One of them would pounce and bite someone at any time if he was not held back by the waiter, while the other one stood there calmly without even any extra expression.
Compared with the two, Ji Ke was more excited.
"Ji Ling, are you feeling very proud now? Your family members support you, and outsiders praise you. You are not a child of the Ji family, but you are valued by the Ji family. Now that you are an official, do you think you are great? You are dreaming. The one who praises you will never be me."
"Mad dog, you haven't said a word since Ji Ling came in. Look at yourself. You are a madman. Who needs your support? Who needs you to look up to them?" After a moment, Ji Jianhua calmed down.
He also knew that it was useless to get angry with someone like Ji Ling, but after Ji Ke came over just now, just a few words from her ignited Ji Jianhua's anger again.
He found that he really hated Ji Ke, to the point that he would feel irritated whenever he looked at him.
"Ji Ke, whether you live or die is your business. Why did you bother Ji Ling and threaten her? I think you don't want to die at all. You just want to scare us, right?" Ji Jianhua took a deep breath and pointed at the waiter. "There are outsiders here now. Speak clearly in front of them. Once you speak clearly, we will leave. As for whether you live or die, we will definitely not stop you."
"Why should I listen to you? You forced me to die. You made my parents dislike me and made me suffer at home. I didn't go back and found a boyfriend outside. You also made trouble behind my back. It was you who pushed me to death." Ji Ke covered her face and cried while sitting on the bed.
Seeing that the quarrel had finally stopped, the waitress said, "You two are a family. If you have anything to say, please talk it out. It's scary to keep you here. We can't keep you here anymore. You should leave. I'll refund your room fee."
Since human life was involved, the waiter did not ask the boss and made the decision directly.
Seeing this, Wang Sanmei walked over and picked up Ji Ke's bag, and then pulled Ji Ke's arm, "Let's go, get in the car first if you need anything, the hotel is closed now, and you can't live on the street in the winter."
Ji Ke didn't move, so Wang Sanmei said, "We'll find another place for you to live in. Who would dare to take you in in your current situation?"
Perhaps she was threatened by these words, so when Wang Sanmei pulled her again, she stood up and followed her.
After they both left, Ji Ling called out to Ji Jianhua, "Let's go."
"That's all she can do." Ji Jianhua's face was still blue with anger.
Ji Ling laughed, "Brother, you know this and you're still so angry. Isn't that stupid?"
Ji Jianhua was in a really bad mood and went out silently.
Ji Ke couldn't keep up the fuss. He was desperate but realized that he couldn't get it over with if he continued to make a fuss. So he came down the steps given by Wang Sanmei in disappointment and got into the car.
Afraid that she would run away again, Wang Sanmei did not get out of the car, but sat in the back holding Ji Ke's hand.
Ji Jianhua stood outside the car and talked to Ji Ling.
"Is everything alright at work?"
"It's okay. The guard just thought it was a child throwing a tantrum and didn't think too much about it. Be careful on your way back. If she runs away, you and sister-in-law don't pay any attention to her. You have done what you should do." Ji Ling was not worried about Ji Ke, but only worried about her eldest brother.
"I know." Ji Jianhua also urged her to go back to work before getting in the car and leaving.
Ji Ling watched the car leave before returning to her unit.
They found a guesthouse to stay in. Wang Sanmei was worried, so she shared a room with Ji Ke while Ji Jianhua lived alone.
Before going to bed at night, Wang Sanmei secretly said to Ji Jianhua, "You go outside and ask the waiter to lock the door. I'm afraid that if I fall asleep, Ji Ke might run away in the middle of the night."
Ji Jianhua took a deep breath and said, "Okay."
His wife secretly told him about it, and Ji Jianhua cleverly told the waiter about the situation. The door was locked from the outside and no noise was made.
After Wang Sanmei finished explaining everything to her husband, she relaxed. The window had iron bars and no one could get out. The door was locked, so Ji Ke couldn't run away. She fell into a deep sleep as soon as she lay down.
Ji Ke actually wanted to slip away in the middle of the night. He got up in the middle of the night and tried to push the door several times, but found that it would not open. He then went back to bed angrily to sleep.
After lying down, I couldn't fall asleep. I hated myself for being weak and for not having the confidence to stand up to Ji Ling and the others.
As for Ji Ling, Zhu Weiming came over just after she got home in the evening, "Sister-in-law, you didn't go to work this morning?"
"I went." Ji Ling was surprised. "What happened?"
"Someone in the compound said they saw you go to the hotel, and today someone asked me about it." Zhu Weiming believed in his sister-in-law's character, and the reason he asked was simply to give his sister-in-law a reminder.
"Ah, I went with my eldest brother and others to look for Ji Ke. Ji Ke came to my unit today and said some harsh words, and then ran away from home again." Ji Ling came out after washing her hands, bent down, and picked up her daughter who was hugging her legs.
Mrs. Zhu was watching TV in the living room. When she heard Ji Ling's words, she turned her head and asked, "Did Ji Ke go to your workplace?"
Ji Ling walked over and said, "Yes, she said a lot of useless things to the guard. The guard was worried about something happening, so he asked someone to follow her and sent me a letter."
Old Mrs. Zhu frowned, "She used to be very well-behaved, why has she suddenly changed so much?"
"She has never been well-behaved." Zhu Weiming sat down next to his grandmother. "You think everyone is nice. Many people's kindness is just pretend."
Grandma Zhu took off her reading glasses and said, "You, you are still talking about this. He Tong came to see you today and gave you your favorite corn, but you were at home and didn't come out to thank him."
"Grandma, don't you know why she sent me corn? I don't want her to think too much, so it's better to see her less often to avoid her misunderstanding."
He Tong likes Zhu Weiming, and everyone in the compound knows about it. The two of them are chasing each other, and Zhu Weiming's attitude of rejection is obvious. The He family saw this and tried to control He Tong, but they couldn't. They just felt that their daughter was a disgrace, so they just gave up in the end.
Old Mrs. Zhu sighed, "One day I will persuade that child not to be so stubborn."
She has five grandchildren. The eldest grandson was able to get married, and his wife was a granddaughter-in-law she met halfway through. The other four have no plans to get married at all.
It was time for dinner. The family sat down to eat and mentioned Zhu Weidong, who couldn't come back during the New Year.
Ji Ling had no objection, but Old Lady Zhu had a strong opinion. "Since Weidong started working, he rarely spends the New Year at home. We should report this to his company. There are so many designers in the bureau, not just Weidong. We need to let people work and live. We can't just leave the family alone."
