"Fool, you've figured it out?"

Ji Shijie sat high and mighty on the sofa, staring coldly at him.

Sitting on the ground, Ji Mu thought of the impossible possibility and felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

"Why? Why? Why are you doing this to me?"

His eyes were bloodshot as he roared in anger.

"Because I'm afraid of ending up like Xie Ming! Isn't this the best proof? Sixteen years of sincere treatment, and what did I get in return? Tell me!"

Ji Shijie found out more than Xie Ming had, including Ji Mu bribing Xie Qingqing's friend to tip her off and plan how to continue framing her. He had even arranged the most vicious photo-taking scheme.

Seeing what Ji Mu had done, Ji Shijie couldn't imagine how furious he and Xie Ming would be if it actually happened.

Why can't he be the same as before? Wouldn't it have been better if he were the same as before?

"Like before? Xie Qingqing is your Achilles' heel, and you've crossed her, understand?"

"Ah—ah—I don't want to!"

"Don't want it? Too late!"

Ji Shijie sneered and beckoned to the bodyguards, and Ji Mu was pulled away.

The room finally quieted down. Ji Shijie closed his eyes and leaned back on the sofa, thinking about that summer when the Ji family fought fiercely.

Of the five families, six children died.

The entire Ji family are insane! Absolutely all of them!

He went through a lot with them, and was even walled up in a cement wall—he almost got trapped inside!

It was that boy, who appeared like a sun god, who saved him and took him back to the Xie family.

He spent the most peaceful period of his life in the Xie family. He didn't have to fight for food like a dog or be punished every day. At that time, he finally knew what it was like to live in a normal family.

But he could never see that person again.

Those memories were both a healing balm for his parched heart and a poison that tormented him every day.

Now that he has so many sons, just as the boy said, he's already blessed with many children. Now that one is gone, that person probably won't feel like he hasn't fulfilled his promise.

As Ji Mu quietly disappeared from the city, Xie Ming once again entered Qi Hehua's consciousness.
