Chapter 237 It’s Him



“That’s him!”

Now that she knew who had the problem, Chen Ruxue had an idea.

After meeting everyone, Bai Man asked Chen Ruxue to sit down.

And began to carefully inquire about Chen Ruxue's experiences over the years.

Ji Zhonghai still looked indifferent, but Chen Ruxue didn't care.

The whole family chatted and it was noon soon.

"Xiaoxue, today we've met our family and had a reunion dinner together. We are now a real family.

If you encounter any problems in the future, come to your Grandpa Ji or your three uncles."

Bai Man pulled Chen Ruxue to sit at the dinner table and did not forget to give Chen Ruxue some instructions.

Chen Ruxue responded repeatedly, "I know everything, Grandma. By the way, you haven't seen the gifts I brought you yet, right? I'll show them to you right away."

Bai Man was about to say that there was no need to bother, but then her eyes widened and she asked, "What, what is this gift?"

"Braised pig's head, my mother-in-law's specialty, is delicious and very popular. I even had to work hard to get this, just to show my filial piety.

Actually, I originally wanted to give my grandma some precious medicinal herbs, but giving medicine doesn’t seem to have a good meaning, so it would be better to give her some food.

I prepared four pig heads in total, just enough for our family to eat one today, and the other three were taken home by my three uncles.

You three uncles don't need to thank me, this is just a small thing."

Chen Ruxue spoke seriously, but the Ji family's father and son had different expressions.

Ji Zhonghai was angry, Ji Li was trying to hold back his laughter, Ji Sheng was confused, and Ji Heng was stunned.

To be honest, none of them expected that Chen Ruxue would give such a practical gift.

Seeing his grandfather's angry face, Ji Mingyuan was afraid that Chen Ruxue would be embarrassed, so he hurriedly smiled and said, "Well, Grandpa and Grandma, what Sister Xiaoxue said is right. The braised pork made by her mother-in-law is really delicious. Many people are rushing to buy it."

"Xiaoyuan, have you ever eaten it?"

Ji Li looked at his nephew curiously. To be honest, smelling the fragrant big pig's head, he really wanted to try it.

Seeing his eldest son's expression, Ji Zhonghai angrily scolded him, "Foodie!"

Bai Man had calmed down from shock by now, "Alright, since Xiaoxue is so kind, you can't waste it. Come sit down and eat!"

I felt very depressed during the meal, even though the pork was as delicious as Chen Ruxue said.

After finally finishing the meal, before everyone left the table, Chen Ruxue spoke again, "Grandma, do you, Grandpa Ji, and the three uncles and aunts all dislike me?"

This question startled everyone in the Ji family. Bai Man was busy trying to appease them, saying, "How could that be? It's nothing. Why are you asking that?"

Chen Ruxue glanced innocently at the Ji family members at the dinner table. "Then why is it that I've given the gift and waited for so long, but no one gave me a gift?"

Everyone in the Ji family...

Does Chen Ruxue really not understand or is she pretending not to understand? She actually dares to ask them for gifts so blatantly.

Bai Man was stunned at first, then seemed to think of something. He quickly took out a red handkerchief from his pocket, opened it, and took out a jade bracelet with a very watery head. He put it on Chen Ruxue's arm and said, "This bracelet is the only piece of jewelry I brought from home that year. Now I give it to you as a gift."

Since Bai Man was like this, Ji Zhonghai naturally prepared a big red envelope for Chen Ruxue.

Ji Li's wife happily handed Chen Ruxue a gold bracelet.

Ji Heng's wife reluctantly took off the bracelet on her wrist and gave it to Chen Ruxue.

As for Ji Sheng, there was no movement at all.

When Chen Ruxue looked at him, he suddenly smiled and said, "I'm sorry, Xiaoxue. Uncle San left in a hurry and didn't prepare any gifts for you.

How about this, I'll prepare the gift for you another day."

Staring at Ji Sheng's calculating eyes, Chen Ruxue calmly replied, "Okay! Then I'll wait for your gift, Third Uncle."

In fact, everything that happened today was done on purpose by Chen Ruxue.

Although she agreed to recognize her relatives, she did not want to make the Ji family proud.

As for what Ji Sheng was planning, she was indeed a little curious.

Logically, she and Ji Sheng should have no connection at all, so where did his ill intentions come from?

However, she is not in a hurry, as there will be plenty of opportunities in the future.

Originally, Chen Ruxue wanted to take this opportunity to go to the homes of the three brothers of the Ji family to investigate. Now, Xiao De helped her confirm the target. Next, she only needs to keep an eye on Ji Sheng.

After annoying the Ji family and accepting the gifts, Chen Ruxue returned home contentedly.

After returning home and resting for a while, Chen Ruxue was busy telling Lin Han about some of the things she had discovered.

"You mean there's something wrong with Ji Sheng? How is that possible? He's the most capable general in Mr. Ji's faction."

Lin Han confirmed with Chen Ruxue in disbelief.

"Uncle Lin, I really didn't lie to you. Among the Ji family, I only find Ji Sheng strange."

Lin Han naturally knew that Chen Ruxue would never talk nonsense, he just didn't dare to believe it.

You have to know that Ji Zhonghai's current identity is one that holds a lot of absolute secrets. If it is true as Chen Ruxue said, that Ji Sheng has ulterior motives, then the situation will be bad.

"No, I have to report this to Mr. Han and the others so that we can take early action.

Xiaoxue, you continue to wait for news from Ji Sheng."

As soon as Lin Han finished speaking, he rode his bicycle away quickly.

For the next few days, Chen Ruxue acted as if nothing had happened, picking up and dropping off her children from school every day.

Two days later, Chen Ruxue had just sent her child to school and returned home when she saw a familiar figure at the door. It was Ji Sheng.

"Uncle San, are you here to bring me a gift?"

Ji Sheng paused slightly, a smile quickly appearing on his face, "Yes, but it's not convenient to take the gift. Otherwise, you can come with me to get it now."

"Okay, but I have to go change my clothes first and tell my mother-in-law."

As soon as Chen Ruxue returned home, she pulled Ye's mother over and told her to quietly pick up Tuantuan Qiuqiu from school and hide him in a secret place.

She couldn't put her two children in danger.

After changing her clothes, Chen Ruxue turned around, walked out the door, and got straight into Ji Sheng's car.

Ji Sheng quietly observed Chen Ruxue while driving. "Xiaoxue, I heard that you seemed to have returned to An City. What were you doing there?"

"Ah? Yes, I did go back to An City.

But I went to pay my respects because I had just learned about my father's life experience and wanted to go and see it.

"Uncle San, I don't know why you're asking me this?" Chen Ruxue looked at Ji Sheng suspiciously.
