Ji Zhixia nodded vigorously: "Yes, that's right, that's exactly it!"
Madam Ji laughed heartily: "Xiaxia, are you still dreaming?"
Madam Ji didn't believe her daughter's words. Leaving aside the fact that Ji Zhinan was wearing the store's prized possessions, and that Ji Zhinan knew an internationally renowned designer, Madam Ji simply didn't believe that Ji Zhinan had attended the banquet!
Seeing that her mother didn't believe her, Ji Zhixia became extremely anxious and quickly took out her phone: "I'll show you the photos, they were all sent to me by Nana!"
Ji Zhixia showed Mrs. Ji the chat screenshots, which were sent by Cao Nana.
The wealthy young masters and ladies all share a common WeChat group. The screenshots that Cao Nana posted were from that group, where several young masters from various corporations secretly photographed Ji Zhinan and wanted to use the internet and their connections to dox him.
Upon seeing the photo in the screenshot, Madam Ji was incredulous and stammered, "This...this really is that wretched girl?"
Ji Zhixia nodded firmly.
"..." Madam Ji still felt it was too fantastical.
Of course she knew about the banquet. Because the Mu family had run into problems recently, and because the Ji family had lost several contracts to ZN, the Ji family was not invited. Her husband was angry about it for several days.
How did Ji Zhinan get in?
Ji Zhixia gripped her phone tightly, gritting her teeth as she said, "Mom, don't you think Ji Zhinan is like he's been possessed by a ghost? He's changed so much!"
Madam Ji also noticed that Ji Zhinan used to be weak and incompetent, and she would tremble with fear if she said anything harsh to him, but now he dared to talk back.
After thinking about many things, Madam Ji gritted her teeth, grabbed Ji Zhixia's hand, and said, "We have to tell your father about this. I want to see how that little slut explains herself!"
Ji Zhixia gripped Madam Ji's hand tightly, saying nervously, "Mom, I'm scared. What if she tries to take my money..."
Ji Zhinan has gradually broken free from their control. From her audacity in kidnapping and setting fire to herself and Zeyu, to her repeated scheming to make her grandfather believe her...
If Ji Zhinan really has designs on the company, Ji Zhixia is afraid she won't be able to protect herself.
Madam Ji shared the same worries as Ji Zhixia, but in front of her daughter, she had to put on a strong front.
She quickly reassured him, "That's impossible. The company is in your father's hands. You're his only precious child, his sole heir..."
"But Grandpa still owns 20% of the company's shares! He's so biased towards Ji Zhinan, there's no guarantee he won't give my things to Ji Zhinan. And... and he even got my dad to arrange a job for Ji Zhinan in the company!"
Once Ji Zhinan joins the company, that will be the first step in swallowing up her company...
Madam Ji was also flustered by what Ji Zhixia said. She forced herself not to think too much and comforted her daughter.
"Your dad is also wary of Ji Zhinan. Even if she goes to work at the company, he won't arrange a good job for her. Xiaxia, don't overthink it. Once you're better, we'll get engaged to the Mu family immediately! Then your dad will arrange for you to be a manager. And then we'll find a chance to trick the old man out of his shares!"
With Madam Ji reassuring her, Ji Zhixia's panicked heart was finally calmed down.
…………
Ji Zhinan received a phone call from Ji Pengfei early in the morning, telling her to go home.
After tidying up briefly, Ji Zhinan took a taxi back to the Ji family home. When he arrived, Madam Ji and Ji Zhixia were still asleep.
