To everyone's surprise, Xia Shiyan immediately reacted strongly by shouting.
Ji Jianhong finally realized something was wrong and pressed down on her shoulder, asking, "What's wrong with you? What did you see?"
"I saw it...I saw it..." Xia Shiyan was about to say what she saw, but suddenly stopped talking.
I can't tell!
There's no evidence for what just happened, so it's uncertain whether she made a mistake.
If it's true, she exposed Ji Minxiu's secret. If he comes seeking revenge, she's doomed.
If she's mistaken, her words could potentially harm Brother Ji.
Yes, we can't say things carelessly!
She needs to double-check.
"What did you see?" Seeing that she didn't speak, Ji Jianhong urged her anxiously.
"I saw Brother Ji hugging that woman. I'm so angry. I don't want to marry him anymore." Xia Shiyan finally calmed down and said, pretending to be angry.
Ji Jianhong cursed Xia Shiyan inwardly for being ungrateful, but on the surface he remained patient and said, "Sister Shiyan, my third brother is so outstanding, it's normal for girls to like him. You're not the kind of person who gives up easily, are you?"
Xia Shiyan wanted to say no, but suddenly looked at Ji Jianhong suspiciously, "Second Young Master Ji, you seem to want me to marry Ji Minxiu even more than I do?"
Caught off guard by the question, Ji Jianhong hurriedly denied it, saying, "Of course not. I just saw that you and Third Brother grew up together as childhood sweethearts, and it would be a pity if you weren't together."
"Ah, is that so...? It is indeed a pity..."
In the past, Xia Shiyan would definitely have been sad and resentful, but now that she thought Ji Minxiu might be a monster, she really couldn't feel any attraction to him.
"Yes, so we must persevere. It's normal for men, especially outstanding men, to be coveted. Don't be discouraged, Shiyan. I believe you are the most special one in Third Brother's heart."
Ji Jianhong continued, speaking with self-righteousness.
Xia Shiyan's expression changed slightly, and she chuckled dryly, "Hmm, Second Young Master Ji is really enthusiastic, hehe..."
If Ji Minxiu really is a monster, she doesn't want to be targeted!
Moreover, she used to be controlled by her emotions and thought that Ji Jianhong understood her very well, but now that she has broken free of these emotions, she finds his behavior quite strange.
It's like she really hopes she can be with Ji Minxiu.
However, she and Ji Jianhong were not familiar with each other, and she did not believe that someone could be kind to another person for no reason.
Unless, there's some ulterior motive!
It's obvious that Li Jianhong doesn't love her.
If it's not about feelings, then what else is there about her that's worth taking advantage of?
She couldn't figure it out, but she didn't show anything unusual. She smiled and said, "Yes, thank you, Second Young Master Ji. We've arrived home. Just drop me off by the roadside."
"Okay, don't be too sad. Feel free to contact me if you need anything," Ji Jianhong said with a smile, like a harmless older brother.
"Okay, thank you." Xia Shiyan said and hurriedly got out of the car.
"Second Young Master, that little bastard has already voluntarily withdrawn from the succession election, why do you still need to pretend to be friendly with this woman?" After Xia Shiyan left, the driver looked at Ji Jianhong and asked.
"Hmph, that little bastard does have some self-awareness, but my good uncle hasn't given up yet."
Ji Jianhong said coldly, "We still can't let our guard down against Ji Minxiu. It would be best if he could cut off his own escape route."
"But that little bastard always does things his own way, and his decisions are hard to control," the driver said worriedly.
“He’s not stupid, so naturally he wouldn’t want to marry a useless, foolish woman, but I can find a way to force him to marry her.” Ji Jianhong’s eyes narrowed, and a cold smile curled at the corner of his lips.
Ji Minxiu was unaware of the situation here. After returning to the villa, he told Assistant Lin everything.
"So... all those things you asked for before were sent to the Great Sheng Dynasty!"
Assistant Lin's doubts were finally answered, and he wasn't too shocked.
Instead, he said with some disappointment, "Oh, I thought you had a girl you liked. It turns out it was just ordinary financial assistance."
"Cough..." Ji Minxiu didn't know what to say for a moment.
If it were before, he would have nodded confidently, but now, he felt somewhat guilty.
However, he didn't say much. He just changed his clothes and had his assistant Lin take him to the yacht club owned by the company.
He had already informed them before he arrived that the luxury cruise ship, which could accommodate up to 500 people, was not currently in use.
"You stay here and block them from coming over."
Standing beside the cruise ship, Ji Minxiu instructed his assistant Lin, "If anyone comes, just say I've taken it myself and will be back soon."
"good."
Assistant Lin nodded, then swallowed hard. "You mean, you're going to bring such a large cruise ship directly over?"
"Mm." Ji Minxiu nodded and then disappeared.
Looking at the suddenly empty space in front of him, Assistant Lin swallowed hard.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed that time travel actually existed!
【Da Sheng Dynasty】
"Splash..."
Just as everyone in the sea was worrying about the future, a loud noise suddenly came from ahead, and the sea surface began to surge violently.
A sudden wave slammed them into the sea, and after struggling for a while, they finally managed to resurface.
"What's going on?"
What just happened?
"Why are there such big waves all of a sudden?"
"Hey, look, what's that?"
"Is...is it a ship?"
