Chapter 8 When the Playboy Turns Over a New Leaf
After saying goodbye to Wang Mengjiao, Liao Zhuxin went downstairs, her mind filled with thoughts of her senior brother Zhang Heng. She wondered how she could explain to him that she had no relationship with him and wasn't even close to him.
Wang Mengjiao's words at the time were just casual remarks.
"How much longer are you going to stand there?" Ji Huaizhi asked.
Liao Zhuxin seemed to only just realize what was happening when she got into the car, and was surprised to see so many children's items in the back seat:
"The baby is only a little over a month old, this..."
Ji Huaizhi stubbornly replied, "So what?"
"Who's here today?" Ji Huaizhi asked casually.
"I'm chatting with Mengjiao," Liao Zhuxin replied obediently.
"What about your friend Yang Xi?"
"Something came up and I couldn't come." Liao Zhuxin looked at Ji Huaizhi and realized she couldn't get enough of him; she would probably always be attracted to him.
"Keep away from her while you're pregnant with my child, lest she corrupt my child." Ji Huaizhi's words were as blunt as ever.
Liao Zhuxin was unaware that he had a problem with her friend; logically, he should have a problem with Mengjiao.
"Why? You don't like me as a friend? I thought you would hate Mengjiao even more," Liao Zhuxin asked.
Ji Huaizhi glanced at her.
Liao Zhuxin remembered that Meng Jiao had once said that those peach blossom eyes were filled with affection even when looking at dogs.
"Wang Mengjiao is a bit stupid, but she's not a bad person at heart. As for your friend Yang Xi, I don't even want to say anything more about him," Ji Huaizhi sneered.
Liao Zhuxin: "They are all my only friends."
Of course, she felt that Mengjiao was a better match.
"That's what you think. Yang Xi really wants you to be her stepping stone."
Ji Huaizhi's words made Liao Zhuxin's heart skip a beat.
Is there something here that I don't know?
"You stay home by yourself. I have some errands to run. Call me if you need anything. If you want anything to eat, ask Wang Ma to make it for you." Ji Huaizhi said before leaving.
Liao Zhuxin watched him leave but still didn't ask where he was going or if he would be back for dinner.
Ji Huaizhi switched to a more flashy car.
Liao Zhuxin was exhausted as she drove straight out of the villa.
Just as I was about to rest, I saw a WeChat message from Yang Xi: "I heard your boyfriend picked you up today? Have you two made up recently?"
Liao Zhu thought of what Ji Huaizhi had said: Yang Xi really wants you to be her stepping stone.
Click to reply: "We've registered our marriage, and we'll be having our wedding banquet once we've set a date."
Liao Zhuxin saw that the other party's input was still displayed...
Unexpectedly, she called first.
"Hello?" Liao Zhuxin answered.
"You married him? No, how could his family agree to that? And you just agreed like that? Without even discussing it with us?"
The other party seemed very agitated: "You must be lying to me, right? After all, how could their family possibly agree to you being an orphan with no parents? And you were far too hasty."
Liao Zhuxin: "Xixi, why are you so agitated?"
"No... I'm doing this for your own good."
Liao Zhuxin: "You know how much I like him. Now that I'm married to him, you should be happy for me, right?"
Why do you seem so unhappy?
The other person seemed to be breathing heavily.
Finally, unable to bear it any longer, he hung up the phone without saying anything.
Liao Zhuxin's fingers, gripping the phone, turned slightly white.
So that's what "怀之" means.

Ji Huaizhi drove to the Ji family company and swaggered into Ji Yanzhi's office.
When Assistant Qin saw that his ancestor had arrived, he quickly asked someone to bring him drinks.
"Assistant Qin, is my brother very busy lately?" Ji Huaizhi asked casually.
"President Ji is always very busy, sometimes he doesn't even have time to eat," Assistant Qin said truthfully.
"Then you should prepare his meals in advance. Also, if he has a sensitive stomach, he should drink less coffee and prepare some light and stomach-friendly foods for him."
Assistant Qin agreed on the surface, but in his heart he was thinking that the amount of money Young Master Ji wanted this time was definitely not small.
"Why is Huaizhi here?"
Assistant Qin took his leave as soon as he saw President Ji arrive.
"It's nothing, I just feel like I'm about to become a father, and I can't keep drifting along like this." Ji Huaizhi said it with an air of authority.
"You have to earn money for my child, right?"
Ji Yanzhi chuckled: "It's good that you're so aware of this. The general manager position has recently become vacant. Why don't you come and work here?"
Ji Huaizhi shook his head: "I want to go it alone."
Ji Yanzhi looked at him in surprise: "You want to start a business?"
To be honest, he was already busy enough with his family business, so I didn't expect him to want to start his own business.
The main reason is that if he doesn't misbehave, his family's money is enough for him to squander for several lifetimes, but if he starts his own business, that's uncertain.
"Are you sure? The industry right now..."
"Brother, I know what you're going to say, but I also want to give it a try. After all, running a family business isn't my forte."
Ji Huaizhi took a sip of coffee: "If I'm going to make money, I'll definitely go into the areas I'm good at."
"Are you serious?" Ji Yanzhi crossed his arms and pondered for a moment.
"Okay, first clarify the company's positioning and goals, and determine the company's products and services. As long as these are approved, I will agree to let you go out and start your own business."
Knowing why he had come to see her, she continued, "I'll also talk to Dad about it."
Ji Huaizhi stood up: "Okay, I'll send it to you tomorrow."
Ji Yanzhi shook his head as he watched him leave, wondering what kind of wild idea he had this time.
He and his cronies had started businesses before, and luckily their families were well-off and could provide financial support.
Otherwise, they would have lost everything long ago.
Ji Huaizhi called Fang Yu: "See you at the usual place."
Jinhui Grand Ceremony Club.
"What have you been busy with these past few days?" Fang Yu invited a few of his buddies over to hang out.
Ji Huaizhi glanced at the people he brought and ignored them; these were the same people who had turned away the original owner of the body in his previous life.
As for Fang Yu...
Similar to Ji Huaizhi, but he was strictly controlled by his family. He was the only person who helped the original owner when he got into trouble in his previous life.
However, his family later put him in confinement, preventing him from hanging out outside, and sent him abroad.
The fact that the original owner of this body went too far serves as a warning to others in this circle.
You can play around, but you can't play around to the point of causing someone's death.
