"Keep your voice down!" Zhou Yun quickly covered Ji Meng's mouth, glancing slyly at the people around them.
"Sister Xiaoyun, didn't Song Heng do 'that' to you?"
"Um."
"Then how can you say you slept with him?" Ji Meng asked, her face filled with a big question mark.
Zhou Yun blushed and coughed lightly twice, "Maybe I remembered it wrong."
I still vividly remember his gentle touch last night and the continuous trembling at the end, and how I got the bruises on my inner thighs...
Zhou Yun seemed to have a sudden realization; a thought flashed through her mind—could he have used…
Ji Meng stared at Zhou Yun suspiciously, "Sister Yun, he wouldn't have used..."
Before she could finish speaking, Zhou Yun interrupted her, "No! Since there's no problem, let's pretend that what happened last night never happened."
Anyway, I won't have any contact with that person in the future.
"Really?" Ji Mengdi blinked, looking confused.
Zhou Yun clearly had something to do at this moment, could it be that Song Heng used other methods to...
"Bang!" My head was flicked.
"Ji Meng, stop fantasizing. Have you found out what you were asked to investigate?"
Seeing that Ji Meng was starting to think about her and Song Heng in an unspeakable way, she raised her hand and flicked her forehead.
"Ouch, that hurts..." She rubbed her head and looked at Zhou Yun. "I checked, and the company assigned me to be the head of the marketing department, but my brother is in Beijing, so they reviewed it for him and then changed it to your name."
"They wrote your name on the application form." Ji Meng glanced at Zhou Yun furtively. "He knows a thing or two about what kind of companies these are. My brother wouldn't push you into a fire pit. Is something wrong?"
She tried to defend her brother a couple of times, feeling guilty, but ultimately it was his fault, and Ji Meng could only respect Zhou Yun's decision.
After a long silence, Zhou Yun looked at Ji Meng and said, "Zhou Jin is in the capital."
"What? Why did my brother bring her here? She's a shameless green tea bitch." Ji Meng gritted her teeth in resentment.
At the last Ji family gathering, Ji Chu brought Zhou Jin back to the Ji family home.
After repeated persuasion from Ji's mother, she decided not to pursue the matter of Zhou Jin and the Zhou family's ungrateful behavior.
Unexpectedly, this green tea bitch, in front of all the elders of the Ji family, subtly implied that Zhou Yun had used many dirty tricks to help the Zhou family gain a foothold in Kyoto.
"That woman said that you have worked so hard for the Zhou family and that the Zhou family has wronged you. She also said that you disregarded your health and went to the Xindu cooperative company to drink with the boss of the cooperative for three days in a row. In the end, you were unconscious and had to be carried back to the hotel."
"You even said you weren't resting in the middle of the night, and that there were luxury cars parked at the Zhou family's house waiting for you to go out for social engagements."
"I rolled my eyes at her right then and there. Isn't the CEO of Xindu's partner Zhao Zhilin? And isn't that the luxury car waiting for you late at night?"
"If it weren't for my mother's sake, I would have gone over there and torn her mouth apart!"
"If you ask me, Zhou Jin has no other skills, but she's quite good at spreading rumors. How unlucky I am! What's wrong with my blind brother? He treats this green tea bitch like a treasure."
"This time, my dear sister-in-law has become someone else's sister-in-law."
Ji Meng became increasingly speechless as she thought about it. She scratched her hair vigorously, making her long, flaxen curls even more disheveled.
Zhou Yun sighed helplessly, "What are you talking about? Don't talk nonsense in front of your brother."
"Also, check who handled the approval form when the assistant took it out."
Ji Meng was stunned for a moment, then realized, "You mean Zhou Jin got involved?"
"Well, your brother knows I'm here temporarily to help you with the exhibition. Since he's in the capital, there's no reason for me to attend these kinds of banquets on behalf of the company, unless someone wants me to go."
Zhou Yun bit her lower lip and pondered for a moment.
"How could she know how our partners operate? She's only just started doing business with the Zhou family and doesn't know much about the capital," Ji Meng said, somewhat puzzled.
"And what about your brother? Now that she has a firm foothold on the Zhou family's board of directors, plus those two from the Zhou family who keep talking about your brother, a marriage between the Ji and Zhou families is inevitable. Even those snobbish people in Kyoto will have to give her some face."
"These vampires are now tied to us, and we can't shake them off. They even dare to cause trouble in my company now."
Ji Meng gritted her teeth in resentment, her eyes growing even colder.
"Sister Xiaoyun, you go back to Kyoto first. I'll handle things here and give you an explanation."
...
Kyoto, Luzhai.
"What?" Shi Wan stared at Lu Jingyan in shock.
Lu Jingyan nodded solemnly, "That's right."
The little girl had been arguing with him all morning. He coaxed her from upstairs to downstairs, from the living room to the garden, and eventually even alerted Mr. and Mrs. Lu.
As a result, before he could even appease his wife, he was instead lectured by the two elders.
My ears were almost worn out before I managed to escape from their clutches.
While Shi Wan was still half asleep, he kept kissing, hugging, and explaining until he finally calmed her down.
Upon hearing Lu Jingyan's explanation, Shi Wan's still dazed mind instantly cleared. "So Song Heng didn't touch Sister Xiaoyun last night?"
Somewhat incredulously, he asked again.
"Yes." Lu Jingyan nodded.
"Is Song Heng no good?" Shi Wan muttered softly.
Lu Jingyan's pupils contracted slightly, and he tightened his grip on Shi Wan's arms. "Wanwan, is it appropriate for you to talk about other men while I'm in your arms?"
He gently nibbled on her earlobe, teasing it back and forth.
Shi Wan then realized what was happening and guiltily avoided looking at Lu Jingyan. "I was just happy for Sister Xiaoyun. It's good that Song Heng has some conscience. Even though he was drugged, he still refrained from touching Sister Xiaoyun."
"Huh? Who said Song Heng was drugged?" Lu Jingyan's deep voice caused another uproar.
