Chapter 482 - 480: Contest (Third Update)
Ji Yunlei was too furious to speak.
Yin Qin could no longer bear to watch.
He tugged at Ji Baixin, “Don’t talk to your father like that…”
Ji Baixin directly pushed Yin Qin away. She angrily said to Ji Yunlei, “From childhood till now, you have always only cared about the eldest brother, because he is capable, because he is a son. When you cannot control big brother, you put your hopes on Baili. In your eyes, only a son can continue the family lineage. What am I then? What does my mom matter to you!”
“A woman must stick to a woman’s duties. What is the need for ambition when supporting a good man is enough! I am to be blamed for not educating you well enough, letting you grow up to be so disrespectful!”
“Yes, you didn’t educate me well. None of you did. And you can’t even do it now. I’ve been kicked out of the house by you not just once but twice, you have hated me not just once but twice. I didn’t return to seek your forgiveness, nor did I come to negotiate, I just came to notify you. By the way, you do not need to interfere in my affairs in the future!” Ji Baixin’s voice was loud, very loud!
Ji Yunlei was trembling with rage.
Ji Baixin grabbed Yin Qin’s hand and left immediately.
Yin Qin hesitated for a moment but followed Ji Baixin and left.
All the people watched them come and go, the house was filled with a chaotic atmosphere.
Ji Yunlei yelled at their backs, “Ji Baixin, remember what you said!”
Ji Baixin ignored Ji Yunlei.
Ji Yunlei was furiously agitated.
He yelled at Zhang Qingmei, “This is your daughter! This is who you raised! If she even dares to die, she is not allowed to step foot in the Ji Family!”
Once finished, he left in anger.
Zhang Qingmei didn’t dare let out a breath against Ji Yunlei’s righteousness.
Right now, because of Ji Baixin, her eyes were red.
She had no idea why Ji Baixin’s temperament was like this!
She had no idea why Ji Baixin had changed like this.
“Mom.” Ji Baili couldn’t bear to watch any longer.
Zhang Qingmei’s eyes turned redder and redder.
“I’ll accompany you back to your room.” Ji Baili took Zhang Qingmei upstairs.
Song Zhizhi simply watched them leave.
She turned back, “Has Ji Baixin always been so explosive in temperament?”
Ji Baijian nodded.
“I hadn’t noticed it before.” Song Zhizhi murmured, “Doesn’t look like someone easy to deal with.”
Ji Baijian stated, “I have predicted it would end like this.”
“So now…your family is like this?” asked Song Zhizhi.
Just let Ji Baixin and her father remain estranged?
Just watch coldly as the elder brother.
“It has always been like this.” Ji Baijian stated, “Baixin created a scene when our parents opposed her being with Li Wenjun, we are used to it.”
Alright then.
She was overthinking.
But it must be said, she genuinely felt some sympathy for Zhang Qingmei in that moment.
She always felt that Zhang Qingmei had suffered a lot due to Ji Baixin in the Ji family.
For such a patriarchal person like Ji Yunlei, he definitely wouldn’t think he was wrong and would keep blaming Zhang Qingmei…
She didn’t particularly like Ji Baixin.
Although she couldn’t stand gender bias and thought pursuing one’s life wasn’t wrong, Ji Baixin was so self-centered that she even bordered on selfishness.
Yin Qin drove Ji Baixin away.
The atmosphere inside the car was very depressing.
After keeping silent for a long time, Yin Qin couldn’t help but speak, “Baixin, I don’t think it’s necessary for you to fall out with your parents like this.”
“Can’t you see how much my father looks down on me?”
“After all, he is an elder.”
“So elders can prioritize males over females, they should be self-righteous!”
“What I mean is, you can talk things out nicely. There’s no need to fight with them like this.”
“Yin Qin, if you don’t know about my family’s situation, then don’t speak. I don’t want to argue with you over my family matters. We’ve argued enough lately. I don’t want us to keep arguing endlessly. I’m tired!” Ji Baixin was a bit agitated.
Yin Qin paused for a while.
Yes.
He was tired too.
He also didn’t want to quarrel anymore.
He only felt that if the Ji family could raise people like Ji Baijian and Ji Baili, Ji Yunlei couldn’t be that unreasonable!
Forget it.
Ji Baixin has always disliked her father, and he didn’t want to impose.
Moreover.
He truly felt that he didn’t have any influence over Ji Baixin, whether in the past, now, or in the future!
…
When Ji Baijian was driving Song Zhizhi home, he received a phone call.
Ji Baijian’s face changed slightly.
After hanging up, Song Zhizhi asked, “What’s wrong?”
Ji Baijian said, “Weng Cheng has left.”
“What do you mean?”
“He’s going to meet Ye Wenhan.”
“Huh?”
“Yin Qin and I have set a trap for Ye Wenhan,” Ji Baijian confessed bluntly. “Ye Wenhan must have been involved in the last kidnapping of Baixin, and that’s how Weng Cheng got control of the Milky Way. Now, Weng Cheng has to face legal charges for trying to defile Baixin. He will certainly want Ye Wenhan to help him. Considering Ye Wenhan’s character, or accurately speaking, Guanshu’s character, do you think he’s going to let Weng Cheng threaten him however he pleases?”
“You mean, they’ll try to kill Weng Cheng.”
“Yes, so I have people watching Weng Cheng to get evidence of Ye Wenhan’s wrongdoing.”
“I see.” Song Zhizhi nodded.
She thought that Ji Baijian had been doing nothing at home all this while, but she hadn’t realized that he had been scheming so much.
It seems like the plan was to draw the snake out of the hole by having Yin Qin work in the Milky Way huh?!
What a cunning old fox.
…
Following Ye Wenhan’s instructions, Weng Cheng got in his car and headed for the destination.
He was deep in thought as he drove.
Why did Ye Wenhan want to meet him alone?
But then he thought about how he had no other option but to rely on him, and steeled himself to go.
He arrived at the destination, a worn-out area in Jin City. It took him a while to find the building Ye Wenhan mentioned.
He pushed the door and went in.
It was deserted.
Weng Cheng looked around, then reached for his phone to make a call.
Just then, the door was abruptly closed.
Weng Cheng rushed over, but he couldn’t open the door from inside.
The phone connected at that moment, Weng Cheng shouted, “Ye Wenhan, where are you? I’m warning you, don’t try any tricks. If you dare to pull any stunts, I’ll report you immediately.”
“And how are you going to report me?” Ye Wenhan sneered on the phone. “Even if I kill you now, people will just think you committed suicide!
“You dare. I’m telling you, I have evidence on you. If you dare to touch me, I’ll make sure that the evidence is handed over to report you.”
“Who’s gonna do it? Your mother?”
“I’m not telling you who, but if you try to kill me, I’ll make sure we both go down.”
“Hand over the evidence, and I won’t kill you!”
“What did you say?”
“Give me the evidence, and I’ll help you get away.”
“You must think I am a fool!”
“You only have two choices. Either give me the evidence and I’ll get you out of the country for the time being, or you’ll die here in this room. I’ll give you three minutes to think.”
“Ye Wenhan!”
Ye Wenhan had already hung up the phone.
At that moment he was sitting not far away in a sedan. Guanshu, who felt uneasy, had come along with him.
Weng Cheng had played his cards right by saving some tricks
He looked grim. Luckily, his father had thought of rehearsing this act in advance.
Three minutes later.
Ye Wenhan rang again, “Have you made up your mind?”
“I want to see you, or I won’t hand it over.”
“Don’t be tricky!”
“You’re the one who’s been playing tricks!” Weng Cheng responded, holding back his fury.
Ye Wenhan hung up and looked at his father.
Guanshu said, “I’ll go!”
Ye Wenhan stared at him, it was clear that he mistrusted him.
“You can go back on your own.”
Ye Wenhan had no choice but to follow the arrangements.
He got out of the car and watched as the sedan drove off.
“Has anyone suspicious been sighted nearby?” Guanshu asked as he headed to his destination.
“Three suspicious vehicles have been detected. They followed Weng Cheng in phases and one of them is parked not far from here.”
Guanshu smirked. “It seems someone is trying to plot against me in secret. I’ll take on this challenge.”
“Yes, sir.”
“Let’s first go to the destination,” Guanshu ordered.
“Yes, sir.”
Looking at the darkening sky, Guanshu’s lips curled into a blood-thirsty grin.
For the sake of consolidating Ye Wenhan’s power, he had been silent for too long.
He really wanted to find out who it was that had been making life difficult for him from the shadows.
Ji Baijian?!
That man should’ve been dead a long time ago. The fact that he was still alive simply meant he was digging his own grave!
