The butler chimed in, "Of course you wouldn't harm Ninth Master. Miss Qingyun is so wonderful, Ninth Master shouldn't look down on her."
"I think that Ninth Master was controlled by his wife since childhood, so he subconsciously rebelled."
When Ji Hanchen's mother was mentioned, the smile on Ji Huai's face gradually disappeared.
He was a womanizer throughout his life, marrying five times. His last wife was named Ren Anjing, who was thirty years younger than him.
Anjing is a very controlling person. She has been very harsh on Lao Jiu since he was a child. In order to make Lao Jiu the heir, she deprived him of his childhood and his freedom from birth.
Old Nine hates it most when others control his life.

After learning that Liang Wanrou had killed her grandfather because of her engagement with Ji Lun, Xu Qingyun was unable to calm down and decided to visit the flower market.
Ji Hanchen accompanied her; both of them were exceptionally good-looking and had outstanding temperaments, which attracted a lot of attention.
"Look at those two, they're so good-looking! They look like an AI-generated domineering CEO and a top beauty."
"Ahhh, they look so good together, are they celebrities?"
"Celebrity? By the way, that guy is so handsome, I really want his WeChat."
The girl was bold and acted on her impulse; blushing, she ran towards Ji Hanchen.
"Sir, could I add you on WeChat?"
Ji Hanchen's expression was aloof. He gently put his large hand around Xu Qingyun's soft waist and said indifferently, "I'm sorry, my wife will misunderstand."
The girl was surprised and disappointed. "You're already married?"
Ji Hanchen chuckled, "With a wife this beautiful, if I don't marry her soon, someone else will be eyeing her."
After saying that, he put his arm around Xu Qingyun and walked towards the succulent section, saying softly, "Wouldn't it be nice to buy a few more succulents?"
Xu Qingyun nodded, and after leaving the group of girls, she turned to look at Ji Hanchen, "I hope there won't be a next time."
Ji Hanchen chuckled, "Sorry, but this trick really works."
Xu Qingyun did not respond.
Her heartbeat is still a little erratic.
She was genuinely charmed when Ji Hanchen referred to her as "my wife."
Xu Qingyun pretended nothing was wrong, her clear eyes sweeping over a pot of red succulents.
“Ji Longyue, meaning resilience and perfection, suits Yunyun very well.” Ji Hanchen’s magnetic voice slowly rose.
Xu Qingyun was somewhat surprised, a hint of joy flashing in her clear eyes, "You like succulents too?"
These succulents all have names, but none of them have a flower language.
Ji Hanchen pulled out a spreadsheet document containing the names, pictures, and flower meanings of hundreds of succulents, with some parts already selected.
Xu Qingyun discovered that all the items she had picked out were things her family owned!
At that moment, Xu Qingyun's heart skipped a beat again, and she subconsciously asked, "Ji Hanchen, why...why did you do this?"
Ji Hanchen said, half-jokingly and half-seriously, "I wanted to please her. Yunyun, I actually lied to you. I'm nice to you not because of your grandfather's instructions, but because I like you."
