Chapter 99 Innocence
Li Ming's heart tightened. He heard clearly what happened in the office just now in the secretary's office.
Mr. Ji must have been slapped twice by his wife. He glanced at him secretly... and sure enough, there were slap marks on Mr. Ji's face.
Li Ming coughed lightly and said, "Boss Ji, this is a document from the Ministry of Law. Please sign it."
Ji Yanxing retracted his gaze and hummed indifferently. Just as he took the document, Qiu Shuning's voice suddenly came from the door, "Brother, I'm here to ask you for help again!"
Jiang Yichen and Qiu Shuning came together. In the past two years, Qiu Shuning has become President Qiu. She is one of the best girls of her generation in City A. She recently set her sights on a piece of land and plans to build a resort. She wants Ji Yanxing to help her make some connections.
As soon as she came in, she saw the slap marks on Ji Yanxing's face. Her eyelids twitched and she blurted out: "Fuck, brother, who hit you?!"
Jiang Yichen was a thick-skinned man who hadn't paid attention at first. But when he heard this, he immediately stared at Ji Yanxing's face. A clear slap was reflected on his face. Jiang Yichen's eyes twitched, "No, brother, Yu Nian is so angry, are you cheating on me?"
Ji Yanxing raised his eyelids and looked at him coldly, "Do you think I am you?"
"Me? What's wrong with me?" Jiang Yichen said dissatisfiedly, "I don't have a girlfriend, so the word cheating doesn't apply to me."
Qiu Shuning asked anxiously: "What happened? Was it really your sister-in-law who beat you? Brother Ji, what did you do wrong to deserve your sister-in-law to beat you so cruelly!"
Before Ji Yanxing went abroad, he asked Qiu Shuning to look after Yu Nian for him. She had more interactions with Yu Nian, and she could clearly feel Yu Nian's love for Brother Ji, which, although restrained, was very deep and strong.
How did it get to the point of slapping?
Although Qiu Shuning appears to be carefree, he is actually quite thoughtful. Thinking about how Ji Yanxing banned Meng Ziyun some time ago, could it be that Meng Ziyun is making trouble again?
"Brother Ji," Qiu Shuning observed his expression and asked tentatively, "Is it related to Meng Ziyun?"
Ji Yanxing looked at her expressionlessly. Qiu Shuning thought about it and decided to risk his life to advise: "Brother, I'm serious, my sister-in-law is really a good person. What's going on between you and Meng Ziyun? You are so unclear. If I were your sister-in-law, I would have quarreled with you eight hundred years ago."
Ji Yanxing's thin lips were pursed into a straight line, and his sharp and distinct features were tense.
Li Ming silently interjected: "Mr. Ji is innocent."
He followed Ji Yanxing, and it could be said that he knew President Ji's schedule better than Yu Nian. Originally, he didn't understand why President Ji gave preferential treatment to Meng Ziyun. It was not until he went to the United States three years ago and saw Meng Qing lying on the hospital bed with tubes all over his body that he finally understood.
Meng Qing and Meng Ziyun are twins. President Ji helps Meng Ziyun just to repay a favor.
It was not until the beginning of this year that Meng Qing woke up. President Ji went to see him several times. Meng Ziyun, as Meng Qing's sister, was of course also in the ward. It was not surprising for the two to meet, but President Ji never said a few words to Meng Ziyun.
Later, President Ji got the flu and had a high fever. Meng Ziyun got the news from somewhere and came to visit President Ji in the ward. However, after a few words, President Ji sent her away. Because of Meng Qing's matter, President Ji did have more interactions with Meng Ziyun, but he never crossed the line. In Li Ming's opinion, President Ji was devoted to his wife, so he naturally disagreed with Qiu Shuning's statement.
"When I say unclear, I don't mean that there is something going on between you two. I mean that you should let sister-in-law see that there is nothing going on between you two," Qiu Shuning pointed at himself, "Look, I often ask you for help, but sister-in-law never doubts me. This is the difference."
Ji Yanxing raised his eyelids and looked at her without saying anything. Qiu Shuning understood that he wanted her to continue talking.
"Let me put it this way -" Qiu Shuning gave an example, "If my sister-in-law often goes out alone with a man who likes her, what would you think?"
"Even if you know they are fine and you believe in your sister-in-law's character, you will still be unhappy."
Ji Yanxing thought of Lawrence Lu almost immediately. He knew that she didn’t like Lawrence Lu, but he still couldn’t help but be jealous of Lawrence Lu.
Because she feels relaxed when she is with Lawrence Lu, and she trusts him very much.
"So, brother, you should not only keep a distance from Meng Ziyun and other women with ill intentions in your mind, but also do so in your actions. After all, sister-in-law is not a worm in your stomach. She will believe what she sees more--" Qiu Shuning looked at him and said tactfully, "You should have a stronger sense of boundaries with other women, otherwise, no matter how sober, rational, gentle and considerate your sister-in-law is, she will easily think too much."
Qiu Shuning said so much because she grew up with Ji Yanxing, and she also selfishly hoped that her sister-in-law could get along well with Brother Ji. Just because she had helped her sister-in-law introduce cases before, she wanted Brother Pei for help in the past three years, and he never refused.
Jiang Yichen was listening nearby and waved his hand, "Why are you talking so much nonsense? If she's unhappy, just buy her some more things she likes to comfort her."
Qiu Shuning kicked him and said, "That's how you treat your mistress. How can a wife be treated the same way as a mistress?"
Jiang Yichen touched his chin and said, "I don't have a wife, how would I know?"
"Go away, don't interrupt." Qiu Shuning kept talking for a long time in the tone of an emotional master. Although Ji Yanxing didn't say much, he listened patiently. After she finished speaking, she started to mention the land she wanted. Of course, the result was that Ji Yanxing gave in easily.
Qiu Shuning smiled and said, "Brother, I wish you and sister-in-law a happy marriage."

After everyone left, Ji Yanxing sat in his office chair, picked up his phone, and dialed a number. "Brother, why did you think of calling me?"
Ji Feihe's voice sounded as if he couldn't believe it.
Ji Yanxing raised his hand and pinched his brows, "My ring, how did you get it?"
"Of course it's Meng Ziyun——"
"Think it over before you answer." There was silence on the other end of the line for a few seconds, and Ji Feihe said nonchalantly, "Oh, your wedding ring. My people said you were sick and unconscious, so I asked the nurse to take your ring away when you were unconscious. But, brother..." He paused and clicked his tongue, "Although I was the one who instigated the discord, have you ever thought about why sister-in-law actually believed that I got the ring from Meng Ziyun?"
Ji Feihe did these things without thinking of hiding them. Ever since An Sisi was sent away by Ji Yanxing, he asked someone to investigate Ji Yanxing. He discovered that Meng Ziyun was the only woman with whom he had a special relationship besides Yu Nian, so he went to find her.
Ever since Ji Yanxing was unwilling to help her anymore, although Meng Ziyun had accumulated a lot of connections over the years, most people were only willing to give her face for Ji Yanxing's sake. She had a difficult time in the past few years.
