Chapter 357 Extra 3: Birthday Gift
"Aunt, I don't know what happened. He asked me for help. At that time, he just wanted some connections. I helped him to make connections since he had been with me for a few days."
"I didn't expect that things would turn out like this after their family's situation improved." Ji Lingxuan explained hurriedly.
"Wanyi, let's talk about it when we get back." Seeing that Ji Wanyi was still angry, Hongkong said immediately.
Ji Wanyi stopped what was about to come out of his mouth.
"good."
Family disgrace should not be made public. The suffering of that girl’s family has nothing to do with Ji Lingxuan directly.
As for how the Ji family will deal with Ji Lingxuan, that is the Ji family’s own business.
They deal with it themselves behind closed doors.
Ji Wanyi couldn't bear to watch the following performance, so she left early and the party ended early.
"Wanyi, I understand how you feel. Times are changing, and so are people. Your brothers have already started families, and they have other families besides you."
"They'll still be there for you, but they have to think about the rest of their family too."
"Given their strength, their lifespan is at most a few thousand years. A thousand years is enough for them to protect their offspring and reproduce for many generations."
"But your life is long, and time is but a passing cloud to you."
"I can accompany you for a little longer, but not until the end. You will be alone in the end."
"You are still young after all. Everything in front of you, the throne and your family, are just part of your life."
"If you can be more open-minded and not take it too seriously, it won't be so painful to divest yourself of it later."
"The Ji family has taken root in Blue Star and is already the largest family on Blue Star. And you are the emperor of the empire. It is hard to say where the relationship between these two forces will go after thousands of years."
"You still have family ties, so you can consider them, but if you go too far, it will only hurt the relationship between you."
"Let's put this matter aside. Ji Lingxuan will be left to her parents to educate."
Standing in the corridor outside the Imperial Palace.
Hongkong persuaded Ji Wanyi.
"Father, I understand. As a family member, I will give them the necessary reminders, but I will not make decisions for them."
"Let's go, it should be time for dinner."
All her relatives had dinner with her on her birthday, which was just a long-standing habit.
In the palace that belongs only to her.
The atmosphere was a bit weird, Ji Yulin and Ji Yunfeng were still fighting.
Ji Yingchen was playing chess with Tianchuan, and Mo was just watching.
Zuo Yu, Yi Shuo, Yan Ruo and others were playing cards.
Ji Huaiying and Youyue were comforting the depressed Ji Lingxuan.
Sister-in-law Gu Yunhan was scolding her eldest son Ji Chenglan.
The reason was very simple. After hearing what happened before, Ji Chenglan also felt that his sister was becoming more and more outrageous and unrestrained, so he said a few words.
Ji Lingxuan was already in a bad mood, and of course she was even more unhappy when her younger brother scolded her.
In a fit of excitement, they started arguing in the hall.
Ji Lingxuan kept crying and was taken to the other side by her parents to be comforted.
Ji Yingchen saw it, but said nothing and did nothing.
The eldest sister-in-law felt embarrassed and grabbed her eldest son's ear and took him aside to teach him a lesson.
When Ji Wanyi and Hongkong came in, the atmosphere was still harmonious.
"Everyone is here, but I'm late."
"No more words, let's eat."
Ji Wanyi walked to the dining table and sat down.
Since they are all relatives and friends, there is no need to arrange seats, everyone can sit wherever they like.
"Auntie, happy birthday." The little fat boy, whose face was pinched red, ran to her and handed her a box.
"Thank you, Yulin." Ji Wanyi opened the box and found a wooden sculpture inside. It was of her, and some corners still had traces of carving left.
Some parts were not handled so well, but Ji Wanyi liked it very much. This was what the fat boy had prepared for her a long time ago.
"Aunt, this is my gift. I found it when I was out training with the imperial army. I didn't even give it to my dad on his birthday." Ji Chenglan walked up to her holding an exquisite small gift box.
Ji Chenglan is seventeen years old this year and has grown very tall.
He was the eldest son and was placed with high hopes by Ji Yingchen. He was sent to the army for training when he was very young. After he turned fourteen, Ji Yingchen used his connections to send him to the imperial legion for training.
Because of his upbringing, he looks heroic, masculine, and righteous.
His strength is also the strongest among the younger generation of the Ji family, and now he is even stronger than his father.
He is quite capable and has fully inherited his father's wisdom.
On the surface, he looks very honest and reliable, but in fact he is a black-hearted person.
But just like Ji Yingchen, he has nothing to say to his family.
Ji Wan opened the box with a smile. She was quite looking forward to it.
The moment the box is opened, a gentle fragrance wafts out, and everyone who smells it feels as if a pair of gentle hands are soothing their tense nerves.
"It's the Slow God Pearl. You're quite thoughtful." The knowledgeable seniors knew what it was the moment they smelled it.
The Slowing God Pearl grows in the body of an extremely rare star beast and is difficult to come by. It can not only soothe the mind, but also nourish the soul if used for a long time.
Her soul had already merged with her body, so there was no need for the nourishment of the Soul-Slowing Pearl.
But the child meant well, so there was no need for her to pour cold water on him. She could just accept it happily.
"Aunt, happy birthday." Ji Lingxuan walked up to her with something in her hand, feeling a little nervous.
She held a long white jade box in her hand.
Ji Wan still had a smile on her face and her eyes were gentle.
Taking the box, Ji Wanyi opened it with the same anticipation.
Lying quietly inside is a rolled-up Chinese painting.
"Can I open it now?" Ji Wan looked up and asked Ji Lingxuan.
Ji Lingxuan nodded immediately. She also hoped that her aunt could see her gift first.
When the scroll was unfolded, it was full of paintings of her in different periods of her life.
There are images of her being held by her mother as a child; her youthful appearance in junior high and high school; and the image of her freezing the ocean to prevent monsters from coming ashore during the crisis on Blue Star; and the image of her standing in front of Blue Star with a sword.
Of course, more of it was when Ji Wanyi accompanied her when she was a child.
"Aunt, I wanted to wish you eternal youth, but your youth is eternal, so I wish you eternal happiness and joy."
"Okay, thank you. I'm naturally happy when you're all well."
There was no mention of what happened before.
Ji Lingxuan sat back in her seat.
Then everyone looked at Ji Yunfeng, the only one left.
"Why are you all looking at me? It's not like I've forgotten."
"Aunt, happy birthday." Ji Yunfeng stood up and walked behind Ji Wanyi. Suddenly, a golden necklace appeared on his hand, and Ji Yunfeng put it on her.
He designed and built it himself.
"You have the same potential as your sister Ling Xuan." Ji Wanyi said unhappily.
"Aunt, I must be better than her." Ji Yunfeng immediately said in a playful manner.
Then Ji Lingxuan rolled her eyes.
"Okay, let's eat." The gifts from others had already been placed in her room, so there was no need to look at them now.
