lunch break.

In the duty room, Tang Junyao and Su Xue were chatting on the bed.

Su Xue turned to look at her and asked, "Hey, beautiful lady, what were your thoughts on your first visit to the Ji residence yesterday?"

"It's very big, very luxurious, and very crowded." This was her most frequent summary of the impressions.

"That's it. Is your vocabulary running low? Nothing special happened overnight. For example, how did your in-laws treat you?" That hit the nail on the head.

"I didn't get to see my father-in-law, whom I've never met before, he was away on a business trip. As for my mother-in-law, what kind of attitude do you think she could have? She only said 'hmm' to me the whole time. But I do want to ask you something: how much do you know about my mother-in-law?" She felt a little curious about this incredibly powerful woman.

Su Xue wasn't surprised by Madam Ji's attitude towards her best friend. Madam Ji herself was from a wealthy family, and Ji Hancheng was an only son. As a mother, it was not wrong for her to hope that her son would marry a woman who could help his career. Besides, this marriage was forced by Old Master Ji, so it was not of his own volition.

Su Xue told Tang Junyao everything she knew without reservation: "You mean Madam Ji? She's the only daughter of the Yuan family in the capital, and the only precious jewel in their eye. They have no sons, only Madam Ji. Although the Yuan family isn't among the four great families, they're still the only ones besides those four. And I've heard that those who have met Madam Ji say that her methods are very similar to Master Ji's. Some even say that Master Ji was trained by Madam Ji. In the entire Ji family, apart from Old Master Ji, even Master Ji's father doesn't have as much prestige as her."

She certainly has a powerful impact, but she doesn't have much prestige yet. Wasn't she the only one busy in the kitchen yesterday?

What's going on here? Are the rumors circulating outside misleading people?

Tang Junyao suddenly remembered something. "Oh, right, I have a coincidence to tell you that you might be interested in."

Now Su Xue got excited and sat up abruptly, looking at her expectantly, as if to say, "I'm ready, go ahead."

Tang Junyao chuckled, "I just wanted to tell you something, why are you so excited? Guess who I saw at the Ji residence yesterday?"

Su Xue shook her head vigorously, unable to guess that her best friend could run into an acquaintance at the Ji residence. She couldn't possibly think of anyone Tang Junyao knew who she didn't know, so she simply couldn't come up with a solution.

She urged, "Hurry up and say it, don't ramble on like toothpaste, squeezing it out bit by bit."

"Tang Junting, are you surprised or not? I never thought I would meet her on my first visit to the Ji family. It's really a twist of fate, there's no way to avoid it."

"My God, how did someone like her get into the Ji residence? Did she climb in?" Su Xue was a little incredulous.

"She walked in openly and honestly, but she got the short end of the stick last night. She didn't say a word and acted like she'd seen a cat when she saw me."

After all, she's from the Ji family, so she had to be more restrained. If she wanted to pretend, Su Xue could easily guess how she got in. "Who did she go in with?" The Ji family members should all be quite sensible; bringing a woman like that into a gathering... unless...

Suddenly realizing what was happening, she blurted out, "Ji Mingyuan, damn it, she wouldn't be so shameless as to try and hook up with Ji Mingyuan, would she?"

Tang Junyao gave her a thumbs up, "Big sister, you're so smart, you're the one who's a spoiled brat."

"Wait a minute, Yao Yao, how do you know he's a spoiled brat?" Could it be that Young Master Ji told her?

They don't get along, do they? They shouldn't be at the point where they can share family matters.

Speaking of this, Tang Junyao felt a little nauseous. "That idiot came to see me this morning and got an appointment to see a doctor." His clothes practically screamed "I'm in heat!"

"He's asking for it. Young Master Ji just brought you home yesterday. The whole family knows you're Ji Hancheng's wife, and he still dares to flirt with you. Is he sick in the head? Isn't he afraid Young Master Ji will beat him to death? Didn't you suggest he go to a psychiatrist?"

"I wanted to give him a suggestion, but when I saw him, I didn't want to say another word, afraid of sulking."

Su Xue felt a little scared when she thought about that playboy's penchant for playing with women. Before her brother went abroad, he repeatedly told her to stay away from Ji Mingyuan and even told her about some of his bad deeds.

Thinking back, I was a little worried. "Yaoyao, I think you need to talk to Young Master Ji about this. What if something goes wrong? Ji Mingyuan is the kind of person who won't give up until he gets what he wants, and his methods are a bit perverse."

Confident Yao: "It's okay, I can beat him."

Su Xue wanted to say that his skills were definitely not as good as hers, but he was, after all, the grandson of the Ji family, and she had no idea how many dirty tricks he used.

The rain continued to fall lightly, and the ground in front of the hospital was already flooded.

As the end of the workday approached, Su Xue felt uneasy. After much deliberation, she decided to tell Ji Shao about it. After all, Yao Yao was his wife, and he couldn't just ignore her being harassed by her own brother during their marriage.

That's so embarrassing.

First, find Young Master Ji. If Young Master Ji doesn't care, then try to find Old Master Ji.

We can't let Yao Yao be in danger; she's already pitiful enough.

She pulled out Lu Jinnan's WeChat account and, without a word, said directly, "Give me Young Master Ji's number, I need it urgently."

Lu Jinnan was having tea with Han Yue over here. He had arrived early because Ji Hancheng said he would be coming to fight that evening.

Hearing the notification sound of his phone on the table, he reached out his aching hand to pick it up and check it.

Su Xue.

This woman still dares to send him messages. If she hadn't exaggerated and tricked him last time, would Ji Hancheng have beaten him so badly?

I simply threw the phone back on the table and ignored it.

Han Yue took a sip of tea and said casually, "He can't sleep, he's not even replying to messages."

Lu Jinnan rolled his eyes at him: "You're crazy. Do you think I'd dare sleep with Miss Su? She asked me for Young Master Ji's number?"

He really didn't dare, fearing that Su Yu would sharpen his knife and attack.

Han Yue casually asked, "What does she want with Young Master Ji? Isn't she Miss Tang's best friend? She can just ask her."

Just then, Su Xue's voice call popped up, and Lu Jinnan rejected it without hesitation.

They called again, but were refused again.

Enraged, Su Xue unleashed a tirade, sending a voice message: "Lu Jinnan, if you don't answer and something happens to Yao Yao, how are you going to explain this to Young Master Ji?"

The voice message was played aloud, and Han Yue heard it too. "Answer it quickly."

He, who was always perceptive, could hear the anxiety in Miss Su's tone.

Han Yue's serious expression startled Lu Jinnan, who quickly called back, "What's wrong?"

Su Xue didn't want to waste any more words with him and said directly, "Give me Young Master Ji's number right now, something might happen to Yao Yao."

Lu Jinnan: "He'll come over tonight. Tell me, and I'll tell him tonight."

Forget it, not everyone can get Master Ji's phone number: "Ji Mingyuan has his eye on Yao Yao. He came to the hospital this morning to see her. Remind Young Master Ji to help protect Yao Yao."

Lu Jinnan is a scumbag in the industry, but he's a scumbag in a very real way.

Even a scumbag like him despises and looks down on people like Ji Mingyuan. Someone who dares to even covet his sister-in-law is worse than an animal. He must be tired of living.

They dare to touch Master Ji's things.

"I understand, I'll call him right now." After hanging up, he was still cursing and swearing, making Ji Mingyuan sound like he didn't even recognize his own parents.

Han Yue was annoyed by his nagging: "Hurry up and make the call. Don't do anything reckless, or you'll end up with new injuries before your old ones have healed."

Han Yue never said a kind word.

He hurriedly dialed Ji Hancheng's number. He was on his way to pick up Tang Junyao: "What's wrong? Are you itching for a beating again?"

"That's not very nice of you, Mr. Ji. We should have settled things from last time. You can't keep bringing this up. I'll give you some information so we can move on, okay?"

"It depends on the value of the information." A typical shrewd businessman.

Lu Jinnan said definitively, "The information I provided is absolutely valuable."

"Speak." He didn't have the patience to argue with him.

"Your younger brother has taken a liking to your sister-in-law. This morning he rushed to the hospital to chat with her, supposedly to see her for a medical appointment. He even made an appointment. As for what kind of medical appointment he wants, you should know." Young Master Ji knew his good-for-nothing younger brother inside and out.

Sure enough, the phone call was ruthlessly disconnected.

Seeing his boss's face turn as black as the bottom of a pot, Xu Mingkai, who was in front, asked somewhat nervously, "Young Master Ji, what's wrong? Is there anything I need to handle?"

The man fiddled with his watch, tapping it absently, a sound that resonated in Xu Mingkai's heart: "Compile a list of the women Ji Mingyuan has ruined this year and anonymously send it to Ji Ting. Also, tell him to keep an eye on Ji Mingyuan."

Xu Mingkai: It seems this ancestor has crossed Young Master Ji's bottom line. Originally, Young Master Ji would turn a blind eye to him and completely ignore him.

What did he do this time to deserve this?

It's still that strong medicine.
