"...Big brother?"
Jiang Nian looked somewhat surprised.
Ji Yanli released her, took a deep breath, and took out his phone.
“I saw the security camera footage in the storage room, and it showed that it wasn’t you, Niannian, who hurt someone with a knife. So, I’ve come to apologize to you.”
There was a security camera in that storage room?
Jiang Nian's first reaction was that her observation skills had declined. If it were the old her, she would have noticed it.
Sure enough, after leaving that man and coming to the Ji family, she became more relaxed.
“…I don’t blame my older brother.” Jiang Nian shook her head.
“It’s because you don’t blame me that I feel sorry for you.” A touch of emotion flashed in Ji Yanli’s eyes.
He sighed and said, "Niannian, I don't know what you've been through in the past that has made you so used to using violence to solve problems."
“Before, you had no one to rely on, so you could only protect yourself in this way, but things are different now.”
“You have a maternal grandfather, an uncle, an elder brother, and other brothers. You have the entire Ji family to rely on.”
"Big brother hopes you won't always fight over the slightest disagreement. What if you get hurt one day?"
"If you have any grievances, speak up. If someone bullies you, just tell your older brother. He can help you resolve any issues."
Jiang Nian never expected that this was the real reason her older brother made her go back to her room to reflect on her actions today.
It's not that I blame her for causing trouble, but I don't want her to be so violent, I'm afraid something might happen to her one day.
"What if I didn't just like violence, but actually enjoyed it?"
After a long pause, Jiang Nian suddenly spoke.
Ji Yanli was taken aback, not understanding Jiang Nian's meaning: "What?"
"Big brother, I've never been a good kid."
Jiang Nian raised her head. "This has nothing to do with what kind of protection my family can give me. My life principle is that I will not offend others unless they offend me. If they do offend me, I will get back at them tenfold or a hundredfold."
"So, if someone tries to hit me, I will not only hit them back, but I will also pin them down, stomp on their head, and crush their nose until they never dare to even think of attacking me again in their entire life."
"If this is who I am, if I am such a disobedient little sister, will my older brother hate me?"
Ji Yanli never expected Jiang Nian to say such a thing.
In high society, the rich heiresses were all delicate and precious, and he had never seen anyone as ruthless as Jiang Nian.
He so frankly admitted that he wasn't a good kid.
His eyes were calm, yet revealed an untamed wildness, like a stubborn little deer.
"……Won't."
“It’s Niannian, how could I dislike her?”
Ji Yanli took a deep breath and patted Jiang Nian's head. "As long as Nian Nian isn't hurt, that's all that matters. It doesn't matter if others get hurt, your big brother can afford to compensate them anyway."
Ji Yanli originally wanted to talk to Jiang Nian and tell her not to fight anymore.
I don't know how it's turned into this: Nian Nian can hit anyone she wants, and her older brother can afford to pay for it.
Ji Yanli despised himself in his heart.
What kind of older brother educates his younger sister like this?
“However… Ji Yuwei is, after all, the daughter of Dad’s savior,” Ji Yanli frowned slightly. “Today she deliberately slandered you, but your older brother will help you handle this matter.”
Her tone softened again as she looked at Jiang Nian, "Are you hungry since you didn't eat dinner?"
"Big brother has had dinner prepared, all your favorite dishes. He'll have it delivered to your room in a bit, and big brother will eat with you."
Jiang Nian then realized that she hadn't eaten dinner in her room, and her older brother was also hungry.
-
Another room.
Ji Yuwei's arm wound had been bandaged up.
The cut wasn't actually that deep, but the bleeding looked frightening. Even so, she was still terrified of leaving a scar.
With her beauty and acting skills, once the idol drama she finished filming is released, she will definitely become an instant hit and a top female star.
Even a small scar would be considered a flaw in her.
But I've heard that there's a miracle scar-removing cream called Snow Skin Cream on the black market that can completely remove scars that aren't too severe.
Making a cut to make her older brother feel sorry for her and hate Jiang Nian is worth it.
Thinking of Jiang Nian, a smug look flashed in Ji Yuwei's eyes.
The older brother told Jiang Nian to go back to her room to reflect on her actions, and Jiang Nian didn't even get to eat dinner.
If she can make the old man Ji Linyuan and her brothers hate Jiang Nian, then it won't be long before Jiang Nian is kicked out of the Ji family.
Ji Yuwei was going to Ji Yanli's room to ask her older brother to invest more money in her drama and generate buzz in advance.
As soon as she opened the door, she saw the Ji family's butler standing outside. He greeted her, "Miss Yuwei."
"Uncle Lin? What brings you here?"
Ji Yuwei looked shy. "Did my older brother ask you to come and see me because he was worried about me? Go tell him that my injury isn't serious..."
Before she could finish speaking, the butler interrupted her: "It's like this, Miss Yuwei."
"The young master said that the Ji family also owns an apartment in the center of Jiangcheng City, which is very close to the agency where you work, Miss."
"Young Master means that Miss Yuwei, you should move over there as soon as possible."
"……What did you say?"
Ji Yuwei's smile froze on the spot, her eyes almost popping out of their sockets, she simply couldn't believe it.
"Is my brother trying to kick me out?"
"Did Jiang Nian say something to him? Did he believe whatever she said?!"
Jiang Nian must have told her older brother that she cut herself, not that she did it.
The butler glanced at her with a complicated expression: "Miss Yuwei, Miss Niannian didn't say anything."
"How could that be?!" Ji Yuwei gasped, saying as she walked out, "I'm going upstairs to find my older brother..."
