Patriarch Ji originally wanted to follow Patriarch Yun's lead and approach Yun Shen, but after seeing Patriarch Yun being confronted by Yun Shen like that, he became a little apprehensive. He thought Yun Shen must be in a bad mood, so he decided to approach Yun Shen next time they met.
But unexpectedly, as soon as they turned around, they were stopped by Yun Shen.
"Brother Ji!"
Patriarch Ji turned around and was immediately flattered, "Brother Yun!"
Yun Shen walked up to talk to the head of the Ji family with a smile, and Duan Qingxi also ran to talk to Ji Yichen. Madam Ji did not come, so Madam Yun did not come forward either, and just stood aside and talked with Yun Jingting and Yun Jingnian.
Seeing that Duan Qingxi and Ji Yichen had a good relationship, he became interested, "This young master of the Ji family is quite good-looking."
Yun Jingnian had been pressured into marriage for a long time, so he naturally understood what Madam Yun meant. He twitched his lips and said, "They are just friends. Mother, please don't say anything careless, lest it cause misunderstandings and embarrass them."
Although Madam Yun had this idea, she was exposed and scolded by her own son. She was unhappy and glared at him and said, "I didn't say anything, what did you say! Besides, you are already this old, it's time to find a girl..."
Yun Jingnian: ...
Duan Qingxi could naturally sense that Patriarch Ji was particularly enthusiastic towards him, especially the way he looked at him, as if he were a hot commodity. He couldn't help but ask Ji Yichen, "What happened to your father?"
Ji Yichen looked embarrassed, not daring to hide it from her, and said directly: "My father thought that the two of us...he felt there was a chance, so..."
So what was that? It was clear without further explanation, and Duan Qingxi suddenly became embarrassed.
The two of them didn't say anything else, and seeing that it was getting late, Yun Shen took them back home.
The head of the Ji family stood beside Ji Yichen. Before he could say anything, Ji Yichen said, "Dad, there's really nothing going on between Eleven and me. Please don't mess around!"
Patriarch Ji didn't believe it and said, "Then you two were talking so intimately just now!"
Ji Yichen thought about it. They were talking in low voices just now, which was not close. But if he told the head of the Ji family like this, he would definitely not believe it. So he said, "I asked her just now if she liked anyone. She said that she already had someone she liked and she would not marry anyone else in this life. I have no chance."
The Ji family head, who had originally had great thoughts, was stunned. "You...didn't lie to me?"
Ji Yichen was lying to him, of course, but he said seriously, "Does my son look like he would lie? I told you she wouldn't like him. Dad, please don't mess around. Otherwise, why doesn't she want the Ninth Prince, who is so powerful and of such a noble status?"
After being brainwashed by Ji Yichen, the head of the Ji family also felt that it made sense. He immediately sighed and accepted his fate.
Duan Qingxi didn't know about these things. After returning home, she took a shower and went to bed.
Xiaodai was sleeping at the head of her bed. Now that its cultivation was low and its spiritual power was weak, it could only barely serve as a spiritual pet. It was too difficult for it to help Duan Qingxi.
At this moment, it suddenly realized something and suddenly opened its eyes.
Before he could react, Duan Qingxi stabbed the man with the bamboo sword in his hand. The man dodged suddenly, but was still wounded in the abdomen. Finally, he waved away Duan Qingxi's bamboo sword and escaped through the window.
Duan Qingxi subconsciously chased after him, but after running out of the window, he could no longer see anyone.
She frowned deeply and had to put away the bamboo sword.
At this moment, Mrs. Yun also hurried out, and even Mrs. Yun followed out. It seemed that the two of them happened to rest together tonight.
"Le'er!"
"mother……"
When Madam Yun saw Duan Qingxi standing outside the door in a thin dress, her face changed with fear and she quickly stepped forward and put her coat on her.
At this moment, Yun Shen and the others all ran over.
"Le'er! What happened?!"
"father……"
Duan Qingxi saw that they all came out, and knew that this matter could not be concealed, so he had to simply explain the matter, "Just now when I was sleeping, I saw someone sneak into my room. When I woke up, I stabbed him with a sword, and now he has escaped."
Hearing this, everyone started to panic.
"Sixth sister, are you okay?"
Duan Qingxi looked at Yun Jingnian and shook his head, "I'm fine. He didn't attack me, but he has my wounds on his body, so he shouldn't be able to get far..."
Upon hearing this, Yun Shen quickly sent people to chase after him.
Although it was okay, it was still quite scary. Yun Shen asked people to strengthen the protection of Duan Qingxi's room.
