Chapter 151
Ji Tangchun had never seen such a scene before.
She and her brother have always been the favorites of the family. Because they are outstanding and good-looking, the elders are very kind to them. However, since her brother returned to China and gave up studying medicine, the elders have changed.
Now she accidentally discovered her brother's secret. She originally wanted to help keep it secret for the rest of her life, but there were rumors outside that the elder sister of the Zhong family was fickle. She was worried that her brother would be seduced by this woman, so she told her parents.
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, my parents were furious and called my brother to come back.
"Brother." Ji Tangchun felt a little guilty, "I didn't know it would turn out like this."
"I'm just worried that something might happen to you."
Ji Hebai glanced at her and sighed: "I knew this day would come. It was my fault. I should have confessed it earlier. This way, I wouldn't have made you worry."
Ji Tangchun looked up at him in surprise.
Is this still her cold brother? He is so kind and gentle. She hasn't seen such a gentle brother in a long time.
"Kneel down!" Ji's father shouted angrily, "You rebellious son, how dare you look around?! Kneel down in the ancestral hall!"
Everyone in the Ji family was startled by the shout, except Ji Hebai, who stood still as a mountain.
Father Ji always felt that his authority was being challenged: "Rebellious son, I'm not dead yet, what do you want to do!?"
Ji Hebai remained motionless. After a while, he raised his eyes and said calmly, "I'm not wrong. There's no need to kneel before our ancestors."
"You——" Father Ji was very angry.
Ji Hebai's tone became more resolute: "I told you before that the cancellation of the engagement was a misunderstanding. It was caused by the sisters-in-law of the Zhong family. Why don't you agree with me dating Zhong Qiao?"
“Why don’t we agree?”
Ji's father laughed in anger.
"Do you think this is just a child's play? You two are together because you like each other. Have you ever considered that this matter is no longer as simple as breaking off the engagement? After all, our two families have separated your grandfather's life, but you are still obsessed with that woman. Your grandfather would probably wake up laughing in the underworld because he has a grandson like you."
Ji Tangchun shrank his neck.
Dad is definitely angry, and very angry. From childhood to adulthood, I have only seen him get so angry a few times.
Even if I don’t die this time, I’ll be skinned alive.
Ji Hebai refused to give in. "Grandpa is Grandpa, and Zhong Qiao is Zhong Qiao. It's your prejudice that you insist on entangle these two things together. With Grandpa's intelligence, I believe he liked Zhong Qiao, and that means Zhong Qiao is worthy. Not only do you not believe Grandpa, but you also insist on blaming Zhong Qiao for Grandpa's death."
His words made everyone present change their expressions again and again.
"Okay." Father Ji actually laughed coldly and said to the pale mother Ji, "Look at the good son you raised."
"This military uniform is more impressive than mine."
Ji's mother had long since stopped talking.
Returning to China, giving up medicine, and then joining the army, each one was a top priority. She was busy with all of it and offended countless people. As a result, before one wave of troubles was over, another wave of troubles arose. He Bai actually became the battalion commander. When she heard the news, she was shocked.
He was really good at finding trouble for her.
"This has nothing to do with Mom." Ji Hebai's face turned cold.
"You still know she is your mother." Father Ji said angrily, "What were you doing earlier?"
Silence, still silence.
"Get out of here." Ji's father got angry when he saw him. "Since you are determined to be with that woman, then don't come back to the Ji family. We will just pretend that we don't have a son like you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ji's father's expression froze for a moment, as if he was frightened by his own words. But words spoken are like water spilled, so he gritted his teeth and turned his head away.
But in my heart, I was betting that this child would not be so stubborn and insist on his own opinion.
"Dad." Ji Tangchun's long-suppressed emotions burst out at this moment, "Dad, how can you say that to me? I just like the Zhong family sister. If it really doesn't work out, let them be together."
Ji's mother was annoyed by her quarrel and pulled her over: "Tangchun, don't interfere in this matter. You are still young and don't know the seriousness of it."
Ji Tangchun could only sob and cry alone.
Ji Hebai looked back at the Ji family. These were his relatives, including his parents who had raised him to adulthood. How could he not feel heartbroken when he was driven away by his own relatives?
But the plan continues. If we don't give the person hiding in the dark some weaknesses, how can he show up?
Ji Hebai took a deep breath and left resolutely.
Behind him, Ji Tangchun's heartbreaking voice: "Brother——"
Father Ji tapped the table with his index finger, making a slow and powerful sound. He looked at the departing figure with great patience, and finally let out a gritted sneer from between his teeth.
Obviously.
He and everyone else had made the wrong bet, completely wrong.
This is the child of his Ji family. He is very stubborn in nature, just like his grandfather when he was young. He is always polite in front of outsiders, and only shows some sincerity when facing things he really cares about.
She cares more about a divorced woman than him.
Does the Ji family still rely on him?
ridiculous.
"Xiao Shen, bring me some paper and pen." Father Ji pondered for a moment and secretly made up his mind that he would let He Bai leave the military camp no matter what.
Xiao Shen quickly took out a pen.
Father Ji twirled the pen with his fingers, paused, thought, and then scratched the paper with the sharp end of the pen, writing a clumsy beginning.
If you are not satisfied, tear it up and rewrite it.
Cross it out, tear it up, and rewrite it.
Over and over again.
Until his brows furrowed.
To be honest, after he sent his children abroad, the number of times they met, except when they were young, was very few.
During the time in the compound, he was busy dealing with his parents and had no chance to be alone with his child, nor did he have time to ask questions clearly. Now that the child has grown up and has his own ideas, it seems normal for him to rebel against him.
Forget it, give him some more time.
Maybe he'll figure it out.

Early the next morning, Zhong Qiao put on a coat and prepared to continue to monitor the garment production process. Unexpectedly, he fell when he was about to go out for a bike ride while holding the design drawings.
"Hey, kid, I don't know who you look like."
Mr. Zhong Xu was extremely anxious. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Zhong Qiao almost slipping and hurried forward to help her.
But he had never been so close to Zhong Qiao before. He actually grabbed the clothes on Zhong Qiao's shoulders and pulled her down from the stairs.
"Dad." Zhong Qiao's clothes were pulled out of shape by his father, but he couldn't help laughing at his father's clumsy appearance. "Your way of helping people is so unique."
Mrs. Zhong, who witnessed all this, laughed so hard that she couldn't straighten her back.
Mr. Zhong said with a stern face: "You are becoming more and more disrespectful, kid."
Zhong Qiao put the pile of blueprints in the cart basket and walked towards the warehouse absentmindedly while pushing the cart.
Maybe it was because it rained yesterday, so the weather is still a bit cold today.
The autumn air and rain fell on the steps, condensing into transparent thin ice, and where the moisture arose, some smooth moss grew.
Zhong Qiao had a smooth journey and then parked the car near the warehouse.
