Chapter 17 When the Playboy Turns Over a New Leaf

She tried to appear relaxed: "Is Second Young Master Ji good to you? I've heard he's a notorious playboy."

Liao Zhuxin's brows were radiant with happiness; she certainly wouldn't have dared to say it before.

But now she can confidently tell others: "Huaizhi treats me very well, and the rumors from the outside world are wrong."

Seeing her happy expression, a deep meaning flashed in Liao Jinhe's eyes.

Seeing her apply lipstick, I praised her, saying, "It looks great, it really suits you."

"Thank you, I have to go now. Huaizhi is still waiting for me outside. I'll send you a message." Liao Zhuxin really liked this pretty older sister.

Liao Jinhe watched as she lifted her skirt and skipped up to Ji Huaizhi, who patted her head.

It's clear that the two have a very good relationship.

When Ji Huaizhi caught a glimpse of Miss Liao out of the corner of his eye, his heart skipped a beat. Had the butterfly effect led Liao Jinhe to find Zhuxin ahead of time?

Why is the lipstick color different from before?

Liao Zhuxin blushed and said, "I couldn't find mine. A lady in the restroom gave it to me. I saw that this lipstick was quite expensive, so I'm going to give her a new one."

"Okay, I'll have someone deliver it to your home tomorrow. You can choose one then," Ji Huaizhi said softly.

"But you forgot what I told you: don't trust people easily when you're out and about. Especially people in this circle, they're all very calculating."

"Of course I know." Liao Zhuxin chuckled. "I just don't know why I feel that the older sister wouldn't hurt me, and I feel a sense of familiarity when I see her."

A profound look flashed across Ji Huaizhi's eyes.

Silly girl, she's your older sister, of course you feel close to her.

Miss Liao must have her suspicions, and has probably already had someone investigate.

We should just wait and see what happens next.

"Let's go see our older brother; he should have finished his social engagements by now."

"Miss." The assistant saw her standing there in a daze when he came over.

"Let's go, get me a set of lipsticks, and also..." Liao Jinhe said softly, watching their retreating figures.

"Also, please check Ji Huaizhi's recent schedule for me."

"yes."

Ji Huaizhi said he went to find his older brother because he thought he had just seen Lu Wenwen.

Today is the Ji family's banquet, and the Lu family was not invited. Besides, given her suspicious behavior, it's hard to believe she's innocent.

"Host, your elder brother is about to be defiled."

The system's words made Ji Huaizhi's lips twitch: He'd been hit? Where?

After finding out where it was, Ji Huaizhi first called Assistant Qin: "Take a family doctor to 308, and also two bodyguards."

"Keep it down."

Assistant Qin is looking for President Ji.

I was a little confused when I received the call from Young Master Ji, but I guessed that something might have happened to him, so I could only take people to find him first.

When Ji Huaizhi saw Assistant Qin arrive with his entourage, he told Zhu Xin to stand to the side and said, "Don't get bumped into later."

Liao Zhuxin nodded blankly.

Then they saw Ji Huaizhi kick the door open with his long legs.

Assistant Qin's lips twitched: "Second Young Master Ji, didn't we say to keep things quiet?"

Ji Huaizhi calmly replied, "Just to scare the people inside."

Assistant Qin's eyes widened in surprise at the scene inside, and he quickly took off his suit jacket and went in: "President Ji!"

"ah!"

Lu Wenwen, disheveled and unsure where to hide, was startled when the door was suddenly kicked open, just as she was about to succeed.

"What are you doing getting out of here!"

Ji Huaizhi narrowed his eyes, finding it too noisy: "Cover her mouth."

"Ji Huaizhi! How dare you!"

Lu Wenwen only had a bath towel to cover herself with: "Get out! Don't touch me!"

"I'll get my dad to kill you all!"

Ji Huaizhi sneered: "It seems Miss Lu has some strange quirks~ She likes to run around naked in front of strange men. In that case, you two don't need to dress her. Just wrap her in a bath towel and send her back to President Lu like this."

"Let him see the eldest daughter of the Lu family, what a refined taste..."

Lu Wenwen's face turned pale with fright: "No!"

"Ji Huaizhi, you can't! Are you crazy?"

"Shh." Ji Huaizhi put his index finger to his lips: "Miss Lu wouldn't want others to see you like this, would she?"

"But don't worry, the Ji family's bodyguards are all professionally trained and will get you back safely."

After saying that, the bodyguard wrapped her in a large bath towel, and the two of them led her out through the back door.

Liao Zhuxin's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets when she saw Lu Wenwen's appearance.

"Mr. Ji!" Assistant Qin noticed that something was wrong with Mr. Ji and quickly asked the family doctor to come and take a look at him: "Come and see."

Seeing that there was nothing inconvenient inside, Liao Zhuxin came in as well: "Huaizhi, is it alright to just send her back like that?"

“Even if her father is angry, he will only come to apologize. As long as someone has a high status, we will never complain.” This is what Ji Huaizhi wanted to tell her.

She doesn't need to worry about anyone's opinion.

On the contrary, others have to be mindful of her mood.

Liao Zhuxin blinked. Is this what power tastes like?

After regaining some strength, Ji Yanzhi's face was still flushed: "I don't know what happened, but something was added to what I drank, and there's a problem with my men."

“There are surveillance cameras everywhere. It’s easy to find out who took money they shouldn’t have.” Ji Huaizhi poured his older brother a glass of water.

"However, Assistant Qin should be punished for failing to find my older brother for so long."

Assistant Qin knew, of course: "I will go and accept the punishment."

Ji Yanzhi took the medicine from the family doctor, put it under his nose, and his expression cleared up a bit: "I won't go anymore, my condition isn't suitable."

"Go, Huaizhi. I believe those old geezers are no match for you."

Ji Huaizhi rolled his eyes: "I know, you should get some rest."

"I wonder how things are going with the blind date Mom mentioned for you. I guess this situation will be over once you have a sister-in-law."

Ji Yanzhi scoffed, "Nonsense." Then, noticing Liao Zhuxin was also there, he said, "I'm sorry for scaring your sister-in-law. If you're bored while Huaizhi is busy, have someone take you to the lounge."

Liao Zhuxin shook her head: "No need, brother, you should rest first, don't worry."

Ji Huaizhi said, "Then I'll go down first. You should rest for a while."

After saying that, he pulled Liao Zhuxin downstairs: "I'll show you your husband's skills in a bit."

Liao Zhuxin chuckled: "Then I'll act serious in a bit, so as not to embarrass you."

Ji Huaizhi: "Here, even if you fart, people will say your fart smells good."

"You're so annoying." Liao Zhuxin felt that he was becoming more and more like a child.

Ji Huaizhi gave her a look, stepped forward, took a glass of champagne from the waiter, and walked directly to the foreign company personnel who were cooperating with the Ji family.

He spoke fluent English directly with them.

Liao Zhuxin was somewhat surprised.

After exchanging friendly greetings with Ji Huaizhi, the other party's gaze fell on Liao Zhuxin.

Liao Zhuxin quickly regained her composure and greeted them in English. When she heard the foreign friends compliment her on her beauty, her cheeks flushed slightly as she thanked them.

Then she settled down and became a decorative figurehead by Ji Huaizhi's side.

The other partners of the Ji family discovered that the protagonist had been changed to Ji Huaizhi, and what was even more surprising was that Ji Huaizhi was not completely ignorant of the family company's business.

On the contrary, they could do it effortlessly.
