Ji Ci, who had been pushed around in circles by bodyguards in the hospital garden, had become numb.
Even yawned and prepared to go to sleep.
At this moment, he suddenly felt that the bodyguard stopped moving, and after a moment, the bodyguard quickly changed direction.
They were moving around the hospital at a very fast speed, and before he could react they were already waiting at the elevator.
Compared to the speed of wandering around, the bodyguard's speed at this moment was as if there was a ghost behind him.
From moving at a snail's pace to speeding now, anyone who gets in the way may be thrown away.
The bodyguard seemed to have been impatient for a long time, and now that it was finally over, he was filled with energy.
Feeling the wind caused by the fast speed around him, Ji Ci's mouth twitched. This was the first time that he wanted to be an unscrupulous boss and deduct the bodyguard's salary.
However, he rejected the idea as soon as it came to his mind. It was just something he could think about. If he really wanted to do it, he believed that the bodyguards would be resentful enough to beat him, the skinning boss, to death with one punch.
After all, he was just sitting in a wheelchair and didn't have to exert any effort, while the bodyguard was pushing him forward without stopping for a moment, without any slacking off.
Thinking in this way, instead of cutting corners, I should give them some bonus as a consolation.
After all, his grandmother taught him that they were capitalists, not slave owners.
There is no need to squeeze employees' living costs to achieve some strange goals.
After all, they signed a labor contract and were paid for their labor, not an indenture, so there is no saying that anyone is inferior.
The elevator door opened with a ding, the bodyguard pushed Ji Ci back to the ward, and then left the scene at an extremely fast speed.
Ji Ci was a little confused. He turned around and asked Assistant Sun who was following behind him, "What's wrong with him?"
Assistant Sun had a perfect smile on his face. "Oh, his daughter is sick, but he has to work overtime due to work arrangements. I guess he went to see his daughter now."
Ji Ci glanced at the time, "Is that so? In the future, just approve his leave in this situation, no need to ask me, you can handle it. For today, give him an extra quarterly bonus as compensation."
"Okay, boss!"
Assistant Sun stepped forward to help Ji Ci up, but Ji Ci ignored him and stood up.
"Do you really think I'm useless?"
Assistant Sun turned his head and smiled secretly, "Then I won't bother you."
Old Madam Ji was half leaning against the head of the bed and opened her eyes slightly when she heard their movements.
"You're back?"
Ji Ci felt guilty and didn't dare to look at Madam Ji, "I'm sorry to have troubled you to make this trip in the middle of the night."
Madam Ji snorted coldly and threw the pillow at him. "How old are you? And you still need an old bone like me to do it myself!"
Ji Ci steadily caught the pillow and put it back into Madam Ji's hands, "If you're not satisfied, you can give me a beating."
Madam Ji rolled her eyes at him and said, "What a promising young man! Let me make it clear to you that Shen Mingzhu is no different from my own granddaughter. She is the only one I recognize."
Ji Ci rubbed his brow helplessly, "You're really cruel, you've been thinking about having a granddaughter for so many years, right?"
Madam Ji continued to glare at her. "Of course not. I have been looking forward to this for so many years. If it weren't for your father's disappointment, I would..."
Ji Ci's eyes dimmed instantly, and his expression became serious, "How do we deal with Second Uncle?"
"Oh, that old man didn't forget to plot against me before he died. If it weren't for his broken will, how could this illegitimate child enter the Ji family?"
Ji Ci also sighed, "The death of my father and mother back then was probably related to my second uncle's family."
Madam Ji sneered, "You know how to deal with this shady little thing, but that guy has been dormant for many years. On the surface, he seems to be calm, but behind the scenes, he might be doing something shameful. You know the truth that you should either leave it alone or uproot it."
Ji Ci nodded slightly, "I understand. I will never allow others to sleep soundly beside my bed. I will never follow my father's old path."
Madam Ji's eyes were filled with pain. "It's also my fault. I taught Fengyun to be too upright, so that he had no defense against that old man. Both father and son committed suicide for love. It's ridiculous!"
Ji Ci sat down next to Madam Ji and held her hand. "It's different. Ji Lin, that hypocritical hypocrite, was unfaithful to his marriage. If it weren't for your kindness, he should have been kicked out of the Ji family long ago instead of occupying your husband's position and enjoying the benefits of the Ji family. Otherwise, as an adopted son of a side branch, is he worthy of the surname Ji?"
"Oh, it's because of his great acting skills that even my father, who has a sharp eye, was deceived by him."
There was a gleam of light in Madam Ji's eyes. She tilted her head to look out the window, where the faint moonlight was shining.
She seemed to remember her father calling her softly when she was young, "Lan'er."
Since when, no one knows the name Ji Lan anymore. Although she was once the head of the entire Ji family, outsiders always attribute her achievements to her husband Ji Lin who married into the family.
Lan, which means to turn the tide, and she, just like this word, has saved crises and turned things around many times in the development of the family.
At that time, she thought that the eyes of the world were always bright and people would always understand that she was the one who held the power. However, she devoted herself to working day and night for the development of the company.
However, Ji Lin used her name and collaborated with those unscrupulous media to hype the situation, making everyone think that she had taken away Ji Lin's credit.
It’s ridiculous to think about it. Why do they think that the development and prosperity of the family is something men should do?
When will this absurd theory that all the achievements of women are attributed to men stop?
Who says that women have no other meaning besides taking care of the family?
Gender should never be a stereotype to measure the actual value of a person's contribution.
The selection of the head of the Ji family has always been based on the ability, regardless of gender or whether he is a direct bloodline.
This is also the real reason why this family has been able to stand firm for many years.
"Don't worry, when this is all over, I will personally expose Ji Lin's lies. As for those in the clan who have forgotten their roots, their privileges should be taken back."
At this point, Madam Ji finally relaxed her brows and smiled, "Good child, grandma has always felt sorry for you. She even made you suffer so much because she was too ashamed to tell you some of the truth."
Ji Ci grabbed Madam Ji's hand and put it against his face, "How could it be? I am very fortunate to be trained by you. If you were not always by my side to give me advice, I would have been flattered by the compliments from the outside world and finally assimilated. I was taught by you personally, and I will fulfill your regrets for you."
Madam Ji snorted, "When did you get the hang of it, kid? I almost fell for your tricks!"
Ji Ci's expression was firm, "Because I suddenly realized that my previous escape was only because I was unwilling to admit my own incompetence. The real monster has always been the fear deep in my heart, not the thing itself."
“True strength is to face fear. You can’t be afraid to bloom just because a flower is destroyed by wind and rain, right?”
