Hiding her pregnant belly! The wicked ex-wife of the true young master has awakened.

"What a joke! How old is she? I feel embarrassed for her."

"Yes, even if her son has severed ties with her, he still has money and power in his hands. He could have enjoyed his old age in peace, but instead he's caused such a disgraceful incident."

"Old Mrs. Ji has always prided herself on being aloof and virtuous. After this incident, she probably won't dare to go out and see anyone anymore."

"Truth and falsehood are intertwined. Since the rumors have spread, there must be some underlying issues. Otherwise, who would bother attacking someone who's practically half-buried?"

"..."

"Have you heard about what happened to Mrs. Ji a while back?"

She lowered her voice, "As for the wife of the eldest son of the Ji family, I have met Mrs. Ji. She is a beautiful woman with a wonderful personality. Even so, she was still rumored to be having an affair with her brother-in-law. This is different."

"I know a little bit about it. The kidnapping case back then caused quite a stir. It was said that Mrs. Ji was rescued by her brother-in-law and was photographed looking disheveled."

"It's all fake. Later, I went to the Ji family to see Mrs. Ji. It was clearly her brother-in-law who was shot. Mrs. Ji tore off a piece of her clothes to bandage him, which is why her clothes were a little messy. People spread rumors that the two of them were having an affair. I suspect that the old lady disliked Mrs. Ji and spread the news."

"Tsk, how could this happen? That Mrs. Ji is truly pitiful. The old lady has gotten what she deserved; the boomerang has hit her own back."

"Yes, Mr. Ji found someone to clarify and block the news. He treated people as before, guarding them day and night. He was so affectionate. It is said that Mrs. Ji had a mental demon. Perhaps she was frightened by the kidnapping case. Or perhaps she abandoned her young son and ran away secretly, never to return."

"Rumors can be deadly. It's a pity for a couple in love. This shows that you still have to consider the mother-in-law when getting married. If you have a mother-in-law who loves to meddle, you'll suffer a lifetime of grievances."

"..."

In the ward.

The old lady turned ashen-faced upon seeing the overwhelming comments online, her chest heaving violently, and she smashed everything within reach.

"That bitch! It must be that bitch!"

"Investigate! Investigate quickly! Who did this!"

"Get someone to handle this! Immediately! Right now!"

"You even stepped on my foot after you left!"

The housekeeper quickly stepped forward to pat her back and naturally fed her water.

"Madam, please calm down. I've already had someone take care of it."

The old woman shoved aside the person next to her, the water glass shattering on the floor with a jarring sound, and roared angrily, "Get out! Get out of here! Don't let me see you again!"

The housekeeper poured her another glass of water and said gently, "Madam, please take care of yourself. I'll go outside and keep watch."

"Get lost! Are you afraid others won't see us? Don't show your face in front of me for at least a week!"

Soon, the ward door was pushed open again.

Just as the old lady was about to scold someone, Ji Jinxiao said in a deep voice, "Mom, the reason I still call you Mom is because Ji Jinliang doesn't acknowledge you anymore. If I don't acknowledge you either, our Ji family will really become a laughing stock."

"I've already had someone take care of the tabloid issue. After all these years, you've tasted the bitterness that Ah Ling suffered back then, haven't you?"

"Besides, she was framed, you really are."

The old lady was in tears. "I didn't mean it! Jinxiao, I was framed too. Believe me, you're all I have left."

"It must have been that ungrateful daughter that unfilial son brought back! Jinxiao, you have to clear Mom's name and teach her a lesson. She's incredibly audacious!"

"It wasn't her."

Ji Jinxiao placed the folder on the bedside table.

"Mom, I trust what I see with my own eyes more. I'll be more careful with my words and actions in the future, so that no one can find any fault with me, and please don't pursue this matter any further."

That's all I have to say. Get some rest.

The old lady lay on the hospital bed, her face ashen, and closed her eyes without saying another word.

Was she really wrong?

But if it happened again, she would still stop Yang Jialing from entering the house. A small-town exam-taker from a small place was not good enough for her son.

They're not good enough for either of them!

Yuncheng.

At 2 p.m., the private plane landed on the special helipad in the backyard of the Jin family villa.

Ye Yu carried the sleeping Jinzhi back to the master bedroom on the third floor.

I wiped her hands, feet, and face, changed her into her pajamas, and put her on the bed.

About half an hour later, Jinzhi woke up, felt the familiar bedding beneath her, and rolled over while holding Xiaolan, lying in the familiar and warm environment to wake up.

It's still most comfortable to sleep at home.

After lying down for a while, she picked up her phone to check her messages.

Upon seeing the newspaper article sent by Ji Zhenfeng, his still-unclear mind was jolted awake, and he sat up in bed.

It's news about an old lady having an affair with her housekeeper.

It's in the news!

Jinzhi stared at the tabloid again and again, her lips curving into a wider smile. All the grievances she had suffered in Beijing vanished in that moment, and she felt extremely relieved.

"Heaven has eyes; the old woman has received her just deserts!"

After enjoying the moment for a while, I carefully examined the caption following Ji Zhenfeng's photo.

I will handle this matter with my uncle; it won't involve the Jin family.

Won't this implicate the Jin family?

What does that mean?

Jinzhi lowered her eyes in deep thought.

He means...this matter is related to the Kim family?

She thoroughly investigated the Kim family and had her answer in mind.

Reply: Thank you.

Soon, Ye Yu carried a tray into the room and immediately saw Jin Zhi leaning against the headboard, squinting at him.

His face was expressionless.

"Why are you looking at me like that? It's creepy, are you having another weird dream?"

He placed the plate on the table, went over to find her slippers, and lifted the blanket to hold her ankles.

Jinzhi pressed her foot against his chest and grumbled, "Did you do something earth-shattering behind my back?"

As Ye Yu got closer, he noticed a smile in her eyes.

That's just how she is; her happiness or unhappiness is always written on her face, making her easy to recognize.

However, there are times when it's hard to tell her apart, and that's when she's being stubborn.

"You know now? Are you feeling better now?"

In the bright, warm-colored bedroom, sunlight streamed through the floor-to-ceiling windows, bathing the two of them in a golden glow.

Jinzhi wrapped her arms around his neck, kissed his forehead and both cheeks, and finally kissed his lips, deliberately making a "pop" sound.

"As a reward for you."

"Of course it's satisfying. The old woman must be furious. It's a complete revenge for my mother. You're a good son-in-law."

She pulled him to sit down on the edge of the bed.

"Tell me, how did you find that evidence? How could you be so cunning?"

"They even chose to leak the information when we were leaving. No matter how far the Ji family's influence extends, it can't reach Yuncheng."

Ye Yu was still savoring the four kisses he had just received.

"When I went to the hospital, I noticed that the housekeeper was always guarding the door of the ward. After he went in, the door wasn't closed properly, and there were some suspicious things about their behavior, so I looked into it."

"I hacked into the hospital's surveillance system and found out by watching the ward surveillance footage. You only know the pain when it happens to you."

"That old lady lived a respectable life her whole life, a wolf in sheep's clothing, she knew better than anyone how important reputation was, yet she resorted to such underhanded methods back then."

Those things are in the past. The most important thing is that she beat Jinzhi and bullied her, so she should pay the price for it.

"This matter can be considered minor or major. If she is truly innocent, public opinion will not be able to suppress her. However, if she has something to hide, it will be a fatal blow. It all depends on whether she cares or not."

Jinzhi hugged his arm and rested her head on his shoulder, sighing, "It feels so good to have someone stand up for you. Now it's all right, the old lady got what she deserved. Thank you, Ye Yu."
