Chapter 459 An Unbelievable Gift, the Beloved Darling, Conflict [2 Updates]
He stared intently at the black cube, utterly incredulous.
After a long while, Ji Yihang finally came to his senses: "No, this is too precious, we can't accept it. Xiao Li, return it."
Ji Li still didn't know what it was.
But since Ji Yihang said so, she did as he said.
Wen Fengmian glanced thoughtfully at the black cube, but remained quite calm: "Second brother, don't get excited. Yaoyao has more, we don't need one more."
Ji Yihang's hand trembled: "There's more?"
Ying Zijing rested her chin on her hand and hummed in agreement: "There's more."
Herwin gave her three pieces, which she doesn't need right now.
She knew Ji Yihang was conducting experiments, and this would be very convenient.
Originally, Ying Zijin intended to deliver the medicine.
However, the Ji family has too close ties with the ancient martial arts world, so in order to prevent something like what happened to Nie Chao from happening again, she chose this gift.
It's more suitable than medicine.
Ji Yihang felt dizzy and was completely dumbfounded.
This black cube is an energy device.
It's only available in O continent.
The material comes from a meteorite.
However, the meteorite was very small, and the technology was limited, so only fifteen energy devices were ultimately made.
The Ji family owns a piece of land that they bought from O continent for a billion US dollars, which drained the funds of several laboratories.
Although Ji Yihang is about to be promoted, he is not the one that the Ji family values most.
He only received one million yuan in experimental funding each month, which wasn't enough to buy some materials, forcing him to cut back on food and clothing.
He had never even dared to dream of such an energy device.
A billion US dollars!
His niece just casually took out so much money.
Ji Yihang remembered the title Ji Li had just mentioned—
A very wealthy woman in the entertainment industry.
She's not just a wealthy woman in the entertainment industry, she's a billionaire of the century.
"It's still too precious." Ji Yihang said with some shame, "I don't even know what to give you."
He is not as good as Wen Fengmian. More than 20 years have passed, and he has not reached the heights that Wen Fengmian achieved when he was a teenager.
Because he was implicated in the failed experiment on the island, the Ji family did not invest much in him, and much of the funding came from Madam Ji.
Ying Zijing raised her eyes and chuckled, "You've taken care of Dad for so many years, this little thing is nothing."
Speaking of this, Ji Li remembered something: "Ying Shen, you can sue Ying Zhenting for abandoning you and send him to prison."
New evidence has surfaced online.
The evidence that Ying Zijing lost her item back then was written by Ying Zhenting.
He deliberately arranged the social gathering at that time and mobilized many servants of the Ying family, as well as some people on the street, to make it easier for Ying Luwei to steal Ying Zijin away and throw her away.
Ying Zijing narrowed her eyes slightly, then lowered her eyelashes and said calmly, "I'm afraid he won't live to see that day."
Ji Li was stunned, not understanding, but agreed: "Exactly, living is a waste of air."
The family had a very pleasant atmosphere at the dinner table.
Ji Yihang poured himself a cup of tea, looked up, and asked in surprise, "Feng Mian, how did you suddenly come to your senses?"
Wen Fengmian shook his head, and this time he didn't answer, but just smiled and said, "Second brother, let's eat."
Ying Zijin remained silent.
She knew very well why Wen Fengmian had finally decided to return to the capital.
Because she encountered the DEATH toxic fog in the O Continent University City.
The Ji family's overall scientific research capabilities are no less than those of the O continent.
Moreover, many instruments and research materials are only available to the Ji family and are kept secret from outsiders.
Anyone who isn't a researcher at the Ji family's laboratory has no right to contact them.
The experiment on the island failed, but the data was preserved.
All of this experimental data is locked up in the Ji family's possession.
Wen Fengmian plans to continue this experiment to trace the source of the DEATH toxic fog.
Therefore, Wen Fengmian returned because of her.
"Fengmian, where are you staying?" Ji Yihang asked worriedly. "Is it safe? What about the Ji family area..."
"Don't worry, Second Brother." Wen Fengmian coughed twice. "It's very safe."
"That's good." Ji Yihang nodded. "Second brother doesn't have any ancient martial arts practitioners on his side, only your sister-in-law has one, but her strength can't compare to Ji Yiyuan's."
Ji Yiyuan is currently the highest-ranking member of the Ji family.
He and Ji Yihang were completely at odds.
Ji Yihang also suspected that the sudden malfunction at the island experiment back then was probably orchestrated by Ji Yiyuan.
“Your sister-in-law isn’t a bad person, she’s just been worried for a long time, afraid that you’ll cause me trouble when you go back,” Ji Yihang sighed. “But you’re my brother, I definitely can’t abandon you.”
“I’m sorry to her too. If it weren’t for her help, I might not have been able to see you again.”
Wen Fengmian sighed softly, "I know."
The internal strife within the Ji family is too intense, and coupled with the nature of ancient martial arts practitioners, people could die at any moment.
"I'm relieved to see you," Ji Yihang said. "I'll contact your sister-in-law and take you home to meet her."
After hanging up the phone, he added, "You can go back tonight. Don't worry about the lab. With your abilities, you'll definitely be able to get back."
Wen Fengmian nodded: "Thank you for your trouble, Second Brother."
**
After the four of them finished eating, they walked around outside for a few more minutes.
It was already evening when Ji Yihang drove home.
Madam Ji had prepared a table full of dishes and was waiting.
"This is your sister-in-law," Ji Yihang introduced. "Madam, this is my second brother; you've seen his photo before."
Wen Fengmian nodded: "Second Sister-in-law."
Madam Ji stood up, shook hands with Wen Fengmian, and said calmly, "I do not like you, and I even wish you were not alive, but I married him, so you are also my brother. We share the same fate."
Things have come to this point, there's nothing we can do.
If Wen Fengmian appears in public, even if Ji Yihang doesn't bring him back, other factions within the Ji family will take action.
Ying Zijing took off her baseball cap and said politely, "Second Aunt."
When Madam Ji turned her head and saw the girl, she couldn't help but be amazed.
It's so beautiful.
When Madam Ji was young, she was a beauty at the research institute, and because she was not a member of the Ji family, many people pursued her.
One reason she married Ji Yihang was indeed because Ji Yihang was extremely handsome.
Madam Ji had also seen Ying Zijin's photograph.
But you have to admit, she looks even better in person than in photos.
Ying Zijing was finally relieved.
Of all the members of the Ji family, Wen Fengmian only mentioned Ji Yihang, which means that the others are not important.
Then she doesn't need to pay attention to it.
Fortunately, Ji Yihang's family treated Wen Fengmian very well.
Madam Ji took out a very exquisite jewelry box: "Yaoyao, right? Your second aunt has prepared some nice things for you, just right for a girl your age. Take a look and pick whatever you like."
Ji Li: "???"
Who told her that she didn't have any idols or cousins?
Could the defection have happened that quickly?
Good looks are indeed a powerful weapon.
Ji Li snorted, took her hard-won phone, and then started voting for Ying Zijin on the charts.
Ji Yihang was also bewildered by Madam Ji's actions. In the end, he could only explain to Wen Fengmian, "Your sister-in-law likes pretty girls."
"..."
Wen Fengmian coughed: "Second brother, Xiao Li is your youngest daughter, do you have other children?"
"Ah, yes." Ji Yihang smiled. "I also have a son named Ji Xun, but he has been sent out for practical experience and will not be back until next month. Oh, right, here is his picture."
He pulled up the photos from his phone's album and showed them to Wen Fengmian.
The photo shows a young man in his early twenties wearing a dark blue uniform.
He inherited the best features of Ji Yihang and his wife, with deep-set, handsome, and three-dimensional features.
Wen Fengmian pondered for a moment, recalling that the Ji family also had an experimental base at sea.
It seems that Ji Xun has gone to sea.
To be able to go to that experimental base at sea, one needs not only certain scientific research capabilities, but also considerable physical skill.
Ji Yihang added, "Xiao Xun has practiced a bit, and he even said he wants to apply for a position at IBI."
On the other side.
Ying Zijing, of course, did not accept Madam Ji's jewelry, but she also prepared a gift for Madam Ji.
It's a cheongsam.
Mrs. Ji took the cheongsam to the bedroom to change.
The phone rang, and Ying Zijing answered, "Grandpa."
"Zijin, your grandfather just wanted to let you know; you don't need to worry about the rest." On the other end, Old Master Zhong paused for a moment before speaking, "Zhong Manhua, she—"
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a loud "bang".
Grandpa Zhong was taken aback, a bad feeling creeping into his heart: "Zijin, what happened on your end?"
Ying Zijing pressed the phone, her expression indifferent, and looked up.
The security door to Ji Yihang's house was kicked open.
A group of people entered, all wearing matching uniforms.
The leader was a middle-aged man with a badge on the right collar of his clothes.
There is a character "纪" on it.
The middle-aged man flicked his collar, his face stern and cold, carrying a murderous intent.
He didn't even glance at Ying Zijing, then turned to the men behind him and said indifferently, "Arrest the two traitors."
I will always remember a famous saying from my college roommate.
Tired of writing calculus code? Let's play around with some code.
