Accidentally provoking the spring tide

Chapter 51. I'm Married.
Upon hearing this, Assistant Li's face suddenly darkened.

Ever since he discovered that Wang Ling had replaced Wish Studio without his consent, he had been secretly investigating her, and unexpectedly, he had uncovered quite a lot.

But I haven't had a chance to tell Ji Yanci yet.

Unexpectedly, Wang Ling couldn't wait to give him another "surprise" as soon as he arrived today!
Suppressing his anger, Assistant Li said respectfully to Jiang Jixu, "Miss Jiang, don't worry, I will tell President Ji about this. We at Ji's will not keep such a person any longer. Everything will be handled according to legal procedures."

He called security guards to watch over Wang Ling and wait for the police to arrive.

Then he turned to Jiang Jixu and said, "You're here to see President Ji, right?"

Jiang Jixu nodded and stood up.

The two walked through the crowd and headed straight for the president's private elevator that led directly to the 28th floor.

The moment the elevator doors closed, the silent crowd instantly became restless.

"Holy crap, who is that person? Assistant Li was being so polite to her..."

"Her surname is Jiang, so she couldn't be from that Jiang family—"

Wang Ling was being supported, and her wrists and tailbone were still throbbing with pain, but she seemed oblivious to it.

He stared blankly in the direction of the elevator.

She is a middle manager in the company.

No one understood better than her what Assistant Li's attitude meant.

He followed Ji Yanci around every day, and apart from people in that circle, no one else could earn such respect from him.

Jiang Jixu.

ginger.

Jiang family.

The answer couldn't be more obvious.

Wang Ling trembled all over.

However, before she could make a move, a group of people walked over.

The woman in the lead said coldly:

"Wang Ling, we suspect you of embezzlement, bribery, and abuse of power while in charge of company projects. You are now suspended from your duties pending investigation..."

In the elevator.

Assistant Li put away his phone. "Ms. Jiang, I will report Wang Ling's matter to President Ji. Rest assured, we will handle this matter properly and give you an explanation."

Jiang Jixu nodded slightly, his expression indifferent.

Assistant Li looked at the girl, his eyelids twitching slightly.

In the past, Jiang Jixu would have definitely used this as an excuse to ask him about Ji Yanci's recent situation.

But today...

Assistant Li could only console himself that perhaps Miss Jiang was frightened by what had just happened.

Which girl wouldn't be scared if someone attacked her with a knife?
As soon as Jiang Jixu stepped out of the elevator, she saw a pot of jasmine flowers placed at the door.

She was very familiar with the pattern on the flowerpot.

She picked it out herself at the market.

The jasmine flowers inside were also planted by her own hands.

It was originally placed next to Ji Yanci's desk to relieve his migraines, but now it's here.

It goes without saying who threw it out.

Jiang Jixu remained silent, simply following Assistant Li toward Ji Yanci's office.

"Mr. Ji, Miss Jiang has arrived."

Ji Yanci was on the phone with someone when he heard this. He looked up slightly, his gaze passing over Assistant Li and landing on Jiang Jixu behind him. His peach blossom eyes were slightly upturned, and his beautiful face was lazy and casual: "Well, that's all for now. I have something to do here, so I'll hang up."

With a wave of his hand, Assistant Li turned and left, closing the office door behind him.

Ji Yanci hung up the phone, his voice slightly hoarse.

"Would you like a coffee?"

Although it was a question, he had already selected coffee beans and started grinding them.

Jiang Jixu wasn't given a chance to refuse at all.

Jiang Jixu lowered his eyes, showing no surprise whatsoever.

Ji Yanci has always been like this; he appears gentle and easygoing, but in reality, he is self-centered and arrogant.

She walked over to the sofa and sat down.

The man placed a cup of coffee in front of her: "Try it, it's a new Blue Mountain coffee, you should like it."

Jiang Jixu stared at the coffee in front of him without making a move.

"What's wrong? You're still angry?"

Ji Yanci sat down on the sofa, his posture casual and languid. His gaze swept lightly over her beautiful eyebrows and eyes, and his tone revealed a natural intimacy and helplessness: "Jiang Xiaoxu, I didn't go to the engagement party, but you were absent too. We should be even, right?" "It doesn't seem fair to me to be so angry with me like this."

Ji Yanci was always so calm and composed, as if everything was just her being capricious and throwing a tantrum.

He seemed certain that no matter what happened, she wouldn't leave.

Jiang Jixu chuckled softly, raised her eyes, and met his gaze.

"Mr. Ji, I remember sending you a breakup text the night before."

Ji Yanci's casual smile faltered slightly.

His well-defined knuckles were bent and rested on his knees.

He slightly raised his beautiful peach blossom eyes, a hint of coldness and sharpness emanating from them. "Jiang Xiaoxu, do you know what you're saying?"

He received that breakup text message.

But Ji Yanci never took it seriously.

Girls always seem to have "break up" on their lips. Jiang Jixu is considered well-behaved; aside from the time with Lin Qingqing, she's never argued with him over the years. But that doesn't change Ji Yanci's judgment about this text message.

It was just a joke.

But now, Jiang Jixu is saying this to his face?

Ji Yanci felt his patience was running out.

"Breaking up is fine," he said coldly, "but you have to give me a reason."

"The marriage alliance between the Jiang and Ji families is not a trivial matter; it cannot be dissolved with just a word from you—"

"I am married."

Ji Yanci paused for two seconds, his gaze instantly freezing. "What did you say?"

He felt that he had heard wrongly.

Jiang Jixu spoke calmly, looking into the man's eyes, and repeated himself.

"The reason is that I'm married."

Their eyes met, and Ji Yanci suddenly laughed out loud. He stood up from the sofa, put his hands in his pockets, and looked down at her.

"You got married." He repeated the word carefully, as if he had heard a funny joke. "To whom?"

Jiang Jixu was about to speak.

The man's phone rang urgently.

Ji Yanci cut the sentence off quickly.

But the other party persisted.

He frowned slightly and finally took out his phone to glance at it.

It's He Yongwen.

His expression froze, and he slightly raised his eyes, as if he wanted to say something, but he saw that Jiang Jixu, who was sitting on the sofa, had already picked up his coffee and was adding sugar to it.

The girl felt his gaze and paused slightly.

Her delicate features looked over, carrying an unsettling casualness.

Ji Yanci suppressed the anger welling up inside him and answered the phone in a retaliatory manner.

"what's up."

He Yongwen, on the other end of the phone, was taken aback when she heard the man's cold tone.

She woke up this morning to find that the trending topics she had purchased had disappeared.

Both the photos and the messages disappeared completely.

When Sister Man went to ask the media outlet that broke the news, they also claimed to know nothing.

He Yongwen felt uneasy. In her eyes, only Ji Yanci could achieve this level of success overnight.

He doesn't want their affair to be exposed?

I still feel that the rumors spread by netizens have hurt Ms. Jiang...

Unable to contain herself, He Yongwen made a phone call to Ji Yanci to test the waters.

"Ah Ci, are you busy right now?"

She said cautiously, "You left your watch at my house last night."
