Ji Wan thought Zhou Zechuan was a light in her life. She willingly hid her brilliance and entered into a secret marriage with him for two years, content to be his kept woman. However, she didn'...
Chapter 306 A fierce conflict breaks out
He Wanqing shifted uneasily, "Ji Wan, let the past be the past."
"The past?" Ji Wan sneered, "How could I let it go? Who was the reason why my mother became like that? It was your mother, Dong Man."
He Wanqing raised her head suddenly, a trace of anger flashed in her eyes, "Ji Wan, don't talk nonsense, my mother didn't."
"You didn't seduce my father? You didn't sow discord between my parents? You didn't shift your family's debts onto my mother?" Ji Wan spoke each word in a cold voice.
The atmosphere in the car suddenly became tense, and Zhou Yan's hands gripping the steering wheel tightened slightly.
"I don't know what you are talking about." He Wanqing argued, her eyes flickering.
Ji Wan suddenly reached out and grabbed He Wanqing's wrist with such force that He Wanqing gasped in pain.
"Don't know? Then let me tell you."
Ji Wan's eyes were filled with hatred. "Dong Man seduced my father and made him sign the contract to transfer the He family's debt to my mother's name. My mother collapsed when she found out, and your mother, the seemingly dignified and elegant Dong Man, actually went to the hospital to mock my mother."
He Wanqing struggled to shake off Ji Wan's hand, "Let go. You're crazy."
"I'm not crazy." Ji Wan let go of his hand, his voice suddenly calming down. "I just want to know if you were involved in it?"
He Wanqing rubbed her wrist, a trace of guilt flashed in her eyes, but it was quickly replaced by anger. "I don't know what you are talking about. That's all your imagination."
Ji Wan sneered and took out his phone from his bag. "Imagination? What about this?"
She clicked on a recording on her phone, and Dong Man's sharp voice came out of the phone: "Mrs. Ji, look at how you look now, it's really pathetic."
He Wanqing's face turned pale as paper. "You, you."
"This is the surveillance recording from my mother's ward." Ji Wan turned off his phone, a cold light flashing in his eyes. "It took me two years to find this evidence. If I give this to the media, what do you think will happen?"
He Wanqing finally broke down, "Ji Wan, what do you want?"
"What do I want?" Ji Wan sneered, "I just want justice for my mother."
As she spoke, she suddenly raised her hand and slapped He Wanqing in the face with a loud slap.
"This slap is for my mother."
He Wanqing covered her face with her hands and widened her eyes in disbelief.
Ji Wan didn't stop and slapped him again.
"This slap is for my father."
Zhou Yan was stunned in the front seat and quickly stopped the car. "Ms. Ji, please calm down."
Ji Wan acted as if he didn't hear it and slapped him for the third time.
"This slap was given for the Ji family."
He Wanqing was beaten so hard that she felt dizzy and blood was flowing down her nostrils, staining her exquisite suit red.
"You're crazy. You lunatic." He Wanqing screamed and tried to push Ji Wan away.
Ji Wan grabbed her wrist and said in a cold voice, "Don't think I don't know. You came to see Chi Wenyan today just to use him to deal with me, right?"
He Wanqing was so angry that she was shaking all over. "Ji Wan, you're done. I will make you pay the price."
"I'm always here." Ji Wan let go of He Wanqing, straightened his clothes, and said calmly, "Mr. Zhou, please take me home."
Zhou Yan looked embarrassed and didn't know what to do.
"Ji Wan, don't be so complacent." He Wanqing gritted her teeth, "If you dare to make the recording public, the merchant will kill you to silence you. Do you think your parents can still survive? Your mother is in a mental hospital now. Who will take care of her?"
Ji Wan sneered, "He Wanqing, do you think I'm afraid?"
"You should be afraid." He Wanqing wiped the blood from her nose, a fierce look in her eyes, "Let's go our separate ways. Don't provoke me, and I won't bother you. Otherwise, you will bear the consequences yourself."
Ji Wan looked at He Wanqing and suddenly smiled. "Okay, we'll go our separate ways. But if you dare to attack my mother again, or use Chi Wenyan to frame me, I won't let you go."
He Wanqing was frightened by Ji Wan's gaze and shrank back involuntarily.
Ji Wan opened the car door and left without looking back.
"Crazy, you lunatic." He Wanqing screamed at Ji Wan's back and stomped her feet in anger.
Zhou Yan looked at He Wanqing's miserable appearance through the rearview mirror, and was hesitant to speak.
"What are you looking at? Send me back." He Wanqing became angry and embarrassed.
Ji Wan walked down the street, the anger in her heart gradually subsiding. She took out her cell phone and dialed a number.
"Chi Lin, I want to see you."
At Chi Lin's house, Ji Wan sat upright on the sofa in the living room, his face calm, but the anger in his eyes had not completely subsided.
Chi Lin walked in, holding two cups of coffee. "Thank you for coming to see me in person. It's worth my painstaking arrangements."
Ji Wan took the coffee and frowned slightly, "What do you mean?"
"He Wanqing, I was the one who arranged to find Chi Wenyan." Chi Lin took a sip of coffee, his eyes full of pride. "Don't you hate her very much? I just wanted to see how you would react."
The anger in Ji Wan's eyes rekindled, "You are playing with fire."
"Don't be angry." Chi Lin smiled and sat next to her. "I just want you to understand that in this circle, there are no eternal enemies, nor eternal friends."
Ji Wan looked at him coldly, "What do you want to say?"
Chi Lin put down his coffee cup and suddenly said seriously, "I want to go see your mother."
Ji Wan was stunned, "What?"
"I heard that she hasn't appeared in public for a long time. Is she sick?" Chi Lin asked with a concerned tone.
Ji Wan looked at him warily, "Why are you asking about my mother?"
"Don't get me wrong, I just think that since we're colleagues now, it's only right for us to get to know each other's families." Chi Lin chuckled, "Besides, my mom and your mom used to be friends, and she's always wanted to meet Aunt Hua."
Ji Wan was silent for a moment, and finally nodded, "Okay, but not too long."
That afternoon, Chi Lin and Ji Wan arrived at a high-end nursing home on the outskirts of Yucheng.
This is a beautiful building surrounded by green trees, birdsong and flowers. From the outside, it looks more like a resort than a medical institution.
"Your mother lives here?" Chi Lin was a little surprised.
Ji Wan nodded, "She needs a quiet environment."
They walked through a quiet courtyard and arrived at a small, independent building. The nurse led them into a bright room.
Hua Ying was sitting on a rattan chair by the window, holding a book in her hand. The sunlight shone on her through the window, adding a touch of softness to her.
"Mom." Ji Wan called softly.
Hua Ying raised her head and saw Ji Wan, a bright smile immediately bloomed on her face, "Wanwan, you're here."
She stood up to greet him, her steps brisk, not looking at all like a mental patient. When she saw Chi Lin, her smile faltered for a moment, but quickly returned to normal.
