Chi Zhan moved faster than him and pulled Jiang Lai behind him.
Looking at Ji Jiamu, the gentleness and smile he had towards Jiang Lai completely disappeared.
His eyes were sharp and cold. "Do you have to be desperate to realize that some people are not yours to covet?"
The rights that Chi Zhan possessed were something that Ji Jiamu could never obtain no matter how hard he struggled in his entire life.
Mentioning this gap over and over again was like an invisible slap in his face.
Even so, he still wants to help Jiang Lai.
"You don't understand her at all."
"I don't understand why she doesn't want someone as rich and powerful as you, but would rather be with me, her brother who has nothing and even schemed against her."
Chi Zhan really didn't understand, and his brows furrowed when he heard that.
But I don't want to lose face in front of my rival.
"She will always be my legal wife."
Ji Jiamu: "She will be unhappy."
Chi Zhan: "If you were not her, she would be happy."
"You are not her, how do you know she will be happy."
Chi Zhan didn't want to dwell on such elementary school issues.
"Don't think that just because your grandma is nearing the end of her life, there's nothing to threaten her. Ji Jiamu, if I were in your situation, I'd just keep my tail between my legs."
"Shut up!" Jiang Lai came out from behind Chi Zhan, "What nonsense are you talking about in front of the Buddha!"
The most fundamental reason why she came today was to ask for help on behalf of Grandma Ji.
I hope the old man can live the rest of his life without pain.
How can you say "life is coming to an end" in front of the Buddha?
"Chi Zhan, I'm going to worship Buddha today, so I'll put everything aside."
"Can."
Seeing that he agreed, Jiang Lai breathed a sigh of relief.
Before I could finish my breath, I heard him say, "After praying to the Buddha, we'll go back to Jingcheng to get the marriage certificate."
Jiang Lai was annoyed and thought that since he couldn't get it anyway, he just gave up.
"OK."
"elder sister……"
Jiang Lai gave him a reassuring look.
Ji Jiamu remembered what Ruan Nanzhi said last night and said nothing more.
The group began to worship Buddha sincerely.
Asked for peace.
When they left, they all had safety buckles on their wrists.
Jiang Lai has two.
Chi Zhan certainly didn't want to wear the safety buckle that Ji Jiamu asked for on her wrist.
He thought about it and went to get the certificate later. He had a dull expression and didn't say anything else.
When they were passing by the bathroom while going down the mountain, Ruan Nanzhi pulled Jiang Lai in.
"Just now, when I wanted to speak, you winked at me. Do you think your feelings will bother me?"
"I really don't want you and Zhou Fang to get caught between us."
Jiang Lai held Ruan Nanzhi's hand and said, "You have helped me a lot. I will remember it."
"I thought, after all, this is a conflict between Chi Zhan and me, so we should handle it ourselves."
Ruan Nanzhi nodded. "I can watch you handle it yourself, but you have to remember, don't act stubborn. I'm always behind you."
"Yeah, okay."
They were whispering in the room.
Outside, Zhou Fang and Chi Zhan also whispered a few words.
"Are you sure you can get the certificate when you return to Jingcheng?"
"Not sure, let's talk about it when we get back to Jingcheng."
Zhou Fang seemed to be thinking about something and said, "I don't recommend using force all the time. It will only make people feel cold."
Chi Zhan simply said, "No."
When they were in the Buddhist temple, Zhou Fang saw Jiang Lai giving Ruan Nanzhi a look.
Since they don't want them to interfere too much, I won't say much.
After going down the mountain, Chi Zhan pulled Jiang Lai into his car and headed straight for the airport.
Without Jiang Lai, Ruan Nanzhi and his group no longer went to Ji Jiamu's house to disturb him.
She asked Jiang Yunshu to take the child into the car first, and she spoke to Ji Jiamu alone.
"Lai Lai told me everything about what happened in Haicheng that night. I believe you didn't mean to hurt her. But you are Jiamu. Love can't be forced."
"Since you said from the beginning that you would let Lai Lai use you, you should know that the use will eventually end."
"From the beginning, you two weren't going to have a normal relationship."
"So Jiamu, I treat you as my younger brother and only then will I tell you some honest words."
"Don't waste your time on Lai Lai. Accompany your grandma through her final moments, then work hard on your career. In the future, you will find your happiness."
Ji Jiamu tried hard to force a smile, but his face was bitter.
"Sister Nanzhi, I've taken note of what you said. Hurry up and go over there. My brother-in-law's eyes are about to tear me into pieces."
Ruan Nanzhi said the last sentence, "You schemed against her, and she used you. Now you are even. No one owes anyone anything."
"I left a red envelope under the pillow in the side room. Thank you, Grandma Ji, for cooking for us. Even though you came all night, it still disturbed us."
"Jiamu, live a good life."
Ji Jiamu felt infinite bitterness and pain in his heart, but he still smiled with his neat teeth showing.
"Sister Nanzhi, the same goes for you, and Sister Lailai, I hope you all will be happy, safe and healthy."
"good."
Ji Jiamu watched several luxury cars leave.
He opened his palm and looked at the small safety button.
Jiang Lai asked for it for her.
Suddenly, he closed his palms and clenched them.
But he smiled with relief.
He made a bet with God.
If Jiang Lai and Chi Zhan are not happy when he becomes successful, he will take Jiang Lai away even if it costs him his life.
…
Jingcheng.
Jiang Lai shivered as soon as he got off the plane.
Looking at the gray sky, it's about to snow.
She was about to wrap herself up in her coat when a blanket was thrown over her from behind.
Then he was hugged.
The car is not far away and you can get on it by going down the stairs.
The air conditioner in the car is already turned on.
Jiang Lai was just a little cold for a moment.
It was Chi Zhan who asked her to wait, but she refused and came out first to get cold.
To be honest, her mood was very complicated.
Before the plane took off, she received a message from Ruan Nanzhi.
Ruan Nanzhi persuaded Ji Jiamu to let her go.
Ji Jiamu also sent her a final farewell message.
She didn't reply.
I feel like there's no point in replying anything.
This time, Chi Yi drove Chi Zhan.
Nothing else.
It means losing at rock-paper-scissors.
The heater was on in the car, but the atmosphere in the back seat wasn't very warm.
After leaving the airport, we drove onto the road and headed straight for the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Just as they were about to leave, they were stopped by a group of armored vehicles.
Jiang Lai saw a strange middle-aged man walking to the side of the car.
He knocked on Chi Zhan's car window.
Chi Zhan descended halfway, and a hint of cold wind blew in, wrapping around his slightly gloomy brows.
The middle-aged man bowed slightly and said respectfully, "Master, the master asked me to invite you home for dinner."
Chi Zhan never thought that his father would send his most capable and secretive confidant to capture him.
"I'm not hungry."
"If you don't move out of the way, I'll hit you."
The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Master, the master also said that this young lady should go back with you to have dinner."
Chi Zhan's voice turned cold, "Impossible, get out of the way."
The middle-aged man still kept smiling, "Master, my order is that if you refuse, then I will kill this lady on the spot."
After he finished speaking, he shook the pistol in his hand.
