Chapter 8 The Father of the Real and Fake Heiresses
"Assistant Zhou, they..." Ji Lin didn't know how his father was going to punish the Li family.
Assistant Zhou folded his hands in front of him and said, "President Ji is very easy to talk to. We'll teach them a lesson and then send Ma Fang to prison."
Li Tian: "No... brother."
Ji Lin knew that if Ma Fang went to prison, she would be a stain on Tian Tian's reputation.
Assistant Zhou glanced at his watch and said before he could speak, "Young Master, you should do as President Ji says."
Seeing Li Tian holding Ji Lin's hand tightly, she reminded him, "President Ji is very angry this time. I suggest that you do not challenge President Ji's bottom line, young master."
"You know how much President Ji cares about your mother."
"The person next to you is not related to you by blood."
Ji Lin's face darkened: "Are you trying to teach me how to do things?"
Assistant Zhou lowered his head: "I wouldn't dare."
Ji Lin's eyes darkened, unsure how much of what Assistant Zhou had said had been taken to heart.
“Brother…” Li Tian felt uneasy.
Ji Nanzhi stood behind the pillar, clutching her chest and panting. The scene she had just witnessed had frightened her. Was this what rich people were like?
Is that why Dad just told her to go back to her room and rest?
"Miss."
"Ah!" Ji Nanzhi was startled and couldn't help but scream.
The maid lowered her head even further: "I'm sorry, Miss."
"It's nothing, what's wrong?" Ji Nanzhi tried to keep her tone calm.
"The master requests your presence in the study."
Ji Nanzhi knocked on the door, and the man inside said "Come in."
Upon entering, they discovered that Ji Huaizhi had already changed his clothes.
"Come here," Ji Huaizhi said calmly.
As Ji Nanzhi approached, she heard Ji Huaizhi say, "I've already arranged for you to transfer to another school. You might have to work a little harder lately, as you'll have other classes in addition to your regular schoolwork."
"In addition, I've found you an assistant. You need to prepare this month, because next month I'll be hosting a banquet to let the outside world know your identity."
Ji Nanzhi nodded blankly: "So, besides going to school, I have other things to learn, right?"
"Yes." Ji Huaizhi put down the documents in his hand: "You saw everything just now?"
Ji Nanzhi lowered her head: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to peek."
"Why are you apologizing?" Ji Huaizhi's gentle voice held no blame: "Your life from now on may be different from before."
"But you don't need to apologize to anyone, even if you did something wrong."
"Do you understand?"
Ji Nanzhi looked up, seemingly disagreeing with his words.
Do you know why?
Ji Nanzhi shook her head.
"Because your surname is Ji." Ji Huaizhi helped her understand what would be different in the future: "So it's not up to others to teach you right from wrong, and you don't need to please anyone."
"Your status and position are there, so you are right."
Ji Nanzhi blinked, and upon hearing his words, something seemed to sprout within her.
"Wasn't what you just did illegal?" Ji Nanzhi finally asked.
Although she hated everyone in the Li family, what had just happened still had a significant impact on her.
Ji Huaizhi raised an eyebrow: "You might need to understand a principle."
Ji Nanzhi tilted her head, puzzled.
"The law does not bind us."
Upon hearing this, something changed in Ji Nanzhi's eyes.
Ji Huaizhi smiled slightly when he saw that she had taken his words to heart.
Assistant Zhou knocked on the door: "President Ji, Assistant Chen is here."
"Go and meet her; she can teach you a lot."
Ji Nanzhi went downstairs and saw the meticulous Assistant Chen. She nodded politely and said, "Hello."
"Miss Nanzhi, hello." Chen Xi's eyes were devoid of any emotion. "My name is Chen Xi, and I will be your personal assistant from now on."
“I will teach you your studies, social etiquette, investment and financial management, and other knowledge. We will probably be spending a long time together.”
Ji Huaizhi stood upstairs watching the two people talking downstairs.
"Mr. Ji, Assistant Chen, wasn't this prepared for the young master?" Assistant Zhou asked curiously, standing behind Ji Huaizhi.
Ji Huaizhi: "Do you remember why I wanted to give Assistant Chen to Ji Lin back then?"
"You said back then that the young master's methods were too immature, that he couldn't handle many things in the company, and that he still had a lot to learn."
Assistant Zhou replied.
"I take back what I said. He's not naive; he's stupid."
After saying that, Ji Huaizhi turned and left.
Zhou's assistant was left alone here to think.
After pondering for a moment, Assistant Zhou looked down at the two people downstairs. Was President Ji planning to cultivate a new successor?

After Ma Fang was taken away separately, Li Tian and her son Li Wanbing were sent back, and their condition was also very bad.
When Li Tian arrived at the Li family, she was extremely disgusted. She didn't take anything from the Ji family and was stopped by the other servants when she tried to get something.
She only had two pieces of jewelry and a watch on her.
Although Ji Lin told her to wait and said she should bear with it for a while.
But she was still very flustered.
The longer it drags on, the worse it will be for her.
Li Hao's hand has been bandaged and he is not in any danger, but this is the extent to which he can live for the rest of his life.
Ji Huaizhi crippled his hand because he wasn't innocent in his previous life either.
He listened to Li Tian's advice and went to cause trouble for Ji Nanzhi, almost causing a major disaster.
So they simply crippled his hand, letting the Li family slowly fight against Li Tian.
After Ji Lin left, Li Wanbing stole Li Tian's watch and jewelry, intending to sell them to pay for his son's hand treatment.
"You only took these three things when you left? You didn't even mention taking any money or other valuables?" Li Wanbing's expression turned ferocious with anger.
The injuries on his face, combined with his expression, made him look terrifying.
"It all happened so suddenly, how could I possibly have time? When I tried to go get it, the maid wouldn't let me go upstairs!"
Seeing her son's pained expression, Li Wanbing slapped her across the face.
This was the first time she had ever been so wronged that she was furious: "How dare you hit me?"
"Believe it or not, I'll get my dad to teach you a lesson. Who do you think you are to dare lay a hand on me?"
Li Tian's words made Li Wanbing even angrier, and he kicked her directly in the stomach again: "Your dad? Let me tell you, I'm your dad!"
“You’ve already been kicked out of the Ji family! You’re now in the same position as me.”
"You used to say how pampered you were at home! You even said that Ji Huaizhi treated you like a little princess! And now?"
Li Wanbing was furious.
He dared not do anything to Ji Huaizhi, so he could only take action against Li Tian.
"You and your mother are both wicked people! You're such wicked people!"
"You've ruined your brother!"
Li Hao watched Li Tian being beaten, his body trembling. He didn't know what he had done wrong or how things had turned out this way.
After a few kicks, Li Tian felt the world spinning around her: "Ah!"
"Stop! Stop!" Li Tian was in excruciating pain.
"Have you forgotten what my brother said? He said he would come back for me! My dad is just angry! If you dare hit me again, I'll have my brother kill you!"
After hearing this, Li Wanbing indeed couldn't continue fighting.
Li Tian, her hair soaked with sweat from the pain, glared hatefully at Li Wanbing:
"Wait until my brother comes back to pick me up, I'll make you pay!"
Upon hearing her words, Li Wanbing punched her in the face.
This punch knocked Li Tian unconscious.
"You dare threaten me?" Li Wanbing's chest heaved with anger. "Since your brother cares about you so much, did he leave you some money?"
Li Hao, his face pale, began to grope her body.
Li Wanbing finally managed to find a card on her.
He grabbed her hair and shook it: "What's the password?"
Li Tian's face swelled up instantly, and her nose was covered in blood. Without hesitation, she said, "No password, just swipe."
Li Wanbing threw her directly to the ground: "You bitch! You and your mother are both wicked people!"
"Do you still think that guy surnamed Ji will treat you like his own daughter? He hates our whole family now!"
Li Wanbing understood.
Ji Huaizhi had absolutely no affection for her.
Li Tian felt pain all over her body and kept crying when she heard his words: "No, Dad is just angry."
"They will pick me up and take me back."
Li Wanbing sneered: "Let's see if he comes to pick you up."
Looking at the card in his hand, he thought of something and said, "If you want to turn things around, you'd better hold on tight to your older brother's leg."
After saying that, she took her son to the hospital.
Li Tian lay on the ground, crying her heart out.
She didn't understand how things had turned out this way.
Just yesterday she was the beloved daughter of the Ji family, but now she's suffering this kind of humiliation in the slums.
She now hates Ji Huaizhi and Ji Nanzhi to the core.
It's all their fault, it's all their fault.
