Hearing Ji Yan’s name, Cheng Liu’s hand that was holding the bag stiffened, and she instinctively raised her head.

Not far away, Ji Yan was sitting in a wheelchair. His back was straight, and even if his legs were crippled, it still could not damage his handsome and noble temperament.

The girls shopping with her were chattering away. Everyone’s faces were filled with excitement and gloating.

Ever since Ji Yan took over the Ji Corporation, he doubled the corporation’s assets in just a few years and became a colossus in the business world. As the new powerhouse in the business world, Ji Yan established a firm foothold in the upper-class society. He became President Ji, one whom no one dared to offend.

If it weren’t for the fact that he crippled his legs a while ago and was so depressed that he locked himself at home and did not care about company matters, her brother Cheng Songyang would not have had the chance to take over the Ji Corporation.

Cheng Songyang and Cheng Liu were siblings, and their mother was Ji Yan’s aunt.

Now that Cheng Songyang was the acting CEO of the Ji Corporation, she now could flaunt around her friends and buy whatever she wanted.

She liked her current life and didn’t want anyone to ruin it.

A hint of viciousness flashed across Cheng Liu’s face, which was plastered with exquisite makeup. She put down the bag in her hand and pushed the sales clerk away. She took a few steps forward to greet the person who was walking over. “Cousin, long time no see.”

Her face was full of smiles as if she was very happy to see him here.

Ji Yan looked at her expressionlessly.

“Cousin, how have you been? You refused to see anyone for a long time, so I didn’t even have a chance to go to the Ji family’s villa to see you.” Cheng Liu’s face was full of pretense as she probed, “Now that I see that you look good, I’m relieved. How about coming to my house for dinner someday? My mother had been worried about your health, so worried that she couldn’t even eat.”

She said a lot, but Ji Yan acted as if he did not hear her and did not say a word.

When the other girls who were shopping with Cheng Liu saw this, they looked at each other and could not help but whisper to each other, their eyes full of mockery.

“Cousin!”

Cheng Liu felt embarrassed and stomped her feet angrily. “Did you hear what I said?”

When he was healthy, he always had a condescending look on his face. Now that he was crippled, what right did he have to be condescending?

He was just a cripple. She took the initiative to speak to him because she thought highly of him!

Ji Yan’s slender fingers tapped lightly on his wheelchair. His dark eyes stared at Cheng Liu. “Is this what the Cheng family taught you? Where are your manners? In the pacific ocean?”

“What?” Cheng Liu did not understand him.

“This is your cousin-in-law.” Ji Yan raised his chin. “If you are blind, hurry up and get it treated. If the Cheng family doesn’t want to give you money for treatment, the Ji family can still afford it.”

This was an indirect reminder for her to greet Shen Hanxing.

Cheng Liu’s expression changed again and again. She angrily raised her head to look at the woman who was holding the wheelchair handle. Her long ink-like hair naturally fell on both sides of her cheeks. Her palm-sized face was exquisite, and her figure was graceful. Shen Hanxing was casually leaning against the wheelchair. However, even such a simple gesture could make people feel that she was absolutely gorgeous.

Cheng Liu’s mind went blank for a moment.

This was the Shen Hanxing that her mother said who grew up in a poor area overseas, lived with her grandmother, couldn’t afford to go to school, and hung out with thugs every day? This was the daughter that the Shen family abandoned at birth?

She inexplicably recalled the news report she read when Shen Hanxing and Ji Yan appeared in the mall last time.

[Mrs. Ji’s looks are heaven-defying. She and President Ji are a perfect match!]

How could this woman be like this?

She should be rude, ugly, and mediocre! How could she be like this!

Cheng Liu couldn’t contain her anger.

“Either you greet her, or get lost.”

Sensing the malice in her eyes, Ji Yan’s face darkened, and his pitch-black eyes turned cold.

The Cheng family was getting too involved in his personal life and too controlling.

“Hello, cousin-in-law.”

Ji Yan accumulated his power for a long time. So now, even though he was sitting in a wheelchair, he was just as intimidating. When he spoke, Cheng Liu’s legs and stomach still trembled with fear. This was a fear that was engraved in her bones.

She resisted the coldness emitting from Ji Yan’s body and greeted Shen Hanxing in a low voice, “Cousin-in-law, I’m Cheng Liu. My mother is cousin Ji Yan’s biological aunt.”

Shen Hanxing naturally sensed the hostility coming from Cheng Liu. She had no intention of interacting with such people. She just nodded her head casually in response to her introduction.
