Chapter 73 Husband, are you crazy?
The older uncles of the Ji family were furious when they heard Ji Tanyuan's outrageous remarks.
Now, hearing Ji Qing's words again, "What do you mean? Weren't they twins back then?"
Ji Ting then asked, "If it's not Sheng Wan's, you're just denying it?"
Ji Qing looked at his elder brother, hesitant to speak. He still remembered how poor his family was when he was a child, and how his parents went out to work. It was his elder brother who took care of him.
When he went to university, his older brother sponsored his tuition. He always remembered this kindness and his parents' dying words: he could not disregard family ties.
But now it's not just a family matter anymore. My older brother has gotten involved with the Shen family of Shanghai. The Ji family was driven to the brink of despair by the Shen family before. Shen Xichen kept asking him to hand over Huanghuang. He was under a lot of pressure before he agreed to the Zhong family's request and found a way out.
No matter how much capital he has, he still has to rely on officials. If the higher-ups are determined not to let him off the hook, no businessman can withstand an investigation.
The Zhong family only wanted a piece of the semiconductor industry pie, but Shen Xichen wanted to bring down the Ji family as well...
As he said this, he glanced at his daughter.
Then take a deep breath
"I feel that my tolerance of your embezzlement of funds over the years is already a form of repayment. Spending 200 million on the clan is also a fair deal. However, the issue of the group's succession cannot be resolved simply by holding a meeting here."
The relationships involved, including equity division, asset allocation, financial law, and political stance, are vast and complex.
Ji Ting spat, "Don't spout any high-sounding official jargon. The child is kneeling in front of you now. I went through so much trouble to find him for you. Zhihe was also very excited to learn about his background. I thought we were finally reunited, but it turns out I'm the only one who's happy."
"Fourth brother, you've been blinded by greed!"
After Ji Ting finished speaking, he pointed at Ji Tanyuan and said, "My leg was broken because of your daughter. Just because she is now the daughter-in-law of the Zhong family, does everyone have to give way to her and let her act so recklessly?"
Ji Tanyuan snapped out of her reverie after hearing her father's words and looked at Ji Zhihe kneeling on the ground, who remained silent, like a puppet.
puppet……
Shen Xichen's words, "[Yu Jiang is not the real Yu Jiang]," echoed in her ears.
So there is also a possibility.
—[Ji Zhihe is not the real Ji Zhihe].
"Uncle, I don't believe your paternity test."
Ji Ting: "Then you do it yourself, I won't stop you."
Ji Tanyuan smiled gently, "Okay."
She looked at the man kneeling on the ground, met his gaze, and thought, "You'd better pray you're not his biological child; at least then you'll survive."
Ji Zhihe felt uncomfortable being stared at by Ji Tanyuan, so he lowered his head and avoided eye contact.
Looking at this commotion, Zhong Yan thought to himself that behind closed doors, everyone has their own mess to clean up.
The Ji family, having become rich overnight thanks to Ji Qing, has truly forgotten their roots. They don't know how to keep a low profile and are even thinking of bringing a little puppet to fight for control of the group.
Who taught Ji Ting this trick?
He kept looking at Ji Tanyuan, who was arguably the calmest and most gentle person in the entire room; she was the only one who remained composed.
After the event, Ji Tanyuan and Zhong Yan left together.
She even had the mood to joke: "How was the show today?"
Zhong Yan hummed in agreement, “Not bad. Your ancestral hall is quite grand, but the people inside don’t seem to fit in.”
Ji Tanyuan laughed, "Same to you."
Even a powerful and wealthy family like the Zhong family, behind closed doors, probably engages in all sorts of bizarre and trivial family matters.
Anything related to power and money is unlikely to be beautiful.
It embellished the exterior, but also tainted the interior.
Will you be able to return to Yanjing?
Ji Tanyuan: "Yes, I promised to spend the first year in Yanjing, and I won't go back on my word."
Zhong Yan gently rubbed Ji Tanyuan's earlobe and whispered in her ear, "You want him to die?"
Ji Tanyuan's eyelids twitched. "What do you mean?"
"Don't play dumb. You're not an innocent rabbit. But if he dies, will you jump into another trap?"
"He's like a time bomb; whether you touch him or not, he'll explode."
Ji Tanyuan had been racking her brains all day, and now she was so fed up that she blurted out, "He's a piece of shit, disgusting whether you eat him or not!"
Zhong Yan: "..."
Chu He: "..."
This is unheard of! This is the first time Zhong Yan has ever heard Ji Tanyuan say such a thing. Ji Tanyuan would never even utter a curse word before.
Ji Tanyuan regretted saying it; it was too vulgar and made her mouth dirty.
She pushed him away, somewhat angrily, and said, "Don't talk to me anymore."
Zhong Yan was nudged and, seeing Ji Tanyuan's flushed cheeks, couldn't help but laugh. "You're right."
"If he were your own brother, it wouldn't be right for you to say that."
“He is not,” Ji Tanyuan retorted.
Her mother told her this herself, saying that she was an only child, and she believed her mother more.
Zhong Yan nodded, "Then I'll wait for you for two days, and we'll go back together the day before New Year's Day."
"Do you need any help?"
Ji Tanyuan shook her head, "No need, it's not a difficult problem to solve."
The problem is her father.
What if the DNA test results are true?
Ji Tanyuan could not imagine that her father would have an affair.
However, the reality is that part of the reason for the breakdown in her parents' relationship was Ji Zhihe, and another part was due to these relatives of the Ji family.
Even so, his father stubbornly refused to get a divorce.
The couple's marriage had long been a sham, but the father was always the first to appear when the mother fell ill.
Ji Tanyuan sighed deeply, "You're saying there's no such thing as a good marriage, right?"
Zhong Yan disagreed: "Yes, we are."
Ji Tanyuan, who had been leaning against the window looking out, turned to look at him upon hearing this and exclaimed in surprise, "Honey, are you crazy?"
Did he really get so into the role that he acted it out?
Zhong Yan was particularly serious and earnest: "Don't you think that if there is harmony between men and women, it is difficult for couples to have conflicts?"
"What's the meaning?"
"It means that if things are harmonious and satisfying in bed, it's really not a big deal."
Ji Tanyuan: "Who told you I'm satisfied?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the car jolted, startling Chu He. Cold sweat instantly dripped into his eyes. He widened his eyes, not daring to raise his hand to rub them, afraid that the young master would notice him driving in front.
Damn it, I should have driven a car with a partition today.
Zhong Yan had no time to care about the driver. His smile vanished, he gritted his teeth, and his voice was eerily gentle, "Oh? Is that so?"
Ji Tanyuan was just refuting for the sake of refuting. Actually, she wasn't dissatisfied at all. Sometimes she could feel so good that she would faint. But she was unhappy now and didn't want Zhong Yan to be happy either.
Seeing that things were about to go wrong, Ji Tanyuan slammed on the brakes and was just about to try to salvage the situation when the phone rang.
She lowered her head to answer the call, and in less than half a minute, her expression changed drastically. She said to Chu He, "Go to Shanghai Hospital, quickly!"
She hung up the phone. "My mom hit Ji Zhihe and Dad's car, and all three of them are in the hospital."
