Ji Xin, sitting on the sofa, was completely stunned.
She never expected that her nephew, whom she hadn't seen for many years, would dare to speak to her like that.
"...Ji Qiyue, do you know what you're saying? Who are you talking to?!"
They actually told her to get lost?!
Is this nephew trying to cause trouble?!
"Of course I know!"
Ji Qiyue had already drunk too much today and couldn't control his temper. His brows were cold, his lips were tightly pressed together, and his words were even more sharp.
"The Ji family is where Grandpa is, and relatives are the people who should live together in the family."
"Where was my aunt when Grandpa was almost dying? Wasn't she living a carefree life abroad?"
"Did you really care about Grandpa's safety? Who was the one who truly saved Grandpa from the brink of death? It was Niannian! The person everyone in this family should be most grateful to is Niannian."
"Let alone Niannian being my aunt's daughter, my own sister, even if she were a complete stranger who saved Grandpa's life, our Ji family would be grateful and support her for life. How come it's taken for granted just because she's family?"
"And Ji Yuwei, you don't need to keep bringing up how Niannian warned you and hurt you in the storeroom that day. If you hadn't disobeyed her and forced Grandpa to eat deer antler, Grandpa wouldn't have had a relapse and almost died again."
"If you weren't my sister, if you weren't a girl, do you think Nian Nian would have needed to take action? I could break your wrist with one hand and teach you a lesson you'll never forget!"
Ji Qiyue is a champion boxer.
As he spoke, veins bulged on his handsome face and forehead.
The sense of oppression was overwhelming.
Ji Yuwei was so frightened that she didn't dare to utter a sound, her expression timid.
Fifth Brother had always been the most short-tempered of the seven brothers, and he had always been indifferent to her. She had tried so hard to please him, but now he disliked her even more…
Ji Xin gasped for breath, her eyes wide with disbelief, and pointed at him: "You, you heartless wretch, how could you speak to your own aunt like that..."
"What's the point of having a conscience? It's just a constraint on good people and an encouragement to evil people."
Ji Qiyue snorted coldly and came to Jiang Nian's side. His tone softened, and he took her hand and led her upstairs.
"Niannian, don't take those words to heart. No one in this family will ever kick you out. If anyone says those words again, don't blame me for turning on them and taking action."
It has a hidden meaning.
A blatant threat.
Ji Xin's hand trembled, her chest heaving with anger at Ji Qiyue. She looked at Ji Linyuan, who had rushed over upon hearing the commotion, and said, "Brother, your son is going to rebel! Aren't you going to do anything about him?!"
Ji Linyuan said helplessly, "Qi Yue has had this temper since he was a child, you know that."
If a child is obedient and well-behaved, would he send him to learn boxing from a young age?
It's better to fight properly than to cause trouble everywhere and have to follow people around apologizing to their parents every day.
After escorting Jiang Nian to her room, Ji Qiyue looked down at her, his eyes filled with heartache: "Are you still upset?"
"I'm not sad." Jiang Nian shook her head.
Indeed, her sadness just now was feigned; she knew her older brother wouldn't treat her that way.
"That's good," Ji Qiyue rubbed his chin against his sister's head, his breath smelling of alcohol not at all unpleasant. "Be good... no matter what happens, your fifth brother will always be on your side to protect you."

Back in the room.
Jiang Nian opened her phone and found that Si Boye had sent her several photos.
Pipi was already asleep in the new doghouse she had bought for it that evening.
On the big, soft gray cushion, the little head was tilted to one side, and the sleeping posture was sprawled out, exposing the belly. It was extremely cute.
I've heard that dogs sleep in this position because they feel safe.
Jiang Nian's eyes unconsciously revealed tenderness.
The next second, she received a message from Song Sichen, whom she had just met that day.
Miss Jiang Nian, my father's leg is in a cast, and I've taken him home now.
It's quite a coincidence that tomorrow is my father's birthday. He's been wanting to express his gratitude to you, so he specifically asked me to invite you to his birthday banquet tomorrow night.
Do you have time tomorrow night? If it's convenient, I hope you can join us. I'll have someone pick you up.
The old man would be very happy to see you tomorrow.
Grandpa Song's birthday banquet?
He was indeed a very kind grandfather.
Jiang Nian felt that it was quite a coincidence to meet him today, and she would like to go and wish him well tomorrow.
It's a good opportunity to send him some pills.
So, slender fingers tapped the screen, and the reply was concise and to the point.
【good.】
But you don't need to pick me up. Just give me an address, and I'll go there myself.
After accepting the invitation, Jiang Nian prepared to wash up.
Just as she was about to get up, the housekeeper told her to go see her maternal grandfather.
She frowned, thinking something had happened to her grandfather again. She rushed over and was met with his smiling face.
Grandpa needs to rest, so my eldest brother specifically instructed me not to worry him too much and not to let any messy things reach his ears.
Therefore, Mr. Ji was completely unaware of what had happened in the living room downstairs.
She was even happy that her family was growing, her granddaughter had been found, and her rebellious youngest daughter had returned.
"What's wrong, Grandpa? Is something bothering you?" Jiang Nian sat by Grandpa Ji's bedside, her eyes filled with concern.
"No, Grandpa isn't that weak now, he's quite healthy."
Grandpa Ji waved his hand casually, then warmly grasped his granddaughter's hand.
"That's what I'm saying. Tomorrow night, my grandfather has an old friend celebrating his birthday, and he's invited me."
"Grandpa is thinking of taking you along. You can introduce yourself to the well-known people in Jiangcheng and reveal your identity. What do you think?"
