Ji Yu
ing returned in defeat and hid in the room, feeling depressed. She looked at herself in the mirror. In terms of looks, she was not one bit inferior to Tang Youyou. But why did Ji Xiaohan seem to hate looking at her?
He really couldn’t accept it!
Ji Lin knocked on the door. Ji Yu
ing thought it was a servant urging her to go downstairs to eat di
er, so she said loudly, "I told you not to bother me. I don’t want to eat anything, go away!"
"It’s me!"
Ji Yu
ing was shocked and hurried over to open the door. Ji Lin frowned and looked at her, "Why are you so sullen again?"
"Daddy hates me!" Ji Yu
ing’s face was filled with grief.
Ji Lin snorted lightly, "I already guessed it. Ji Xiaohan is not a man with a heart of flowers. He is very devoted. On this point, he is quite close to his father."
"You mean uncle?" Ji Yu
ing did not have much of an impression of Ji Xiaohan’s father, and Ji Lin had never told her anything about him.
Ji Lin sneered, "That’s right, his father also loved a woman back then, but unfortunately, he is not as lucky as his son. That year, he was arranged to marry into a business alliance and was forced to marry Ji Xiaohan’s mother." "That’s right, his father loved a woman back then, but unfortunately, he is not as lucky as his son."
Hearing that, Ji Yu
ing frowned and asked curiously, "Daddy, did Uncle really die in a car accident?" What a pity that you died so young! "
"Is it a pity?" Ji Lin suddenly turned around and swept his cold gaze across her face: "If he doesn’t die, then when will I be able to take over the company?"
After Ji Yu
ing heard this, her whole body shivered in fright. She looked at Ji Lin who had a cold and furious expression on his face.
"Daddy, I ??" "I didn’t mean anything else. I just felt like he deserved to die. Who asked him to keep denying you entry into the company. God must have felt that he went too far and wanted to punish him!" Ji Yu
ing immediately changed her words. Under Ji Lin’s tutelage, she was already a tactful woman. She could easily tell people’s language from people’s mouths.
"You have to go through your head in the future, do you understand?" Ji Lin immediately glared at her sternly.
Ji Yu
ing quickly nodded her head in apology. "Daddy, I spoke too much just now. Don’t be angry. I definitely won’t dare to speak carelessly to anger you in the future."
Ji Lin liked Ji Yu
ing’s docile attitude. Only then did he calm down and said, "Alright, let’s go downstairs to eat. Don’t be so hungry!"
"Daddy, I can’t eat!" Ji Yu
ing was so full of anger now that there was no chance for her to taste anything.
"He really has no future!" Ji Lin scolded, "If a man can make you depressed, how can you follow your father and do anything big in the future?"
Ji Yu
ing’s body trembled again. She didn’t dare to continue the hunger strike, so she could only follow him downstairs.
The next morning, Ji Xiaohan personally called Ji Lin to invite him for lunch. Ji Lin happily agreed.
It had been five years since they saw each other again. One of them had spent his days in prison while the other held power. They had met again with a smile on their faces and a knife in their eyes.
No matter when he saw Ji Xiaohan again, Ji Lin felt a sense of fear from the bottom of his heart.
This feeling wasn’t because Ji Xiaohan’s words gave him a sense of danger, but because the aura of a tyrant exuded from his body made people feel like they were a level lower and that they were causing trouble. This feeling wasn’t good, it pressured Ji Lin to the point that he felt uncomfortable.
Ji Yu
ing accompanied them in, of course. Her dress today still carried a bit of professionalism, her long hair hung down to her shoulders, and her pure face was slightly rouged. Compared to her usual self, who liked to put on heavy makeup, it had more of a youthful air to it, thus it did not attract Ji Xiaohan’s attention.
Ji Xiaohan’s booking also showed his wealth and grandeur. He had reserved a table full of delicious food in the seven-star luxurious private room. After carefully calculating, this meal was no less than a million!
Such a noble treatment made Ji Lin even more uncomfortable. He felt that he had to bow down in front of others.
"Uncle, please sit!" Ji Xiaohan was polite and polite.
This kind of cultivation and bearing once again hit Ji Lin, because he had never shown such dignity before, so when he saw others emitting it, he felt a bit ashamed of his own inferiority.
"Xiaohan, I haven’t seen you for a few years. You have become more mature and have more charisma. No wonder you have infatuated my Yu
ing with you like a lovestruck fool." Ji Lin immediately laughed.
Ji Yu
ing raised her beautiful eyes. When she saw Ji Xiaohan’s pair of deep eyes, she shyly lowered her head and blushed.
For some reason, in front of other men, Ji Yu
ing could still be considered a queen. But in front of Ji Xiaohan, she was like a little woman, and she didn’t even dare to look him in the eyes.
"Heh, Uncle sure knows how to joke. I’ve always taken care of Yu
ing like a brother and sister!" Ji Xiaohan wanted to hit the nail on the head, so no matter what the occasion was, Ji Xiaohan always had words.
Hearing the words’ siblings’, Ji Yu
ing’s face looked as though it had been slapped hard, her face red and white.
Did Ji Xiaohan really only care for her as siblings?
No, it definitely wasn’t just related to his sister. Ji Yu
ing believed that Ji Xiaohan definitely had the same infatuation and love as a lover when he was young. She was sure of that.
Ji Lin nodded and said with a smile, "You are siblings after all. Although Yu
ing is my adopted daughter and there is no blood relationship between you two, but seniority ca
ot be messed up!"
Ji Xiaohan sneered in his heart. Since seniority can’t be messed with, why did he drug him back then? Is he trying to let everyone know that he’s like a beast that won’t even let his sister go?
This move was truly sinister and vicious.
Ji Yu
ing didn’t expect Ji Lin to keep talking about her relationship with Ji Xiaohan. Her face had turned pale as she clenched her fists under the table.
"You really can’t mess around. Just like how Uncle treated my dad, I’ve always heard my dad say that you two have a good relationship with each other!" Ji Xiaohan naturally changed the topic and brought the topic to Ji Lin and Ji Nan.
Ji Lin’s face instantly stiffened. Although he was still smiling, that smile felt like it was breaking.
"When I talk about Big Brother, I feel deeply pained. Big Brother has always treated me very well, but I haven’t even seen him for the last time." Ji Lin immediately looked sad and sighed with emotion.
"After my dad was sent to the hospital, he woke up for half an hour and said a lot of things to me!" Ji Xiaohan suddenly opened his mouth again. This sentence instantly made Ji Lin feel a chill down his spine.
