Gou Xiuqin is Madam Ji. Aunt Min and Madam Ji are old acquaintances who have known each other for many years.
“That Gou Xiuqin has never been a good person since childhood. She is selfish, self-righteous, and only followed me after Ji Pengfei became successful and said he would take me to live a good life. As you know, Second Miss, she is the madam, and I am just an old maid who takes care of her. If she orders me around, I can't survive if I don't do it…”
Ji Zhinan watched her cry uncontrollably with a forced smile.
Ji Zhinan used to be bullied a lot by Aunt Min in front of him.
Relying on her status as a former wife of Madam Ji, she often flaunted her power and influence.
Aside from bullying her, the second young lady, every maid in the house had suffered at her hands and been tripped up by her, yet none of them dared to speak out, silently swallowing their grievances. Not for any other reason than to survive; if they dared to complain, they would lose their jobs in the Ji family.
The Ji family owns a company and lives in a villa. The maids working in their house earn much more than those working outside.
Someone once complained to the old man, and the result was that they were fired. Aunt Min's backer was Madam Ji, who was also the mistress of that house.
In her past life, she was indecisive, timid, and weak-willed. Madam Ji outwardly claimed to be doing it for her own good, but secretly she and Aunt Min bullied and made things difficult for her.
At that time, she was afraid that her grandfather would worry, so she always said that everything was fine.
Looking back now, it was really stupid.
Ji Zhinan wore a mocking smile, a smile directed at his former self.
Ji Zhinan thought that if she was obedient and well-behaved, Madam Ji would like her. But the truth is that for the selfish Madam Ji, whether she is good or not is not important. Even if Ji Zhixia is a pile of shit, she will still smell good in Madam Ji's heart.
"Gou Xiuqin has never liked you all these years. She's nice to you in front of the old man, but she speaks coldly to you behind your back, as you know. She used to tell me that she wanted to spoil you, to make you timid, weak, insecure, and lacking in confidence, so that Ji Zhixia would be much better than you. Even if the old man wanted to leave you his inheritance, he would be disappointed in you for being so useless..." Aunt Min continued to reveal Madam Ji's dirty secrets.
Ji Zhinan had long seen through Madam Ji's character, so she didn't care about any of this.
She stood in front of Aunt Min, then suddenly squatted down, so that she was at eye level with Aunt Min.
Startled, Aunt Min immediately turned her head away, not daring to look at her. Ji Zhinan's gaze was too sharp, and beneath that sharpness lay endless indifference and ruthlessness, like a black hole of death, which terrified Aunt Min.
“Look at me.” Ji Zhinan’s voice was devoid of any emotion.
"..." Aunt Min didn't move, keeping her eyes tightly closed.
Aunt Min felt a sharp pain in her jaw and opened her eyes.
Ji Zhinan grabbed her chin and forced her head to turn so that they met each other's gaze.
Ji Zhinan was wearing disposable plastic gloves and all black, an outfit that made Aunt Min tremble with fear.
Ji Zhinan acted as if he hadn't seen it, his voice still cold.
"You know I'm in a bad mood right now. Tell me what I want to know, or you'll suffer."
Aunt Min was shaking like a sieve.
Her gaze sharpened, staring directly into her eyes: "Tell me, was my grandfather's accident caused by Ji Zhixia?"
Aunt Min's pupils contracted sharply, and she suddenly became agitated, struggling violently: "I don't know, I really don't know anything! Second Miss, I beg you, please let me go, I'll be grateful to you for the rest of my life, Second Miss..."
