Twenty minutes later, at the Ji family villa.
Ye Lan looked at Ji Yanli coming in from outside and the three members of the Lin family following behind him, stood up to greet them, and asked with a puzzled look on her face: "Yanli, what's going on? Why did you come back with Qianya's parents?"
She paused, then slowly expressed her suspicions, "Could it be that the car accident you mentioned happened to be one between you two?"
Ji Yanli glanced in Ji Qianya's direction with a fierce look, then quickly retracted his gaze and looked at Ye Lan, saying, "No, I went out to pick them up."
"Go pick them up?" Ye Lan frowned, almost confused. "But didn't they come here on their own? Why do you have to go pick them up? Isn't that too much trouble?"
"Mom, come over and sit down and talk." Ji Yanli said.
"Oh, okay." Ye Lan suppressed her doubts and looked at Lin Hao and his wife. She put on a proper smile and said, "Qianya's parents, right? Come and sit down first."
"Trouble." Lin Hao glanced at Ji Qianya who was standing there without saying anything, and then he took his wife and children and followed Ye Lan towards the sofa.
After Ye Lan sat down, she opened her mouth and was about to talk about Ji Qianya when she heard Ji Yanli's voice, "Mom, don't worry, wait until big brother comes back. It's almost here, only a few minutes."
"Hmm?" Ye Lan was slightly stunned, then came to her senses, looked up at him, and asked in confusion: "What is your brother doing back?"
Ji Yanli didn't reply to her. He looked at the Lin family couple who were sitting nervously and said softly, "Uncle, Auntie, I'm sorry, you guys should have some tea and rest for a while. We'll wait for someone else."
Lin Hao took the teacup from the servant and nodded, "Okay, it's okay."
Lin Yan did not show any discomfort. He looked around the magnificent living room and had a deeper understanding of how wealthy the Ji family was. It seemed that the leather sofa he was sitting on was worth tens of millions. No wonder that woman didn't want to come back no matter what.
He raised his eyes again and looked at Ji Qianya who was sitting diagonally opposite him. A hint of irony flashed in his eyes. From the moment she entered the door until now, she had not even said hello to them, nor even looked at them straight in the eye. It was really disgusting to see.
If they were not in someone else's house now, he would have started cursing a long time ago.
Ji Qianya noticed the way Lin Yan looked at her and frowned slightly. She thought that this must be her younger brother. He looked good, but he looked so sloppy that he looked like an uneducated street urchin.
Seeing that Ji Qianya was also looking at him, Lin Yan glared back at her without giving in, opened his mouth slightly, and said silently: Disgusting.
Although Ji Qianya didn't understand spoken language, she knew that what he said was definitely not good, so she proudly withdrew her gaze and stopped looking at him.
For a moment, everyone was silent, each with their own thoughts, and the living room fell into an eerie silence.
…
Soon, Ji Jingchen walked in from outside and finally broke the deadlock.
"Brother, I'm back."
Ji Jingchen nodded slightly, walked to the seat next to Ji Yanli and sat down, glancing at everyone present, "What's wrong? Why did you suddenly call me back? And what's going on with Xiaoshu?"
Ji Yanli's gaze fell on Ji Qianya, and he slowly said, "When I went to pick up my uncle and aunt, Ji Qianya's parents, today, I had a car accident on the way back. But this was not a simple accident, but a deliberate murder."
"Also, I specifically observed the truck driver. He didn't seem to be out of the ordinary. He didn't seem to be drunk or sleepy and driving against traffic."
He paused, looked at Lin Hao, and continued, "Uncle, you and I are in the front row, so we should have seen it clearly. The other party is obviously coming for us."
Lin Hao nodded, his expression becoming serious after hearing what he said. "Yes, I saw it very clearly at the time. The other party didn't slow down at all. They just wanted to crash straight into us."
Ji Jingchen's eyes narrowed. "According to what you said, if a large truck hit us at high speed, shouldn't you have just..."
He didn't say the rest of the words, but everyone knew what it was.
Lin Hao clenched the teacup in his hand. "We still haven't figured it out. The moment the other party hit us, it suddenly stopped. It was as if someone was blocking the front of the truck, holding it up with both hands, forcing it to stop..."
Ji Yanli suddenly said something without any context, "Brother, it's Xiaoshu's jade pendant."
Others might not understand what he meant, but Ji Jingchen immediately understood and changed the subject, "Yan Li, do you have any suspicions now?"
This time, Ji Yanli's gaze fell accurately on Ji Qianya, "Of course there is, don't you think so, Qianya?"
Ji Qianya had been sweating profusely listening to their conversation. Now, when her name was suddenly called, she was startled. Her heart instantly rose to her throat and she swallowed hard, "Second brother, what?"
Ji Yanli's eyes were cold, "You hired someone to get rid of your biological parents, right? That way you can continue to stay in the Ji family."
Ye Lan couldn't sit still anymore after hearing this, and stood up from the sofa, "Yan Li, what are you talking about? How could Qian Ya do such a thing?"
Lin Hao exchanged a glance with Zhou Xia beside him, their eyes full of shock. It was obvious that he believed too much that his own daughter would kill them.
Zhou Xia frowned and said, "Master Ji, is there any misunderstanding..."
Lin Hao nodded, "Yes, Master Ji, this kind of thing also requires evidence."
Lin Yan sneered, his sharp eyes falling on Ji Qianya, and suddenly said, "Dad, Mom, I think what Brother Ji said makes sense. Since she doesn't want to come back and doesn't want to recognize us, it's because she can't bear to leave the wealth and glory here."
"But now they want to drive her away, so she has to do everything she can to stay. The easiest way is to kill you."
"This way, Brother Ji's family will feel sympathy for her after seeing her suddenly lose her parents, and they'll soften their hearts and let her stay here. After all, they don't lack the money to support her."
"Lin Yan, what are you talking about? How could your sister do such a thing?" Zhou Xia scolded, "Children should not interrupt adults when they are talking."
Lin Yan couldn't understand, "Mom, how could someone who doesn't even recognize his own biological parents not do such a thing?"
Zhou Xia pursed her lips and said, "Lin Yan, shut up!"
"Okay, if you don't believe me, forget it."
Lin Yan shrugged his shoulders and simply turned his head away and stopped talking.
