Chapter 31
Something suddenly flashed through Ji Xiangchen's mind.
When I was a child and my mother was still alive.
Because Ji Xiangyi is a girl, all the food and daily necessities her mother buys are girls' styles.
At that time, I was a child and didn’t know much. I didn’t understand that boys and girls like different things and use different things.
Why are Ji Xiangyi's things shiny and bright, while mine are different?
He thought his mother treated him differently.
Think about it now.
The situation now is probably very similar to that time. He and Ji Xiangyi were born from the same mother, but Fang Ning treats them differently.
Fang Ning didn't think deeply about why Ji Xiangchen asked her this question, she just thought that he was curious about what happened last night.
In her subconscious, if her friend was bullied by a scumbag, she would definitely go up to help.
Although Ji Xiangyi could not be considered her friend, in a sense, she was her sister-in-law. Moreover, Ji Xiangyi had helped her before.
There is family affection. It is unreasonable and unacceptable for her not to help her sister-in-law who is facing the scumbag's family alone.
Fang Ning poured herself a glass of water. Seeing Ji Xiangchen was so curious, she slowly explained, "Think about it. She is being harassed by the scumbag's family. She is a girl without any family around her. She is very helpless..."
Ji Xiangchen put down his phone and listened blankly to Fang Ning's explanation. Fang Ning's voice was quite nice, as pleasant as a clear bell, and the pitch was not too high. The youthful and clear tone made Ji Xiangchen relax unconsciously.
After hearing Fang Ning's explanation, Ji Xiangchen fell into deep thought. Was it because Ji Xiangyi was a scumbag that he treated her so well?
Isn't it because of other things?
Thinking about it carefully, Fang Ning seems to be a very enthusiastic person.
Even when he was scolded by his agent, she came to help and helped him to fight Zhou Lu off. Ji Xiangyi was cheated by a scumbag, and Fang Ning treated Ji Xiangyi like that at night. It seemed quite reasonable when you think about it.
As Ji Xiangchen thought about it, he felt much more comfortable.
So Ji Xiangchen came to a conclusion that it was not that she thought too highly of Ji Xiangyi or that she was too hypocritical, but that Ji Xiangyi was too miserable.
Ji Xiangchen's face, which had just been gloomy, improved a little. He thought for a moment, picked up the phone again, and asked vaguely, "So, you are like this because Ji Xiangyi is heartbroken."
Fang Ning nodded subconsciously: "Yes, look, you, your brother, and your younger brother are not here, Xiang Yi..."
As she spoke, Fang Ning stopped her chattering.
Why did Ji Xiangchen ask this kind of question? So, he was heartbroken? ?
Just now she clearly and strongly felt that Ji Xiangchen was in a bad mood.
I just mentioned Ji Xiangyi’s broken heart.
Thinking of this, Fang Ning put down the steaming tea in her hand, and the curiosity in her eyes could hardly be suppressed; "So, Ji Xiangchen, you are heartbroken?"
"With whom? What happened before? Was it you who cheated or your partner? Tell me about it!"
"I promise not to tell anyone?"
The more Fang Ning talked about it, the more she felt that what she said made a lot of sense, and it tasted like gossip! She knows!
Ji Xiangchen shook his head and denied three things directly: "No broken heart, no cheating, and no gossip."
He doesn't even have a girlfriend now, so heartbreak and cheating don't exist.
Without gossip and happiness, Fang Ning's eyes fell at a speed visible to the naked eye.
No, I'm not heartbroken. What were you feeling depressed about just now?
Compared to the disappointed Fang Ning, Ji Xiangchen's mood improved. He stopped playing with his phone and ignored his teammates who were still cursing in the canyon! Hang up the machine!
Then he sat up straight, poured himself a cup of tea, and filled Fang Ning's cup with tea. He slowly savored the expensive tea that Ji Xiangnian had brought back from somewhere, with a relaxed and happy expression.
Fang Ning was a little confused by Ji Xiangchen's change in expression. He just looked like he was ignoring her and said "leave me alone", but now he looked like a gentle, approachable and good young man.
Fang Ning couldn’t understand it, she really couldn’t understand it.
A man’s heart is as deep as a needle in the sea. Don’t guess, don’t guess!
———
In the United States, in a large villa in a private community, Ji Xiangnian was coming out of the swimming pool. He was clinging to the iron ladder with his left hand, his muscular upper body exposed, and his straight and powerful long legs were slowly emerging from the water.
He currently lives in his private villa in the United States, which has a large lawn and swimming pool.
The weather here in the United States is very hot. Ji Xiangnian has the habit of running in the morning. He just got up and finished running. He was sweating, so he took a swim.
Coming up to the shore, Ji Xiangnian took the towel next to him with a relaxed and happy expression.
After being busy for a few days, I finally finished all the work and everything is over.
However, due to weather reasons in recent days, flights back to China will not be available until the day after tomorrow.
I can only book flights for the day after tomorrow.
The flight back home has been booked. It's a rare opportunity to go abroad, so I thought of giving myself a few days off to travel around here and buy some business trip gifts for Xiang Chen and Xiang Yi, as well as some gifts for Fang Ning.
After all, she had helped him a lot. He was going to a parent-teacher meeting for Xiang Zhou, and there would be a banquet afterwards. No matter how he thought about it, he should express his gratitude. So he told his assistant to go out today and help him turn down all the invitations today.
However, before he even left the house, his subordinate and good friend Gu Ming came to visit him.
Ji Xiangnian was wiping his wet hair with a towel when Gu Ming's cheerful and excited voice rang out: "Director Ji, my Chairman Ji! I'm finally free now, and you're free too, let's go out and have some fun!"
Immediately afterwards, a flashy man wearing a flowery shirt, flashy clothes, and sunglasses, hugging a beautiful woman, slowly appeared in front of Ji Xiangnian.
Ji Xiangnian didn't even move his eyes and continued with his actions.
Of course, just because he himself didn’t react much doesn’t mean that others didn’t react.
The moment the woman who was hugged by Gu Ming saw his strong body, her eyes widened, and then she leaned close to Gu Ming's ear and said something.
Gu Ming couldn't help but look at Ji Xiangnian, who was only wearing a pair of swimming trunks, and smiled obscenely: "Hey, Chairman Ji, what's the use of having a good-looking body now? There's no beauty around you. You're about to return to China, come out and play with me now!"
"My dear's sister group is mostly made up of single beauties. With your conditions, if you stand there, I don't know how many beauties will be attracted to you..."
Ji Xiangnian and Gu Ming have known each other for more than ten years. Gu Ming is Ji Xiangnian's junior in college. He is very capable and joined Ji's company through campus recruitment when he graduated. Because of his outstanding ability, he climbed from a small administrative position to the management level in less than five years.
Later, when Ji wanted to expand his business in the United States, he transferred Gu Ming to the United States.
Gu Ming is a capable person, but he is too romantic. To put it nicely, he is romantic, but to put it bluntly, he is lustful.
After so many years, Ji Xiangnian already knew what kind of person he was, and also knew that he couldn't spit out ivory from a dog's mouth, so in order to avoid hearing too much dirty words later.
Ji Xiangnian stopped what he was doing and glanced at Gu Ming indifferently.
The latter very tactfully raised his hand and closed his mouth, and Ji Xiangnian then continued with his actions.
Without paying any attention to Gu Ming, he turned and walked into the villa.
Gu Ming let go of the hand that was hugging the beauty, and hurriedly followed Ji Xiangnian, chattering: "No, Chairman Ji, President Ji, Ji Xiangnian, I am introducing a beauty to you, can you, a single dog, give me some reaction?"
Ji Xiangnian ignored Gu Ming's nagging and walked into the bedroom, wrapped himself in a nice bath towel, walked to the refrigerator, took out two cans of beer, and threw them to Gu Ming who was still nagging: "Okay, drink something first and shut up."
After he finished speaking, Ji Xiangnian cleanly closed the cold beer bottle cap, tilted his head back to drink the beer, his Adam's apple rolling.
Seeing that Ji Xiangnian ignored him, Gu Ming stretched out his long legs and sat down on the sofa. He also opened the beer bottle cap and started drinking the beer.
Ji Xiangnian also sat on the sofa, his movements casual, his tone calm and distant: "Tell me, what exactly do you want to see me about today?"
Gu Ming placed the empty beer bottle on the marble table and said in a teasing tone, "What's the matter? I came here to have fun with you. You're a single brick-and-mortar man in your thirties. What's the point of working every day? It's a rare opportunity to come to the United States. Come on, I'll go out and play with you!"
Ji Xiangnian glanced at Gu Ming calmly. His words "play" should be put in quotation marks, how could he not know that.
"No."
The neat and clear answer made Gu Ming, who was looking at Ji Xiangnian, look complicated and fell into deep thought.
Sure enough, are the things circulating in the company true?
What kind of problems does Ji Xiangnian have?
Ji Xiangnian is a man who is decisive and ruthless in his actions. He is a man who can carry the Ji family on his shoulders. He is in his thirties, worth hundreds of billions, has long eyebrows, deep eyes, and a straight figure. Not to mention women, even he, a man, is willing to bow down to him under his suit pants.
But a man with such conditions and status, in his thirties, has never been in a relationship, has never married, and has never been seen going out at night with any woman.
Therefore, a rumor spread among the top leaders of Ji family: Ji Xiangnian, the man who carried Ji family on his shoulders, he! no!
Thinking of this, Gu Ming's eyes became more complicated, but rumors are always rumors, so in order to verify the authenticity of the rumor, he came here today.
Now, he has come to the conclusion that the rumors are true and this man is really not capable!
Gu Ming struggled desperately, looking at Ji Xiangnian with hesitation: "Director Ji, what exactly is going on with you that makes you so anxious that you don't even have time to go out and play."
How could Ji Xiangnian, a powerful and strategic figure in the business world, not know those rumors? He immediately saw through what Gu Ming was doing here.
Ji Xiangnian placed the bottle on the table, casually, and sat there, playing with it with his right hand.
Yihua
A plain white ring on the ring finger of his left hand.
The best way to break rumors is never to avoid them, but to face them.
At this time, Gu Ming finally discovered the ring on Ji Xiangnian's ring finger.
“!!!!”
Generally speaking, single men rarely wear rings.
Moreover, when he returned to China some time ago, he did not see Ji Xiangnian wearing a ring, but now he is actually wearing a ring!
So the old man Ji Xiangnian got married!
The gossip in Gu Ming's eyes could hardly be suppressed.
Wait, that's impossible. Gu Mingyou felt it was unlikely. He returned to China a month ago, and during that time, he didn't hear that Ji Xiangnian had a girlfriend, or someone to marry. Getting married in a month? Which woman is so courageous? How dare you marry this useless man!
I admire you so much!
Marrying him will bury your whole life's happiness!
Ji Xiangnian didn't know that his action not only failed to make the rumors disappear, but also made Gu Ming fall into strange thoughts.
Gu Ming stared at the ring on Ji Xiangnian's left ring finger and said blankly:
"So, Mr. Ji, are you married?"
Ji Xiangnian didn't say anything. Under Gu Ming's questioning gaze, he slowly picked up the phone on the table, opened the contact, and called Fang Ning.
