Feng Qi did not dare to provoke Ji Lingchen. She said, “Lingchen, you were there the entire time. You can tell who was right and who was wrong. Sister-in-law definitely did not hold back. She was too much.”
Ji Lingchen looked at her. “So what if she’s right and you’re wrong? Will you apologize if she’s right? So what if she’s wrong? Do you expect me to speak badly of my wife? Dream on!” He left the living room and went outside. He went straight to the small dark room they used to punish Ji Wen. The door was now locked.
He picked up the lock and looked at it. Then, he said to the servant who was guarding the door, “Open the door.”
Fang Xiaonuan, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, suddenly opened her eyes. She could not have misheard. This was Ji Lingchen’s voice. What was he doing here?
The servant said, “Second young master, it was master who asked that second young madam be locked up. Now, we don’t dare to open the door without master’s permission.”
!!
Ji Lingchen laughed mockingly. He took a step back and kicked open the door. “I’ll make sure you get your salary.”
Fang Xiaonuan was so frightened by his kick that she trembled. She scooted further inside so that the door would not hurt her.
Ji Lingchen entered and laid eyes on the girl who was hiding in the room “Do you really want to stay here so badly? I can get someone to fix the door.”
Fang Xiaonuan shook her head. “No.”
Ji Lingchen said, “If you don’t want to stay here, then come out.”
Fang Xiaonuan’s legs were a little numb from sitting for so long. She did not stand up for a moment. Ji Lingchen, who was standing at the door, said, “Why aren’t you coming out? Do you want me to help you pack your luggage?”
Ji Lingchen could not wait any longer. He did not give Fang Xiaonuan any opportunity to react. He entered the small dark room and bent down to carry her. He took her away and returned to the living room.
Back in the living room, Fang Xiaonuan met with Old Master Ji. Ji Lingchen put her down, and she stopped in her tracks. Old Master Ji looked at her.
“Ji Lingchen, what is this?” Old Master Ji was so angry that his eyes were red. He had just ordered Fang Xiaonuan to go to solitary confinement, and in less than ten minutes, his son had gone to rescue her.
Ji Lingchen said, “She’s my wife. Letting you lock her up was already showing you enough respect. Even if you locked her up for a few seconds, you still locked her up.” With that, he pulled Fang Xiaonuan upstairs.
When they reached the bedroom, Ji Lingchen let go of Fang Xiaonuan’s arm. He said, “Didn’t you want to move out of the Ji family’s house? Now, pack up your things and we’ll leave tonight.”
Fang Xiaonuan was a little surprised. “What? You’re doing what you promised?”
“For everyone’s sake, it’s better if we move out as soon as possible,” Ji Lingchen said slowly.
“Why didn’t you say so earlier! If you had said so earlier, there wouldn’t have been such a mess,” Fang Xiaonuan muttered. Then, she quickly packed her things. She did not have many things in the Ji family’s house to begin with, so she quickly packed them up.
Ji Lingchen’s phone suddenly rang. It was Ye Mubai. Ji Lingchen hung up without thinking. Not long after, he called again. This time, he picked up. “What’s up?”
Ye Mubai said, “Brother, have you found your wife who ran away with someone?”
Ji Lingchen glanced at Fang Xiaonuan who was sitting on the sofa. “Mubai, do you want to meet up?”
“Of course! Murong is back too. Why don’t we all meet up?” Ye Mubai did not know that a crisis was about to descend.
When Fang Xiaonuan heard that Ji Lingchen was going out, she asked softly, “Are you going out? Are you taking me away?”
“Ugh, why do I hear a woman’s voice? Lingchen, is this your wife’s voice or your new lover’s voice? It sounds so good…” Ye Mubai sounded gossipy.
Ji Lingchen did not respond to that. He hung up the phone and said to Fang Xiaonuan, “I’m going out for a while. Pack up. I’m going out to meet someone. I’ll come back to pick you up tonight.”
“Okay, I’ll wait for you.” Fang Xiaonuan had just been rescued. Moreover, Ji Lingchen had promised to move out with her. At this moment, she was naturally very obedient and she listened to Ji Lingchen’s instructions wholeheartedly. Right now, Ji Lingchen looked very pleasing to Fang Xiaonuan’s eyes.
Fang Xiaonuan watched Ji Lingchen leave the house. Then, she quickly went to charge her phone. After she turned it on, she reported to her good friend He Lili, telling her that she was safe.
Ji Lingchen arrived on the top floor of the villa, and Murong and Ye Mubai were already waiting. The others were coming from quite far away, so they were still on the way.
Ye Mubai was wearing a white shirt and he was leaning against his sofa. When he saw who it was, he immediately sat up. “Goodness, the groom is here!”
Ji Lingchen had just sat down when Murong immediately leaned over. “I heard from Mubai that CEO Ji has a new lover? Sure enough, this man is too much. He can’t control his urges for even one night.”
