The story returns to the day after Lin Hengfeng begged the original owner for forgiveness. The original owner, confused and ashamed before Ji's parents, dared not speak out. After searching through the phone book, she could only contact Wang Tiansheng, who had recently become her boyfriend.
Wang Tiansheng was an incredibly kind person; he successfully persuaded the original owner to forgive Lin Hengfeng. The original owner, who still harbored childhood feelings for Lin Hengfeng, readily agreed after Wang Tiansheng's repeated persuasion.
Having resolved Lin Hengfeng's problem, the original owner was overjoyed. With the timing, location, and circumstances all in place, Wang Tiansheng proposed to Ji Xiaoxiao.
Faced with Wang Tiansheng's affectionate expression and the unreasonable teasing of passersby, the original owner blushed and agreed to Wang Tiansheng's proposal.
Wang Tiansheng acted quickly. Under the pretext that Ji's parents did not want the original owner to marry too early, he tricked the original owner into secretly obtaining the household registration book and marrying Wang Tiansheng without her parents' knowledge.
So be it, she got married. The original owner was already twenty-four at the time, which in ancient times meant she was already a mother of several children; it wasn't a big deal. However, the original owner controlled thirty percent of the shares in the Ji Corporation. Since she married Wang Tiansheng, the law stipulated that half of what she owned belonged to Wang Tiansheng.
Wang Tiansheng was quite a character. He never explicitly asked for the original owner's shares. Instead, he gave away his best-performing company to the original owner for free. Then, in the dead of night, he would wallow in self-pity, complaining that he was a good-for-nothing. He said that if he had some shares in the Wang family, he could have made great strides and would never have let his wife suffer with him.
Three men can make a tiger; repeated words can make a lie seem true. The original owner, sensing Wang Tiansheng's helplessness and despair, gritted his teeth and completely forgot the instructions of his parents, turning around and giving Wang Tiansheng 30% of the shares of the Ji family enterprise free of charge.
What a wonderful girl, she'll ruin her family for a million years, no explanation needed.
No wonder Ji Xiaoxiao didn't notice when she first received the original owner's memories. It seems the original owner felt it was too embarrassing and sealed this painful memory away in the abyss.
If Wang Tiansheng hadn't proposed, triggering the conditions for unlocking the original owner's sealed memories, Ji Xiaoxiao wouldn't have known what kind of girl the original owner really was.
Wang Tiansheng gave away his best-performing company to the original owner of this body. Wang Tiansheng was truly a good man. Wang Tiansheng lamented day and night that he had no outlet for his abilities, while the original owner gave away shares of her own company, worth tens of thousands of times more than Wang Tiansheng's worthless company, to her good husband for nothing.
Husbands and wives are like birds in the same forest, sharing joys and sorrows—that's true. However, while one shouldn't harbor malicious intentions, one must be wary of others. The original owner of this body also needed to be cautious. Giving away one's trump cards for no reason was self-destructive; there was no stopping it.
Driving with one hand, Ji Xiaoxiao raised her middle finger high with the other.
Actually, what Ji Xiaoxiao was thinking more about was, "How come I haven't met such an exceptional person?"
The life of a rich woman is a lifelong wound for Ji Xiaoxiao.
With so many things on her mind, time flew by, and Ji Xiaoxiao arrived home.
Back home, Mr. and Mrs. Ji were all smiles, their aura as warm as the sun, indicating that the trip to the Lin family had been a success.
"Dad, Mom, I'm back." Ji Xiaoxiao didn't forget basic politeness. "How did your talk with the Lin family go?"
Sitting down next to Ji's parents, Ji's mother smoothed Ji Xiaoxiao's hair. "With your father involved, what can't be accomplished? Your Uncle Lin said he will properly guide Lin Hengfeng, and it's time to put Lin Hengyi's matter on the agenda."
Lin Hengyi is Lin Hengfeng's younger brother. Ji Xiaoxiao was a little confused. How did Lin Hengfeng's affairs get involved with Lin Hengyi again?
Ji's parents, being good parents, explained, "Lin Hengfeng's status as heir has been revoked. The development of the family cannot be separated from the leadership of the family head, so Lin Hengyi had no choice but to step forward."
"How could this be?" Ji Xiaoxiao covered her mouth, her performance of shock was so vivid.
Madam Ji's kind face darkened, and her tone was filled with blatant disgust. "How much do you think Lin Hengfeng is worth in the Lin family? Even in its heyday, the Lin family was reluctant to antagonize our Ji family. Now that the Lin family is in decline, what would they dare to do to our Ji family for the sake of Lin Hengfeng?"
Rich and powerful, that's impressive.
For Ji Xiaoxiao, being a rich woman is a must.
After explaining what the Lin family had gained from their trip, Ji's parents turned to Ji Xiaoxiao and asked, "Xiaoxiao, did anything happen when you were looking for Lin Hengfeng?"
Ji Xiaoxiao shrugged, then dropped a bombshell: "Dad, Mom, I broke up with Wang Tiansheng."
"What's wrong now?" Ji's mother was very concerned about Ji Xiaoxiao's feelings.
"It's nothing serious, just that Wang Tiansheng cheated on his wife, and the other woman is Lin Hengfeng's mistress." Ji Xiaoxiao's nonchalant attitude stirred up her parents' love, and they hugged the strong-willed Ji Xiaoxiao without saying a word.
As the sun sets, the evening glow turns an intense red, like blood flowing across the sky and the earth.
Ji Xiaoxiao patted her mother, who was hugging her, and said calmly, "Mom, our family company cannot be handed over to a dirty person like Wang Tiansheng to run."
Ji's mother did not answer, but kept giving Ji's father sharp looks, her meaning was all too clear.
The father, who cherished his daughter and loved his wife dearly, reluctantly accepted the women's unreasonable accusations. The head of the family stepped forward and said, "Wang Tiansheng is not a good person. He has no right to touch our things."
Only after the head of the family spoke did Madam Ji stop her piercing stares and focus on comforting her unfortunate daughter.
Having come from an orphanage, Ji Xiaoxiao was unaccustomed to physical contact with people, especially those with good intentions. Half-heartedly resisting, Ji Xiaoxiao blushed and returned to her room amidst the joyful laughter of her parents, feeling alone and miserable.
Frustrated, Ji Xiaoxiao scratched her head and walked barefoot back and forth in the pink kingdom, holding something in her hand. After a long while, she found a number and dialed it.
"Beep, beep... Hello, Xiaoxiao, is that you?" A surprised voice came from the other end of the phone, "Xiaoxiao, is that you?"
Ji Xiaoxiao's emotions had been building up for a while. She sniffed, her big, round eyes brimming with tears, looking utterly pitiful. A delicate flower evokes pity and love, and Ji Xiaoxiao was undoubtedly the epitome of this.
"Ugh..." Before she could speak, tears streamed down her face. The suppressed sobs, the turmoil of her emotions, the heartbreak of her unrequited love—it was truly a heartbreaking sight that would move anyone to tears.
After crying for a while, Ji Xiaoxiao gradually stopped, comforted by her friend on the other end of the phone, and explained the reason for her crying so hard, word by word.
Ji Xiaoxiao is an innocent and kind angelic little sister, but some people don't buy into it and spend all day and night cursing her as a shameless, heartless, and pretentious woman. People are divided into men and women, and things are right and wrong. Some people don't buy into Ji Xiaoxiao's ways, while others make a living from it and worship her like a goddess.
Amidst her friends' furious curses wishing Lin Hengfeng, Wang Tiansheng, and Ai Zixin a terrible death, Ji Xiaoxiao ended the call. Then, without any hesitation, she dialed the next number, her every step and word resembling a script, her crying and fussing like a rehearsal. As long as it was someone the original owner knew, whether a longtime friend or a bitter enemy, Ji Xiaoxiao didn't care about losing face. She told everyone that she had been betrayed by her two childhood sweethearts, one after the other, and both for the same woman.
