Ji Jinsu nodded: "After taking your medicine, my eyes... feel like they're going to tear up."
He has never shed a tear since birth.
Even when he cried the most as a child, he never shed a single tear.
But now, he didn't want to cry, yet he felt something was about to spill from his eyes.
Everyone in the Ji family immediately looked at him and, sure enough, saw large tears rolling down his face.
"Xiao Su," Uncle Ji immediately handed his son a few tissues, then asked Qi Qi, "Qi Qi, what about your brother Su's eyes..."
Qiqi smiled and said, "Tears are a way of detoxifying. Over the years, your eyes have been affected by evil energy, accumulating a lot of toxins. You need to expel all these toxins for your eyes to get better."
"That's great." Although Uncle Ji didn't quite understand what evil energy was, he was relieved to hear that his son's eyes were detoxifying.
The whole family was happy for Ji Jinsu, since he had been blind since childhood, which made his life very inconvenient and made him unhappy.
Just then, a sharp voice broke the atmosphere in the living room.
"Oh, didn't you say that Fifth Master Ji would never show up where I am? Why are you here again?"
Upon hearing this voice, Ji Chengfeng's expression stiffened, and his demeanor visibly turned cold.
Qiqi turned around curiously, her eyes widening in amazement.
Standing at the door was a man in his thirties, very well-maintained, whose features perfectly inherited all the best qualities of both Old Master Ji and Old Madam Ji; he was the most refined of the six brothers.
He was holding a pink-wrapped gift box in his hands, looking at Ji Chengfeng with a half-smile, a hint of sarcasm in his narrow, almond-shaped eyes.
Is this her uncle, her father's younger brother, Ji Chengye?
Everyone in the Ji family knows that Ji Chengfeng and Ji Chengye are at odds, and any meeting between them is bound to be a massive explosion, like Mars colliding with Earth.
To avoid being caught in the crossfire, they simply remained silent, letting the fighting rage on.
Anyway... I won't really die!
The Ji twins, Ji Chengye's twin sons, were different. They rolled their big eyes around, looking like they were enjoying the show, wishing that their fifth uncle and their father would fight, so that their father would be too angry to deal with them when he got home.
Upon hearing this, Ji Chengfeng coldly shoved the gifts in his hand into Old Madam Ji's hands.
She turned around and met Ji Chengye's gaze.
In an instant, an invisible aura clashed violently between them, creating a tense atmosphere with sparks flying and sand and stones flying everywhere, causing the atmosphere to plummet to freezing point.
Qiqi carefully clung to her grandmother's leg and whispered, "Grandma, what's wrong with Daddy and Uncle? Are they going to fight?"
If a fight breaks out, should she go and help?
Her father was so good to her, so if he couldn't win, she would definitely help him.
But she's really strong. I wonder if my uncle can withstand one of her punches.
"Your father and your uncle..." Before Madam Ji could finish speaking, Ji Chengfeng turned around and was about to leave with a cold face.
"Fifth Brother!" Old Madam Ji called out, anxiously trying to reach out and stop him.
Madam Ji grabbed Ji Chengfeng's arm and said, "Husband, don't do this. Mom and Dad are here. You're making things difficult for them."
But Ji Chengfeng, who always obeyed Madam Ji's orders, surprisingly ignored her words this time.
Instead, he shook off her hand and walked away without stopping or looking back.
At the doorway, a dark glint flashed in Ji Chengye's peach blossom eyes as he coldly watched Ji Chengfeng walk towards him.
Just as his lips were about to provoke him further, a small, pink figure came running over and grabbed Ji Chengfeng's leg.
"Daddy, don't go!" Qiqi looked up at her with her big eyes blinking. "I haven't given Brother Jinsu acupuncture yet."
Ji Chengfeng lowered his head: "You can stay here with your mother. I'll come back to pick you up after Jin Su has had acupuncture."
After saying that, he turned to leave.
When they tried to pull it out, it wouldn't budge.
Ji Chengfeng was stunned for a moment, then used even more force, but still couldn't pull it out.
He looked at his little girl with some surprise. No, Qiqi really didn't eat a single bowl of rice for nothing?
That's incredibly strong!
Ji Chengfeng frowned: "Qi Bao, let go!"
"No!" Qiqi pouted, her baby voice tinged with tears. "If Daddy leaves now, Grandpa and Grandma will be sad."
Her big, round eyes welled up with tears, as if she would cry on the spot if Ji Chengfeng insisted on leaving!
Ji Chengfeng suddenly couldn't bring himself to leave; he didn't want to make his little girl cry.
Ji Chengye arrived late and knew nothing about Qiqi's abilities. He thought Ji Chengfeng was putting on an act, using a feigned retreat as a tactic, and snorted coldly.
"Haven't seen you for a few days, and Fifth Master Ji has already stooped so low as to use children as an excuse?" Ji Chengye mocked.
Ji Chengfeng's face turned cold, and he was about to get angry.
But then Qiqi burst into tears: "Waaaaah... Uncle is so scary! Uncle bullies Daddy! Uncle is a bad guy! Qiqi doesn't like Uncle! Waaaaah!"
The little girl was wailing with her eyes closed, but Ji Chengfeng, looking down at her, could see clearly that she hadn't shed a single tear; it was all fake crying.
But Ji Chengfeng still picked up Qiqi with heartache: "Qibao, be good, don't cry. If Qibao doesn't like it, Daddy will take you away now."
"Waaaaah, Qiqi won't go! Qiqi wants to stay and keep Grandpa and Grandma company!" Qiqi reached out and hugged Ji Chengfeng's neck. "Daddy, please don't go either, okay? Master always says that if there's a misunderstanding, you should speak it out and not keep it bottled up inside. If you keep doing that, it will only wear down your relationship. Even if you explain things away after the relationship is worn down, you can never go back to how things were!"
The Cold War was the most damaging thing to relationships.
Back when she was in her master's sect, there were many junior disciples, most of whom were older than her.
She was born into a wealthy family at a young age, and there were plenty of people who resented her.
At first, everyone banded together to isolate her.
She was resentful but didn't know what to do, and had clashed with most people.
Later, the master said that since they were not convinced by her, they should have a martial arts contest. She would defend the arena, and anyone who was not convinced could challenge her at will. Whoever defeated her could become the senior brother or sister of the sect.
However, there is one condition: if she wins in the end, everyone must live in peace from now on. Any opinions or misunderstandings should be raised immediately; sect feuds should not be left unresolved overnight.
As a result, she won.
Her junior colleagues were also convinced of her abilities. Although there were a few frictions later, everyone sat down and talked things out as soon as possible.
If we can't explain it clearly, let's fight it out. Whoever wins gets to decide.
Or should we really let Dad and Uncle fight?
