After Ji Ling finished talking to Zhu Weidong, she saw that he was concerned about it, so she stopped dwelling on it.
Thinking about it later, I felt that Xu Li was usually a smart person, so it was impossible for her to do it so obviously. But I couldn't figure out why Xu Li did this, and I felt that I was overthinking it.
On the third day after Zhu Weidong returned, the Ji family finally arrived.
Wang Sanmei also came along. Ji Ling was quite surprised. After all, the family business was there, and she thought someone would stay at home to look after it.
When talking privately at night, Wang Sanmei said that she came here for a physical check-up. Half a year had passed, and she still wasn't pregnant, so she wanted to check.
Ji Ling advised her, "I understand that you are anxious, but the more anxious you are about getting pregnant, the harder it is to get pregnant. There is nothing wrong with you and my elder brother. You are just too nervous. The child is not meant for you two."
Wang Sanmei smiled and said, "Xiaoling, if it was before, I wouldn't be anxious, but now the better my mother treats me, the more anxious I am."
Ji Ling didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "If mom knew, she would probably feel guilty."
"Don't let Mom know."
"Don't worry."
After having dinner at Zhu's house in the evening, the Ji family returned to their own residence. The business has been good in recent years, and Ji Ling also asked Ji Jianhua to buy a house in the capital. Normally, no one lives there. A few days ago, when the Ji family was coming over, Ji Ling went over to help wipe off the dust.
As for how to deal with Ji Ke's matter, the Ji family also expressed their position at the Zhu family that night, asking the Zhu family not to interfere in the matter and apologizing for not raising the child well.
Because both families were there that day and there was no time to talk, the next day, after Ji Ling got off work, she saw Zhu Weidong coming to pick her up with his daughter, saying that they were going to visit their parents together.
Some things are difficult to say in front of the Zhu family, and Ji Yong can't afford to lose face. He and his son had gone to see Ji Ke during the day, and Ji Yong looked unhappy when he returned home.
Xu Fang listened to her husband's words with a heavy heart and smiled bitterly, "It's all my fault. I spoiled her."
"The child just doesn't know how to be grateful. No matter how you teach him, it's useless." Ji Yong persuaded his wife for a few words, then smiled and waved to Niuniu, "Come here, let grandpa hug you."
Zhu Weidong smiled and patted his daughter's butt, and Niu Niu ran over and rushed into Ji Yong's arms.
Ji Yong held her for a while, then Xu Fang snatched her away. Xu Fang kissed her and said, "Our Niuniu is the best."
It's strange to say, Ji Ling and Xu Fang are not close, but Niu Niu likes to stick to Xu Fang. After arriving at Ji's house, she asked Xu Fang to hug her. Xu Fang was so happy that she didn't let go since she entered the house.
Ji Yong also wanted to talk to Ji Ling about Ji Ke, so he let his wife coax the child while they went to the study to discuss the matter.
"I asked a friend to find out about the two places that Ji Ke mentioned. We need to get them out as soon as possible. As long as those people are caught, if we are lucky, we can find the person who plotted against Ji Ke. In this way, we can be sure that Ji Ke was plotted against, and she can be released on probation." Zhu Weidong had already analyzed it before. It was impossible for Ji Ke to be released without any problems.
Even if the Zhu family had the ability, they couldn't do it.
When Ji Yong heard the news, he had already made the worst plan. "Weidong, I'm sorry to bother you. Ask your friend to help as much as possible. How far things can go depends on Ji Ke's own fate. And don't let your friend work in vain. Afterwards, ask your eldest brother to take some money and arrange it. After all, he has to ask for help from others, and we can't let him get involved again."
"No need for that. He and I have been friends since childhood, so he won't mind these things." Zhu Weidong didn't say much about this. "Then let's wait for news. If anyone contacts you in the next few days, don't have too much contact with them. I'm afraid they have other plans."
Ji Yong nodded and looked at his son beside him, "Did you hear that?"
"Dad, I understand." Ji Jianhua didn't want to care about Ji Ke, but Ji Ke was schemed by Luo Li, and the incident was caused by her.
In the evening, Ji Ling and her family of three left, and Ji Jianhua came out to see them off.
When they got outside, without Wang Sanmei around, Ji Ling told Ji Jianhua, "Luo Li will definitely look for you."
Ji Jianhua was silent.
Ji Ling's face turned cold, "You want to see her?"
"I want to ask her why she did this? I have never done anything wrong to her."
Ji Ling suppressed her anger and said, "Okay, if you want to meet him, go ahead. And remember what I tell you."
If I don't let him see it, I'm afraid he will keep it in his heart for the rest of his life.
Back in the car, Zhu Weidong held his wife's hand and said, "Let him see her. This is his own business."
"I'm just afraid that after he's seen it all, he'll be fooled by Luo Li. Luo Li is not a simple person, otherwise he wouldn't have endured it for so many years and dug such a big hole and threw Ji Ke into it."
"Brother has been doing business for so many years. If you can't even handle Luo Li, then you don't need to care about him anymore. He is an adult and you don't need to be responsible for him."
Ji Ling was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "Yeah, we are all adults."
"It's just that you usually care too much, so when you encounter something, you take it for granted that it's your job to do it, and put all the pressure on yourself. Don't put so much pressure on yourself. Ji Ke got into trouble because she had problems herself and let others take advantage of her. It has nothing to do with you. You don't have to feel guilty about it and keep thinking about making up for it. If you keep thinking like this when something happens, won't you be exhausted to death?"
Ji Ling was driving while listening to Zhu Weidong's words. She thought that this was indeed the truth. She always took everything on herself, making herself physically and mentally exhausted. Life was too tiring.
All the way home, Ji Ling persuaded herself to calm down. She hugged Zhu Weidong's arm, and Zhu Weidong held their daughter. The three of them returned home talking and laughing.
As for other things, Ji Ling didn't think about them. Everyone needs to deal with the things that happen in life on their own. She was just an ordinary person and had no ability to take care of other people's lives.
Ji Ling’s guess was not wrong. Luo Li got the news on the day the Ji family arrived in the capital.
She met Ji Jianhua by chance the next day when he was out.
The two found a teahouse and sat down.
Luo Li has changed a lot, becoming more sophisticated and capable, like a successful person.
"You've changed." Luo Li spoke first, with regret in her heart. This man was supposed to belong to her, but she took a wrong step and ended up like this.
"I am still the same as before, but you have changed a lot and are now a successful person."
Luo Li smiled, "I have always been like this. I can only say that we haven't seen each other for many years, so in each other's eyes, we feel that the other person has changed."
