To prevent the vast land he had painstakingly built from being easily destroyed, the valiant Lin Hengfeng, accustomed to both yielding and standing firm, knelt before Ji Xiaoxiao, begging for her forgiveness.
Lin Hengfeng, a grown man, was adept at using the tricks of crying, making a scene, and threatening suicide, instantly defeating the ultimate boss in palace intrigue and domestic power struggles.
Ji Xiaoxiao leaned against the doorframe, her head slightly lowered. The somber shadows obscured Lin Hengfeng's searching gaze, making it impossible to discern her expression. "Brother Feng, I want to forgive you, but my heart keeps telling me no, I absolutely cannot forgive you. Every time I think of you kissing Ai Zixin, my heart feels like it's being cut with a dull knife, bleeding and shattered. My heart aches so much. If I forgive you, what kind of person would I be?"
These were the original owner's words, which Ji Xiaoxiao read aloud.
As a newcomer, Ji Xiaoxiao couldn't show any suspicious words or actions towards those familiar with the original owner. Ji Xiaoxiao only had a general understanding of the original owner's memories; the details still needed time to be digested and deepened.
"Xiaoxiao." Lin Hengfeng called out with heartache, his dark and deep eyes clearly reflecting Ji Xiaoxiao's figure, making it clear at a glance that she was his everything. "Xiaoxiao, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't know I would hurt you. Please forgive me, I will make it up to you, believe me. Tomorrow, no, I will send Ai Zixin away, far away, so that you will never see her again."
Ha, I didn't know it would hurt you?
Damn it, can't you at least prepare a draft before lying? You just spout nonsense without considering other people's feelings. Putting aside their childhood friendship of over ten years, Ai Zixin was practically the original owner's best friend. Don't you know the saying "a rabbit doesn't eat the grass near its burrow"? Having a secret relationship with Ai Zixin in the office, and then going on and on about it in front of his girlfriend—is that what you call "I didn't know it would hurt you"?
Her mind was racing with complaints, but Ji Xiaoxiao hesitated, unsure of what to believe. Her eyes darted away, avoiding Lin Hengfeng's deep, regretful gaze. She turned her back and said, "Let me think about it."
"Okay, okay, I'll think about it. Brother Feng will come over again tomorrow." Lin Hengfeng said "Brother Feng" so easily that it could make someone vomit their dinner from the night before.
After finally seeing Lin Hengfeng off, Ji Xiaoxiao's swollen forehead became even more severe, making it even more difficult for her to fall asleep.
Lying in bed, Ji Xiaoxiao couldn't help but feel helpless. She never imagined that she would travel to the late years of the Ji clan, a year before their demise.
Now, Wang Tiansheng, under the guise of being the CEO of Ji's Enterprises, is secretly acquiring shares of the company on a large scale. On the surface, he is suppressing Lin Hengfeng, giving Ji Xiaoxiao's parents a satisfactory answer, but in reality, he is gradually eroding Ji's Enterprises.
He says one thing in public and another in private; what a hypocrite!
From the original owner's memories, Ji Xiaoxiao learned that the original owner was gentle and passionate towards Wang Tiansheng, her feelings deep and sincere, and she had never wronged him. As a child, she treated Wang Tiansheng as an older brother, showing him unwavering respect and love. Even after becoming his girlfriend, she couldn't express her love for him. Seeing Wang Tiansheng's frustration and lack of success, she even cried and begged her parents to hand over the management of the Ji Group to him.
In other words, even if Wang Tiansheng wanted the stars and the moon, the original owner would foolishly turn around and bring them back to Wang Tiansheng without saying a word.
Ji Xiaoxiao couldn't understand why Wang Tiansheng was so ungrateful and even stabbed her in the back. She simply couldn't understand it and could only attribute it to Wang Tiansheng being an ungrateful wretch who loved to turn on his master.
People are fickle. The fact that Wang Tiansheng is an ingrate can be somewhat concealed. What Ji Xiaoxiao finds most incomprehensible is how Wang Tiansheng managed to manipulate the Ji family business so easily.
Regarding the issue of management control of the Ji Corporation, Ji's parents couldn't win against Ji Xiaoxiao. They considered that Wang Tiansheng was someone they had watched grow up, and they knew him fairly well—talented, handsome, and a deserving recipient of the "Five Good Youth" award. Now that Wang Tiansheng was Ji Xiaoxiao's boyfriend, the doting parents readily agreed, gritting their teeth and handing over management control of the Ji Corporation to Wang Tiansheng. After all, they held 60% of the shares in the Ji Corporation, ensuring it would remain under the Ji family name and could not possibly change hands.
Ji's parents control 60% of the shares in Ji's Enterprise. Even if Wang Tiansheng acquires all the shares held by the other shareholders and buys up the scattered shares, he will only have 40% at most.
Sixty and forty, it's obvious which is bigger and which is smaller.
Ji Xiaoxiao couldn't figure out exactly how Wang Tiansheng had stolen the Ji family business, and she was truly unable to sleep or eat.
Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will win every battle. The wisdom of our ancestors is very true.
Tossing and turning, unable to find a solution, Ji Xiaoxiao, exhausted both physically and mentally, finally drifted off to sleep.
I slept soundly through the night without any dreams, waking up naturally.
The warm morning sun gently bathed me, making me feel incredibly comfortable.
Subconsciously rubbing against the blanket beneath her, smooth and silky like fine silk, Ji Xiaoxiao hummed happily. The air was filled with the fragrance of grass and trees, and her delicate nose twitched as her tightly closed eyes slowly opened.
As I awoke from my dream, everything was shrouded in mist. The scenery was obscured by a hazy smog, making it impossible to see or understand clearly.
"Ha." Ji Xiaoxiao yawned, lazily scratched her back, and slowly walked towards the bathroom.
After washing up, her dark eyes sparkled with a captivating charm, and her pure and beautiful face was so enchanting, like a freshly peeled egg, making one want to poke it hard.
Feeling refreshed, Ji Xiaoxiao hummed a lighthearted tune as she took off her pajamas. But as soon as she stepped out of the bathroom, she froze.
The burly man with his feet scratching his head couldn't understand the world before him at all.
Holy crap, the first thing you see is pink, the whole room is pink, everything is pink. The curtains are pink, the sheets are pink, the walls are pink, the carpet is pink, even the plush toys on the bed are pink.
Ji Xiaoxiao, who was always perceived as having no distinction between men and women, sighed, but her mind was perfectly clear.
No wonder the original owner was deceived by two scumbags in a row, both physically and mentally. Just look at this room full of pink and this inhuman taste. If the original owner could marry the rags-to-riches Lin Hengfeng and Wang Tiansheng and win the title of rich and handsome man to reach the pinnacle of life, Ji Xiaoxiao would definitely kneel down and sing "Conquer" to this world.
Girls with unique tastes are too much to handle!
Knowing that there were more important things waiting for her to do later, Ji Xiaoxiao suppressed the urge to burn down the Red Powder Kingdom, strode out of the room.
