonight. You¡¯ll know who he is then.¡±
She deliberately did not say it directly. Otherwise, people would keep asking her about her husband, and she would not be able to have peace.
There were also other girls who refused to give up and continued to ask Fang Xiaonuan about her husband. Fang Xiaonuan shook her head and refused to answer any of them.
Being Ji Lingchen¡¯s wife would definitely get too much attention. All she wanted to do was to attend the ss reunion.
Someone asked Liu Siyu for more information. Liu Siyu nced at the stupid person in front of her. Why did this person think that she would betray her best friend?
Not far away, two boys stood behind a green nt, staring straight at the girls. One of them was Yue Qi, who Ji Wen looked down on the most.
Yue Qi grabbed a can of beer and drank with the other boy as they admired Liu Siyu.
¡°I really want to bully her. My heart skipped a beat the first time I saw her.¡± Yue Qi stared at Liu Siyu¡¯s face and fantasized. ¡°If only I could kiss her, torture her, and push her onto the bed.¡±
He looked at the girls in the crowd and then at the swimming pool in the middle of the top floor. Everyone would definitely go swimming in the summer, but it was too cold now, so the swimming pool was just for show.
¡°Isn¡¯t kissing her the easy part? ¡± The boy beside himughed lecherously. ¡°She¡¯s an innocent little girl. With a little trick, she¡¯ll obediently climb into your bed, Young Master Yue.¡±
Chapter 283 - 283 Drinking Competition
283 Drinking Competition
¡°Do you have a good idea?¡± Yue Qi asked with great interest.
¡°We¡¯lle up with a great way to help you solve this problem!¡± another boy said.
The two of them smiled at each other and clinked their drinks.
In Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s ss, there were usually no boys who would go and provoke her, because they had heard many stories of her hitting people. Even Ji Wen had been beaten up three times, and two had been sent to the hospital. If he wanted to pursue Fang Xiaonuan, he had to be able to beat her. Otherwise, if she was unhappy one day, she would hit him and send him to the hospital. Therefore, if he wanted to woo Fang Xiaonuan, he had to be able to beat her!
!!
Ji Wen had said long ago that they would definitely participate in a drinking contest. They had just done one round and there was no clear winner yet. They were ready to try again.
¡°It was a draw just now. This time, let¡¯s just drink a bottle of beer. One round costs 100000 yuan. Do you dare?¡± One of the boys pointed at Ji Wen.
Ji Wen smiled and ced an empty can on the table. He felt that everyone was just a student, so he said, ¡°100000 is too much. It¡¯s just a ss reunion. 10000 yuan per round is enough. There¡¯s no need to y for so much.¡±
When the other men heard this, they thought that Ji Wen was afraid, so they sarcastically said, ¡°Young Master Ji, it¡¯s not that you can¡¯t afford to lose, right? If you don¡¯t have money, you can bet the two beauties beside you so that we can have a chance with them. Hahaha!¡±
The people around them made fun of Fang Xiaonuan and Liu Siyu, but to Ji Wen, they were insulting his best friends!
Ji Wen, who was stillughing just now, immediately became gloomy. His eyes were filled with anger as he said, ¡°You think I can¡¯t afford to lose? If you really want to y for so much, then let¡¯s bet five million. Whoever falls over first loses. Do you dare?¡±
He smiled and nced at the students around him, locking eyes on the boy who had just made fun of his two friends.
The man¡¯s expression froze. ¡°Five million? This much?¡± He dared to y 100000 yuan per round, but if it was 5 million yuan per round, he would have to pay 5 million yuan for every round he lost. That would be too great of a loss. Ji Wen did not seem to be joking.
¡°y! Why not? It¡¯s so exciting!¡± Yue Qi suddenly walked over and interjected. He even patted the boy who had been provoked by Ji Wen and said, ¡°Zhang Lian, this is such a fun game, you have to do it!¡±
Zhang Lian¡¯s expression turned sour. ¡°Young Master Yue, I¡¡±
Yue Qi did not give him a chance to speak at all and said, ¡°We don¡¯t get together that often, so we must have fun. How about this, if you lose, I¡¯ll pay the five million for you. How about that?¡±
¡°Yo! Young Master Yue is so generous. As expected, Young Master Yue¡¯s family is rich!¡± Some of the studentsplimented him.
¡°Zhang Lian, just go ahead and y. Young Master Yue has already said that he will pay for you. If you win, the money will be yours. Why are you still hesitating?¡±
Yue Qi patted Zhang Lian¡¯s shoulder. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. The students are watching. If you lose, I¡¯ll definitely help you pay.¡±
Ji Wen nced at Yue Qi, who was up to no good, and then turned to look at his two good friends some distance away. He felt a little uneasy. ¡°Alright, since you want to y, y to your heart¡¯s content! Five million per round. Here you go. Serve me some beer!¡±
Ji Wen took out his bank card and ced it on the table. Yue Qi also took out a card and ced it on the table. The two of them were alreadypeting in secret.
After a while, all the bottles of beer on the table were cleared, and the waiter brought in more bottled beer.
All the drinks were opened by the waiter. The girls not far away saw the scene and eximed, ¡°Waa! Ji Wen is going to have a drinking contest with Zhang Lian. Each round is worth five million. Everyone, let¡¯s go and take a look. They¡¯re ying with too much money!¡±
Fang Xiaonuan and Liu Siyu looked at each other. The two of them stood up at the same time and walked over quickly.
Ji Wen and Zhang Lian were still drinking non-stop. Ji Wen had even taken off his coat and thrown it on the sofa. He was only wearing a coffee-colored shirt, and he had a bottle of beer to his lips.
Zhang Lian did not show any weakness and also drank from the bottle. He nced at Ji Wen from the corner of his eye, clearlypeting with him.
Ji Wen was obviously faster. After he finished one bottle, he quickly picked up another. The onlooking male and female students were pping and cheering for the two boys.
However, only Fang Xiaonuan and Liu Siyu were upset. Their hearts ached for Ji Wen.
Fang Xiaonuan tugged at a ssmate beside her and asked, ¡°If it¡¯s a drinking contest, then it¡¯s a drinking contest. Why do they have to y for five million a round?¡±
The student said, ¡°Ji Wen set the bet at five million all on his own. Zhang Lian said at the beginning that if Ji Wen couldn¡¯t afford it, he could bet you or Siyu. In the end, he directly said he wanted to y five million.¡±
Chapter 284 - 284 A Flash of Memory
284 A sh of Memory
¡°Can Zhang Lian afford to y for so much?¡± Liu Siyu asked.
¡°It was Yue Qi who suddenly said that if Zhang Lian lost, he would pay the five million for him, and if he won, he could keep it for himself. That¡¯s why he agreed.¡±
Hearing this, Fang Xiaonuan finally understood why Ji Wen wanted to y such a big game. Using women as bargaining chips was clearly as an insult targeted at the two of them. Ji Wen was angry, so he proposed to y five million per round.
¡°Zhang Lian is courting death!¡± Liu Siyu scolded.
After that, she looked at Yue Qi, who was shouting the loudest, and said, ¡°Xiaonuan, can you help me beat this guy to death?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan took a look at the current situation. Ji Wen had already finished six bottles of beer.
She tried to keep calm and said to Siyu, ¡°Xiaoyu, tell the waiter to hurry up and serve some food as soon as possible.¡±
Liu Siyu turned around and walked out of the crowd. If the dishes were served, the drinking session might halt.
Fang Xiaonuan looked worriedly at Ji Wen, who was drinking non-stop. The beer in the bottle was diminishing at a speed that could be seen with the naked eye.
When Liu Siyu went to call for someone, Yue Qi and another person exchanged a look. The two nodded slightly, as if they had reached some kind of consensus.
Liu Siyu was followed by a male student. Just as everyone was gathering to watch the show, a ¡°plop¡± sound was heard not far away.
¡°Not good!¡± someone suddenly shouted. ¡°Siyu fell into the water!¡±
Fang Xiaonuan hurriedly turned to look in the direction of the swimming pool.
Liu Siyu was fully clothed and struggling in the water. She wanted to call for help, but the icy cold water gushed into her mouth and nostrils the moment she opened her mouth. She could not open her eyes, so she could only close her eyes and reach out to feel around. However, she could not stand steadily, nor could she grab onto anything. She wanted to call for Fang Xiaonuan, but a memory suddenly appeared in her mind. ¡°Brother,¡± she sobbed. ¡°I¡¯m scared. Don¡¯t fall asleep.¡±
¡°Don¡¯t cry, Xiaoyu. I will protect you.¡± A boy covered in blood was hugging her tightly.
Her body was covered in blood, and the boy looked a little like Ji Lingchen.
Liu Siyu shook her head. The boundless sea appeared in her mind again, and she cried in despair while floating on the sea¡¯s surface. ¡°Brother, please save me. I¡¯m so scared.¡±
Her arm started to hurt, and she cried.
¡°Xiaowen, Xiaoyu is drowning!¡± Fang Xiaonuan shouted. After she shouted, she ran to the pool and took off her coat.
Ji Wen had already drunk a lot, and his entire face was red. When he heard Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s words, he choked and began to cough violently. He turned his head and saw the girl who had fallen into the water. He staggered up and ran over, pushing Fang Xiaonuan away just as she was about to jump into the pool. He plunged into the cold water.
He saw Liu Siyu struggling in the water and immediately swam over. He held Liu Siyu up, letting her head surface.
Yue Qi did not even have the time to be the hero. Ji Wen beat him to it.
Ji Wen was not wearing a coat because of the drinkingpetition. He had jumped into the pool immediately without even considering how much he had just drunk.
After Liu Siyu¡¯s head came out of the water, she could finally breathe. She kept coughing, and Ji Wen moved her to the side of the pool.
Fang Xiaonuan knelt on the ground and pulled the drenched Liu Siyu up. She quickly draped the cotton-padded jacket she had just taken off over Liu Siyu¡¯s body, then reached out to pull Ji Wen to the side of the pool. The moment her hand touched the water, it turned cold. She subconsciously wanted to withdraw her hand. It was easy to imagine how cold the two of them were.
After Liu Siyu recovered, she also leaned down to pull Ji Wen up.
The others stopped drinking and gathered around.
After pulling Ji Wen up, Fang Xiaonuan looked at the two of them worriedly.
Ji Wen¡¯s teeth were chattering as he asked, ¡°Did you drink too much? You don¡¯t even know how to swim, so why did you jump into the pool?¡±
Liu Siyu turned around and red at Yue Qi¡¯s friend. She asked angrily, ¡°Li Shu, why did you push me just now?¡±
Li Shu also did not expect that Ji Wen would end up the hero here. He was already so drunk that he could not walk steadily. Yue Qi was even slower than him and he was not drunk. He looked at Yue Qi, his face full of disappointment. Such a good opportunity, but it was gone just like that.
Yue Qi was also very angry. He had paid five million yuan for Zhang Lian topete with Ji Wen so that his n would go smoothly. In the end, Ji Wen still saved Liu Siyu.
Fang Xiaonuan followed Li Shu¡¯s gaze and saw Yue Qi in the crowd. Yue Qi was looking at Ji Wen with hatred. She clenched her fists tightly, unable to suppress the violent anger raging through her. She stood up and walked in front of Li Shu. She punched him in the face, then kicked him in the calf. Then, she throw him into the cold pool.
Chapter 285 - 285 A Shocking Relationship
285 A Shocking Rtionship
Fang Xiaonuan did not stop there. She turned around and strode over to Yue Qi. Without waiting for him to react, she jumped up and grabbed his hair, punching him in the stomach with all her might a few times. Then, she threw him in the pool too. She wanted these two b*stards to experience what it was like to be soaked in ice water!
After doing all this, she gritted her teeth and pointed at the two people in the pool. She warned, ¡°You two, just wait!¡± After that, she took Ji Wen and Liu Siyu to the hotel downstairs to change their clothes and take a hot bath.
It was supposed to be a good weing banquet and a ss reunion, but after this incident, everyone lost the mood to hang out and quickly followed them downstairs to see how their ssmates were doing.
Ji Wen and Liu Siyu each got a room. Fang Xiaonuan said to Ji Wen, ¡°You drank too much, you can¡¯t take a bath. Take a hot shower and get into bed. Give me the room card, I¡¯lle to see you in a while.¡±
!!
After that, she carried her trembling best friend, who was dripping with cold water, to the room next door. After entering the room, she quickly helped Liu Siyu take off her wet clothes.
¡°Yue Qi and Li Shu are really the f*cking same. When my brotherester, I¡¯ll ask my brother and mother to investigate their family!¡± Liu Siyu cursed them as she took off her clothes.
However, Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s brows were tightly furrowed. Considering that an incident like that happened, she had to get her husband to make a trip over.
After she helped Liu Siyu take off her clothes, she saw the bite marks on her arm.
Fang Xiaonuan pulled on her arm and looked at the scar her husband had mentioned seriously. ¡°Xiaoyu, didn¡¯t you get the scar removed at the hospital?¡±
Liu Siyu shook her head, pulled her arm back, and went into the bathtub. She turned on the tap to get warm water. Her body was too cold, and the slightly warm water was like needles on her skin. It hurt.
Fang Xiaonuan soaked a towel in hot water and draped it over Liu Siyu¡¯s back.
Liu Siyu said, ¡°Xiaonuan, I¡¯ll give you my brother¡¯s number. Call him right now. Ask him toe over and bring me clothes.¡±
¡°Alright,¡± she said. Fang Xiaonuan took out her phone and dialed the number Liu Siyu had given her. After exining the situation briefly, she also called her husband.
In the hotel room, after Ji Wen had taken a hot shower, he walked out of the room in a bathrobe and just happened to see Yue Qi and Li Shu, who were also wearing bathrobes. The two should have already taken a shower. They were now openly smoking in the hotel lobby.
Ji Wen¡¯s anger rose in an instant. He rushed over, picked up the ashtray on the table, and grabbed Yue Qi¡¯s cor. He was about to hit him.
¡°Ji Wen, don¡¯t be rash. Yue Qi didn¡¯t push Siyu!¡±
¡°Yes, impulsiveness is the devil!¡±
¡°Hurry up and separate the two of them. This is a positive event. Let¡¯s not spoil it!¡±
¡
The surrounding students all gathered around to stop the fight, pulling Ji Wen and Yue Qi apart, but no matter what, they could not push Ji Wen¡¯s hand away. A sudden shout stopped Ji Wen.
¡°Stop!¡± It was Ji Lingchen, who hade to deliver the clothes. He frowned as he walked towards the crowd.
Everyone was shocked. No one expected to see the legendary king of the business world here. It was not a picture on TV or on the inte, but Ji Lingchen in the flesh. He actually came to this ce!
Yue Qi also looked at Ji Lingchen with some excitement. He hurriedly straightened up, wanting to leave a good impression of himself in front of Ji Lingchen. This way, when he inherited thepany, he might be able to rely on this chance encounter to give him a leg up. If he was lucky, he might even be able to cooperate with the Ji Corporation!
Ji Lingchen stopped in his tracks when he reached the crowd.
The students were even more shocked. If Ji Lingchen was not passing by this ce by chance, then he must havee here on purpose!
When Ji Wen saw his uncleing, he hung his head guiltily. Since his uncle had seen what he was about to do, he quickly threw away the ashtray in his hand. The ashtray fell onto the ground and rolled far away.
¡°Uncle,¡± Ji Wen said without any confidence.
Ji Lingchen did not reprimand his nephew. Instead, he handed the bag in his hand to Ji Wen and said indifferently, ¡°Put on your clothes before you fight!¡±
Everyone was so shocked that they could not close their mouths. What did Ji Wen just call Ji Lingchen? Uncle? Then he was Ji Lingchen¡¯s nephew.
¡°Where¡¯s your aunt?¡± Ji Lingchen asked.
Ji Wen pointed to a room not far away. ¡°Siyu fell into the water. She¡¯s taking care of her in the room.¡±
Ji Lingchen nodded. He turned around and walked to the door. He knocked on it. ¡°Xiaonuan, hubby¡¯s here,¡±
Everyone¡¯s expressions were very interesting. They had not recovered from their shock earlier, but now here came another blow. Hubby? Xiaonuan was Fang Xiaonuan, right?
A momentter, the door opened, and Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s face appeared. She called out in a soft voice, ¡°Hubby, you¡¯re here!¡±
Chapter 286 - 286 Reprimanding
286 Reprimanding
Ji Lingchen sized up his wife from head to toe. After confirming that she was fine, he looked into the room and asked, ¡°Where¡¯s Xiaoyu?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan exited the room and closed the door. ¡°Hubby, Xiaoyu is taking a bath. It¡¯s not appropriate for you toe in.¡±
Ji Lingchen nodded to show that he understood.
Fang Xiaonuan asked again, ¡°Hubby, have you seen Xiaowen? He joined a drinking contest with someone before he jumped into the water to save Xiaoyu. He drank more than ten bottles!¡±
When Ji Lingchen arrived earlier to deliver the clothes, he had already smelled the strong smell of alcoholing from his nephew¡¯s body. He knew that his nephew had drunk a lot.
Fang Xiaonuan looked at the shocked faces of her ssmates not far away. She pulled her husband¡¯s hand and walked to them, meaning to introduce him. ¡°Aren¡¯t you all curious about who I¡¯m married to? This is my husband, Ji Lingchen. Have you heard of him?¡±
How could they not have heard of him? In fact, everyone knew his name! They had not expected that Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s husband was Ji Lingchen! No wonder Ji Wen had specially warned them that Fang Xiaonuan was already taken. Furthermore, they could not afford to offend that person. Who would dare to offend the king of the business world? They would be courting death!
Everyone¡¯s gazes immediately shifted from the ¡°ordinary¡± Fang Xiaonuan to Ji Lingchen, the great CEO Ji, who was hugging his wife.
In an instant, it was as if a thousand-pound hammer had struck everyone¡¯s head, making them dizzy and unable to recover for a long time.
Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s eyes shed, and she noticed Yue Qi, who was avoiding her gaze. She immediately shouted at her husband, ¡°Hubby, look at that guy in a bathrobe over there. Let me introduce him to you. He¡¯s the young master of the Yue family, Yue Qi.¡±
...
Ji Lingchen¡¯s sharp eyes swept over him, and the tension in the air made Yue Qi want to run away. He was the one who had just fought with his nephew!
Fang Xiaonuan continued. ¡°Young Master Yue is very capable. Just now, he got Zhang Lian and Ji Wen to have a drinking contest. He even plotted with Li Shu to push Xiaoyu into the pool.¡±
Ji Lingchen chuckled darkly.
Yue Qi was so flustered that he stuttered. ¡°C-CEO Ji, that has nothing to do with me. Fang Xiaonuan is wrong.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan looked at Yue Qi yfully, ¡°What did I say wrong? Where¡¯s Li Shu? do you want to drag him out for a confrontation? Don¡¯t be embarrassed to admit the ¡®good thing¡¯ you¡¯ve done. You were the one who sent Ji Wen and Siyu swimming in the winter. This is a good way to prevent cardiovascr and cerebrovascr diseases. It¡¯s especially good for the body. We will definitely thank you properly!¡±
Ji Lingchen looked at the boy in front of him, who was panicking, and asked calmly, ¡°Which Yue family? Which Li family?¡±
CEO Ji could not be bothered to talk to a group of students. At this age, only his wife in his arms could arouse his interest. Of course, he was not asking for no reason. Since he asked, he would definitely take action.
He could put aside the drinking contest with his nephew, but he would remember them for deliberately pushing his sister into the water!
Fang Xiaonuan quickly made aint, telling her husband thepany names and even their addresses. She was just short of telling her husband Yue Qi¡¯s and Li Shu¡¯s home addresses.
Ji Lingchen nodded. He already knew what to do.
After a while, Liu Siyan also arrived. He was carrying his sister¡¯s clothes. He knocked on the door. ¡°Xiaoyu, I¡¯m here. Open the door.¡±
...
Liu Siyu opened the door for her brother. She was wearing a bathrobe. She was out of breath from the hot bath just now, and her face was red.
After seeing Liu Siyan, she felt better. She threw herself into her brother¡¯s arms and cried, ¡°Brother, Li Shu pushed me into the pool on purpose. My clothes are all wet. I almost drowned and never saw you again. You have to take revenge for me!¡±
Liu Siyan patted his sister¡¯s shoulder and tried to push her away, but Liu Siyu hugged him tightly and refused to let go. Her hands were wrapped around Liu Siyan¡¯s waist, and her fingers were sped together, locking her in ce there.
Her biological brother could not take it anymore. His sister was hugging a man while wearing a bathrobe. He was unhappy!
Ji Lingchen walked over and, without a word, pulled Liu Siyu¡¯s hands away.
Liu Siyu, who was in the middle of hugging her brother, did not see who pulled her away. She cursed. ¡°Who the f*ck dares to separate my brother and¡¡±
Before she could finish her sentence, she looked up and saw Ji Lingchen¡¯s gloomy face. She immediately shut her mouth and swallowed half of her curses.
¡°Continue.¡± Ji Lingchen spoke like a parent.
Liu Siyu hunched her shoulders and quickly hid behind Liu Siyan, not daring to speak anymore.
¡°Who taught you to say that?¡± Ji Lingchen disdained to talk to students and was toozy to even get angry, but when he heard his sister say all that, he could not help but reprimand her. He had already adapted to his identity as an elder brother.
...
Chapter 287 - 287 Refusing to Admit It
287 Refusing to Admit It
Liu Siyu did not dare to speak.
Fang Xiaonuan hurriedly walked over and tugged at her husband, who was still in a fit of anger. ¡°Why are you being so fierce? You¡¯re the only one with such a loud voice. If you scare Xiaoyu into tears again and she ignores you in the future, then what?¡±
¡°She¡¯s just a little girl. It¡¯s not appropriate for her to wear a bathrobe and hug a man. She even started scolding people. Can I not say anything?¡±
¡°She¡¯s hugging her brother. Who else should she hug?¡±
Ji Lingchen was rendered speechless by his wife¡¯s words. Before his sister¡¯s identity became known, he had no right to interfere in Liu Siyu¡¯s affairs.
Liu Siyan reached out and tucked Liu Siyu¡¯s hair behind her ear. Then he lowered his head, and kissed the top of her head lightly. ¡°Let¡¯s go inside and get you changed. Don¡¯t catch a cold.¡±
¡°Okay.¡± Liu Siyu obediently held his brother¡¯s arm and was about to enter the room.
Suddenly, Ji Lingchen stepped forward. He grabbed Liu Siyan by the shoulder and pulled him back out. ¡°Why are you going in?¡±
Liu Siyu gathered her courage and said to Ji Lingchen, ¡°My brother will keep mepany while I get dressed!¡±
¡°You¡¯re a 20-year-olddy. How can you let your brother in when you¡¯re changing?¡±
...
With that, he snatched the bag from Liu Siyan¡¯s hand and threw it to Liu Siyu. Then he pushed his wife¡¯s back and said, ¡°Be good. Go in and apany her.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan, who had been pushed into the room by her husband was speechless.
After the door closed, Liu Siyu finally could not hold it in any longer and asked Fang Xiaonuan, ¡°Xiaonuan, is there something wrong with your husband? Did he not forget to take his medicine today? Is it not enough for him to worry about you? Why is he worried about me as well? He¡¯s crazy and a big fool!¡±
Fang Xiaonuan could not bear to listen any longer and said, ¡°Ah, stop it. My husband is so busy. How does he have time to worry about you too? Also, about you being pushed into the water this time, just wait and see. My husband will not let Yue Qi and Li Shu¡¯s family off.¡±
Although he did not say much, the calmer Ji Lingchen became, the more he cared about this matter. People in high positions would not let others easily see through them.
¡°Xiaonuan, let me ask you something. Why has your husband been involving himself in my business recently? He¡¯s just always doing things that might cause people to misunderstand. And you¡¯re not angry at all?¡±
Liu Siyu looked at her friend, puzzled. She hoped that she could give her an answer.
Fang Xiaonuan took out the clothes from the bag and ced them on the bed one by one. After hesitating for a while, she slowly said, ¡°My husband once lost a younger sister.¡±
Hearing this, Liu Siyu¡¯s eyes narrowed. ¡°So?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°You probably remind him of her. That¡¯s why he treats you like a younger sister and want to take care of you.¡±
The two of them fell silent.
...
Liu Siyu shook her head, trying to get the memory of her crying and screaming for her brother out of her mind.
¡°You¡¯re so annoying!¡±
¡°Why are you saying the same thing as Sun Wukong?¡±
¡°It¡¯s nothing.¡± After that, Liu Siyu took the clothes and went to the bathroom.
Fang Xiaonuan picked up her friend¡¯s underwear and asked, ¡°Xiaoyu, don¡¯t tell me that your brother also took this from your closet.¡±
¡°What?¡± Liu Siyu snatched the underwear away. ¡°My mom gave it to me, okay?¡±
After changing his clothes, Ji Wen went to stand next to Ji Lingchen.
¡°Siyu, how are you feeling?¡± Ji Wen asked.
¡°I¡¯m fine,¡± Liu Siyu said, jumping up and down. ¡°Let¡¯s go home.¡±
They all nodded, and before the gathering ended, the three of them were brought home.
In the car, Ji Lingchen turned on his vengeful mode again. ¡°Ji Wen, tell me everything you know about Yue Qi and Li Shu,¡±
...
¡°Alright, Li Shu is Yue Qi¡¯s follower and wants to curry favor with the Yue family,¡± Ji Wen said. ¡°Yue Qi is a scoundrel. He has always liked Siyu, but she does not return his feelings. Once, Fang Xiaonuan even beat him up, but because the Fang family and the Yue family¡¯s power were on par, this matter was left unsettled.¡±
¡°Did Xiaonuan hit anyone today?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, said, ¡°No, I really didn¡¯t.¡±
Ji Lingchen, who understood his wife very well, asked, ¡°You didn¡¯t throw them into the pool?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan was stubborn and said, ¡°They couldn¡¯t walk steadily, so they slipped and fell in,¡± she said.
¡°Is that so?¡± Ji Lingchen asked in return.
¡°Yes!¡± Fang Xiaonuan nodded.
In any case, she did not remember hitting anyone. If she could not remember it, it meant nothing. If her husband found out, she would not admit it no matter what. Otherwise, she would just say that she had lost her memory!
Chapter 288 - 288 The Ginger Soup
288 The Ginger Soup
Ji Lingchen then asked his nephew, ¡°Xiaowen, your aunt¡¡±
¡°I don¡¯t know anything. I drank too much and I lost my memory. I don¡¯t remember anything,¡± Ji Wen immediately said.
Fang Xiaonuan was very satisfied with her nephew¡¯s reaction.
Ji Lingchen snorted coldly. He had told his little wife many times not to fight, but she did not take his advice seriously.
In another car, Liu Siyan was driving. ¡°Why aren¡¯t you saying anything?¡±
Usually, when he was driving, Liu Siyu was so talkative that Liu Siyan would sometimes want to throw her out of the window. But today, she was extremely quiet, as if her brain had frozen when she fell in the water.
Liu Siyu scratched her head. ¡°Nothing much.¡±
While Liu Siyan was waiting for the traffic light to turn green, he turned to look at his sister, who seemed to be troubled.
Liu Siyu finally could not help but ask, ¡°Brother, let me ask you, how did the scar on my arme about?¡±
Liu Siyan¡¯s grip on the steering wheel tightened. ¡°You bit yourself.¡±
¡°Why would I bite myself?¡± Liu Siyu asked.
¡°You were probably a little silly when you were young,¡± Liu Siyan replied.
When they arrived home, Liu Siyu found no one in the house, not even the maids.
¡°Where did Mom and Dad go? Why are Grandpa and Grandma not here? Where are the maids?¡± Liu Siyu asked curiously.
Liu Siyan said, ¡°None of them are here. What¡¯s wrong? ¡±
¡°Then¡¡± Could it be that her brother had taken her undergarments from the cab? She wanted to be struck down by a bolt of lightning!
Liu Siyu blushed. ¡°Um, brother, I¡¯m a little sleepy. I¡¯m going to bed.¡±
¡°You haven¡¯t eaten yet, have you?¡± Liu Siyan had already found out that they only drank at the hotel.
Liu Siyu was not hungry at first, but after hearing her brother talk about food, her stomach started to growl.
Liu Siyan quickly took off her coat and casually left it on the sofa. He turned around and went into the kitchen. ¡°Come, let¡¯s talk. I¡¯ll cook some noodles for you.¡±
Liu Siyu followed her brother into the kitchen.
¡
After Fang Xiaonuan and Ji Wen reached home, Ji Lingchen went into the kitchen to prepare dinner for them.
¡°You two went to the party without eating?¡± Old Master Ji said with a look of disdain.
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°We were deliberately saving our appetites so we can have dinner at home. That way, you can have ate-night snack with us!¡±
¡°Hmph, you¡¯re using me as an excuse!¡± After Old Master Ji finished speaking, he sat opposite the two.
Ji Wen had drunk a lot and even jumped into the cold swimming pool.
Ji Lingchen ordered the servants to prepare more hangover soup and ginger soup for him.
Although Fang Xiaonuan did not jump into the pool, her husband forced her to drink a bowl of ginger soup too. The moment she saw the pungent ginger soup, her mood soured.
She rolled her eyes and suddenly looked at her husband opposite her and asked, ¡°Hubby, do you love me?¡±
¡°I don¡¯t.¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
Fang Xiaonuan pouted and thought, ¡®D*mn it, why isn¡¯t my husband ying by the rules?¡¯
¡°But hubby, I really love you. I want to share all the good things in the world with you,¡± she said sweetly.
Ji Lingchen had long picked up on his wife¡¯s tricks. ¡°Finish the ginger soup or you can¡¯t go to bed tonight.¡±
After Fang Xiaonuan finished her meal, she looked at the bowl of unptable ginger soup and frowned. ¡°There¡¯s an old saying that ims carrots are for winter and ginger is for summer. It¡¯s winter now, so I can¡¯t drink ginger soup. I want to drink carrot juice!¡±
Ji Lingchen could not do anything to his disobedient wife. Ji Wen had already finished the ginger soup, but his wife was negotiating with him at the dining table.
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°Hubby, how about this? You take a sip, I take a sip, and you take another sip?¡±
When it came to negotiation, Ji Lingchen had never lost. His wife was overestimating herself.
Ji Wen was enjoying the conflict and Old Master Ji was doing the same. The two of them ced their bets to see who would relent.
¡°I think Xiaonuan has been bested by your uncle,¡± Old Master Ji whispered into his grandson¡¯s ear.
Ji Wen also whispered in his grandfather¡¯s ear, ¡°Grandpa, I think you¡¯ve underestimated Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s ability to torment people.¡±
¡°It¡¯s gettingte, and the ginger soup is getting cold. Don¡¯t make me force you to drink it.¡± Ji Lingchen deliberately tried to scare his wife.
Fang Xiaonuan held the bowl and lowered her head to take a sip. She immediately frowned. This was too unptable!
She mmed the bowl on the table and looked fearless. ¡°I won¡¯t drink it. I won¡¯t drink it even if my life is at stake. It¡¯s awful!¡±
Old Master Ji saw that his daughter-inw¡¯s face was all pinched up. He asked, ¡°Is the ginger soup that bad?¡±
Ji Wen deliberately tricked his grandfather. ¡°It¡¯s not that bad. She¡¯s just pretending. You¡¯ll know when you try it.¡±
Then, a bowl of ginger soup was ced in front of Old Master Ji, who was more curious than anyone.
Chapter 289 - 289 A Warning to Single Young Women
289 A Warning to Single Young Women
Fang Xiaonuan did not expect that Old Master Ji would go looking for trouble this way. She said, ¡°Dad, are you that depressed?¡±
¡°I just want to try,¡± Old Master Ji replied. After that, he took a sip of the soup and spat it out. He put the bowl down and ran after his grandson with his walking stick.
The grandfather-grandson duo ran out of the dining room, leaving only the young couple in the dining room.
Fang Xiaonuan looked at the yellow soup in front of her and felt worried.
Ji Lingchen could tell that his wife really did not want to drink the ginger soup, so he walked over to her bowl and took a sip. As expected, it was spicy and pungent.
Fang Xiaonuan turned to look at her husband. Her face looked pitiful. She said coquettishly, ¡°Hubby, can I not drink it? I¡¯m really fine.¡±
Ji Lingchen put down the ginger soup and went back to his room. When he came back, he had a bag of brown sugar in his hand. He put a bit of brown sugar into the soup and stirred it. After the brown sugar dissolved, the ginger soup became reddish.
Ji Lingchen tried it and found that it tasted much better. It was much easier to drink.
He then picked up the bowl and ced it in front of Fang Xiaonuan. ¡°Be good. It¡¯s not spicy anymore. Drink it.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s heart melted when she saw what her husband did. It was just a bowl of brown sugar ginger water! She drank it! She held the bowl with both hands, brought it to her mouth, and gulped it down. Although it was much sweeter with the brown sugar, it still did not taste great. She stuck out her tongue and closed her eyes, looking like she was in pain.
Ji Lingchen caressed his wife¡¯s head, then leaned over to kiss her red lips.
The kiss ended quickly. Ji Lingchen¡¯s gaze was intense as he said, ¡°Let¡¯s go back to the room.¡± He could do whatever he wanted only in the bedroom.
Fang Xiaonuan had probably lost her mind from drinking too much ginger soup. She allowed her husband to lead her back to her room. It was obvious what happened next.
When she was naked, her husband was on top of her. He took her in his mouth and rubbed his lips and teeth all over her. ¡°You want to find a handsome guy to make me angry? Hmm?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan cried and begged for mercy. ¡°Hubby, I was wrong. I won¡¯t!¡±
She felt good when she was talking big, but she regretted it in bed.
After being lectured by her husband, Fang Xiaonuan learned her lesson the hard way. She would never deliberately anger her husband again.
¡°Be my obedient kitten from now on,¡± Ji Lingchen said as he pushed deeper into her.
Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s face was flushed, and she mumbled while sweating profusely, ¡°Okay, be your good kitten.¡±
Ji Lingchen¡¯s movements were gentle and lingering.
Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s experience was a clear deterrent to single young women. Marriage was not worth looking forward to, and they should not get married casually!
After a one-on-one battle in bed, Fang Xiaonuan was panting. She had an impulse to castrate her husband! However, she did not dare to say that. She just imagined doing it.
Fang Xiaonuan felt caught in a marriage of deep waters and burning mes. She was muddleheaded every day and did not even notice the changes in Liu Siyu.
Liu Siyu had been asking her brother for photo albums at home recently. She would look at them for a long time until someone called her attention away. She closed the photo album. There was a picture of her standing in a wheat field with a puppy in her arms. However, she remembered that her family had never raised dogs, and she had never been to a wheat field.
Liu Siyu felt a little uneasy. Liu Siyan remembered but he did not say anything.
That night, Liu Siyu fell asleep.
Liu Siyan went to his father¡¯s study in the middle of the night. He pinched the space between his brows and sat opposite his father. ¡°Dad, tell her the truth. Xiaoyu already knows something¡¯s off.¡±
Mr. Liu lit a cigarette and started smoking. ¡°Your mother doesn¡¯t know yet. I¡¯m afraid she can¡¯t take such a big blow.¡±
Liu Siyan said, ¡°Our family has kept her for 15 years. She has lived in our family for 15 years on behalf of my sister. She has the right to know the truth. Even if we did save her life, she has already paid her dues over the past 15 years. If Xiaoyu only finds out when the Ji familyes to us and asks for her, she won¡¯t be able to take it. It¡¯s not just Mom.¡±
She was living a happy life. Suddenly, she would be told that she was not this family¡¯s biological daughter. Her parents who had always doted on her and her brother who always put her first were not rted to her. Her life of being treated like a princess and a beautiful girl was all a lie.
If that day really came, Liu Siyan could not imagine what would happen to his family. He had already asked Ji Lingchen for a month, and he hoped that he could bid Xiaoyu goodbye at some point during this time.
Liu Siyan picked up a cigarette from his father¡¯s table and started smoking as well.
Chapter 290 - 290 Deductive Genius
290 Deductive Genius
Mr. Liu had also met Ji Lingchen, and the two of them had discussed Liu Siyu. The entire Liu family had doted on Liu Siyu as if she was their own daughter and had never let her suffer the slightest bit. In the beginning, they had only treated her as a substitute. Butter, they all epted the fact that their daughter had passed away. They had long treated Liu Siyu as their own daughter.
¡°Siyan, I can¡¯t bear to part with Siyu either.¡±
¡°But she¡¯s not Liu Siyu. She¡¯s Ji Xiaoyu!¡± Liu Siyan sighed.
There was a sudden knock on the door.
!!
Liu Siyan and Mr. Liu immediately became nervous. ¡°Who is it?¡±
Mrs. Liu pushed the door open and entered the study. Her eyes were slightly red as she looked at her husband and son. She had heard their entire conversation.
¡°Which Ji family is it?¡± Mrs. Liu asked, sobbing.
She had fallen asleep, but she suddenly had a nightmare. After waking up, she went to her daughter¡¯s room. On her way back, she passed by her husband¡¯s study and heard voices inside. She felt that her daughter had been feeling offtely. She was always in a daze and depressed. She wanted to talk to her son and husband, and then she heard what they said just now.
Liu Siyan looked at his mother and said worriedly, ¡°It¡¯s Ji Lingchen.¡±
Mrs. Liu¡¯s eyes were bloodshot. She was determined to stop her husband and son from telling her daughter the truth. ¡°No one can take my daughter away!¡± She wanted to hide her daughter so that no one could take her away.
Liu Siyan advised, ¡°Xiaoyu has been looking at old photos a lot recently. She even asked me a lot about her childhood. She¡¯s been in a daze recently. It¡¯s obvious that something¡¯s on her mind. She must have found out something.¡±
Mrs. Liu was insistent and told her son, ¡°You¡¯re not allowed to tell her!¡±
Liu Siyan said, ¡°Mom! Wake up, Xiaoyu can¡¯t rece Siyu and live as her for the rest of her life!¡±
Mrs. Liu could not calm herself down. She only knew that her daughter was about to be taken away by someone else.
The family of three, who had always been harmonious, almost quarreled in the study room. In the end, Mr. Liu asked his son to leave the study room, leaving only him and his wife.
The next day, Ji Lingchen sent his wife to school and happened to run into Mrs. Liu, who was dropping her daughter off.
¡°Mrs. Liu,¡± Fang Xiaonuan greeted her warmly when she saw her.
When Ji Lingchen saw Mrs. Liu, whom he had always wanted to meet, he said to his little wife, ¡°Xiaonuan, you can go to ss.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan was a little worried. She saw that Mrs. Liu¡¯s eyes were a little puffy, and Liu Siyu, who was in the ssroom, was also looking in their direction.
¡°Xiaonuan, you don¡¯t need to leave.¡± Mrs. Liu wanted Fang Xiaonuan to stay.
¡°Madam, this concerns adults. Let¡¯s not involve the child.¡±
He looked at his wife and motioned for her to go in.
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°Hubby, I¡¯m¡¡±
¡°Go in and focus on your lessons. This isn¡¯t something a child should be involved in.¡±
¡°I¡¯m not a child.¡± Fang Xiaonuan walked to her husband¡¯s side and held his arm, not wanting to leave.
He treated her like an adult in bed at night and treated her like a child during the day. She felt that her husband had a double standard!
¡°Go in and apany Xiaoyu.¡± Ji Lingchen tried to trick his wife.
Fang Xiaonuan turned around and handed this difficult task to her nephew. ¡°Xiaowen, go in and apany Xiaoyu.¡±
Ji Wen scratched his head. It was better to go in first.
In the ssroom, Ji Wen sat down next to Liu Siyu and asked, ¡°Siyu, what¡¯s up with you these days?¡±
Liu Siyu replied listlessly, ¡°Nothing much.¡±
¡°Is there a problem with your mother¡¯spany?¡± Ji Wen asked.
Mrs. Liu¡¯s expression just now was very sour. Something big must have happened to the Liu family. Ji Wen felt that it should be something rted to thepany. Otherwise, she would not have asked his uncle for help. Moreover, many people in the business world knew that CEO Ji respected his young wife¡¯s words very much. Therefore, Mrs. Liu probably kept Fang Xiaonuan behind so that she could get Ji Lingchen to help out on ount of the friendship between Liu Siyu and Fang Xiaonuan.
Liu Siyu had been in low spirits recently. Perhaps she was too worried about her mother, but she was too embarrassed to tell her friends.
Ji Wen felt that everything made sense. He had deduced everything based on some clues. He was simply a deductive genius!
¡°Siyu, don¡¯t worry. Your family¡¯spany will be fine. I believe in your mom. Besides, Fang Xiaonuan will surely help your mom,¡± Ji Wen said.
Liu Siyu looked at Ji Wen, who was confident and determined. She was speechless. What was he thinking?
Outside, Ji Lingchen could not persuade Fang Xiaonuan to go, so he could only help her skip ss. He brought her to a cafe so they could have a chat with Mrs. Liu.
It was morning, so many people were at the cafe to buy coffee. Apart from students, there were also nearby office workers.
Chapter 291 - 291 Free Transfer
291 Free Transfer
The three of them sat facing each other. Mrs. Liu was silent, but she suddenly got up and tried to kneel down in front of Ji Lingchen.
¡°Mrs. Liu, what are you doing?¡± Fang Xiaonuan cried out in shock and quickly went over to help her up.
There were a lot of people in the shop. When Mrs. Liu knelt down, many people looked over.
Mrs. Liu cried and begged Ji Lingchen, ¡°CEO Ji, I¡¯m begging you. Don¡¯t take my daughter away.¡±
Ji Lingchen¡¯s face was cold. If it wasn¡¯t for the Liu family¡¯s kindness to his sister, he would not have forgiven them for taking her.
¡°Madame, it was the Liu family who took my sister away for 15 years,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
Mrs. Liu continued to cry. ¡°CEO Ji, I don¡¯t want Yanyu Corporation anymore. I¡¯ll give it to you, okay? I just beg you not to take my daughter away.¡± After she finished speaking, she took out apany resale agreement from her bag. She had already drafted the contents of the agreement. The agreement said that she would transfer thepany to the Ji Corporation for free.
¡°CEO Ji, I¡¯ll give you thepany. Could you let Xiaoyu stay with us? She¡¯s my life. I can¡¯t lose her!¡±
Fang Xiaonuan was affected by Mrs. Liu¡¯s emotions and started to cry as well.
Back then, her parents would rather offend the Ji family than let her marry Ji Lingchen, whom they had never met before. This reminded her of strong parental love. Today, Mrs. Liu was willing to give the Yanyu Corporation she had founded to Ji Lingchen free of charge. This was also a sign of her love for Xiaoyu. Mrs. Liu really regarded Xiaoyu as more important than her own life. She was willing to give up everything for her.
Fang Xiaonuan pulled out a few tissues and sat down beside Mrs. Liu, helping her wipe her tears. ¡°Mrs. Liu, Xiaoyu was lucky to meet you.¡±
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Liu started to beg Fang Xiaonuan again. ¡°Xiaonuan, do you know how much I love Xiaoyu? Can you help me?¡±
¡°Mrs. Liu, I¡¯m sorry. I can¡¯t help you.¡± Fang Xiaonuan looked into Mrs. Liu¡¯s eyes and said, ¡°Mrs. Liu, you¡¯re only looking at how much you and Mr. Liu have sacrificed for Xiaoyu. You two lived happily for 15 years, but you took away my husband¡¯s right to have a happy family. My husband has been looking for her for 15 years, from 13 to 28. My mother-inw fell sick from longing and passed away a long time ago. Do you know that my husband has been carrying this on his back for so many years? The endless guilt, self-me, and remorse¡ The Ji family could¡¯ve been as warm and harmonious as your family, but because Xiaoyu and my mother-inw are no longer around, the Ji family fell apart.¡±
¡°My husband lost his mother, his home, and his sister when he was thirteen. Looking for his sister has kept him going all this time. You can¡¯t just think about your own happiness and make my husband give up his family¡¯s happiness. That¡¯s not fair.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan wiped her tears dry and ced the contract back into Mrs. Liu¡¯s bag. ¡°Mrs. Liu, you see Xiaoyu as more important than your own life, but my husband is no different. Everyone in the Ji family is waiting for Xiaoyu toe home. She¡¯s part of their family.¡±
¡°Can you understand how they feel? Mrs. Liu, my husband was afraid that you wouldn¡¯t be able to ept it, so he had already given in and made sure you had a month to do so. He¡¯s not a saint, so there¡¯s no reason for him to always consider your feelings, right? Don¡¯t force his hand. We, the Ji family, will never give up on Xiaoyu!¡±
She was talking on behalf the Ji family. This was enough to make her stance clear.
Mrs. Liu covered her face and cried. The originally elegant female CEO was now the most helpless woman.
Ji Lingchen looked at his wife, who would always support him, and felt touched. There were many things that he could not say, but his little wife, who understood him, said them for him. At this moment, his heart waspletely full.
Fang Xiaonuan continued, ¡°Mrs. Liu, Xiaoyu and I have been friends for many years. Our rtionship is very strong. When I first found out about this, I was as worried as you were that Xiaoyu would lose her happy family. I even quarreled with my husband and lost my temper. At that time, I didn¡¯t even think about my husband, nor did I think about the Ji family.¡±
¡°But the truth is that your family¡¯s current happiness is built on the Ji family¡¯s pain. There¡¯s no reason for the Ji family to suffer in order to fulfill your happiness. Xiaoyu is already an adult, and she has the right to know about this. After knowing, everything will be up to her. If we really love her, we should respect her choice.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan had listened to her husband¡¯s instructions. For the past month, she had held back and not told Liu Siyu. She had done so to give the Liu family time to ept the truth. She had not even told Xiaowen.
What the Liu family was most worried about was that Mrs. Liu would not be able to take it after she found out the truth. Now that she knew, there was no need to hide it anymore.
Chapter 292 - 292 Visiting the Ji Family
292 Visiting the Ji Family
After a while, Liu Siyan arrived. Ji Lingchen had informed him of their meeting.
He wanted to take his mother away as soon as he arrived. Mrs. Liu also understood the Ji family¡¯s intentions, so she did not need to continue persuading them. She could understand Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s points, but she could not help but be selfish. It was human nature. No one would dare to say that they were absolutely selfless. Liu Siyan came to pick Mrs. Liu up. The couple were the only ones left in the cafe.
Fang Xiaonuan felt stifled. She picked up the ss of water on the table and finished it in one gulp. ¡°Hubby, do you think Xiaoyu will hate me?¡±
She was the one who had personally verified her identity. If she had not insisted on doing a paternity test, she might have been able to live happily in the Liu family for a longer period of time.
¡°Do you regret it?¡± Ji Lingchen asked.
Fang Xiaonuan shook her head. She took a tissue, wiped her tears, and blew her nose. But even in her current state, her husband still thought she looked cute.
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°If I were Liu Siyu, I might not be able to ept it. But if I don¡¯t learn the truth, I¡¯ll regret it for the rest of my life.¡±
Ji Lingchen paid the bill and left with his little wife, whose eyes were red from crying.
At Jing University, Liu Siyu was not in the mood to be in ss. She asked Ji Wen, ¡°Ji Wen, can I visit your house today?¡±
¡°Aren¡¯t you afraid that my parents will think of you as my girlfriend?¡± Ji Wen asked, looking silly.
Liu Siyu looked at Ji Wen, who was not very smart. He was not stupid at critical moments, but sometimes, he really seemed dumb.
¡°Can¡¯t I just say that I¡¯m Xiaonuan¡¯s friend? ¡±
Ji Wen saw that Liu Siyu was a little impatient and quickly agreed. ¡°Sure, I¡¯ll take you to my house after school.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan skipped ss for the day and followed her husband to the office. When she returned home that night, she realized that there was an unexpected guest in the house. ¡°Xiaoyu, what are you doing here?¡±
Liu Siyu said, ¡°I just got here not too long ago. You didn¡¯t even do anything today at¡¡±
¡°Ah, it¡¯s good that you¡¯re here. It¡¯s good.¡± Fang Xiaonuan quickly interrupted Liu Siyu. If her family found out that she had skipped ss, they would lecture her.
Old Master Ji looked at the little girl in front of him and felt a sense of familiarity. ¡°Xiaoyu, I¡¯ve always heard my Xiaonuan mention you. She says that you two are best friends.¡±
Liu Siyu¡¯s eyes teared up when she saw him. In the shadow of a memory she had of him, he did not seem this old. He should have ck hair. Every day after work, he would hug a little girl in a princess dress, kiss her little face, and say with a smile, ¡°Did Xiaoyu miss Daddy today?¡±
The little girl would reply with a smile and say, ¡°I did.¡±
He would smile even more happily, and then he would tilt his head and say, ¡°If you miss me, why don¡¯t you give Daddy a kiss?¡±
The little girl kissed his cheek, then picked up her toys and started ying in the living room.
¡°Child, what¡¯s wrong with you?¡± Feng Qi noticed Liu Siyu¡¯s unusual behavior and quickly handed her a tissue.
Liu Siyu wiped her tears and said in a nasal voice, ¡°It¡¯s been too cold recently. I have rhinitis and the wind is strong. I¡¯m sorry. It got into my eyes.¡±
She looked at Feng Qi with tears in her eyes. ¡°Xiaonuan, I¡¯m here to y with you today.¡±
Then, she walked to her friend¡¯s side and held her hand. ¡°Show me around your house.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan felt that there was something different about Liu Siyu, and she was not used to it. She even felt that the person before her was not Liu Siyu at all.
She turned to look at her husband, and Ji Lingchen nodded at her.
Fang Xiaonuan brought Liu Siyu out of the living room. The Ji family had lived here for generations, and there was a spacious green area in the backyard.
Liu Siyu¡¯s childhood memories ovepped with the scene in front of her. She seemed to see a checkered nket on thewn, and she and a little boy were each holding a shovel and ying with soil.
There were two women with gentle expressions standing beside them, and not far away, her brother stood like a little knight.
¡°Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu, you¡¯re distracted again,¡± Fang Xiaonuan said.
Liu Siyu was stunned for a moment. She came back to her senses and walked on the strange yet familiarwn.
The man by the window had been watching the two of them, and he had some doubts in his heart.
Ji Wen also walked to the window and asked, ¡°Uncle, you really have a special liking for this window.¡±
Back then, when he had been ying with Fang Xiaonuan in the courtyard, his uncle had been standing here and watching them too.
Now that Fang Xiaonuan had gone out for a walk with someone else, his uncle was back here, watching.
¡°You were the one who brought Liu Siyu to our house?¡± Ji Lingchen suddenly asked.
¡°No.¡± Ji Wen shook his head. ¡°She wanted toe.¡±
Ji Lingchen frowned.
In the evening, the Ji family invited Liu Siyu to join them for dinner, but she refused.
After a while, Liu Siyan came to pick her up.
Chapter 293 - 293 Found Xiaoyu
293 Found Xiaoyu
Old Master Ji had a good memory. He pointed at Liu Siyan and said, ¡°Oh, isn¡¯t this the police captain who insisted on arresting Xiaonuan when she got into a fight?¡±
Liu Siyan nodded awkwardly, then introduced himself to Old Master Ji, ¡°Hello, Old Master Ji. I¡¯m Liu Siyan, Siyu¡¯s older brother.¡±
¡°Oh, it¡¯s you.¡± Old Master Ji looked at the young man in front of him. He admired the young man¡¯s fearlessness and the sense of justice he exuded.
After picking up Liu Siyu, the two of them drove away.
¡°I really like Siyu,¡± Old Master Ji said suddenly. ¡°It would be nice if she could be Ji Wen¡¯s wife!¡±
¡°Dad, no way!¡± She was his daughter!
Old Master Ji turned to look at Fang Xiaonuan in confusion. ¡°What¡¯s wrong? Siyu already has a partner?¡±
Ji Lingchen had been frowning ever since he saw Liu Siyu. Now, he ordered his father, ¡°Dad,e to my study.¡±
Old Master Ji raised his head arrogantly with an expression that said, ¡°I¡¯m not going. What can you do to me?¡±
¡°Dad!¡± Fang Xiaonuan nudged Old Master Ji. ¡°Go on.¡±
Old Master Ji said, ¡°I¡¯m not going. I don¡¯t care about his temper. Hey, hey, hey. Xiaonuan, don¡¯t push me.¡±
Ji Lingchen nced at Mayor Ji, who was sitting on the sofa. ¡°Big brother,e over here for a moment.¡±
Mayor Ji was very cooperative and followed him.
The three of them went into the study. The more Old Master Ji looked at Ji Lingchen, the more he disliked him. As a son, he always ordered his father around. If one didn¡¯t know better, they would think that he was his son!
Old Master Ji said, ¡°If you have something to say, then say it. I¡¯m so annoyed!¡±
¡°I¡¯ve found Xiaoyu,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
Mayor Ji was shocked at first, but then he calmed down. Every time he had heard this, he would end up disappointed.
¡°Where is she this time?¡±
¡°In front of me.¡± Ji Lingchen looked at his father and brother and said, ¡°She was here today.¡±
¡°Lingchen, you mean here at our house?¡± Mayor Ji asked, puzzled.
¡°There¡¯s no one,¡± Old Master Ji replied. ¡°The only one who is the same age as Xiaoyu is your wife, Xiaonuan. It can¡¯t be her.¡±
After he finished speaking, he rolled his eyes at his second son. He only knew how to talk nonsense.
¡°You¡¯ve already met her today,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
¡°Lingchen, could you have been scammed?¡± Mayor Ji asked.
Their sister was clearly dead.
Old Master Ji had long given up on finding his daughter.
Ji Lingchen finally could not suppress the excitement in his heart. ¡°It¡¯s Liu Siyu. She¡¯s Xiaoyu. She¡¯s not the Liu family¡¯s biological daughter, but a child they picked up. The real Liu Siyu died a long time ago, and our Xiaoyu has been living as Liu Siyu!¡±
Old Master Ji thought about Liu Siyu, who he had seen today, and looked at his emotional son. ¡°Did you do a DNA test? Is there a bite scar on her arm?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan pushed the door open and entered. ¡°Dad, I ordered the DNA test. I saw the bite scar as well. It does exist.¡±
¡°Xiaonuan?¡± Mayor Ji and Old Master Ji were stunned when they saw Fang Xiaonuan suddenly walk in.
Fang Xiaonuan had been eavesdropping outside the study, and she was the only one who could testify to the bite marks.
The atmosphere in the study suddenly became tense. Old Master Ji did not argue with his son. He sat up straight and looked at the couple. ¡°What¡¯s going on?¡±
Mayor Ji also recalled the first time he saw Liu Siyu. At first sight, he thought that the girl was very pleasing to the eye.
The study was unusually quiet. Old Master Ji and Mayor Ji were waiting for the two to give them an exnation.
¡
Meanwhile, in the car.
After Liu Siyan picked up Liu Siyu, they did not go straight home. Instead, he drove down a quiet road. It was already winter, so there were fewer cars on this road. asionally, a car would drive by.
Liu Siyan stopped the car by the road and turned to look at his sister. ¡°Xiaoyu, when did you find out?¡±
¡°Brother, what are you talking about? I don¡¯t understand,¡± Liu Siyu said.
Liu Siyan said, ¡°I¡¯m not your real brother. Ji Lingchen is. You¡¯re not rted to us by blood. You¡¯re¡¡±
¡°Shut up!¡± Liu Siyu suddenly shouted at Liu Siyan. She did not want to hear it. She wanted to pretend that she did not know anything.
Liu Siyan sighed and continued, ¡°We found you at the beach. You¡¯re a child of the Ji family.¡±
¡°Shut up, brother, shut up! Don¡¯t say anymore!¡± Liu Siyu broke down and cried in the car. She reached out and covered Liu Siyan¡¯s mouth, not letting him continue to say things she did not want to hear. ¡°Brother, don¡¯t say anymore. I¡¯m your sister, not a member of the Ji family!¡±
Liu Siyu spoke through her sobs. She could not ept her real identity at all.
Chapter 294 - 294 Leaving Jing City
294 Leaving Jing City
Liu Siyan¡¯s eyes were also red. He turned off the lights in the car to better hide his tears. ¡°Did you remember it after you fell into the pool?¡±
Liu Siyu covered her ears and shouted, ¡°Brother, please stop talking. I don¡¯t want to be someone else¡¯s child. I¡¯m your sister!¡±
Liu Siyan pulled his crying sister into his arms and patted her shoulder. ¡°I can¡¯t bear to leave you either, but I can¡¯t hide it from you. I want to hide you so badly and let you be my sister for the rest of my life.¡± However, he could not hide anymore.
¡°Brother, I¡¯m so scared.¡± Liu Siyu cried in Liu Siyan¡¯s arms. She was afraid of such a big change. She had been pampered by her family since she was young and had never experienced any hardships. How could she ept the fact that she suddenly found out her identity when she was twenty? No matter how good the Ji family was, it was not as good as the Liu family she had lived in for fifteen years.
!!
Liu Siyan¡¯s tears fell on his sister¡¯s clothes. He consoled her, ¡°Xiaoyu, don¡¯t be afraid. Whether you are Liu Siyu or Ji Xiaoyu, you will always be my sister. I will always protect you and be by your side. Dad and Mom will love you forever. We will be a family for life.¡±
The brother and sister stayed outside for two hours before returning home. As soon as they entered the house, they heard Mrs. Liu going out to look for her daughter like crazy. ¡°No, the Ji family can¡¯t take my daughter away from me. Hubby, quit your job. We¡¯ll leave Jing City!¡±
Mr. Liu held his wife, who was on the verge of a mental breakdown. ¡°Honey, Xiaoyu left a long time ago. We took the Ji family¡¯s daughter away!¡±
Mrs. Liu burst into tears. The contract that stated she would give herpany away for free was still on the coffee table.
Liu Siyu walked into the living room step by step. She pursed her lips and cried again, ¡°Mom, Dad, you already know?¡±
¡°Siyu, you¡¯re back,¡± Mrs. Liu said as he looked at his daughter, whose eyes were red and swollen.
¡°Dad, Mom, I¡¯ve already told Xiaoyu,¡± Liu Siyan said to his parents.
Mrs. Liu pushed her husband away and ran to her daughter. She held her hand and said, ¡°Siyu, you¡¯re a great kid. You¡¯re my child, so don¡¯t go to the Ji family. Let¡¯s leave Jing City as a family, okay? I don¡¯t want mypany anymore, and your dad has resigned. Let¡¯s go together!¡±
Liu Siyu broke down again. ¡°Mom!¡± she shouted. Then, she cried and hugged her mother.
The Liu family had a sleepless night, and the Ji family was not peaceful either.
The couple told Old Master Ji and Mayor Ji everything from how they found out about Xiaoyu to how they confirmed her identity.
¡°That b*stard!¡± Old Master Ji was furious. ¡°How dare he lie to me!¡± He clenched his fists tightly and red. He gritted his teeth so hard that his eyes bulged. He wished he could chew up the person who lied to him and spit him out. His daughter was not dead!
¡°Why didn¡¯t you tell me earlier?¡± Old Master Ji asked.
¡°There are many things that we haven¡¯t investigated,¡± Ji Lingchen exined.
¡°And now?¡± Old Master Ji was alert now.
Ji Lingchen looked at his father and coldly asked, ¡°Why did you go to the police station to close the case less than a month after Xiaoyu went missing?¡±
When the Liu family first found Xiaoyu, they went to the police station to ask about her, but they did not find any information about her.
Ji Lingchen did not believe it at first, but after some investigation, he found out that his father had closed the case less than a month after his sister¡¯s disappearance. He had also suspected that someone had secretly instructed him to do so, but in the end, it was confirmed that his father had personally handled the case. Why did he do that? ¡°Didn¡¯t you want to look for your daughter?¡± Ji Lingchen wanted his father to give him an exnation.
¡°Dad, you know what? If the Liu family had gone to the police station and found Xiaoyu among the missing people, we would have found Xiaoyu back then and not missed out on 15 years. Why did you send someone to look for Xiaoyu, and at the same time, close the case?¡±
Hearing this, Old Master Ji was stunned. He had closed the case early, and that made him miss 15 years of his daughter¡¯s life! There was regret in his cloudy eyes.
¡°Lingchen, the reason why I went to close the case was because I had already found ¡®Xiaoyu¡¯.¡±
Old Master Ji remembered that the child who had died a tragic death back then was his daughter! Her height, body shape, and even the shoes she was wearing all matched those of his daughter. The test results from the forensic doctor also confirmed that she was his daughter. That was why he dropped the case, because there was no need to trouble the police. Who would have thought that after the case was closed, the Liu family would bring Xiaoyu to the police station?
After the case was closed, Old Master Ji wanted to tell his sons the truth. He wanted to say that it was impossible to find Xiaoyu, but his two sons continued searching for her like crazy. Old Master Ji had no choice but to pretend that he was still looking for his daughter in order to give his two sons something to live for. In the end, his wife left them as well.
Chapter 295 - 295 Missing
295 Missing
Old Master Ji told Ji Lingchen everything that had happened that year.
Fang Xiaonuan, however, was confused. She asked doubtfully, ¡°Dad, since the kidnappers had already kidnapped my husband and Xiaoyu, why would they have killed Xiaoyu and let my husband go? If I were the kidnapper, I would have released both of them or killed them both since I¡¯d already kidnapped two people. Why would I kill one and let the other go?¡±
Old Master Ji was also very puzzled.
¡°And that forensic doctor,¡± Fang Xiaonuan continued, ¡°Logically speaking, the doctor¡¯s test report can¡¯t be wrong. The child who died was obviously not your biological daughter, so why did the results say she was?¡±
!!
¡°Tomorrow, investigate the forensic doctor who examined your sister,¡± Old Master Ji told his eldest son.
If Fang Xiaonuan noticed this, her husband would, of course, pick up on it as well.
Fang Xiaonuan continued, ¡°By the way, dad, there¡¯s another key question. Xiaoyu is clearly still alive. How did the fake ¡®Xiaoyu¡¯ you met back then manage to be someone who is so simr to Xiaoyu in terms of height, build, and clothing?¡± When she finished speaking, she was shocked by the direction of her own thoughts. Was this orchestrated by someone close to them?
¡°Lingchen,¡± Old Master Ji said, ¡°Come with me to see the Lin family tomorrow. There are some old scores that we should settle with them!¡±
The Lin family? Fang Xiaonuan looked at her husband. Before she could ask him if Old Master Ji meant Lin Rou¡¯s family, Ji Lingchen nodded, confirming her suspicions.
¡°I¡¯ll go with you guys,¡± Fang Xiaonuan said. She wanted to be present if they were meeting a girl who fancied her husband.
At this moment, her phone suddenly rang. It was an unknown number, so she answered it. ¡°Hello, who¡¯s this?¡±
¡°Xiaonuan, did Xiaoyu go to your ce?¡± It was Liu Siyan on the phone.
¡°Liu Siyan, what happened to Xiaoyu?¡±
¡°Xiaoyu is missing,¡± Liu Siyan said nervously.
Liu Siyu had coaxed her mother into her room and given her a tranquilizer. After she fell asleep, she disappeared from the house and turned off her phone.
Fang Xiaonuan immediately jumped up from the sofa. ¡°How long has she been missing?¡±
The Ji family¡¯s father and sons looked at Fang Xiaonuan at the same time.
Ji Lingchen also stood up, ¡°Xiaonuan¡¡±
Fang Xiaonuan interrupted her husband and continued to listen to the call. ¡°Hello¡ I understand. I¡¯ll go out with my family to look for Xiaoyu immediately. Brother Liu, don¡¯t worry too much. Xiaoyu is very smart. She won¡¯t go to dangerous ces. She probably just can¡¯t ept her identity at the moment and doesn¡¯t know what to do. She needs some time to think about it.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan suppressed the anxiety she felt. She forced herself to calm down andfort the anxious Liu family members. This was not the time to be flustered or let their thoughts run wild. That would not help them find Xiaoyu.
¡°Let¡¯s keep in touch.¡± After Fang Xiaonuan hung up, she said to the three of them, ¡°Xiaoyu is missing. Dad, Brother, hubby, don¡¯t worry. Xiaoyu didn¡¯t run away from home or do anything dangerous. She just needs some time to calm down.¡±
¡°On the way out of our house today, Brother Liu told her about her past. Actually, Xiaoyu started to remember something after she fell into the pool. She came here today to verify her memories.¡±
Old Master Ji recalled how his daughter had looked at him with tears in her eyes, but had said that she had rhinitis and that dust had gotten into her eyes.
¡°Kangde, contact Chief Qiu immediately and look for Xiaoyu. Lingchen, mobilize all of the Ji family¡¯s people and have them split up to search.¡± Old Master Ji turned to his daughter-inw. ¡°Xiaonuan, we can give Xiaoyu some time alone, but it¡¯s toote now. It¡¯s not safe for her to be outside alone.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan could understand how Old Master Ji felt. She wanted to help her family look for her too. ¡°I¡¯ll look for her with Xiaowen. Dad, don¡¯t go out. It¡¯s too hectic outside.¡±
¡°No! This time, I must find my daughter!¡± Old Master Ji refused without hesitation.
Fang Xiaonuan did not stop Old Master Ji. She was just as worried as the Ji family and Liu family. Liu Siyu had been her good friend for many years, like a real sister. When she said that she was not worried, she was onlyforting others and herself at the same time. In fact, she was more anxious than anyone else.
Fang Xiaonuan ran to Ji Wen¡¯s room and pulled him out. He had been lying down and ying with his phone. ¡°Xiaoyu is missing. Let¡¯s go find her.¡±
¡°What happened to her?¡± Ji Wen still did not realize the seriousness of the matter and was still ying with his phone.
Fang Xiaonuan smacked the back of his head. ¡°Liu Siyu is your aunt. She¡¯s missing!¡±
¡°What?¡± Ji Wen threw his phone on the bed and looked at Fang Xiaonuan in confusion.
Chapter 296 - 296 My Aunt
296 My Aunt
Two minutester, Ji Wen put on a cotton-padded jacket over his pajamas and drove Fang Xiaonuan out to look for Liu Siyu.
On the way, Fang Xiaonuan told Ji Wen everything that had happened recently.
Ji Wen¡¯s face was filled with disbelief. ¡°This is too magical. I must be dreaming!¡± With that, he held the steering wheel with one hand and pinched his thigh with the other. ¡°F*ck! It really f*cking hurts!¡± He was not dreaming!
Fang Xiaonuan took out her phone and looked at the map, zooming in and out. She looked at the map of Jing City, trying to guess where Liu Siyu might have gone.
The police were also looking for records of Liu Siyu¡¯s activity, but if she wanted to be alone, she would avoid anything her brother could use to track her.
¡°Fang Xiaonuan, say it again. Is Liu Siyu really my biological aunt who has been missing for fifteen years?¡± Ji Wen asked weakly.
¡°Mm, yes!¡± Fang Xiaonuan replied.
Ji Wen gradually lost control. He mmed the steering wheel hard. ¡°This must be fake!¡± He only had two best friends for so many years, but in the end, they both were his aunts! How could such a coincidence ur?
¡°It¡¯s true. I used your hair for the DNA test,¡± Fang Xiaonuan replied.
¡°When did you steal my hair?¡± Ji Wen roared.
Fang Xiaonuan replied, ¡°When you were hospitalized. Ugh, let¡¯s not dwell on these meaningless things now. The most important thing is to find Xiaoyu as soon as possible. She¡¯ll be finished if she runs into the wrong crowd right now!¡±
Ji Wen also stepped on the elerator and followed Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s directions.
Every time they arrived at a ce, Fang Xiaonuan would remind Ji Wen, ¡°Stay in the car and don¡¯t move. I¡¯ll go take a look.¡±
After saying that, she turned on the shlight function on her phone and walked into the dark alley.
¡°Why don¡¯t I go with you?¡± Ji Wen asked.
¡°You better stay in the car obediently,¡± Fang Xiaonuan said. ¡°I don¡¯t want to have to take the time to protect you if we¡¯re really in danger!¡±
Ji Wen wanted to refute her, but what she said made sense. With his skills, he would only cause trouble for her if something really happened.
Five minutester, Fang Xiaonuan returned. ¡°No, let¡¯s go to the next ce.¡±
Ji Wen continued to drive, while Fang Xiaonuan was responsible for getting out of the car to look for her. She was skilled in martial arts, so she did not have to worry. Just like that, the two of them searched Jing City for a whole hour.
Only then did Fang Xiaonuan realize how difficult it was to find someone who was intent on remaining hidden.
¡°Xiaoyu¡¯s sense of self-preservation is still very strong. She will not put herself in danger,¡± Ji Wen said to Fang Xiaonuan.
Of course, Fang Xiaonuan knew that. ¡°But I don¡¯t want to pass up dangerous ces. What if Xiaoyu is really there and we just happen to miss her?¡± she said.
Ji Wen knew what Fang Xiaonuan meant, so he did not say anything more and continued to y the role of a good driver.
On the way, Ji Lingchen called. ¡°Xiaonuan, one of the surveince cameras caught Xiaoyu walking in the direction of Fengyang District.¡±
Fengyang District? Fengyang Lake!
¡°I know where she is!¡± Fang Xiaonuan suddenly recalled a ce that Liu Siyu had often mentioned to her. ¡°Xiaowen, drive to Fengyang Lake!¡±
Ji Wen also thought of something. He immediately turned around and headed toward Fengyang District.
Fengyang District was originally a county under Jing City, but after the city expanded, it became a district of Jing city. Liu Siyu had once seen the school¡¯s brochure and said that the scenery there was not bad. She really wanted to go and see it. It was clearly in Jing City, but the three of them had never been there.
Now, she might have gone alone.
Ji Wen followed the navigation instructions as he drove. In the end, he drove through a small country road and finally arrived at Fengyang Lake.
Fang Xiaonuan alighted from the car with her phone and shone it around her, shouting, ¡°Xiaoyu!¡±
¡°Xiaoyu!¡± Ji Wen also shouted.
Their shouts woke up the fish in theke and the worms in the grass, but they did not get any response.
Fang Xiaonuan followed her instincts and walked along thekeside, shouting as she walked, ¡°Xiaoyu, where are you?¡±
Ji Wen took out his phone and shone it around to see if Liu Siyu was in the tall grass.
It waste and no one was here. By theke, just the two of them were there shouting ¡°Xiaoyu!¡±
The ground around theke was soaked. As the two walked along thekeside, the wet and sticky mud stuck to their shoes, and they could no longer move.
Fang Xiaonuan found arge rock and sat on it. She casually wiped the mud off the soles of her shoes with a leaf and continued walking.
The surface of theke was very calm. After walking for a long time, they suddenly heard a response. ¡°I¡¯m here.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan and Ji Wen looked at each other. That voice was Liu Siyu¡¯s!
The two of them were overjoyed and quickly went forward.
Chapter 297 - 297 Calling to Tell Him That She Was Safe
297 Calling to Tell Him That She Was Safe
After walking for a while, they finally saw Liu Siyu sitting on a big rock. She rested her chin on her hands and said gloomily, ¡°I didn¡¯t expect you two to find me all the way out here.¡±
The moment Fang Xiaonuan saw her, her heart finally felt at ease again. ¡°Siyu, you almost scared us to death!¡±
Liu Siyu said, ¡°I just wanted to be alone.¡± She felt conflicted and did not know how to face this. She hugged herself tightly and looked at the calmke.
¡°Xiaonuan, call my brother and pass me the phone. I¡¯ll let my brother know that I¡¯m safe.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan passed the phone over and asked, ¡°Where¡¯s your phone?¡±
Liu Siyu said angrily, ¡°Don¡¯t even mention it. Apple phones be stupid when they freeze. They can¡¯t be turned on when it¡¯s cold. It¡¯s so frustrating!¡± She had been so angry that she almost smashed her phone.
She had originally wanted to go to Fengyang Lake first and then let her family know that she was safe. However, she did not expect that her phone would freeze when she got here. She wanted to leave, but she could not. There were no taxis here, so she could not get a ride back. She had no choice but to put her phone in her arms to warm it up so she could turn it on.
Liu Siyu took Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s phone and dialed Liu Siyan¡¯s number easily.
¡°Xiaonuan!¡± Liu Siyan answered the call immediately. ¡°Xiaonuan, do you have any news about Xiaoyu? ¡±
¡°Brother, it¡¯s me,¡± Liu Siyu said.
¡°Liu Siyu! Where did you go? Are you trying to scare me to death? Dad was so scared that his blood pressure went up, and mom is about to lose her mind!¡± Liu Siyan could not help but shout at his sister.
Liu Siyu said, ¡°My phone is useless. I just wanted to sneak out. I wanted to contact you when I got here, but my phone got too cold and turned off. I couldn¡¯t contact you.¡± She did not mean to make her family anxious.
Liu Siyan could tell that his sister had not taken anything. He stopped the car. He was clearly angry, but his words made Liu Siyu feel love.
¡°Throw your phone away. I¡¯ll buy you a new one when youe back. This time, we¡¯ll buy one that¡¯s resistant to the cold, okay? ¡±
¡°Okay,¡± Liu Siyu replied, sobbing.
Liu Siyan knew that she was safe, and he could finally rx. ¡°Don¡¯t cry, where are you now? I¡¯ll go pick you up.¡±
Liu Siyu said, ¡°Brother, don¡¯te over. Let me be alone. Can you do that?¡±
Liu Siyan respected his sister¡¯s wishes and hung up the phone.
Liu Siyu returned the phone to Fang Xiaonuan. This time, Fang Xiaonuan did not take it back, but asked, ¡°Xiaoyu, are you willing to call my husband to let him know that you¡¯re safe?¡±
Liu Siyu was taken aback. Fang Xiaonuan did not force her, and she reached out to take back her phone.
But Liu Siyu did not hand it back immediately. She was subconsciously unwilling to give it back.
¡°When did you find out that I¡¯m Ji Xiaoyu?¡± Liu Siyu asked.
¡°That day in the ssroom, I found out that you sprained your ankle. When I asked you, you mentioned removing a scar. After that, I took you to the hospital to see Ji Wen, and then I stole your hair to do a DNA test. I¡¯m sorry, Xiaoyu. Actually, when I went to your house to see your childhood photos, I already suspected your identity.¡±
Liu Siyu took some time to think about it. She actually had not noticed that at all.
Ji Wen squatted by theke and scratched his head in frustration. His brows were furrowed. ¡°Is Liu Siyu really my aunt?¡±
Liu Siyu looked at her silly nephew. No wonder she liked him the moment she saw him. It was because they were rted by blood.
Liu Siyu said lightly, ¡°When you were young, you drank all the green tea and secretly peed in the bottle. Then, you tried to trick your grandfather into drinking it. In the end, you were beaten by your uncle, and your butt was so swollen that you could only sleep on your stomach. From then on, you never dared to pee in a drink bottle again.¡±
Ji Wen said, ¡°Only those in the Ji family know about this!¡±
¡°Actually,¡± Liu Siyu continued, ¡°I exposed you, and that¡¯s why you were beaten.¡±
Ji Wen said, ¡°F*ck! So, it was you who betrayed me! You were the one who asked me to give the urine bottle to Grandpa!¡±
¡°My dad,¡± Liu Siyu replied.
This incident was enough to prove Liu Siyu¡¯s identity.
Liu Siyu said, ¡°And when you were in your kindergarten years, you slept in a lot and always tried to avoid going. You pretended to have a fever and put the thermometer in warm water. Your mom saw that you had a fever of 42 degrees, but when she touched your head, she realized that it was not hot at all. In the end, your parents handed you over to my brother.¡±
¡°And then?¡± Fang Xiaonuan listened with great interest, especially curious about the ending. She knew that Ji Wen was mischievous when he was young, but she did not know that he was this mischievous. No wonder she felt that he always deserved a beating. It turned out that he had been like this since he was young!
Ji Wen¡¯s face turned red. ¡°Shut up! That¡¯s enough!¡±
Chapter 298 - 298 A Phone Call with Her Brother
298 A Phone Call with Her Brother
¡°Hurry up and continue. Xiaoyu, I want to hear it.¡± Fang Xiaonuan went over and climbed onto the rock with Liu Siyu.
¡°After that, my brother took him to the ssroom with his nket and let him sleep on the desk. Then, Xiaowen performed a live performance and let the maids dress him up for ss. Since then, he never dared to pretend to be sick and skip ss again.¡±
¡°Hahahaha!¡± Fang Xiaonuanughed hysterically. ¡°Is there any more?¡±
Liu Siyu also smiled. ¡°There are still many more stories, but¡ my memory isn¡¯t that clear.¡± As she said this, there was a trace of bitterness in her eyes.
Ji Wen squatted beside them and looked at the two girls. ¡°Both of you are my aunts now, but both of you belong to the same generation. How can I measure up?¡±
Ji Wen already got shocked by the news on the way here, but when he saw Liu Siyu and heard her say these things, he still found it unbelievable.
He had somehow be the nephew of his two good friends! He had encountered such an unlucky incident. This could happen to no one else!
¡°Xiaoyu, my grandfather said that he wanted you to be my girlfriend!¡±
¡°Nonsense!¡± Liu Siyu said.
¡°But my dad said I¡¯m not good enough for you,¡± Ji Wen said.
¡°Big brother has good taste!¡± Liu Siyu said.
¡°My mom likes you too,¡± Ji Wen said.
¡°Yeah, my sister-inw liked me a lot when I was little,¡± Liu Siyu said.
Feng Qi had been there when her mother-inw gave birth to a daughter. She was soft, obedient, and especially cute. However, her own child was a naughty boy who yed with mud!
Every time she saw Xiaoyu, she wanted to have a daughter too. At that time, she often pestered Mayor Ji to have a second child with her, and she almost went for artificial insemination. But in the end, her dream of having a daughter did note true.
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°It¡¯s no wonder that sister-inw treated me better than Ji Wen after I married into the Ji family. Those who don¡¯t know would think that I¡¯m sister-inw¡¯s child and that Ji Wen was picked up!¡±
Ji Wen said, ¡°My mom likes girls. If you were a man, do you think she¡¯d care about you?¡±
¡°If I were a man, would your uncle marry me?¡±
Ji Wen was speechless and fell silent.
Fang Xiaonuan and Liu Siyu continued their conversation.
Liu Siyu kept looking at theke and stayed quiet most of the time. She kept thinking about how her youngest brother protected her.
¡°Brother, I identally broke Daddy¡¯s cup,¡± she said.
Ji Lingchen cleaned up the mess on the ground, then patted his sister¡¯s head. ¡°If you give me a kiss, I¡¯ll say that I was the one who broke it.¡±
After she did that, Ji Lingchen took all the me.
¡°Brother, something bad has happened. I spilled Mommy¡¯s perfume.¡±
¡°It¡¯s alright, you have me!¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
¡°Brother, I don¡¯t like studying.¡±
¡°We¡¯ll study together, then I¡¯ll bring you out to y.¡±
¡°Brother, save me. I¡¯m so scared.¡±
Later, in order to protect his sister, Ji Lingchen got beaten until he was covered in blood. However, he still refused to let go because he had to protect his sister.
Afraid that she would not be able to find her brother after being taken away, Ji Xiaoyu bit her arm and endured the pain, leaving behind bite scars.
However, after that, her memory was jumbled up and she mistook Liu Siyan for her brother.
¡°Xiaonuan, is he especially worried about me? ¡± Liu Siyu asked.
¡°He¡¯s been worried about you for 15 years,¡± Fang Xiaonuan replied.
Liu Siyu looked at the phone in her hand and stared at the number. Her mind was filled with how well he used to treat her.
In the end, she still dialed Ji Lingchen¡¯s number.
¡°Hello, Xiaonuan, have you found Xiaoyu?¡± He picked up the call very quickly.
Liu Siyu was at a loss for words. She was so scared that she could not say a word.
¡°Hello?¡± Ji Lingchen said.
Liu Siyu opened her mouth, but no sound came out. Her tears suddenly gushed out.
At that moment, Ji Lingchen seemed to have realized something, and he fell silent too. After a while, Ji Lingchen asked, ¡°Xiaoyu, where are you?¡±
Liu Siyu said, ¡°Brother, I-I¡¯m¡¡± She was so excited that her whole body was trembling.
When Ji Lingchen heard her call him ¡°Brother¡±, his heart ached. He shut his eyes tightly and looked up, not letting his tears fall.
Fang Xiaonuan reached out to hug the girl beside her.
After a while, Liu Siyu said, ¡°I¡¯m at Fengyang Lake.¡±
When Ji Lingchen heard the location, he finally heaved a sigh of relief. He turned around so that no one could see him wiping away his tears with the back of his hand.
After hanging up, Fang Xiaonuan consoled Liu Siyu. She asked, ¡°What are you afraid of?¡±
¡°Xiaonuan, I¡¯m afraid I won¡¯t have a home,¡± Liu Siyu said.
Chapter 299 - 299 Reuniting
299 Reuniting
¡°Nonsense,¡± Fang Xiaonuan replied. ¡°Your parents knew you weren¡¯t their daughter from the start. They¡¯ve always treated you like their own daughter. In order to keep you, Mrs. Liu even wanted to give Yanyu Corporation to Ji Lingchen for free. Because in their hearts, you¡¯re more important to them. How could you not have a home?¡±
¡°The Ji family has been looking for you for 15 years, and they¡¯ve been waiting for you toe home for 15 years. Besides, you still have me. Didn¡¯t you say that best friends are family who won¡¯t be separated throughout their lives?¡±
¡°Yeah, there¡¯s still me! What are you afraid of?¡± Ji Wen agreed.
¡°You have so many family members who love you. Your happiness is twice that of others. What do you have to be afraid of?¡± Fang Xiaonuan said.
Liu Siyu said, ¡°But anyone would need some time to digest something like this, right?¡±
They knew she needed time and that¡¯s why everyone was giving her that.
Fang Xiaonuan put her arm around her friend¡¯s shoulder and looked into the distance. ¡°Xiaoyu,e back. The Ji family needs you.¡±
Ji Wen looked at theke, silently worried about his life in the future. His uncle was already tough enough to deal with, and now there was the violent female warrior, Fang Xiaonuan.
It seemed like God felt that his life was not exciting enough, so he gave him a biological aunt, and an aunt who had bullied him for many years.
¡°Aunt, can I move out?¡± Ji Wen asked. He felt that his status at home was even lower than that of a dog.
¡°In your dreams!¡± Fang Xiaonuan replied.
¡°Xiaonuan, how did Mom leave?¡± Liu Siyu asked.
She remembered her mother as someone who always smiled at her gently. She always dressed her up in all kinds of pretty little dresses. Why was she not here? She did not even get to see her onest time.
Fang Xiaonuan replied, ¡°A month after you went missing, Mom passed. Sister-inw told me that she was heartsick, and that there was no medicine that could cure it. But¡ Dad told me today that she left because she saw your ¡®corpse¡¯ with her own eyes and it was too much for her.¡±
Liu Siyu turned to look at her friend in surprise. Even though she could not see Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s face clearly, she could tell that she was sad. ¡°So, my mom died because of me.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan nodded her head solemnly. ¡°We¡¯ll only know the details after Dad and my husband go to the Lin family¡¯s house to confront them tomorrow. It¡¯splicated.¡±
Liu Siyu lowered her head in disbelief. ¡°Why is it like this?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan shook her head. She had only just found out that such aplicated matter had happened in the Ji family. Of course, she was the daughter-inw of the Ji family, so she would definitely help sort these things out. Although her husband was already investigating, she could not just stand by and watch.
¡°Xiaoyu, do you still remember why you fell into the sea?¡±
Before Liu Siyu could answer, Ji Wen suddenly interrupted, ¡°What? Xiaoyu, when did you fall into the sea?¡± He was now curious about everything he was hearing.
Liu Siyu said, ¡°Actually, I don¡¯t remember either. I only remember seeing somebody there. The person said that I had to die. Then, they threw me into the sea.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan was shocked, ¡°What? You were thrown into the sea?¡±
Liu Siyu nodded.
Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s brows were tightly furrowed. Killed?
¡°Xiaoyu, can you still remember what that person looked like?¡±
Liu Siyu shook her head. She had been young at that time. So many years had passed, and her memories had long faded. In addition, she had been too frightened, so many of her memories were jumbled up.
Fang Xiaonuan did not feel disappointed. She said in relief, ¡°The Liu family saved you, and I¡¯ve found you. You¡¯re my sister-inw, and Ji Wen is our nephew.¡±
Ji Wen looked at the calmke and forced himself to calm down. He felt like life was a y. He had to be calm.
The three of them stayed by theke for a long time. Fang Xiaonuan and Ji Wen apanied Liu Siyu and chatted with her to make her feel better.
It was only when Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s phone was about to run out of battery that the three of them used their phones to light their way and walked back.
However, when the three of them walked out of the muddykeside path, they were all shocked.
Old Master Ji was walking toward them using his cane. When he saw the little girl he had been thinking about day and night, he held back his tears.
Liu Siyu also saw her father, her eldest brother Ji Kangde, her second brother Ji Lingchen, her sister-inw Feng Qi, her parents, and her brother.
Liu Siyu¡¯s disappearance made Mrs. Liu understand that there was no turning back.
Mr. Liu consoled his wife for a long time and finally got her to ept their new reality.
On the other hand, Liu Siyan received a call from Ji Lingchen. He told him to pick his sister up at Fengyang Lake. Liu Siyan even brought his worried parents with him.
Chapter 300 - 300 The Most Difficult Choice
300 The Most Difficult Choice
By theke, all of Liu Siyu¡¯s family members were standing there waiting for her.
Fang Xiaonuan sensed her timidness, so she consoled her, ¡°Xiaoyu, stay strong. Everyone you see here loves you.¡±
Liu Siyu finally mustered up the courage to walk over to Old Master Ji. Before she could say anything, tears streamed from her eyes. ¡°Dad!¡± The moment she opened her mouth, her face was covered in tears.
Old Master Ji finally could not hold it in any longer, and his tears fell too. ¡°Xiaoyu, my child!¡± He finally managed to hold his younger daughter, and he was crying so hard that he could not speak. The heavens had yed a joke on him, but he was still lucky enough to find his daughter in this lifetime.
!!
Everyone in the Ji family was very excited, and tears welled up in their eyes. Only Ji Lingchen seemed to be relieved and he let her be. Under the moonlight, he turned and left, walking to the other side of the road. Then, he looked up at the sky tiredly. A huge weight was lifted off his chest.
His wife¡¯s eyes were on him.
Fang Xiaonuan also left the crowd and walked silently to her husband¡¯s side. She ced her small hand into her husband¡¯s palm.
Ji Lingchen felt her soft hand in his. Ji Lingchen clenched his fist and turned to look at his little wife who hade to apany him. He pulled her into his arms.
Fang Xiaonuan ¡°Hubby, I found Xiaoyu. From now on, I must be the top priority in your heart!¡±
¡°Alright!¡± Ji Lingchen agreed. He did not tell his wife that she would always be his top priority for the rest of his life.
On the first day of their reunion, Liu Siyu was faced with the most difficult decision in her life. Should she go back to the Ji family¡¯s home or the Liu family¡¯s home tonight?
She had just reunited with her family, but she could not bear to see her mother, whose eyes were red and swollen from crying, disappointed.
Liu Siyan could see his sister¡¯s dilemma, so he took the initiative to step forward and say, ¡°Go back to the Ji family¡¯s house. You¡¯ve just reunited, so you must have a lot to talk about.¡±
¡°Brother,¡± Liu Siyu looked at him with gratitude.
Liu Siyan saw the smile in his sister¡¯s eyes. He tried his best to suppress the sadness in his heart so that his sister could return to the Ji family with peace of mind.
Mr. Liu was also a reasonable person. He did not want to put his daughter in a difficult position. ¡°Go, don¡¯t feel guilty. Our door is always open for you. You will always be my daughter.¡±
Liu Siyu burst into tears again. She ran over and hugged him. ¡°Daddy.¡±
Mr. Liu patted his daughter¡¯s back. ¡°You¡¯re already a big girl. Don¡¯t cry all the time. Finding your family is a happy asion.¡±
Liu Siyu looked at her mother, whose hair was messy and whose eyes were red and swollen. She reached out to smooth her mother¡¯s hair down. ¡°Mom, I¡¯m sorry.¡±
Mrs. Liu wiped the tears from her face. When they parted, she hugged her daughter again. ¡°We have a lot of things to do tonight. You should go.¡±
The Liu family did not want her to feel sad and guilty, so they gave in.
In the end, Liu Siyu watched as the Liu family¡¯s car disappeared from sight, and then she got into the Ji family¡¯s car.
Fang Xiaonuan left in the same car as her husband. She sat in the front passenger seat, fastened her seatbelt, and waited for her ¡°personal driver¡±.
Feng Qi and her husband were also in the same car.
Liu Siyu and Old Master Ji were in the same car. Ji Wen was the only one who was ignored by everyone in the cold winter and left alone.
He hade with Fang Xiaonuan, but she had left with her husband.
Ji Wen could only start the car by himself and slowly follow the other cars.
When the three Liu family members arrived home, Mrs. Liu felt her daughter¡¯s absence. The huge vi was empty. She covered her face and cried in self-me, ¡°I¡¯m so selfish and evil. People like me deserve retribution!¡±
¡°Mom,¡± Liu Siyan consoled his mother, ¡°Xiaoyu wille back. Trust me.¡±
Mr. Liu gave his parents a call. ¡°Mom, Dad, I have something to tell you. You should be prepared.¡±
¡
Liu Siyu returned to the Ji family¡¯s residence although she had only left it not long ago.
Ji Lingchen brought her to a room with their mother¡¯s memorial tablet and ck and white photo.
Liu Siyu¡¯s tears gushed out again. She looked at her mother, who had been separated from her, and recalled her voice and smile. She offered incense to her mother and knelt in front of her mother¡¯s memorial tablet with Ji Lingchen.
¡°Mom, I¡¯ve brought Xiaoyu home.¡±
¡
All the lights in the Ji residence were lit, and the whole family was very happy.
Liu Siyu had just returned to the Ji family, and Feng Qi wanted to apany her. She turned to her husband and said, ¡°Hubby, it¡¯s Xiaoyu¡¯s first day at home, so she must be ufortable. I¡¯ll go apany her and chat with her.¡±
She walked to Liu Siyu¡¯s room and knocked on the door. ¡°Xiaoyu, can Ie in? It¡¯s your sister-inw.¡±
¡°Sister-inw,e in,¡± Liu Siyu said.
¡°Why?¡± Ji Wenined in a low voice. ¡°You¡¯ve never been so polite when you entered my room.¡±
Feng Qi pushed the door open and entered, ¡°Huh? Xiaonuan, Xiaowen, why are you both here?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan and Ji Wen were both in their pajamas. Ji Wen was sitting on a stool, while Fang Xiaonuan and Liu Siyu were sitting on the bed.
¡°Sister-inw,¡± Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°We¡¯re keeping Xiaoyupany because we were worried that she wouldn¡¯t be used to being home.¡±
Chapter 301 - 301 The Benefits of Marrying CEO Ji
301 The Benefits of Marrying CEO Ji
Feng Qi looked at the three of them. They probably did not need herpany.
¡°Since you¡¯re here, I¡¯ll go back to my room first. I was just here to see Xiaoyu.¡±
Then, she pointed at Ji Wen and said, ¡°Your aunt can apany your other aunt. Go back to your room and sleep.¡±
¡°Mom, I also need time to ept these things,¡± Ji Wen said.
!!
Feng Qi could not understand. What did this have to do with her son? Why did he need time?
Ji Wen looked at the friend he had known for nearly ten years. She had suddenly be his aunt. He was just as shocked as he was when he found out that Fang Xiaonuan had married his uncle. The most horrible thing was that the two of them were now calling him ¡°nephew¡±.
Liu Siyu said, ¡°I used to call you my nephew. Now you¡¯re really my nephew.¡±
Ji Wen was at a loss for words.
Therefore, he needed some time to calm down.
Fang Xiaonuan led Feng Qi away. She still had a lot of things that she needed Ji Wen to tell Liu Siyu. He was still of some use.
When Feng Qi returned to her room, Mayor Ji asked, ¡°Why did youe back?¡±
¡°Xiaonuan and Ji Wen are with her. If I¡¯m there, it¡¯ll be awkward for them. It¡¯s better to let the young people hang out together.¡±
That night, Ji Wen retold everything that had happened after Ji Xiaoyu had gone missing, ording to what he remembered.
Fang Xiaonuan put in a good word for her husband, ¡°My husband went through a lot of hardship to look for you. Thest time he went on a business trip, he actually went to look for you.¡±
¡°Yes,¡± Ji Wen added, ¡°In order to find you, my uncle even used marriage as a bargaining chip.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan was speechless. She turned to look at Ji Wen and narrowed her eyes. ¡°borate!¡±
Could it be that her marriage with her husband was a transaction?
¡°What?¡± Ji Wen asked. ¡°Didn¡¯t my uncle tell you?¡±
He suddenly felt a little guilty. If he said too much, his uncle wouldn¡¯t beat him to death, right?
¡°Hurry up and tell me, how was his marriage a bargaining chip?¡± Fang Xiaonuan asked.
¡°Yeah, yeah,¡± Liu Siyu said. ¡°Tell me, what do you mean by ¡®for me¡¯?¡±
Ji Wen swallowed, hesitating whether to say it or not. He was being interrogated by them, so he ended up telling the truth. ¡°My grandfather used information about you to trick my uncle into getting married. If he didn¡¯t get married, he would not get the information.¡±
¡°Before he met Fang Xiaonuan, my uncle had no intention of finding a girlfriend at all. He was consumed with finding you. So, in order to get information about you, he got married.¡±
¡°Xiaonuan, after all this, I¡¯m actually your matchmaker!¡± Liu Siyu said, trying to tter herself.
Fang Xiaonuan replied, ¡°You still have the cheek to say that? I¡¯ve even been jealous of you before. If my husband didn¡¯t say that ¡®Xiaoyu¡¯ is actually my sister-inw, I would¡¯ve thought he had an ex he couldn¡¯t get over. I would have chopped him up and fed him to the dogs!¡±
Liu Siyu said, ¡°Thank God my brother is quick with his words!¡±
It was quiet for a while. Fang Xiaonuan looked at her two good friends and suddenly said, ¡°Did you guys notice anything?¡± Her eyes flickered with a little excitement.
¡°What is it?¡± Liu Siyu and Ji Wen asked in unison.
¡°I am of a higher seniority than the both of you!¡± Fang Xiaonuan said proudly.
Even if she was of the same generation as her best friend, she still had to call her ¡°Sister-inw, ¡± and Ji Wen had it worse. He became her nephew.
Fang Xiaonuan suddenly felt that marrying Ji Lingchen was great. He had directly raised her seniority by quite a bit.
¡°I¡¯m going back to my roomter. I¡¯m going to give my husband a few good kisses!¡± Fang Xiaonuan said.
¡°Are you sure you cane back to my ce after kissing your husband?¡±
The married Xiaonuan immediately understood what her friend meant, and the two of them looked at each other in silence. ¡°Sister-inw, I¡¯m really worried that your husband won¡¯t be able to stand you in the future.¡±
The ¡°innocent¡± Ji Wen said, ¡°Two powerful females¡ I¡¯m leaving.¡±
Only the two best friends were left, so they did not joke around. Liu Siyu was lying on the bed and looking at the ceiling. ¡°Xiaonuan, if I choose to be Ji Xiaoyu, wouldn¡¯t it be too unfair to my parents?¡±
Hearing her words, Fang Xiaonuan understood her concerns. In her heart, she wanted to be Ji Xiaoyu, but she was afraid that the Liu family would think that she had no conscience. After painstakingly raising her for 15 years, she ended up leaving them for her biological parents.
¡°If this happened to me, I¡¯d be worried that my parents, who have raised me for 15 years, would be sad. I¡¯d be worried that if I received the Ji family¡¯s love, my rtionship with the Liu family would fade.¡±
¡°However, Xiaoyu, as a bystander, I don¡¯t think Mrs. Liu and Mr. Liu would think that way. They love you very much, and today, in order to not make you sad, they let you go back to the Ji family first. They really treat you like a pearl.¡±
Chapter 302 - 302 Ji Wen’s Status in the Family
302 Ji Wen¡¯s Status in the Family
Fang Xiaonuan continued, ¡°Mrs. Liu knelt before my husband yesterday because of you. She doesn¡¯t even want thepany anymore. She only wants you. I was especially touched at that time. Think about it. You two are not rted by blood, but she was willing to give up everything for you.¡±
¡°And your father and brother, they¡¯ve been secretly meeting my husband many times. They were afraid that you won¡¯t be able to ept it in such a short time, so they hoped that my husband could give you more time. All of them love you, and they don¡¯t ask for anything in return. As long as you¡¯re happy, even if you¡¯re Ji Xiaoyu, they¡¯ll always treat you as their own daughter!¡±
¡°Besides, you¡¯re not a heartless person. Even if you knew that you were Ji Xiaoyu, you didn¡¯t immediatelye to acknowledge that, but instead wanted to refuse. You clearly knew how powerful the Ji family was. Look at me, even if I was forced to marry someone, I didn¡¯t dare to break off the engagement, but you refused without hesitation.¡±
¡°This means that your love for them is beyond all blood ties. They will feel your love, so what you¡¯re worried about will not happen.¡±
Upon hearing this, Liu Siyu took a deep breath. ¡°Is this our tribtion year?¡±
Of the two friends, one was forced to marry, while the other found out that she was not biologically rted to her family.
However, Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°I don¡¯t think that these are bad things. Think about me, I¡¯ve been single for so many years. If you expect me to fall in love on my own, it¡¯ll probably be difficult for me to get married in this life. In the end, I didn¡¯t get into a rtionship and got married first. My ideal type is someone rich and handsome. Where else can I find such a good man?¡± Of course, being in bed with him was a little difficult.
¡°And you, you have so many family members all of a sudden, and they all dote on you so much. You¡¯re so blessed! Besides, isn¡¯t being Ji Wen¡¯s aunt a good thing?¡±
¡°Don¡¯t you pity him a little?¡± Liu Siyu asked.
Fang Xiaonuan shook her head. ¡°Why? I¡¯m his aunt. Bullying him at home feels great.¡±
Liu Siyu asked in confusion, ¡°You¡¯re also bullying him at home? Won¡¯t sister-inw and my eldest brother be unhappy?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan shook her head again. ¡°Xiaoyu, you still don¡¯t know about Ji Wen¡¯s status in the family. When you rejoin the Ji family, you¡¯ll understand why Xiaowen is so eager to move out and live by himself.¡±
Liu Siyu did not know that Ji Wen was being bullied at home, so she asked, ¡°Isn¡¯t he the only child of the Ji family? And the young master of the Ji family?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°That¡¯s right. He¡¯s the young master of the Ji family. Before I joined the family, Ji Wen was like the king of the Ji family. But ever since I entered the family, perhaps I jinxed him or something, but Ji Wen¡¯s status in the family has be lower. Later on, even Dad started smacking him around.¡±
Liu Siyu raised her eyebrows and thought about it. ¡°Before you married into the family, my second brother didn¡¯t get married, and the Ji family still needed Ji Wen to continue the family line, so they spoiled him. Now that you¡¯ve married into the family, you¡¯ll have another child in a few years. Ji Wen won¡¯t be the only child, so they don¡¯t have to spoil him anymore.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan pondered for a moment. ¡°What you said makes sense. No wonder you¡¯re a member of the Ji family. You know them too well.¡±
¡°If Ji Wen had gotten married earlier and had a child, would his status in the Ji family have risen and then stabilized?¡± Fang Xiaonuan asked after much thought.
Liu Siyu shook her head. ¡°That would only make his status worse. They would have a great grandson. Who would care about Ji Wen then?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°That makes a lot of sense!¡±
At that moment, Fang Xiaonuan really wanted to remind Ji Wen to get married a littleter. He would have a better time that way.
The next day, a magical scene yed out in the living room of the Ji family.
Fang Xiaonuan, Liu Siyu, and Ji Wen sat at the dining table and ate as usual.
Old Master Ji, Mayor Ji, Feng Qi, and the maids all looked at Liu Siyu.
Old Master Ji did not sleep at allst night. He got up early and went to the front door. When he saw that his daughter¡¯s shoes were still there, he heaved a sigh of relief. He was afraid that his daughter would be gone when he woke up.
Feng Qi and Mayor Ji looked at Liu Siyu, thinking about how she looked like when she was young.
Ji Lingchen, on the other hand, was at peace. He only had eyes for his little wife. As he watched her gobble down the food, he reminded her, ¡°Today is the 14th.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan, who was eating happily, asked with a confused expression, ¡°What¡¯s on the 14th?¡±
With his family around, Ji Lingchen chose to say less. He took the crab from Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s hands and gave her some vegetables.
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°Hubby, are you abusing me? You¡¯re not letting me eat?¡±
Ji Lingchen patted Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s stomach and said, ¡°Do you understand?¡±
Only then did Fang Xiaonuan remember that her period was near. However, she thought about it and realized that there was still time. She said, ¡°There are still four days!¡±
¡°When the pain is unbearable, you¡¯ll start swearing again,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
Chapter 303 - 303 A Terrifying Habit
303 A Terrifying Habit
Fang Xiaonuan pursed her lips. She watched the crab she had longed for move further and further away from her.
The Ji family¡¯s breakfast was usually quite normal. Although there were basically no repeated dishes for a week, there weren¡¯t too many varieties. Today, the meal was surprisingly sumptuous, and the table was full.
This was all because of Old Master Ji¡¯s excitement. Earlier this morning, he had asked the kitchen to start cooking all kinds of dishes. He knew that he would not be able to finish them all, but he still asked for a lot.
That was why Fang Xiaonuan could have mitten crab so early in the morning. However, crabs were not good to have before her period. This dietary restriction put her in a bad mood instantly.
Throughout the entire breakfast, only Ji Wen had the most enjoyable and satisfying meal.
After the meal, it was time to go to school. Ji Lingchen drove the three of them personally. Old Master Ji wanted to go with them so that he could spend more time with his daughter on the way.
¡°Dad, there¡¯s no more space in the car,¡± Fang Xiaonuan said.
Old Master Ji pointed at Ji Wen and tried to chase him away, saying, ¡± Xiaowen, you can drive yourself. Give up your seat.¡±
Liu Siyu looked at her nephew, who always got bullied. She did not have to be here for long at all. She could already sense Ji Wen¡¯s status in the family within minutes.
Ji Wen patted the middle seat at the back and said, ¡°You can sit here, right? We can all squeeze in.¡±
Old Master Ji squeezed into the car. Fang Xiaonuan had wanted to let Old Master Ji sit in the front seat, but he wanted to sit with his daughter instead of his youngest son. They would be closer and he would get to talk with her more.
¡°Xiaoyu, we¡¯ve actually met before,¡± said Old Master Ji. ¡°Do you still remember how fierce your sister-inw was when she was fighting? She didn¡¯t look like a girl at all. I saw you then. You scratched another girl¡¯s face and kicked another girl in the stomach. It looked like you used a lot of force.¡± He did not remember good things at all, only bad things.
Liu Siyu said, ¡°Dad, I¡¯m actually ady. That was an ident.¡±
Old Master Ji knew the truth. To be able to be best friends with his youngest daughter-inw, they must be alike. Plus, she was his daughter.
¡°I just wanted to say that you guys fought well. Your skills are really not bad!¡±
Liu Siyu was speechless.
Fang Xiaonuan was also at a loss for words.
When they were at a red light, Fang Xiaonuan asked her husband, ¡°Hubby, are you going to the Lin family¡¯s house after sending us off?¡±
¡°Leave that business to the adults. Study hard at school.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°Hubby, I just want to fight by our side. If the Lin family doesn¡¯t cooperate, just say the word and I¡¯ll be there. I guarantee that I can use my fists to make them cooperate!¡±
Ji Lingchen directly exposed what his wife was thinking. ¡°Xiaonuan, do you want to be my champion or do you want to personally eliminate your love rival?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan said coquettishly, ¡°These two matters don¡¯t conflict with each other.¡±
However, Ji Lingchen refused to let her go. Who knew what they would say today? He felt that there were many things that were not suitable for his little wife to hear. ¡°How many times have you skipped sses this semester? It¡¯ll be embarrassing if you fail the exam.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan did not give up and continued to pester him. However, Ji Lingchen was adamant and refused to let her go. At the school gate, Fang Xiaonuan had no choice but to get out of the car with her books.
Ji Wen also got out of the car, and Liu Siyu was thest to get out. As soon as she got out of the car, she looked up and saw her brother waiting for her at his usual spot.
¡°Brother!¡± Liu Siyu shouted. Then she ran in Liu Siyan¡¯s direction.
Liu Siyan had wanted to go straight to the police station when he left the house, but somehow, he had driven to the school gate.
After the car stopped, he realized that the familiar figure was no longer in the front passenger seat. He smiled bitterly. This was a terrifying force of habit. He had wanted to go to the ssroom to see if he could see his sister, but he realized that his sister had not arrived yet, so he turned back and was ready to leave.
He was about to get into the car when he heard a car engine turn off. He looked up and saw a familiar figure.
Old Master Ji and Ji Lingchen watched her back as she ran away, both silent. Liu Siyu seemed very ufortable with them, but she was very rxed and even happy to see anyone from the Liu family.
She ran to Liu Siyan and asked pitifully, ¡°Brother, why didn¡¯t you reply to my messages?¡±
¡°I was busy,¡± Liu Siyan said perfunctorily. ¡°Why were you still awake at 4 in the morning?¡± In fact, the Liu family was in a mess yesterday. Their grandparents finally found out the truth about their granddaughter and drove home from the hospital in the middle of the night. They cried and made a scene, so he did not have time to look at his phone.
When he saw his sister¡¯s message, it was already morning. He looked at the timestamp of his sister¡¯s message. She had sent the message past 4 in the morning. He also wanted to reply, but he did not know what to say. In the end, he did not reply.
Liu Siyu said, ¡°I couldn¡¯t sleep. I miss you.¡±
Chapter 304 - 304 Crime Scene
304 Crime Scene
Liu Siyan pinched his sister¡¯s face and said gently, ¡°Go to ss. I have to go to the police station.¡±
Liu Siyu, however, held her brother¡¯s arm and refused to let him go. ¡°Brother, how are Mom and Dad?¡±
Liu Siyan said, ¡°Listen up, don¡¯t worry. When you¡¯re ready to change your name back to Ji Xiaoyu, you cane home. We can have dinner together.¡±
When Liu Siyu heard this, tears fell from her eyes. She did not want to change her name.
!!
Liu Siyan looked at his sister¡¯s teary eyes and gently wiped the corners of her eyes. ¡°You¡¯d just being home for a meal, not a farewell meal. What are you crying for? Your eyes are swollen, and you look like you haven¡¯t slept. Hurry up and go to ss.¡±
With that, he nced at Fang Xiaonuan. Fang Xiaonuan understood and quickly pulled Liu Siyu away. ¡°You¡¯re going to bete. Don¡¯t cry. Your brother won¡¯t be able to leave.¡±
After that, she pulled Liu Siyu onto campus, and Ji Wen followed behind them.
Ji Lingchen and Old Master Ji also got out of the car.
¡°Don¡¯t worry,¡± Liu Siyan said. ¡°Our family won¡¯t force Xiaoyu. You can change her name back. If she¡¯s not willing to, we won¡¯t cancel anything.¡± They wanted Liu Siyu¡¯s name to live forever.
Ji Lingchen thanked him, and Old Master Ji wanted to find an opportunity to express his gratitude to the Liu family.
However, Liu Siyan refused. He said that his grandparents had found out the truth and had been making a fuss at home, so it was best not to let Xiaoyu return to the Liu house for the next few days.
Ji Lingchen agreed.
Liu Siyan went back to the police station, while Old Master Ji and his son went to work. Mayor Ji began to investigate his sister¡¯s case.
Ji Lingchen brought his father to the Lin family¡¯s home.
¡°Who are you talking about?¡± Mr. Lin was at home, and he could not believe what the maid had said.
¡°It¡¯s CEO Ji and Old Master Ji,¡± the maid replied.
¡°Please invite them in,¡± Mr. Lin said, overjoyed.
When Madam Lin heard that they were here, she quickly asked the maid to help her daughter dress up.
Lin Rou knew that Ji Lingchen had arrived, so she immediately got out of bed to wash up and put on makeup.
In the living room, the father and son were already sitting on the sofa. Their expressions were cold, while the Lin family waited on them in fear.
¡°Mr. Lin, I just heard from my father that my sister passed away fifteen years ago. You were the one who found her body. Is that true?¡±
Mr. Lin nodded slowly, ¡°That¡¯s right, Xiaoyu looked so pitiful. I couldn¡¯t bear to see it. It¡¯s been so long, and the dead can¡¯t be brought back to life. You guys shouldn¡¯t be too hung up on what happened in the past.¡±
¡°Where did you find her?¡± Ji Lingchen sneered. ¡°What was the cause of death? Howe we sent so many people to find her and used so many connections, but still could not find her? Meanwhile, you found her so easily?¡±
¡°Lingchen, you¡¯re here.¡± Lin Rou, who was all dressed up, quickly ran down the stairs.
Seeing his daughter, Mr. Lin quickly changed the topic, ¡°Xiaorou, go and pour some tea for CEO Ji.¡±
Lin Rou walked over and tried to pour some tea for Ji Lingchen, but he quickly covered the mouth of the cup. ¡°No need.¡±
¡°Lingchen, you and your father rarely visit. You must have a cup of tea. Do you not like to drink tea? How about coffee? I¡¯ll go make you a cup now.¡± Lin Rou was about to go to the kitchen.
Ji Lingchen furrowed his brows, his eyes filled with disgust. ¡°My wife gets jealous easily and likes to hit people. If you don¡¯t want to be pped, please stay away from me.¡±
Lin Rou¡¯s expression froze as she recalled the time Fang Xiaonuan pped her.
Mr. Lin quickly spoke up for his daughter, ¡°CEO Ji, Rou ¡®er¡¡±
Ji Lingchen was not in the mood to listen to this nonsense. He interrupted, saying, ¡°Mr. Lin, don¡¯t say such meaningless things. Where did you find my sister? How did she die? And how did you find her?¡±
This time, he had to find out the truth about what happened. If the Lin family really had something to do with this, he would not let them go!
Mr. Lin hated Ji Lingchen¡¯s high and mighty attitude, but he did not dare to offend him, so he said, ¡°I found her body in the grass.¡±
¡°I want to know the exact location,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
Mr. Lin looked at their serious expressions and finally realized what had happened. He could not help but feel a little nervous. Why would they suddenly ask about what happened in the past?
In the end, after Ji Lingchen¡¯s probing, Mr. Lin brought the two of them to the ce where Ji Xiaoyu¡¯s ¡°body¡± was found.
Ji Lingchen looked at the crime scene that had turned into a paved road and asked, ¡°What was the cause of my sister¡¯s death?¡±
¡°The body had been defiled by a homeless man,¡± Mr. Lin said.
Ji Lingchen turned to look at the guilty-looking Mr. Lin. ¡°Who bribed you and made you fake the certificate?¡±
¡°What?¡± Mr. Lin¡¯s pupils contracted, and he looked up in fear. His eyes met Ji Lingchen¡¯s sharp gaze, and his heart started racing. ¡°CEO Ji, what do you mean by that?¡±
Chapter 305 - 305 A Clue
305 A Clue
¡°The Ji family sent so many people to search around the river, but they couldn¡¯t find any trace of Xiaoyu. Yet, you managed to find her. Who told you about this ce?¡± Ji Lingchen asked.
¡°CEO Ji, don¡¯t spout nonsense. I didn¡¯t harm Xiaoyu. If I could have saved either one of you, I would¡¯ve. If I could¡¯ve saved you both, you¡¯d be especially grateful to me. Obviously, I would¡¯ve saved her if I could. It was a coincidence that I found her body. I can¡¯t exin it, but it¡¯s the truth.¡±
¡°When did I say you harmed Xiaoyu?¡±
Mr. Lin was at a loss for words.
!!
Ji Lingchen continued, ¡°And did you know? Xiaoyu is not dead.¡±
¡°That¡¯s impossible!¡± Mr. Lin said in disbelief.
¡°How can you be so sure?¡± Ji Lingchen¡¯s gaze darkened.
Mr. Lin¡¯s heart skipped a beat and he fell silent.
Old Master Ji finally could not take it anymore. He stepped forward and pped Mr. Lin. ¡°Hurry up and tell me!¡±
Mr. Lin said, ¡°I¡ I found the child¡¯s body and called the police. I don¡¯t know who she is. The forensic doctor identified her as Xiaoyu.¡±
He had deliberately led the case to that forensic doctor because the forensic doctor who had done the blood test had gone missing.
Mayor Ji had also seen the case file. The forensic doctor surnamed Liu resigned after testing the blood of ¡± Xiaoyu¡¯s ¡± body. There was no news about it until today. The Ji family was at a dead end.
That night, Ji Lingchen went to pick up the three students and bring them home. When they reached home, the first thing Fang Xiaonuan did was drag her husband back to the bedroom. She sniffed and looked at his body, wanting to see if there were any lipstick marks on his clothes or whether he smelled like perfume.
Ji Lingchen pulled his little wife over. ¡°There¡¯s nothing. Women can¡¯t evene close to me.¡±
Only then did Fang Xiaonuan let her husband off and asked, ¡°Hubby, did you learn anything from the Lin family today?¡±
Ji Lingchen shook his head. ¡°I didn¡¯t manage to find out anything. Did Xiaoyu mention anything about what happened back then?¡±
¡°She did.¡± Fang Xiaonuan repeated what her friend had told her to her husband.
Ji Lingchen fell silent. Fang Xiaonuan knew that her husband was thinking, so she did not disturb him and went to wash up.
Meanwhile, Liu Siyu had been living with the Ji family for three days. Old Master Ji asked his daughter, ¡°Xiaoyu, are you willing to restore your old identity as Ji Xiaoyu?¡±
Liu Siyu looked at her cautious father and felt sad. She said, ¡°I¡¯m willing to, but can I go home first?¡±
¡°Hahahaha!¡± Old Master Jiughed out loud. ¡°Okay, okay, I will send you home.¡±
¡°I want to go back by myself,¡± Liu Siyu said.
After school, the Ji family did not interfere with wherever Liu Siyu wanted to go. She said goodbye to her friend and went to the police station.
¡°Brother.¡±
Liu Siyan saw his sister the moment he got off work. ¡°Xiaoyu, what are you doing here? Did the Ji family bully you? Or are you not used to it? Did you suffer?¡±
Liu Siyu smiled and held Liu Siyan¡¯s arm. She leaned on his shoulder and said, ¡°My brother has always been the one to pick me up from school since I was young. I want to pick you up today.¡±
Liu Siyan looked at his younger sister, who had suddenly be obedient, and asked, ¡°Do you want to change your name back to Ji Xiaoyu?¡±
Liu Siyu¡¯s expression darkened and she bit her lip. ¡°Brother, are you angry?¡±
¡°Why would I be? ¡± Liu Siyan said. ¡°I¡¯ll never be angry with you.¡±
The two of them went to the market. Liu Siyan said that they had to eat dumplings at the reunion, so the two of them bought meat filling and vegetables.
On the way back from buying groceries, Liu Siyu asked, ¡°Brother, do Grandpa and Grandma know?¡±
¡°Yeah,¡± Liu Siyan said. ¡°It¡¯s better if you don¡¯t see them for now. Otherwise, they¡¯ll be too agitated.¡±
Liu Siyu lowered her head. ¡°Do they hate me?¡± she asked. ¡°Do you hate me?¡±
¡°No, they just think that you¡¯re Liu Siyu. Grandma said that you¡¯re as beautiful as she was when she was young, and that she knew you¡¯re her granddaughter. Grandpa also said that he watched you grow up, so he can¡¯t be wrong. There¡¯s no way you¡¯re from the Ji family.¡±
Hearing this, Liu Siyu felt less guilty.
When she got home, Mrs. Liu and Mr. Liu were not home yet. The brother and sister were busy making dumplings in the kitchen. Liu Siyu began to cry as soon as she started cutting scallions. ¡°Brother, it¡¯s hurting my eyes.¡±
Liu Siyan quickly asked his sister to leave. Then, he took care of all the work.
The moment Mrs. Liu got home, she saw her daughter rubbing her eyes. ¡°Xiaoyu, you¡¯re back.¡±
¡°Mom, I¡¯m back.¡± Then, Liu Siyu hugged her mother and said, ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Mom. I¡¯m sorry I¡¯mte.¡±
Mrs. Liu cried tears of joy. After a few words, Mrs. Liu went into the kitchen to take over the work of making dumplings. But Liu Siyu and Liu Siyan did not leave. The three of them made dumplings together, talking andughing.
Mr. Liu had also returned home. When he saw his wife and the two kids in the kitchen, he quickly took off his jacket and rolled up his sleeves.
The family spent a long time in the kitchen making dumplings. No one asked about their daughter¡¯s life in the Ji family. It was like nothing had changed.
¡
Chapter 306 - 306 Restored Identity
306 Restored Identity
At the Ji residence, Old Master Ji saw that it was already past eight in the evening and wanted to call his daughter, but Fang Xiaonuan took away his phone.
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°Dad, give them some time. You¡¯re too anxious to call them now.¡±
The others also supported what Fang Xiaonuan said and did not allow Old Master Ji to make the call.
Old Master Ji mumbled, ¡°I just miss her¡¡±
Fang Xiaonuan replied, ¡°Even so, you have to bear with it.¡±
At around nine o¡¯clock, Liu Siyu called home. She knew that her old father would not be able to sleep in peace if he did not hear from her.
The two of them talked for a while before hanging up. However, in the end, Old Master Ji¡¯s phone was still confiscated by Ji Lingchen because Fang Xiaonuan had told on him. She told her husband that Old Master Ji had been ying with his phone in the middle of the night.
Old Master Ji cursed and swore at his second son. He was already thinking about how to send him back to Spirit Creek Vi.
In the Liu family¡¯s home, Liu Siyu chatted with her parents untilte at night. She could not tell her parents about restoring her identity, so she did not say anything about that.
¡°When will you restore your identity?¡± Mrs. Liu asked directly.
¡°Mom, are you angry?¡± she asked.
Mrs. Liu shook her head. She had already thought it through and would not burden her daughter.
In the end, Liu Siyu decided to change her identity tomorrow.
Mrs. Liu looked at her daughter. ¡°This must be fate, Xiaoyu. In my heart, you will always be my Siyu. If you can¡¯t get used to living with the Ji family, you cane back anytime.¡±
Liu Siyu nodded. From now on, she had two families; two families who loved her.
The next day, Ji Lingchen personally came to pick Liu Siyu up. Liu Siyan took out his household register. He looked at Liu Siyu¡¯s name and was stunned for a long time.
After Ji Lingchen left with Liu Siyu, the Liu couple cried for a long time.
She changed her name back to Ji Xiaoyu. She started crying as soon as she got into the car. She had been Liu Siyu for fifteen years, and now she had changed her identity so easily.
When the car stopped, Ji Xiaoyu saw that they had returned to the Liu residence. She turned to look at Ji Lingchen. ¡°Brother?¡±
¡°There¡¯s no rush to celebrate at home. I think you¡¯d rathere back here now.¡±
Ji Xiaoyu cried again.
¡°Hurry up and go,¡± Ji Lingchen said.
¡°What about Dad and our big brother?¡± Ji Xiaoyu asked worriedly.
Ji Lingchen said, ¡°I¡¯ve been able to help you solve everything since you were young. I can still do it now. Just do what you want to do. Leave the rest to me.¡±
Ji Xiaoyu cried as she got out of the car. After watching Ji Lingchen leave, she took out her keys and entered the house, but there was no one at home.
After a while, they came back. It turned out that they had gone to cancel their daughter¡¯s ounts. They saw the girl on the sofa as soon as they entered the door.
¡°Xiaoyu?¡±
¡°Mom!¡± Ji Xiaoyu cried as she ran to her parents and brother.
¡°Why did youe back?¡±
¡°My brother sent me back here. He knows that I want to be with you guys more right now,¡± Ji Xiaoyu replied.
¡
After Ji Lingchen returned home and saw the lively setup in the house, he immediately asked the servants to clean it up.
Old Master Ji saw that his second son was alone and asked in dissatisfaction, ¡°Where¡¯s your sister?¡±
¡°I¡¯ve sent her back to the Liu family¡¯s house.¡±
Old Master Ji raised his walking stick to hit his son.
¡°Do you want her to cry while celebrating with us, or do you want her to go back to the Liu family happily?¡±
Old Master Ji fell silent.
The Ji family¡¯s celebrations had yet to begin, but it was already over. Then, he called Ji Xiaoyu. ¡°Xiaoyu, have you eaten yet?¡±
¡°Dad, I was just about to eat. What about you?¡±
Old Master Ji said, ¡°I¡¯ve finished eating. I¡¯m fine. I just wanted to tell you to have fun at the Liu family¡¯s house and spend more time with your parents. You don¡¯t have to rush back. The Ji family¡¯s door will always be open for you.¡±
Ji Xiaoyu was silent for a moment, then agreed, ¡°I know, Dad.¡±
She finally smiled, relieved.
The Ji family and the Liu family hade to an agreement that Ji Xiaoyu could live wherever she wanted.
The only people who disagreed with this arrangement were the grandparents from the Liu family. When they were in the hospital for treatment, they found out that their granddaughter had gone to the Ji family¡¯s house. They were so angry that they returned to their hometown overnight. For the past few days, the Liu family had been trying to persuade the two elders toe back.
Ji Xiaoyu called her grandparents. ¡°Grandpa, Grandma,e back to Jing City. No matter where I go, I¡¯ll always be your granddaughter!¡±
Her grandma said, ¡°Go and tell the Ji family that they were mistaken. You look just like me when I was young. Why else would you be so beautiful? You¡¯re my granddaughter!¡±
¡°Xiaoyu,¡± her grandpa said, ¡°Listen to me. Don¡¯t acknowledge the Ji family!¡±
Ji Xiaoyu replied weakly, ¡°But I¡¯ve already changed my name back to¡¡±
Due to this, they got angry enough toe back to Jing City.
¡°Xiaoyu,¡± her grandma said. ¡°If you really want to acknowledge the Ji family, that¡¯s fine too. But your grandfather and I must meet the Ji family and see what kind of family dares to steal our granddaughter!¡±
Chapter 307 - 307 Visiting
307 Visiting
When the two elders of the Liu family saw the grand gate and the carvings on it, they were stunned. The people who lived on thisnd must be quite rich.
Ji Xiaoyu¡¯s grandpa, ¡°Granddaughter, how much does one square meter of this neighborhood cost? Over ten thousand?¡±
¡°Grandpa, you¡¯re not looking at the neighborhood. You¡¯re looking at the Ji family¡¯s¡¡± Ji Xiaoyu started saying.
Her grandfather was at a loss for words.
The helper hurriedly came out to wee her when she arrived.
Old Master Ji knew that the Liu family wasing and had already informed his daughter-inw, ¡°Xiaonuan, there will be guestsingter. You and Lingchen have to take care of my pride. Don¡¯t scold me in front of the guests!¡±
Fang Xiaonuan found Old Master Ji adorable. ¡°Dad, do I look like someone who doesn¡¯t have good judgment? I won¡¯t say anything bad about you in front of the guests. We can talk behind closed doors, but since the guests are here, we¡¯ll definitely be friendly. Don¡¯t worry, Dad. I¡¯ll take care of your pride!¡±
Old Master Ji was relieved to hear this.
The two elders of the Liu family entered the house, and Ji Xiaoyu began to introduce them.
¡°Are you sure my granddaughter is your biological daughter?¡± her grandmother asked Old Master Ji. ¡°Why don¡¯t you check again? I think your family must have made a mistake.¡±
¡°There¡¯s no need for that,¡± Old Master Ji replied. ¡°I know my daughter.¡±
¡°What if you¡¯re wrong?¡±
¡°That¡¯s impossible,¡± Old Master Ji said. ¡°Her eyes are the same as her mother¡¯s.¡±
¡°My granddaughter had stic surgery!¡± her grandfather said.
Ji Xiaoyu was speechless. She did not have stic surgery!
¡°stic surgery can¡¯t change her blood type,¡± Old Master Ji said. ¡°My family has already done a blood test. She¡¯s my daughter!¡±
Ji Xiaoyu¡¯s grandma looked around and turned to ask her daughter-inw in a low voice, ¡°What does the Ji family do? They seem to be quite rich!¡±
¡°Xiaoyu¡¯s elder brother is the mayor of Jing City, and his second brother is a very powerful man in the business world, Ji Lingchen,¡± Mrs. Liu exined awkwardly.
The grandmother had never heard of Ji Lingchen, so she asked, ¡°In other words, the Ji family is doing quite well?¡±
¡°Yes, much better than we are.¡± Mrs. Liu nodded.
Ji Xiaoyu¡¯s grandma was relieved. ¡°As long as she¡¯s not from a poor family¡ Otherwise, I¡¯m afraid my granddaughter won¡¯t be able to adapt.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan and Ji Wen also put in a good word for them.
The grandma¡¯s eyes lit up when she saw Fang Xiaonuan. ¡°Oh, this child is pretty. She¡¯s as good-looking as Xiaoyu.¡±
¡°Yes, she¡¯s Xiaonuan, Xiaoyu¡¯s best friend,¡± said Mrs. Liu with a smile.
¡°Oh, so this is Xiaonuan. I heard from Xiaoyu that she¡¯s also a member of the Ji family?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan was the Ji family¡¯s daughter-inw, so she was naturally a member of the Ji family. She nodded. ¡°Yes, grandma. I¡¯m also a member of the Ji family.¡±
¡°Xiaonuan, how old are you today? Do you have a partner? If you don¡¯t, what do you think of my eldest grandson? He¡¯s the captain of the police station. He is energetic and has a stable job.¡± She was trying to set Fang Xiaonuan up with her grandson.
¡°Mom, stop trying to y matchmaker. Xiaonuan is already married. She¡¯s the Ji family¡¯s daughter-inw, and that man over there is her husband.¡± Mrs. Liu quickly interrupted her mother and pointed at Ji Lingchen.
¡°Ah? They¡¯re married?¡± She looked at Fang Xiaonuan in surprise. ¡°Oh, you¡¯re not a daughter of the Ji family!¡±
¡°You can say that I¡¯m their half-daughter! The Ji family is my husband¡¯s family.¡±
Ji Lingchen happened to look over. He was originally quite grateful to the Liu family, but what did they mean by introducing a boyfriend to his wife?
Looking at his little wife¡¯s delicate appearance, he realized why they had misunderstood. She looked too much like a child. However, if they had a child in the future, people would not think that he was her younger brother, right? CEO Ji, who had always been calm and collected, was starting to get upset.
The two elders of the Liu family were slightly relieved when they saw the Ji family¡¯s living conditions. The Ji family was also very touched when they knew how much the Liu family doted on Ji Xiaoyu.
During lunch, Old Master Ji opened a bottle of good wine. He did not drink much anymore, but he had to drink to his heart¡¯s content today!
As the two families drank, they talked about the subject at hand and both families epted their current rtionship.
Ji Xiaoyu returned with the Liu family, but she only stayed for a day before being driven back to the Ji family. First, it was because she was going to start school. Second, her grandparents had to be treated, and her parents had to take turns apanying them. The new year wasing, and the crime rate was rising. Her brother was busy and worried about her being alone, so he let her return to the Ji family¡¯s home. In this regard, Old Master Ji felt that the Liu family¡¯s actions were in line with his intentions.
A semester passed by quickly. Ji Xiaoyu had gotten used to running around and living with two families. She enjoyed their love. Fang Xiaonuan had alsopletely gotten used to her married life, and every day was very sweet.
The three students heaved a sigh of relief when the final exam was over. Thanks to her husband¡¯s tutge, Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s reputation as the principal did not suffer. After finishing herst subject, she saw her husband waiting for her outside the ssroom. Liu Siyan was standing beside him.
Chapter 308 - 308 Something Happened to Ji Wen
308 Something Happened to Ji Wen
¡°The Lin Group can¡¯t be as clean as they look,¡± Liu Siyan said to Ji Lingchen. ¡°The more beautiful their ounts are, the more suspicious they seem.¡±
Ji Lingchen said, ¡°It¡¯s not convenient for me to deal with these things, so I¡¯ll send Ji Wen to the ck teahouse to investigate some things. On the surface, the ck teahouse is a teahouse that the Lin family has invested in, but do you know who is actually in charge?¡±
Liu Siyan shook his head.
¡°West,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
He only said one word, but he knew Liu Siyan would understand.
At this moment, two figures suddenly ran to the two of them.
¡°Hubby!¡± Fang Xiaonuan threw herself into her husband¡¯s arms. ¡°Hubby, why are you here?¡±
¡°Brother,¡± Liu Siyu said, hugging her brother. ¡°You¡¯re not busy today?¡±
The appearance of the two interrupted their prior conversation.
Ji Lingchen hugged his little wife and said to Liu Siyan, ¡°Let¡¯s keep in touch.¡±
Liu Siyan nodded. ¡°I¡¯m bringing Xiaoyu Home. We¡¯ll stay there for a few days.¡±
Ji Wen leisurely yed with the car keys and walked away.
Ji Lingchen thought that it would take a long time to book a 9-valent vine locally, so he was taking Fang Xiaonuan abroad for the vine shot. Ji Xiaoyu was also going back to the Liu family¡¯s home to stay for a few days. All the people who always oppressed him were leaving, and Ji Wen was in an extremely good mood.
The night before Ji Lingchen and Fang Xiaonuan left, Ji Wen was called to the study.
¡°I¡¯ve given you Assistant Liu¡¯s phone number,¡± Ji Lingchen said. ¡°Continue your investigation. Investigate all thepanies under the Lin family, just like the illegal teahouse. Find out who¡¯s controlling them.¡±
¡°Uncle, why do you keep asking me to investigate the Lin family?¡±
Ji Lingchen replied, ¡°It¡¯s not convenient for me to reveal myself in order to find out the truth behind your aunt¡¯s disappearance. I can¡¯t trust anyone else, so I can only rely on you. Be smart and I¡¯ll feel better about it.¡±
¡°Uncle, you think the kidnapping case was nned by the Lin family?¡± Ji Wen understood.
Ji Lingchen shook his head. ¡°Mr. Lin is a coward. Even if he wanted to, he wouldn¡¯t have the guts. Unless he has someone backing him up.¡±
¡°Is this Director Xi?¡± Ji Wen asked.
¡°He¡¯s just a pawn. Besides, 15 years ago, he didn¡¯t have a career. His power and position couldn¡¯t be what¡¯s backing the Lin family.¡±
¡°There are other people behind this,¡± Ji Wen said.
Ji Lingchen nodded. The next day, Ji Lingchen took Fang Xiaonuan overseas after he had given his nephew some instructions.
In a foreign country, Fang Xiaonuan realized that her luggage had already been packed the moment she got out of bed. There was no sign of her husband in the room. She had just gotten her vine yesterday and had not been in a foreign country for more than two days when her husband received a call that night, saying that something had happened to Ji Wen. There were no flights at night, so they could only leave today.
After a while, Ji Lingchen returned to pick up Fang Xiaonuan, and the two of them headed to the airport.
On the ne, Fang Xiaonuan asked worriedly, ¡°Honey, will Xiaowen get beaten up? Although he¡¯s smart, he¡¯s not good at fighting.¡±
¡°No, he¡¯s just being detained,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
Last night, CEO Ji was discussing where they should go next with his wife, when he received a call about Ji Wen.
The call was from a stranger, who said that Ji Wen was causing trouble in his store. He had been iming to be Ji Lingchen¡¯s nephew. He called to ask if it was fake. When she heard that it was really Ji Lingchen who answered the phone, she personally went to pick him up. She even imed that the boss was Ji Lingchen¡¯s old acquaintance, CEO Lin, and even threatened to be impolite to Ji Wen.
Only then did Fang Xiaonuan realize that Ji Wen was investigating the Lin family on her husband¡¯s behalf and was now being detained by the Lin family. She hurriedly packed her luggage and asked her husband to book the ne ticket.
The ne quicklynded in Jing City. Ji Lingchen had wanted to let his little wife go home while he made a trip to the Lin family¡¯s house, but Fang Xiaonuan refused and sat in the front passenger seat. ¡°No, I¡¯ll go with you to the Lin family¡¯s home to see who this Mr. Lin is. How dare he detain my nephew!¡±
Ji Lingchen could only go along with his wife¡¯s wishes and the two of them went to the Lin family¡¯s residence together.
In the Lin family¡¯s living room, Ji Wen¡¯s phone was on the coffee table.
Fang Xiaonuan took the phone and handed it to Ji Lingchen, but he asked her to put it back in ce. ¡°I¡¯ll have them return it to me personallyter.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan put down the phone and sat on the sofa with her legs crossed. She looked less like a guest, and more like she was here to cause trouble.
Mr. Lin came veryte this time. He had deliberately let them wait. Twenty minutester, he came downstairs and said to the two with a smile, ¡°Oh, I¡¯m so sorry, CEO Ji. I was dealing with some work in the study room just now. Please forgive me for making you wait.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan did not believe his nonsense. Since they were here to stir up trouble, she did not hold back. ¡°Mr. Lin, did you need to draft your lie? Didn¡¯t you peek at us a few times when you were at the corner of the stairs?¡±
Mr. Lin was a little embarrassed. He did not answer directly, but asked, ¡°You are?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan pretended to be surprised, ¡°Ah, you don¡¯t know me, Director Lin? When my husband and I got married, we invited all the famous people from all over the world. Mr. Lin, were you not one of them?¡±
Chapter 309 - 309 Humiliation
309 Humiliation
Facing the sharp-tongued and aggressive Fang Xiaonuan, Mr. Lin¡¯s expression darkened. ¡°I was, but my memory¡¯s not that good.¡±
¡°Oh, I see,¡± Fang Xiaonuan said as if she had a sudden realization. ¡°That¡¯s true. Director Lin, you¡¯re getting older. A bad memory is only to be expected. I wonder how old you are this year. 80?¡±
¡°I¡¯m just over 50 this year,¡± said Mr. Lin through gritted teeth.
Fang Xiaonuan turned to her husband. ¡°Hubby, don¡¯t you think it¡¯s strange? Mr. Lin is only in his fifties. Why does he look like he¡¯s in his eighties?¡±
Ji Lingchen¡¯s wife¡¯s ability to manipte people had improved again. It seemed like Ji Wen¡¯s detainment had made her very angry.
Mr. Lin lost control of his emotions after hearing Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s words, but he could not say what he wanted to say as she could. After holding it in for a long time, he finally said, ¡°Miss Fang, you have no manners.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°You¡¯re very rude, Director Lin!¡±
Ji Lingchen interrupted their bickering. ¡°Where¡¯s my nephew?¡±
Mr. Lin then remembered the business he had to attend to. He quickly gave the housekeeper a look, and the housekeeper turned around to bring Ji Wen out.
While they were waiting, Mr. Lin told Ji Lingchen, ¡°CEO Ji, no matter what, I¡¯m your savior. You can¡¯t bite the hand that feeds you, can you? Isn¡¯t it a bit too much for you to let your nephew cause trouble in my shop and affect my business?¡±
Ji Lingchen asked curiously, ¡°Mr. Lin, how did you find out that I sent my nephew to cause trouble? Besides, why would I let him cause trouble? I won¡¯t be ndered for no reason. If you don¡¯t make things clear today, I won¡¯t let this slide!¡±
His eyes were sharp, and he stared directly at Mr. Lin. Mr. Lin did not dare to look at him.
After a while, Ji Wen came out.
Fang Xiaonuan clenched her fists when she saw his arm being held. The Lin family was humiliating him! Only criminals should be held like this.
At this moment, arge handnded on top of hers, and she turned to look at her husband. Her husband did not look at her. Instead, he coldly looked at Mr. Lin, as if he was looking at a dead man. Although his eyes were cold, he asked with a smile, ¡°Mr. Lin, tell me now. How did my nephew cause trouble in your store?¡±
¡°It¡¯s not a big deal,¡± Mr. Lin said. ¡°He just broke a few sses.¡±
Ji Lingchen said, ¡°It seems like the cups in your shop are very expensive. You¡¯re even holding my nephew like this. Name your price.¡±
Ji Wen was released. He stood up straight with a serious expression. His eyes were somewhat simr to Ji Lingchen¡¯s, but he was slightly more inexperienced. He sat beside Ji Lingchen without saying a word.
¡°Just apologize,¡± Mr. Lin said. ¡°It¡¯s not that expensive.¡±
Probably because he had a backer, Ji Wen finally exploded. ¡°Apologize to you, my *ss! I didn¡¯t ask you to apologize to me, and you¡¯re taking advantage of me? Other people are thick-skinned, but you¡¯repletely shameless!¡±
Fang Xiaonuan remained silent. She casually picked up the teacup on the coffee table, took a look at the material, and then threw it forcefully at Mr. Lin¡¯s feet.
With a loud crash, the teacup shattered on the ground, and the tea sshed all over Mr. Lin¡¯s shoes and trousers.
He red at Fang Xiaonuan angrily, but Fang Xiaonuan did not seem to mind. She smiled at Director Lin and said, ¡°Oh, I¡¯m sorry, Mr. Lin. My hand slipped.¡±
¡°Mr. Lin, why don¡¯t you detain me too? Or should I apologize too?¡±
Director Lin felt that Fang Xiaonuan was here to provoke him. ¡°Fang Xiaonuan, I really don¡¯t know how Director Fang has educated you. You¡¯re so unruly.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°I don¡¯t know what your father taught you. You¡¯re digging your own grave. You¡¯re quite old, yet you¡¯re still having such sweet dreams!¡±
¡°Fang Xiaonuan, you¡¯d better watch your mouth!¡± Lin Rou, who had been eavesdropping, could not help but jump out and say something.
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°Ugh, how could I have forgotten about you? What kind of father has raised a daughter like you? You¡¯re even willing to hide in the dark to eavesdrop on others. You¡¯re just like a rat in the sewers!¡±
Lin Rou pointed at Fang Xiaonuan. ¡°Fang Xiaonuan, aren¡¯t you afraid that Lingchen will find your face disgusting?¡± she asked.
Fang Xiaonuan raised her chin and said smugly, ¡°I¡¯m sorry, but my husband likes me like this. He loves me to death. He likes my sharp tongue and my merciless fighting skills. Ms. Lin, if you don¡¯t believe me, you can stand there and not move. Let me p you a few times.¡±
¡°You little brat!¡± Lin Rou picked up a cup on the coffee table and was about to ssh water on Fang Xiaonuan.
Ji Lingchen¡¯s eyes and reflexes were sharp. He picked up the teacup and threw it at Lin Rou¡¯s hand.
Before the cup Lin Rou had thrown out could fly forward, it was smashed by another cup, and the fragments flew everywhere.
Fang Xiaonuan had not expected her husband to throw it so urately. She felt that her husband was extremely attractive now. ¡°Hubby, teach me. I want to learn how to throw cups too!¡±
Ji Lingchen was speechless. Was this the time for her admiration?
¡°I¡¯ll teach you when we get home.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan nodded in excitement.
Chapter 310 - 310 The Shameless Competition
310 The Shameless Competition
Lin Rou was so scared that she did not manage to dodge. The tea sshed all over her. When she realized what had happened, she was still holding a broken piece of the teacup.
At that moment, Mr. Lin¡¯s phone rang. Seeing that it was a call from hispany, he turned around and answered it.
¡°Chairman, it¡¯s bad!¡±
After the call, Mr. Lin¡¯s face turned from red to purple and then went white. When he hung up the phone, his eyes were wide.
¡°CEO Ji...¡±
Ji Lingchen remained calm and collected. It seems like he received a call from thepany.
Mr. Lin was no longer as arrogant as before, as Ji Lingchen practically had him by the throat. ¡°CEO Ji, you should look into the coboration with Tang Enterprise.¡±
¡°Tang Enterprise has been supporting the Lin family for almost 15 years.¡± Ji Lingchen chuckled. ¡°It¡¯s time to give some newpanies a chance to shine.¡±
Tang Enterprise used to be a smallpany under the Ji family. Itter became independent, but always worked closely with the Ji family. Because of what happened 15 years ago, Ji Lingchen pulled some strings and got Tang Enterprise to help him.
Mr. Lin thought that after so many years, Tang Enterprise would no longer be controlled by Ji Corporation, but he was wrong. However, Tang Enterprise would rather pay a billion yuan in penalty to terminate the contract with Lin Corporation. There were manypanies that wanted to cooperate with Tang Enterprise, but now, Lin¡¯spanycked a partner.
Ji Lingchen replied, ¡°You¡¯re too busy to entertain guests now, Mr. Lin. You¡¯re also old and muddled. You called Mrs. Ji by ¡®Ms. Fang¡¯. It seems that you¡¯re way too busy. I¡¯ve relieved some of the work-rted pressures for you. Don¡¯t feel the need to thank me. Lin Corporation is already a mature enterprise, and you don¡¯t need my help anymore.¡±
With that, Ji Lingchen grabbed his wife¡¯s hand and walked out.
Mr. Lin quickly stood up and blocked their way. ¡°Lingchen, you can¡¯t be so cruel!¡±
¡°Cruel?¡± He looked at his nephew and then at the phone on the coffee table. ¡°I thought you were reasonable, but you used my nephew of causing trouble because of a cup. You even detained him like he¡¯s some criminal. You even confiscated his phone. Who is the cruel one here?¡±
Mr. Lin hurriedly handed the phone to Ji Wen.
Ji Wen took it.
Lin Rou knew how important Tang Enterprise was to Lin Corporation, so she stepped forward to grab Ji Lingchen¡¯s wrist.
Ji Lingchen seemed to have anticipated her actions, so he pulled his little wife back a few steps.
Lin Rou¡¯s outstretched hand grabbed nothing.
Fang Xiaonuan panicked, ¡°Who are you trying to grab? My husband? If you dare to touch my husband with your ws, I¡¯ll chop your hands off. Do you believe me?¡±
Lin Rou could not be bothered to argue with Fang Xiaonuan.
She ran past Fang Xiaonuan, and stopped in front of Ji Lingchen. ¡°Lingchen, you can¡¯t let Tang Enterprise and Lin Group terminate their contract. You¡¯re pushing our family to a dead end. My father saved your life back then. Isn¡¯t that worth 15 years of kindness?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°Do you not think 15 years is enough? You¡¯re really insatiable!¡±
Ji Wen said, ¡°If there¡¯s apetition for the most shameless family, your family would be the world champion!¡±
¡°If you¡¯ve been a dog for a long time, your master might like you. If the dog is about to starve to death, do you think the master will just leave it to die?¡±
After saying that, he gave Mr. Lin a meaningful look, then left with his wife and nephew.
Mr. Lin looked at Ji Lingchen¡¯s departing figure in shock. What did he mean?
Lin Rou asked, ¡°Dad, what does Lingchen mean? Will he help us?¡±
Ji Lingchen drove away in the Maybach. On the way, he said to his nephew, ¡°Throw your phone out the window.¡±
After Ji Wen formatted his phone, he threw it out of the window. They were worried that someone had tampered with it.
¡°Xiaowen, how did you get caught?¡± Fang Xiaonuan asked.
Only then did Ji Wen tell them what had happened. It turned out that he had been targeted for a long time. That day, as soon as he entered the store, he was ndered by the staff. They imed he had broken the tea set and sent him directly into a room. The person who set the trap was not a member of the Lin family. The Lin family was very polite to that person, and they were very obedient.
After returning to the Ji family¡¯s residence, Ji Lingchen asked Ji Wen to get changed and took him out to see Murong. After telling Fang Xiaonuan where they were going, the two of them left.
When they arrived at the Jade Water Manor, Murong was already waiting for them. ¡°I guess you¡¯re not here with good news.¡±
After that, the three of them sat down and started talking.
Meanwhile, after Ji Xiaoyu found out that her nephew had been illegally detained, she decisively chose to call the police.
Half an hourter, Liu Siyan personally led a team to Lin Corporation to make an arrest.
Fang Xiaonuan and Ji Wen did not sit idly either. They immediately sold a video of Director Lin¡¯s arrest to the media for 500 yuan.
Mr. Lin¡¯s arrest went straight into the trending searches. Combined with the termination of the Tang Enterprise contract, people in the business world spected that Lin Corporation was also finished. Many cooperatingpanies began to think about terminating their contracts. The shareholders were antsy, and some were considering selling their shares before the stock price hit its limit. The Lin Corporation was facing its greatest crisis. Fang Xiaonuan, the main culprit of all this, was being reprimanded by her husband in the bedroom.
Chapter 311 - 311 Banquet
311 Banquet
Ji Lingchen never expected that his little wife would make the first move before he could even do anything to the Lin family. She even caused the Lin family to fall from grace.
¡°Xiaonuan, how could you risk going against the Lin Corporation alone?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°Hubby, I¡¯m not alone. I have two other aplices. One is Xiaoyu, and the other is Xiaowen.¡± She directly exposed her friends¡¯ involvement.
Ji Lingchen¡¯s expression was serious, and Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s chest tightened. Could it be that her actions had brought trouble to Ji Corporation?
She quickly hugged her husband and asked weakly, ¡°Hubby, did your kitten do something wrong?¡±
His little wife¡¯s coquettish tone almost broke Ji Lingchen¡¯sposure. He quickly steadied his serious expression and reprimanded, ¡°What you did today was nonsense. I can use many ways to destroy him in the business world. Why did you have to offend a viin like him? What if he retaliates against you?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan kissed her husband on the cheek. ¡°Hubby, calm down. I¡¯m Mrs. Ji. He¡¯s as timid as a mouse. He won¡¯t dare to exact revenge on me!¡±
She also understood that her husband was angry because he was worried about her safety. ¡°I¡¯m good at fighting, so don¡¯t worry about me.¡±
Ji Lingchen continued, ¡°Next time, you should learn from Xiaoyu. Stab him in the back instead. Mr. Lin knew that someone called the police to arrest him, but he did not know that it was Xiaoyu who did it. He could only suffer in silence.¡¯ But you and Xiaowen weren¡¯t smart enough. He knew that you two were the ones who recorded the video. I won¡¯t feel bad if Xiaowen suffers because he has thick skin, but what if someone hurts you?¡±
¡°I know how to fight, hubby,¡± Fang Xiaonuan replied.
¡°You only have two hands. Can you fight ten men?¡±
¡°Of course!¡±
Ji Lingchen was at a loss for words. ¡®There¡¯s really nothing I can do!¡¯
In order to appease her husband, Fang Xiaonuan offered him a kiss. Ji Lingchen would not let this opportunity go, so he ¡°taught¡± her a good lesson in bed.
...
The next day, Mr. Lin was released on bail. Seeing that hispany was about to be destroyed, he quickly turned to his backer and said, ¡°Boss, what should I do now that things havee to this? Liu Siyan is like a mad dog, biting down on Commissioner Xi and refusing to let go. We can¡¯t hold on for much longer, and Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s video is also about to bring down thepany.¡±
The man he called ¡®boss¡¯ had white hair and was smoking a cigar. ¡°Fang Xiaonuan? Ji Lingchen¡¯s wife?¡±
¡°Yes, that¡¯s her!¡± Mr. Lin said.
¡°A little girl caused all this? I¡¯m really curious about her.¡± The old manughed.
¡°Boss, how can Lin Corporation survive this situation?¡± Mr. Lin asked.
¡°Mr. Chen¡¯s birthday banquet is in five days. It¡¯s a good opportunity,¡± the old man said.
¡°Thank you for your advice, boss!¡± Mr. Lin bowed respectfully.
...
That night, at the Ji residence, Old Master Ji received a video call from Mr. Chen.
Mr. Chen said, ¡°I¡¯m having a birthday party this Saturday. Bring your family, especially your daughter-inw who can y more than a thousand rounds of Anipop. I haven¡¯t met her!¡±
¡°My second daughter-inw is called Xiaonuan,¡± Old Master Ji said. ¡°You only remember that she¡¯s good at ying Anipop.¡±
¡°Anyway, bring your family. Don¡¯t leave anyone behind!¡±
Old Master Ji agreed. He left the room and was about to look for Fang Xiaonuan. He wanted to bring up this subject with her. The couple was lying down. Ji Lingchen was the one who opened the door. Who knew that Fang Xiaonuan would reject his invitation? This made Old Master Ji sad. If Fang Xiaonuan did not go, how could he show off his daughter-inw to Mr. Chen?
The next morning, after Ji Lingchen went to work, Old Master Ji looked for Fang Xiaonuan. ¡°Xiaonuan, why don¡¯t you want to apany me to the banquet?¡±
¡°Dad, I¡¯ve never attended one before. I¡¯m afraid of embarrassing myself,¡± Fang Xiaonuan replied.
Old Master Ji finally understood his daughter-inw¡¯s point of view. ¡°You¡¯ll go with me. It won¡¯t be embarrassing!¡±
Fang Xiaonuan still did not agree to go.
Old Master Ji rolled his eyes. ¡°Xiaonuan, your love rival might be there. Don¡¯t say I didn¡¯t warn you,¡± he said.
Fang Xiaonuan was taken aback. Was Lin Rou going too? ¡°I don¡¯t consider her a love rival. I¡¯m not going.¡±
¡°Maybe she¡¯s not your love rival, but you might still have more love rivals you don¡¯t know about yet! Lingchen never told you about this, right? Before you, Lingchen wouldn¡¯t listen to anyone, but when it came to that person... If she wanted something, he would definitely relent. Those two haven¡¯t seen each other for a long time. Aren¡¯t you afraid...¡±
Fang Xiaonuan fell silent. She would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one off. ¡°Dad, can I bring a knife to the banquet?¡±
Old Master Ji panicked. ¡°I don¡¯t think you should bring a knife.¡±
...
On Saturday, the Chen family¡¯s banquet was crowded with guests.
In order to outdo her love rivals, Fang Xiaonuan put on a custom-made gown. The skirt of the bluish-purple gown was iid with a circle of shattered diamonds. Her dress sparkled in the dazzling light with every step she took.
Chapter 312 - 312 The Feng Family
312 The Feng Family
Ji Lingchen looked at his little wife. She was dressed too stunningly, and this made him very unhappy. So many men would get the chance to look at her!
¡°Xiaonuan, why don¡¯t we go home?¡±
¡°Impossible. I even brought my knife!¡± Fang Xiaonuan replied.
¡°A de? What for?¡±
!!
Fang Xiaonuan, ¡°To eliminate your love rival!¡±
Ji Lingchen was speechless. ¡°What love rival?¡±
Old Master Ji was bragging to Mr. Chen about how amazing his daughter-inw was. ¡°My daughter-inw is the most beautiful girl in the school. Really! You know about Lingchen¡¯s temper? He¡¯s as obedient as a puppy when he¡¯s around her!¡±
¡°Your second daughter-inw is so powerful?¡± Mr. Chen did not believe it.
¡°I want to see what she looks like!¡± Mrs. Chen said.
A momentter, the couple entered the banquet hall, arm in arm.
Fang Xiaonuan looked left and right. ¡°Hubby, stop hugging me. I¡¯m looking for your love rival!¡± she said.
¡°Who is it?¡±
¡°I should be the one asking you!¡±
¡°Little fool.¡± Ji Lingchen suddenly realized something. ¡°Did dad trick you?¡± He had been wondering why his wife had suddenly changed her mind abouting. Initially, she did not want toe at all.
Fang Xiaonuan thought. ¡°Huh? Dad lied to me?¡±
¡°Dad wanted you toe, so he could show you off to his old friends. He told you that I have a love rival because he knew it would bother you,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
¡°Why does he want to show me off?¡± Fang Xiaonuan was confused.
¡°Probably because you¡¯re too beautiful!¡±
Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s face reddened. How could her husbandpliment her beauty in public?
Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s parents had also arrived. The four of them chatted for a while before Ji Lingchen brought Fang Xiaonuan to greet Mr. Chen.
When Fang Xiaonuan saw the two elders from the Chen family, she greeted them obediently.
The two elders thought that Fang Xiaonuan was the sweetest and prettiest girl. They kept praising her.
Old Master Ji was so pleased with himself that his nose practically pointed skyward.
During the conversation, Fang Xiaonuan found out that Director Lin and Lin Rou were there as well. However, they should be hiding. They were probably afraid of getting scolded again.
After saying their goodbyes, Fang Xiaonuan followed Feng Qi to the washroom.
She had only taken a few steps when Feng Qi was suddenly called away by someone familiar. Fang Xiaonuan had not wanted to go to the washroom in the first ce. Now that her husband was not with her, she took the opportunity to sneak into the banquet hall.
At first, she had been looking for her love rival. Now she was looking for her enemies. Sure enough, she saw Mr. Lin in the corner, who was talking leisurely. ¡°What a coincidence, Mr. Lin.¡± She strode over and greeted him.
When Director Lin heard this familiar voice, he knew that something was wrong. When he turned, he saw Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s smiling face. Mr. Lin¡¯s heart was in his throat.
Fang Xiaonuan cleared her throat and said loudly, ¡°Mr. Lin, you¡¯re out of prison already? That day, I saw you being taken away by the captain of the Criminal Investigation Unit. I wanted to visit you in prison. What a coincidence that I¡¯m seeing you again now that you¡¯re out! Mr. Lin, tell me. Why were you arrested?¡±
The people around them turned to watch. Mr. And Mrs. Fang happened to be nearby. They saw their daughter and walked toward her.
Fang Xiaonuan continued, ¡°The news said that Lin Corporation is going bankrupt and is facing a financial crisis. They also said that they¡¯ve already discussed an acquisition. Is that true, Director Lin? Also, why did Tang Enterprise suddenly cancel their contract with you?¡±
The people who were chatting happily just now all subconsciously kept their distance from Director Lin when they heard this.
Director Lin noticed that everyone was avoiding him, and he was burning with anger. He had just exined to these people that Lin Corporation was fine, and that there was a high chance that they could work together. Now, Fang Xiaonuan had ruined everything!
Mr. Fang also realized that his daughter was speaking with Mr. Lin. He took his wife¡¯s hand and said, ¡°We¡¯ll wait and see.¡±
Lin Rou had long since spotted Fang Xiaonuan. She was in the crowd behind her. These people might not know, but she was well aware that Fang Xiaonuan had something to do with her father¡¯s arrest. She could not take this lying down. She also had not expected Fang Xiaonuan to start a fight with her father in public. A thought surfaced in her mind.
She sneaked up behind Fang Xiaonuan and suddenly rushed forward to give her a hard push. She even shouted, ¡°Fang Xiaonuan, you¡¯re courting death!¡±
She wanted to push Fang Xiaonuan into the arms of an old man in front of her. There were quite a number of reporters at the banquet. If the reporters were to take a picture of Ji Lingchen¡¯s wife falling into the arms of an old man, Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s reputation and the Ji family¡¯s reputation would suffer. No matter what the truth was, if someone published this, it would definitely embarrass them!
Fang Xiaonuan was wearing high heels and was caught off guard. Her body fell forward. Seeing that there was a man in front of her, she twisted suddenly, taking the risk of hitting a table.
When Mr. Fang and Mrs. Fang saw this, they quickly ran over to protect their daughter. In the end, Fang Xiaonuan fell into her father¡¯s arms, but her father¡¯s waist hit the corner of the table.
Mr. Fang ignored the pain and asked, ¡°My daughter, are you alright?¡±
Chapter 313 - 313 Fight
313 Fight
¡°Dad!¡± Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s mother helped her up. ¡°Are you alright?¡±
She did not even notice Lin Rouing up behind her. If her father had not protected her, the consequences would have been unimaginable. After regaining her bnce, she turned around and walked to Lin Rou. She raised her hand and gave her a p. ¡°You don¡¯t seem to understand words. Do you have to fight to prove your point?¡±
After scolding her, she gave Lin Rou a backhanded p. Then, she lifted her skirt and kicked her in the stomach. After Lin Rou fell, she climbed on top of her and continued hitting her.
Mrs. Fang wanted to remind her daughter to take care of her reputation, but she realized that she could not get close to her daughter at all.
!!
Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s eyes were already red from the effort. She pped her and punched her. Lin Rou waspletely unable to retaliate. The banquet hall was silent, and the people around them could hear the muffled sounds of the fight.
No one around could stop Fang Xiaonuan, so Mr. Fang quickly said to his wife, ¡°Quickly! Go find Lingchen!¡±
Ji Lingchen was chatting with the Chen family when his mother-inw found him. He stood up and ran towards the banquet hall.
When he arrived at the scene, he finally saw his little wife. She was throwing a tantrum. It turned out that she had not been joking. She really wanted to hit her love rival. He quickly went forward to hug his little wife.
When Fang Xiaonuan saw the man behind her, she felt a lump in her throat and cried, ¡°Hubby¡ Someone is bullying me.¡±
Everyone present was speechless.
Many people testified that Lin Rou was the one who started the fight. In the end, Mr. Lin and Lin Rou, who had been beaten beyond recognition, were ruthlessly kicked out of the banquet.
Ji Lingchen even publicly announced that he would be irreconcble with the Lin family from now on. The Ji family would no longer exist in the same social circles as the Lin family. If the Ji family was there, the Lin family must disappear!
At this point, everyone could clearly see the situation. The Lin family was finished.
At this banquet, Fang Xiaonuan was on fire. Other than Ji Lingchen¡¯s amazing pampering, the crowd was even more surprised that a petite and cute-looking youngdy could hit someone so ruthlessly!
After this incident, Feng Qi med herself and kept crying.
After Fang Xiaonuan was doneforting Feng Qi, she went to see her parents. ¡°Dad, how¡¯s your waist? Does it hurt?¡±
Mr. Fang said, ¡°I¡¯m fine. You¡¯re not that heavy. I just touched you a little. It¡¯s nothing.¡±
Ji Lingchen knew that his wife was worried, so he quickly said, ¡°Dad,e with me to the washroom. Let me see. Xiaonuan and Mom can wait outside for a while.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan pushed her father into the washroom.
¡°Xiaonuan, what kind of animosity do you share with the Lin family?¡± Mrs. Fang finally had the chance to question her daughter.
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°It¡¯s a long story. In short, Mom, our family shouldn¡¯t have any contact with the Lin family. Their family isn¡¯t decent.¡±
After a while, Ji Lingchen brought his father-inw out. Then, he walked to his wife¡¯s side and said, ¡°Don¡¯t worry. Dad is fine.¡±
However, Fang Xiaonuan was still worried. ¡°Dad and Mom, you guys should leave first. Go to the hospital to get an X-ray. What if there¡¯s underlying damage to your bones?¡±
Mrs. Fang could not argue with her daughter, so after exining the situation to the Chen family, they left the banquet early.
Fang Xiaonuan wanted to leave as well, but she was the Ji family¡¯s daughter-inw and could not leave. She could only stand at the door and watch her parents leave.
As she returned to the banquet hall, Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s husband was on her left, and her sister-inw was on her right. Right now, no one dared to let her run around on her own. Moreover, after the previous incident, no one dared to take the initiative to talk to her. Many people who wanted to use her to get to the Ji family suppressed their desires.
The banquet went on as usual. It was as if nothing had happened.
Ji Lingchen sent a message to his nephew.
Ji Wen was lying on the bed when he suddenly received a message. ¡°Follow Mr. Lin.¡±
Then, he quickly called Murong. ¡°Uncle Murong, it¡¯s Xiaowen.¡±
¡
The banquet officially started, and Mr. Chen went on stage to give a speech. Fang Xiaonuan continued to eat the food at the banquet. As she ate, she suddenly realized that Feng Qi had been looking in a certain direction. She followed her gaze and saw someone who looked a little familiar. He had called Feng Qi¡¯s attention away.
Fang Xiaonuan turned around and looked at her sister-inw.
Feng Qi was stunned for a moment, then stammered, ¡°H-he¡ Xiaonuan. There¡¯s something I need to do. Stay with Lingchen. Don¡¯t run around!¡±
With that, she walked towards the man.
Fang Xiaonuan did not think too much about it and continued to eat. After eating sixrge puffs and three small cakes, she said to her husband, ¡°Hubby, there are only desserts here. I want to eat something salty.¡±
¡°Alright, I¡¯ll take you to the Chinese restaurant,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
Then, the two of them walked to the other side, hand in hand.
Suddenly, Fang Xiaonuan stopped in her tracks and pointed. ¡°Hubby, that¡¯s sister-inw, right?¡±
Ji Lingchen nced in that direction and understood. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. I¡¯ll take you to eat something.¡±
Chapter 314 - 314 Feng Qi’s Past
314 Feng Qi¡¯s Past
Fang Xiaonuan was no longer in the mood to eat. How could she stand by while her sister-inw got bullied?
Just as she was about to walk over, Ji Lingchen stopped her. Then, she saw the man p Feng Qi hard.
Ji Lingchen did not say anything. He pulled his wife to a corner and hid.
Fang Xiaonuan clenched her fists tightly, but her husband pulled her away. ¡°Ugh, hubby, someone is hurting sister-inw. I¡¯m going to avenge her. Let go of me and I¡¯ll beat that b*stard up!¡±
¡°Xiaonuan, have care for her pride,¡± Ji Lingchen said in a low voice.
Fang Xiaonuan then understood that this was her sister-inw¡¯s most embarrassing moment. She cared a lot about her reputation, so if Fang Xiaonuan saw her like this, she would definitely feel even worse.
Ji Lingchen saw that his kitten had quieted down, so he patted her back. The two of them listened quietly.
¡°Feng Qi, I¡¯m your father. You have to take care of me when I¡¯m old and after I die. I¡¯m in the hospital, but you haven¡¯t visited me. You even let that kid, Ji Wen, anger me. Do you not care about me? Whether you believe it or not, I¡¯ll go into City Hall tomorrow and let everyone see what kind of person the mayoress is. I¡¯ll show them that she doesn¡¯t even care about her own father!¡±
Feng Qi gritted her teeth and clenched her fists. ¡°My husband¡¯s family is here. If you touch me again, they won¡¯t let you off!¡±
Feng Qi¡¯s father spat on her face. ¡°Bah! You little b*stard, you only achieved your current status because of me. It¡¯s fine if you don¡¯t thank me for it, but now you don¡¯t even want to acknowledge me?¡±
Seeing that Feng Qi had been holding back, Fang Xiaonuan could not take it anymore. ¡°Hubby, let me go. I¡¯ll go stab that old man to death!¡±
She had a knife in her bag that she had brought for her love rival.
¡°Don¡¯t move,¡± Ji Lingchen said as he hugged his wife.
Feng Qi could not take her father¡¯s insults and said angrily, ¡°Enough! What do you want?¡±
Mr. Feng and the man beside him looked at each other. ¡°It¡¯s almost the new year. You have to give me a million yuan as a token of respect. Your brother has been in some trouble recently and needs four million yuan. I want to receive five million yuan by tomorrow. Otherwise, I¡¯ll go into the City Hall!¡±
¡°I don¡¯t have five million!¡±
¡°Shut up,¡± the other man said. ¡°You¡¯re the young mistress of the Ji family. You have so much pocket money. Can¡¯t you take out five million? You want me to hit you, don¡¯t you?¡±
Feng Qi looked at the man. ¡°Feng Hai, I don¡¯t work. My husband is the one who gives me the money. I want to keep the Ji family¡¯s money for my son. Don¡¯t you dare take it away!¡±
¡°I advise you to stop pestering me. Thirteen years ago, my husband¡¯s family could make you lose everything, and we can do the same now!¡±
¡°That¡¯s because you were pregnant with the Ji family¡¯s child. Do you think you still have the ability to do that now?¡± Mr. Fengughed contemptuously. ¡°Now that Ji Lingchen has a wife, would he still care about you? Listen, if you can¡¯t get the five million by tomorrow, I¡¯ll go to the City Hall and make a scene. Also, you should keep your son indoors, or I¡¯ll hire a hitman to beat him up!¡±
After that, the two of them turned around and left.
Feng Hai pointed at Feng Qi before he left and said, ¡°Five million. If you don¡¯t pay up, I¡¯ll target your son. Don¡¯t say I didn¡¯t warn you. Ji Wen would be gone, and you won¡¯t be able to give birth to another child in this lifetime!¡±
Feng Qi trembled with anger. She really wanted to fight with her family. After the two of them left, she seemed to have lost all her strength. She leaned against the wall, slowly slid down, and crouched on the ground.
Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s heart ached for her. She wanted to go up andfort her sister-inw, but her husband stopped her. She knew what her husband wanted, so she could only leave.
When they returned to the living room, Ji Lingchen told his wife that the two people earlier were Feng Qi¡¯s father and her half-brother. Back when Old Master Ji was still a government official, the Feng family had arranged a marriage with the Ji family in order to curry favor with Old Master Ji. They had wanted to marry the youngdy of the Feng family to Ji Kangde.
Butter, Old Master Ji was framed, and the Feng family wanted to call off the engagement. Although Old Master Ji was disappointed, he still agreed to it. After that, the country proved his father¡¯s innocence and even wanted to promote him. When the Feng family heard this, they went back to discuss the marriage again. In the end, Old Master Ji abandoned his position in the government and went into business. The Feng family wavered again. However, the news of the marriage between the two families had been released, and the Feng family could not break off the marriage again. On the day of the wedding, the eldest daughter of the Feng family ran away and let Feng Qi, their illegitimate daughter, marry in her ce. She used to live a hard life with her mother. It was Old Master Feng who could not stand it and brought her back to the Feng family. However, her status in the Feng family was lower than a servant¡¯s. It was only after she married into the Ji family that her life became better.
Of course, the Ji family could also tell that Feng Qi was not the Feng family¡¯s eldest daughter. It was Mrs. Ji who went to ask her daughter-inw about it. After knowing what had happened to her, the Ji family did not despise her. Instead, they all felt sorry for her. After that, she stayed.
Later on, Ji Kangde rose up step by step, and Feng Qi became pregnant. Not long after, Mrs. Ji also had Ji Xiaoyu.
Chapter 315 - 315 Drunkard
315 Drunkard
After finding out about her sister-inw, Fang Xiaonuan¡¯s heart ached even more. She wished she could go and beat up the two b*stards who had bullied her.
¡°Xiaonuan,¡± Ji Lingchen said sternly, ¡°You¡¯ve already fought today. You can¡¯t fight anymore.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan was extremely depressed, so she went to eat something. After eating one serving of foie gras, she suddenly felt sick of it. She picked up a ss of wine and said, ¡°This should be red wine. The alcohol content isn¡¯t high, so it should be fine to drink a little.¡± After she finished speaking, she looked at the wine in the ss. ¡°One cup is too little. Give me more.¡± As she spoke, she poured three sses of wine into one ss and drank it all in one gulp.
¡°Xiaonuan!¡± By the time Ji Lingchen saw it, it was already toote.
After finishing her drink, Fang Xiaonuan stuck out her tongue. ¡®This wine must be expired. It tastes so bad!¡¯
Ji Lingchen looked at his wife¡¯s blushing face. In the time it took him to speak, his little wife had already finished the entire ss.
After a while, Fang Xiaonuan was drunk.
¡°Hubby, my feet hurt. I don¡¯t want to wear high heels anymore!¡±
¡°Hubby, where¡¯s my love rival?¡±
¡°Hubby, why do you have three heads again?¡±
Ji Lingchen hugged his babbling wife. He could not stay here any longer, so he quickly brought her home.
After finally rinsing her mouth and coaxing her into bed, Fang Xiaonuan still refused to go to sleep.
¡°Honey, can I touch your chest?¡±
¡°You¡¯re always touching mine, so why can¡¯t I touch yours?¡±
¡°Hubby, let¡¯s have a baby!¡±
After a long time, Fang Xiaonuan finally fell asleep on her husband¡¯s shoulder.
Ji Lingchen swore that he would never let his little wife touch a drop of wine again!
¡
The next morning, when Fang Xiaonuan woke up, she remembered something embarrassing. She was dumbfounded. Did she act like a hooligan towards her husbandst night?
¡°Xiaonuan, do you still want to have children with me now?¡± Ji Lingchen took the opportunity to tease his wife.
Fang Xiaonuan was so embarrassed that she buried her head in the nket.
Ji Lingchen went to the study to work, and Fang Xiaonuan, who had nothing better to do, went downstairs to the living room. She happened to see Feng Qi leaving the residence. She hurriedly ran to her husband¡¯s study and was about to push the door open when Ji Wen came out.
Fang Xiaonuan pulled on his hand.
Ji Wen shook Fang Xiaonuan off. ¡°I¡¯m not going. I¡¯m not going. If you have something to say, go look for your husband.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°The Feng family asked sister-inw for five million yuan yesterday. She just left the house alone!¡±
Ji Wen understood the severity of the matter and quickly ran towards the door. Fang Xiaonuan followed.
Ji Wen started the car, and Fang Xiaonuan fastened her seat belt. Seeing how nervous her nephew was, she said to him, ¡°My husband told me about sister-inwst night.¡±
Ji Wen nodded and asked, ¡°Did that b*stard hit my mom yesterday?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan replied, ¡°He hit her, and even scolded her.¡±
Ji Wen¡¯s grip on the steering wheel tightened. He stepped on the elerator and drove all the way to the Feng residence. However, Feng Qi¡¯s car was not there.
Fang Xiaonuan was about to get out of the car when Ji Wen pulled her back. ¡°My mom isn¡¯t here. Let¡¯s go.¡±
After a while, Ji Wen brought Fang Xiaonuan to the entrance of a coffee shop. It turned out that Feng Qi knew that it was dangerous to go to the Feng family¡¯s house. Therefore, she would meet them at the same coffee shop every time she needed to speak to them. Feng Qi had invested in the coffee shop, so her personal safety would not be threatened if she came here.
The two of them soon saw Feng Qi. She was sitting opposite Mr. Feng and his son. She took out 50000 yuan in cash and put it on the table. The two people opposite her were furious. They stood up and were about to hit her, but the staff stopped them.
¡°I want five million!¡± Feng Hai pointed at Feng Qi and scolded her. ¡°You¡¯re only giving me fifty thousand? Are you trying to send off a beggar?!¡±
Seeing that Feng Qi was fine, both Fang Xiaonuan and Ji Wen heaved sighs of relief. Ji Wen then told Fang Xiaonuan more about the Feng family. It turned out that Feng Hai was also an illegitimate child, but because he was a son, Mr. Feng took him home very early on. When Feng Qi married into the Ji family, the Feng family was not kind to the Ji family. It was not until Ji Kangde was promoted and became the director of the Jing City Finance Bureau that he began to target the Feng family. He deliberately dyed the Feng family¡¯s two-billion yuan transaction and did not sign it. In the end, the Feng family lost the business.
The Feng family had suffered a great loss and knew that they had to hold on to their son-inw. The Feng family quickly acknowledged Feng Qi. They even repeatedly asked Feng Qi to go home and asked her to put in a good word for them during pillow talk with her husband. However, Feng Qi did not agree. She was pregnant with her second child at that time, and Feng Hai pped her so hard that she fell to the ground. Ji Wen was still young at the time, but that image was deeply engraved into his memory.
After returning home, Ji Wen cried and told his father that his mother had been beaten. Ji Wen did not know what happened after that. He only remembered that not long after, Feng Hai knelt in front of Feng Qi and begged her to let the Feng family go.
Chapter 316 - 316 Entering Prison Again
316 Entering Prison Again
Since then, the Feng family had suffered a disastrous decline. Ji Kangde¡¯s revenge had caused the Feng family to frequently lose big deals. Naturally, the Feng family would not give up. They yed tricks behind the scenes and wanted to get Ji Kangde transferred. However, after Ji Kangde left the finance bureau, he became the mayor of Jing City. Ji Kangde did not show any mercy to the Feng family, and soon after, the Feng family dered bankruptcy.
¡°So big brother made the Feng family bankrupt to exact revenge on behalf of sister-inw?¡±
¡°No.¡± Ji Wen shook his head. ¡°He did that because my mother miscarried.¡±
It was only then that Fang Xiaonuan realized the most crucial problem. Her sister-inw only had one child, Ji Wen. This was because of the Feng family.
!!
Ji Wen continued, ¡°The real Ms. Feng came back. She was moved by my father¡¯s actions. In addition, my father treated my mother very well, and my mother had the Ji Corporation to back her up. She was envious. She felt that my mother had taken away the happiness that was rightfully hers. She began to act dangerously. Once, when my mom went back to the Feng residence, she put an abortion drug in my mom¡¯s food. Not only did she kill the child, but she also almost killed my mom. The Feng family did not allow my mom to go to the hospital, and confiscated her cell phone. They locked her up and left her to fend for herself.¡±
In the end, Ji Kangde found out that his wife was not home and went to the Feng residence to look for her. However, the Feng family insisted that Feng Qi was not there. At that time, Ji Xiaoyu had already gone missing, and Feng Qi was in charge of the entire Ji family. Her pregnancy was the only happy event in the Ji family. Old Master Ji knew that his daughter-inw was missing, so he asked Old Master Feng about it. Seeing that he could not keep it a secret anymore, Old Master Feng told them that Feng Qi was locked in the basement.
By the time Ji Kangde found his wife, her legs were bloodstained. The blood had dried up on her clothes. She waspletely pale and cold. She looked dead.
Fortunately, Feng Qi was saved, but the child she was carrying did not make it.
The Ji family went crazy and targeted the Feng family, causing them to go bankrupt. Ms. Feng was arrested for attempted murder, and Mrs. Feng was also under the Ji family¡¯s control because she wanted to save her daughter. Only Mr. Feng and his son escaped overseas. They stayed away from the Ji family. In the end, it was the terminally ill Old Master Feng who pleaded with Feng Qi. She agreed to let the father and son of the Feng family off on ount of her grandfather¡¯s care for her.
Fang Xiaonuan cried. She had not expected her sister-inw to have gone through so much. She had been used by Mr. Feng and his son!
In the shop, Feng Qi had made the father and son of the Feng family so angry that they had snatched the money from off the table. They pointed at Feng Qi and scolded her before leaving the coffee shop.
¡°Ji Wen, drive. Chase after them,¡± Fang Xiaonuan said.
¡
At home, Ji Lingchen noticed that his wife had disappeared for the entire morning. He thought that she had gone to y with her nephew, so he did not press the issue. However, it was after lunchtime now, and Ji Wen and his wife still were not back.
¡°Where¡¯s Xiaonuan?¡± he asked one of the maids.
¡°The young madam and young master went out together. They haven¡¯t returned yet,¡± the maid replied.
Ji Lingchen had a bad feeling about this.
In the afternoon, his phone rang. It was his little wife.
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°Hubby¡¡±
Ji Lingchen could tell from her tone of voice that his wife was in trouble again. ¡°Tell me. Who did you put in the hospital this time?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan was stunned. How did her husband know that she had hit someone again?
¡°Hubby, I¡¯m not in the hospital. Come to the police station and bail me out!¡±
Ji Lingchen chuckled.
Fang Xiaonuan and Ji Wen met Ji Xiaoyu at the police station. It turned out that Liu Siyan was concerned that his younger sister was staying at home too much. He brought her outside because he wanted her to get some sun. Who knew that she would meet her two good friends who had justmitted a crime?
The two of them had gone to the casino and caused a ruckus, forcing an underground casino to call the police. Liu Siyan was interrogating the people at the casino.
¡°Why did you two wreck the casino?¡± Ji Xiaoyu asked.
¡°We weren¡¯t going to wreck the ce. We were going to beat some people up,¡± Fang Xiaonuan replied.
¡°Who?¡± Ji Xiaoyu asked curiously.
¡°The father and son from the Feng family,¡± Fang Xiaonuan replied.
After that, Ji Wen and Fang Xiaonuan telling Ji Xiaoyu about the pair¡¯s evil deeds.
After hearing this, Ji Xiaoyu was furious. ¡°You guys are mean. How could you leave me out of this? You should have brought me along to hunt the two Feng family dogs!¡±
¡°Xiaoyu,e over here for a moment!¡± Liu Siyan said. He had just exited the interrogation room. He regretted bringing his sister outside today.
After a while, Ji Lingchen arrived.
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°Hubby, quickly get me out of here.¡±
¡°Xiaoyu, you went to fight with them too?¡± Ji Lingchen asked when he saw his sister.
¡°Brother, Xiaonuan is so mean. She didn¡¯t ask me to join the fight!¡± Ji Xiaoyu said.
Ji Lingchen chuckled.
¡°Xiaoyu, go y with the girl in forensics,¡± Liu Siyan said.
¡°No!¡± Ji Xiaoyu said.
Liu Siyan had no choice but to let his sister listen in. He questioned Fang Xiaonuan and Ji Wen. ¡°You two robbed the Feng father and son?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan shook her head. ¡°I didn¡¯t. That¡¯s my sister-inw¡¯s money. I¡¯m just returning it to its rightful owner.¡±
Ji Lingchen looked at his troublemaker of a wife.
Fang Xiaonuan was embarrassed by her husband¡¯s stare. ¡°Hubby, you said yesterday that I could only fight once a day, so I endured it until today.¡±
Ji Lingchen felt helpless when he heard how obedient and well-behaved his wife was trying to be.
Chapter 317 - 317 Robbery
317 Robbery
Liu Siyan told Ji Lingchen what had happened. Fang Xiaonuan and Ji Wen had followed the Feng father and son to a privately operated casino. The police had searched it several times but had not caught them. Now, Fang Xiaonuan had caused a ruckus and had directly called the police. The two of them went to the casino to ask the Feng father and son for the money back. The father and son refused to give up the money and even wanted to fight with Fang Xiaonuan and Ji Wen. In the end, the father and son were restrained and beaten up. They also lost the money. ording to the people at the casino, Fang Xiaonuan had broken four automatic Mahjong machines and a water dispenser, causing the casino to lose 12000 yuan. She had even injured three staff members. They were now being treated in the hospital. She had also injured two guests by mistake, and they were also in the hospital now. Fang Xiaonuan had twisted Mr. Feng and his son¡¯s arms out of ce, and they could not move right now. Feng Hai had lost a tooth too. The two of them were being detained separately.
When he heard what happened, Ji Lingchen looked at his little wife. His little kitten was really fierce when she got angry.
Ji Xiaoyu was excited upon hearing all this. ¡°It¡¯s so spectacr. It¡¯s too bad that I wasn¡¯t there to witness it myself!¡±
Her two brothers red at her at the same time. Ji Xiaoyu was at a loss for words after that.
!!
The two of them were bailed out. Then, Ji Xiaoyu followed them back to the Ji family¡¯s residence.
Fang Xiaonuan was just about to conspire with her two good friends when her husband pulled her back into the room.
Fang Xiaonuan struggled the entire way. ¡°Dear husband, your kitten understands her mistake. Please pardon me!¡±
Ji Lingchen decided that in order for his little wife to stay at home obediently, he had to make her tired. He would make her sleep in for days. She would have to catch up on sleep all the time!
The next day, in order to prevent the three-person team from causing more trouble, Ji Lingchen brought Ji Wen to the office.
Ji Xiaoyu was at a loss for words. ¡®So, you¡¯re leaving me alone?¡¯
Fortunately, her father could y with her at home. The father and daughter could improve their rtionship by ying games together. Old Master Ji also told her many things about her childhood. However, this was a special mission that had been given to Old Master Jist night.
In order to prevent the three-person team from causing trouble, Ji Lingchen had deliberately asked his father to watch over Ji Xiaoyu. Meanwhile, he took Ji Wen away.
However, in the afternoon, when Fang Xiaonuan and Ji Xiaoyu met up, they knew that something was wrong. Furthermore, they knew that Old Master Ji was a spy, so the two of them secretly plotted to prompt Old Master Ji to rebel. At night, Ji Xiaoyu told Ji Wen the n. Fang Xiaonuan was in charge of stalling while the other two went to Old Master Ji¡¯s room to tell him about the things Mr. Feng and his son had done. Old Master Ji was sessfully persuaded to defect.
The next morning, Ji Xiaoyu said that her grandfather had terminal cancer and she wanted to visit him. At the hospital, her grandfather, who had almost recovered, was listening to opera and peeling oranges.
Fang Xiaonuan had also argued with her husband on purpose. She left a letter, iming that she would be returning to her parents¡¯ home.
Ji Lingchen was about to take his nephew to the office when Old Master Ji stopped him. ¡°Xiaowen can stay at home. I have something to discuss with him.¡±
¡°What do you need him for?¡±
¡°Can¡¯t he just be here to entertain me?¡± Old Master Ji asked.
Old Master Ji sessfully sent his son off. Then, Ji Wen also drove away from the Ji family¡¯s residence.
The three of them met at the breakfast cafe. They bought three cups of soy milk, and two trays of buns. They were free!
When he reached thepany, CEO Ji felt that something was amiss. Suddenly, he thought of something and called Liu Siyan. ¡°Hey, I have something to ask you.¡±
¡°Go ahead.¡±
¡°Is your grandfather terminal?¡± Ji Lingchen asked.
¡°Did Xiaoyu run away?¡± Liu Siyan guessed.
After hanging up, Ji Lingchen called his father-inw. ¡°Dad, has Xiaonuan returned home?¡±
¡°No, she didn¡¯t say she wasing back,¡± Mr. Fang replied.
¡°My wife ran away too,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
He called the butler. ¡°Is Xiaowen still at home?¡±
¡°He drove away as soon as you left,¡± the butler replied.
¡°Forget it. All three of them ran away,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
The three-person team was currently strolling around the Feng residence.
¡°Xiaonuan, I think the vase looks pretty good!¡± As she spoke, Ji Xiaoyu smacked an antique vase down, and it shattered into pieces.
Fang Xiaonuan was sitting on the sofa with her legs crossed. She was holding a stack of documents. ¡°Ugh, you want to file awsuit?¡±
After she dislocated their arms thest time, the Feng father and son were so scared that they did not even dare to breathe.
Fang Xiaonuan flipped through a few pages and read it out loud, ¡°Female: Feng Qi. Did not fulfil her obligations of providing for her parents. Son-inw: Ji Kangde. Beaten his father-inw many times. Tsk tsk, you write well. Did you pay someone to write theseints? How much did you spend? 200 yuan?¡± As soon as she finished speaking, she tore it up.
Ji Xiaoyu had broken most of the valuable items in the house. She went straight to the kitchen and took out a fruit knife. ¡°Xiaonuan, I think this looks pretty good. Do you think it can be used to stab people?¡±
The Feng father and son were so frightened that their pupils contracted. ¡°Murder! Murder is illegal. You¡¯d have to pay with your lives!¡±
Ji Xiaoyu deliberately waved the knife in front of them. ¡°Who said that? Back when my sister-inw was pregnant, you guys killed the child in her womb. Aren¡¯t you guys still alive and well now?¡±
She took a few steps closer. ¡°I¡¯m sorry. I can¡¯t fight. So, I have to use weapons.¡±
¡°You brat! Who are you?¡± Mr. Feng asked, trembling.
¡°I¡¯m Ji Xiaoyu!¡± Ji Xiaoyu said with a smile.
Chapter 318 - 318 Wreaking Havoc in the Feng Family
318 Wreaking Havoc in the Feng Family
¡°That¡¯s impossible! Ji Xiaoyu died fifteen years ago!¡± Mr. Feng blurted out.
Fang Xiaonuan furrowed her brows. Why was Mr. Feng so sure that Ji Xiaoyu was dead?
She walked behind Feng Hai and kicked him in the leg, causing him to kneel on the ground. ¡°Xiaowen, you¡¯ll hit him the same way he hit my sister-inw back then!¡±
Ji Wen walked over and pped Feng Hai, causing him to fall to the ground. After the p, his palm was burning. He had long wanted to p Feng Hai ruthlessly, and today, he finally had the chance!
Feng Hai was just about to get up when Ji Wen punched his teeth again. Feng Hai¡¯s lips immediately started bleeding.
Fang Xiaonuan looked at Mr. Feng in horror. ¡°Why did you say Ji Xiaoyu died? How did she die?¡±
Old Master Ji had told her before that Ji Xiaoyu¡¯s funeral had not been held. For so many years, no one except Old Master Ji and the butler knew that Ji Xiaoyu was ¡°dead¡±. So, how did he know?
Mr. Feng knew that he had let the cat out of the bag. He quickly shook his head. ¡°I-I don¡¯t know anything.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan took another look at Feng Hai, who had been beaten beyond recognition. Then, she turned to Mr. Feng and said, ¡°Do you want to end up like your son? I can give you that!¡±
After that, Mr. Feng and his son¡¯s cries for help filled the Feng family¡¯s living room.
Twenty minutester, Liu Siyan received a notice to dispatch the police.
¡°Captain Liu, the father and son of the Feng family encountered three robbers who broke into their house and assaulted them.¡±
Liu Siyan put down his teacup and turned to his subordinates, who were preparing to rush out with the police. He said, ¡°Have a seat, I can go by myself.¡±
¡°Captain, there are three people on the other side. Should you go alone? Why don¡¯t I go with you?¡±
Liu Siyan¡¯s expression did not change. ¡°It should be a neighborhood dispute. I¡¯ll go by myself. None of you need to follow me.¡±
The operator recalled the cries for help that came from the phone just now. ¡°It didn¡¯t sound like a neighborhood dispute.¡±
But Liu Siyan still went out alone.
Fang Xiaonuan had smashed the bathroom window¡¯s ss. She had climbed through the window and entered the house that way. She had knocked the phone out of Mr. Feng¡¯s hand, pressed him into the sink, turned on the tap, and doused his head with cold water.
The phone had been smashed to pieces and was lying on the ground.
Feng Hai was left to Ji Wen and Ji Xiaoyu.
Fang Xiaonuan asked, ¡°Back then, your family was huge, and you had a business. Without a backer, you wouldn¡¯t have been able to achieve that kind of sess, right? Tell me. Who¡¯s your backer?¡±
Mr. Feng shook his head under the water.
Fang Xiaonuan gave him some time, then pulled his head out from under the water. She could not really kill him.
After a while, three cars arrived at the Feng family¡¯s house, and four people got out.
As soon as she entered, Feng Qi saw Ji Xiaoyu holding a fruit knife and pointing it at Feng Hai¡¯s eyes, threatening to blind him. Ji Wen was also punching and kicking him from the side.
Ji Kangde quickly tried to cover his wife¡¯s eyes, but Feng Qi stopped him. ¡°Where¡¯s Xiaonuan?¡±
Ji Lingchen started looking for his little wife the moment he entered.
Ji Wen and Ji Xiaoyu pointed in the right direction.
Ji Lingchen walked over and kicked the door open.
Fang Xiaonuan was startled, but when she saw that her husband had arrived, she greeted him with a smile, ¡°Hubby, you¡¯re here to protect me!¡±
CEO Ji¡¯s temples were throbbing in anger.
Feng Qi also ran over and saw the tragic scene.
Mr. Feng was scared. Fang Xiaonuan and tortured him. He did not even have the strength to escape. He sat on the ground, practically paralyzed, and begged the police toe quickly.
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°Sister-inw, you¡¯re here too. Look, Xiaoyu, Xiaowen, and I have helped you vent your anger!¡±
Feng Qi¡¯s eyes turned red when she heard her words. She walked over and hugged Fang Xiaonuan. ¡°Silly child. Why did you provoke them?¡±
¡°Sister-inw, we are using violence to curb violence. It¡¯s useless to reason with people like them. Only people like me can deal with them!¡± Fang Xiaonuan said.
Ji Lingchen separated the two of them, then pulled his little wife¡¯s hand and walked out with her. In the living room, Liu Siyan had confiscated Ji Xiaoyu¡¯s fruit knife.
Liu Siyan was trembling with anger. She pointed at Ji Xiaoyu and asked, ¡°Do you want to go to jail?¡±
Ji Xiaoyu shook her head, not afraid at all. ¡°No.¡±
Ji Wen¡¯s father pulled him aside. When he saw his son¡¯s red knuckles, he wanted to scold him, but he could not open his mouth. He even wanted to praise his son.
The three-person group stood side by side with their heads lowered, like students waiting for their teacher¡¯s rebuke.
¡°Who came up with this idea?¡±
Ji Wen and Ji Xiaoyu pointed at Fang Xiaonuan at the same time.
Fang Xiaonuan nced around and simply pointed at herself.
¡°Xiaonuan, are you trying to give me a heart attack?¡± CEO Ji¡¯s head hurt even more.
The Feng father and son were also waiting for the police toe and uphold justice for them, but the four people who came were obviously in cahoots!
Liu Siyan had already changed out of his police uniform in the car.
In the end, Ji Lingchen said, ¡°Educate your own family.¡± Then, he took his wife away.
Feng Qi and Mayor Ji took their son away.
Before Liu Siyan could pick his sister up, Ji Xiaoyu put her hand into his. ¡°Brother, I¡¯m yours. Take me away.¡±
Chapter 319 - 319 Breakthrough
319 Breakthrough
Ji Lingchen did not bring his little wife back to the Ji family¡¯s residence. Instead, he went straight to Spirit Creek Vi.
Fang Xiaonuan looked at the familiar white building and refused to get out of the car no matter what.
Ji Lingchen lost his patience and carried her into the living room, throwing her on the sofa. ¡°Sit down!¡±
Fang Xiaonuan scrambled to the corner of the sofa. This ce was unlike the Ji family¡¯s residence. There was no one to back her up here. There was no one else in Spirit Creek Vi, and no one would care what her husband did to her. An idea came to her mind, and she quickly said, ¡°Hubby, the Feng family knows about Xiaoyu¡¯s death fifteen years ago. Today, they said with great certainty that Xiaoyu died fifteen years ago. But Dad has kept this matter a secret. You and big brother didn¡¯t even know about it, so how could they know? Something is amiss!¡±
She told him about this to quickly divert his attention, so that he would not hit her.
In the end, Ji Lingchen did not fall for it at all. He merely narrowed his eyes, then his expression returned to normal. He approached Fang Xiaonuan step by step, and pulled her back to the middle of the sofa.
Fang Xiaonuan struggled with all her might. ¡°Hubby, I was wrong. I won¡¯t do it again. I¡¯m your only wife. If you kill me, you¡¯ll have wasted so much money!¡±
¡°I¡¯m rich!¡± Ji Lingchen replied. ¡°Didn¡¯t you run away from home? Didn¡¯t you say that you¡¯re going back to your parents¡¯ house? What did you promise me yesterday?¡±
Fang Xiaonuan said, ¡°Hubby, that was just a little trick I yed so I could get out of the house. You¡¯re so smart. You must know how much I love you!¡±
Ji Lingchen was helpless. He sat on the sofa and asked, ¡°Are you hurt?¡±
¡°No.¡± Fang Xiaonuan shook her head. ¡°Those two pieces of trash from the Feng family are no match for me at all.¡±
Ji Lingchen looked at his triumphant little wife and sighed. He got up to get a cup of hot water and handed it to her.
¡°Thank you, hubby.¡± Fang Xiaonuan took a sip of water and said, ¡°Hubby, I really suspect that the Feng father and son have something to do with the kidnapping from fifteen years ago.¡± Fifteen years ago, when his eldest brother was working in the finance bureau, the Feng family had already started to decline, while the Ji family was on the rise. First of all, the two families werepetitors. Moreover, the Feng family¡¯spany was big back then. Even if the marriage with the Ji family did not work out, they likely had a backer behind them. Besides, the Lin family started to rise right after the Feng family went bankrupt. There must be a driving force behind this.
Ji Lingchen had already guessed this, and his wife¡¯s words confirmed some of his suspicions. He looked at his wife, who was as soft as a kitten in his arms, and said, ¡°In the future, if you want to fight again, you must tell me in advance, okay? And you¡¯re only allowed to win, not lose. And you¡¯re not allowed to get injured!¡±
¡°Got it!¡± Fang Xiaonuan replied.
Meanwhile, the father and son of the Feng family helped each other up. After these two incidents, they understood that going against the Ji family would only lead to a miserable death. At this moment, a man came to the house.
The man took out a check and handed it over. ¡°Here¡¯s 5 million yuan. Don¡¯t evere back after you leave Jing City. If you agree, I¡¯ll send you off now.¡±
Mr. Feng and his son looked at each other and took the check. They really could not stay here any longer, or they would lose their lives.
A few dayster, Liu Siyan¡¯s investigation showed some results. The Lin group had raised 2 billion from abroad and sessfully survived the crisis of a cash flow rupture. Furthermore, a senior executive in the political world had brought him out to discuss business. That executive was the Feng family¡¯s former backer, Secretary Gao.
After receiving the results of the investigation, he called Ji Lingchen immediately. ¡°Deputy Director Xi is also Secretary Gao¡¯s student.¡±
¡°Then, that¡¯s right. Secretary Gao is the one who saved Director Xi,¡± Ji Lingchen replied.
Looking at the information in front of him, Liu Siyan went straight to the point and said, ¡°The police have been investigating based on my spections. Although they¡¯ve found a lot of things, this evidence is not enough to arrest Director Xi. Now that the Lin family has recovered, if they still protect Director Xi, we won¡¯t be able to do anything to them, even considering my dad¡¯s position. If we can¡¯t catch him now, I¡¯m afraid it¡¯ll be even more difficult in the future¡¡±
Ji Lingchen understood that Liu Siyan was asking him for help. ¡°I can suppress the Lin family in the business world so that they don¡¯t have time to care about other things. I should be able to buy you some time.¡±
¡°Thank you,¡± Liu Siyan replied.
¡
A few dayster, the Lin family arranged to sign a contract with the Song family in a high-profile manner. It was not a good idea to invite reporters to the contract signing ceremony. However, this was a historical moment. Mr. Lin wanted to use this opportunity to tell everyone in the business world that the Lin family could still survive, and even prosper, even though they were targeted by the Ji family!
The signing ceremony began. He first spoke passionately on stage for a long time. Then, it finally came to the most crucial part: the signing of the contract.
Everyone at the scene was anticipating this moment. The reporters were also ready to shoot. However, the moment that the representative of Song Corporation picked up the pen, he suddenly received a call.
Mr. Lin suddenly had a bad feeling when he saw the change in the man¡¯s expression.
Chapter 320-End - 320 A Family of Four
320 A Family of Four
In the end, the representative of Song Corporation only said, ¡°Understood.¡± Then, he hung up the phone. He stood up and bowed to Mr. Lin, ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Mr. Lin. Thepany¡¯s ns have changed. I¡¯m afraid we can¡¯t proceed with the contract signing today.¡±
¡°Why?¡± Mr. Lin¡¯s eyes widened. ¡°Didn¡¯t we have a good discussion before?¡±
¡°Mr. Lin, if you have any questions, you can contact our president,¡± the representative said.
With that, he quickly left the scene and even ignored the reporters¡¯ attempts to get interviews.
The crowd was buzzing with guesses. It suddenly became very noisy.
Mr. Lin, who was still on the stage, was so embarrassed that he flipped the table over. Then, two police officers suddenly rushed onto the stage and took him away. He was still in a daze. The scene was chaotic.
Meanwhile, Secretary Gao, who was ying chess and drinking tea in the teahouse, was also suddenly taken away. Unlike Mr. Lin, the person who took him away was from the Commission for Discipline Inspection.
A monthter, the two were sentenced separately. Mr. Lin was sentenced to 10 years in prison for bribery, illegal fundraising, and illegal detention. Secretary Gao was sentenced to life in prison for taking bribes, a huge amount of corruption, abuse of power, illegal fundraising, and other crimes.
It turned out that Liu Siyan had found a shellpany under Secretary Gao¡¯s brother-inw¡¯s name, and found concrete evidence of Secretary Gao¡¯s crimes. Although it did not cover all of his crimes, it was a very good breakthrough. After that, with the efforts of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, more and more evidence of Secretary Gao¡¯s crimes turned up. It was enough to sentence him.
Secretary Gao had also confessed that 15 years ago, he had threatened and bribed the forensic doctor to falsify the test results. He was also the one who had ordered the Lin family to carry out the kidnapping. He had aimed to control the Ji family. The Feng family should have taken care of this, but they had wanted to curry favor with the Ji family through Feng Qi¡¯s marriage. Therefore, they had not agreed. After that, Secretary Gao stopped supporting the Feng family and became the Lin family¡¯s backer. They were easier to control.
Director Lin wanted to be rich even in his dreams. That year, they nned to kidnap Ji Wen and take him back to the Ji family a few dayster to get in the Ji family¡¯s good books. However, because Ji Lingchen protected his nephew, they only managed to kidnap Ji Xiaoyu. Ji Xiaoyu even identally saw their faces. Just as they were about to kill her, Ji Xiaoyu jumped into the sea. A five-year-old child falling into the sea had almost no chance of survival. After two days of searching, they could not find the body. Instead, they found the body of a little girl who had just died. She was wearing the same clothes and shoes as Ji Xiaoyu. They also found the report from the forensic doctor. Who knew that fifteen yearster, Ji Xiaoyu woulde back alive?
Ever since Mr. Lin was arrested, Lin Rou had disappeared. Because the assets were frozen, Lin Rou could not take many things with her. It was said that when the assets of the Lin family were seized, all the bags in the vi were found to have disappeared along with Lin Rou.
The Ji family was overjoyed when they found out that those two had been arrested. They had finally gotten their revenge and the fifteen years of darkness had finally dissipated. They could finally live a good life. This became the best New Year¡¯s gift the Ji family had ever received.
On New Year¡¯s Eve, the Ji family and the Liu family all gathered at the Ji family¡¯s residence. The mansion was decorated with lights. The atmosphere was filled withughter and excitement.
Fang Xiaonuan was in the kitchen, wearing an apron and ring at a fish. She had recently learned how to cook a new dish, and was preparing to kill the fish. Although she never had to blink when she hit people, she was actually stumped by a living fish. The moment she stabbed the fish¡¯s body and saw the blood, she fainted.
The whole family panicked, and quickly called the family¡¯s doctor.
When Fang Xiaonuan woke up, the entire family was looking at her. They were smiling.
¡°Honey, what¡¯s wrong with me?¡±
Ji Lingchen¡¯s eyes were red as he held his wife¡¯s hand. ¡°Xiaonuan, we have a little tiger!¡±
Fang Xiaonuan was stunned for a moment before she realized that she was pregnant!
¡
Her due date was approaching, and the small Fang Xiaonuan now had a huge belly. ¡°Hubby, did you get your things?¡±
CEO Ji, who had always been calm and collected, was now very antsy. He was running back and forth through the house. ¡°Wait! Xiaonuan, I haven¡¯t gotten you a nket.¡±
Fang Xiaonuan felt a warm current between her legs. ¡°Hubby, don¡¯t bother with the nket. The little tiger is anxious and wants toe out to y!¡±
A few hourster, Fang Xiaonuan gave birth to twin daughters.
Ji Lingchen held one in each hand and gave his wife a grateful kiss. ¡°Honey, you¡¯ve worked hard.¡±
Many yearster, Ji Lingchen woke up from his afternoon nap to find that someone had drawn on his face.
It was obvious that this was the work of his two ¡°angelic¡± daughters. As soon as he entered the study room, he saw two mini versions of Fang Xiaonuan giggling and hiding in the corner.
¡°Ji Xiaonian, Ji Xiaoxiang,e over here,¡± Ji Lingchen ordered.
¡°Mommy, help! Daddy is going to hit me!¡± The two little ones shouted for their mother.
Fang Xiaonuan, who had lost some of her childish roundness and gained some charm, was carrying cut fruits upstairs. When she saw her husband, sheughed so hard that her body swayed back and forth. ¡°Hubby, look at your face. Haha! Our daughters take after me. They¡¯re talented in painting!¡±
Ji Lingchen replied, ¡°What else can I do? I can only pamper my wife and daughters!¡±
