Chapter 28: Not to Be Trifled With
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Old Master Ji reminded, “Lingchen, she is your sister-in-law.”
Ji Lingchen suddenly laughed, “How interesting. She is my sister-in-law. Have you forgotten that Fang Xiaonuan is my wife? Don’t tell me you want me to make my wife suffer for my sister-in-law? I, Ji Lingchen, will not allow such a thing.”
Old Master Ji did not say anything else. Instead, he saw Ji Lingchen stand up and say to Feng Qi, “The rules of the Ji family are based on appearances. Sister-in-law, you must not forget that as a member of the Ji family, you must abide by our rules, unless you no longer want to be a member of the Ji family.”
With that, Ji Lingchen strode out of the dining area. When he went upstairs to look for Fang Xiaonuan, he realized that the woman was not in the room. He stopped the servant and asked coldly, “Where is the second madam?”
The maid replied, “The second madam ran out crying just now. I don’t know where second madam is now.”
Ji Lingchen walked around the Ji residence, but he did not see Fang Xiaonuan anywhere. It seemed that she had gone to hide somewhere to cry. In the end, he stopped looking and just let her cry outside. When she was done crying, she came back.
Ji Lingchen picked up his phone and called his assistant.” Hello, help me buy a house near the Fang residence.”
“Yes, yes, sir. What are you looking for? How many rooms do you want? Is it for investment or for living? A villa or a foreign house?” The assistant quickly answered and began to ask questions.
Ji Lingchen replied, “To live alone. A villa. The sooner the better.”
The assistant said, “Yes, I will help you find what you’re looking for.”
After hanging up the phone, Ji Lingchen turned around and went upstairs. It seemed that they really could not stay in the Ji family’s residence much longer. He originally wanted Feng Qi to bully Fang Xiaonuan, but in the end, it was Fang Xiaonuan who retaliated.
The Ji family was becoming more and more chaotic. Every day, Ji Lingchen’s mind was stuck at home. With Fang Xiaonuan’s personality, he clearly did not need to worry about being bullied, but he was always afraid that she would be wronged. In order to put an end to this matter, they had to move.
After doing this, Ji Lingchen only had to wait for Fang Xiaonuan to come back. Then, he would inform her about moving out. He waited and waited. When it got dark, he did not wait for Fang Xiaonuan to come back. Instead, he called Fang Xiaonuan. His phone could be heard ringing through the cracks in the sofa cushions.
......
Fang Xiaonuan did not bring her phone with her when she left the house. Realizing this, Ji Lingchen started to look for her. He stopped a servant and asked, “Have you seen the second young madam?”
The servant shook her head. She did not dare to speak to Ji Lingchen directly. Ji Lingchen frowned and went to the monitoring room.
Fang Xiaonuan was brought out by the servant in the afternoon. After she broke free, she went out alone. Ji Lingchen sat in the monitoring room thinking. He understood that Fang Xiaonuan would not return to her mother’s house after being wronged. It was already so late. Where would she go?
The young girl was penniless in the middle of the night. She did not even bring her cell phone. If she did not return home in the middle of the night, she could not possibly do anything else. Ji Lingchen had no clue at all. However, he understood one thing: he could not just wait.
...
Fang Xiaonuan ran out of the Ji family’s house in the afternoon after the angry fight. After she came out, she realized that she had not brought anything with her. In order to not let her parents worry, she could only look for her best friend, He Lili.
He Lili’s family background was not bad. Her father and brother were both police officers, and her mother was a businesswoman. Although He Lili was not a socialite like Fang Xiaonuan, no one dared to provoke her. This was mainly because she had a brother who doted on her like his life depended on it — He Qun.
As long as He Lili said the word, there was almost nothing that her brother could not do. She and Fang Xiaonuan were fated to meet. She did not expect the two of them to have similar personalities and become best friends who talked about everything.
As for the matter of the Ji family forcing the marriage, Fang Xiaonuan only told He Lili about it. At that time, He Lili was indignant and wanted to stand up for Fang Xiaonuan, but she stopped her. “Please don’t. The Ji family is not to be trifled with. Don’t involve your mom in this.” Fang Xiaonuan had stopped her in the end, and He Lili finally gave up.
Fang Xiaonuan never thought that when she met her best friend again, she would actually seek her help. She walked for three hours before she reached the He family’s house. She knocked on the door, and the person who opened it was He Lili.
“Lili, can I stay at your house for one night?” When she saw her best friend, Fang Xiaonuan’s started crying. She wiped the tears off her face and asked the question in a pleading tone.
He Lili said, “What nonsense are you talking about? Of course you can. Don’t even mention it for a second!” Seeing her best friend, Lili pulled her into the house. “Nuannuan, what happened to you? Did the Ji family bully you?”
Fang Xiaonuan nodded. In front of He Lili, she would never hide anything. “They did bully me, but I’m not someone to be trifled with. I hit them back.”
