Mr. Bo, my wife is going on a date with someone again.

The old house had no soundproofing, and their quarrel could be heard clearly outside.

Yan Ji looked at Gu Chenye who suddenly appeared in front of him and asked, "What are you doing here?"

The man gave her an ungrateful look: "I'm afraid you'll be beaten to death."

Yan Weizheng was still furious: "Chenye, don't worry about this. I'm going to beat this rebellious girl to death today."

As he said this, he was about to pull his hand out, but he didn't. His excitement gradually calmed down because of this. The look he gave Gu Chenye was filled with a complex feeling of disbelief and relief.

As a father, how could he not wish the best for his children? Gu Chenye was the son-in-law he favored, but Yan Ji had used some trickery to marry him, and the relationship between the two families became more distant because of that.

He felt guilty towards the Gu family for raising such an unscrupulous daughter, so over the years, he never told anyone about the relationship between Chen Ye and Yan Ji, let alone linked the two together.

But if they could really get together, he would be happy to see it happen.

As for Yan Ji, who knows whose bad temper she inherited, if she really leaves it alone, she might be hacked to death on the street one day. With Chen Ye watching her, he feels relieved.

"Uncle, Yan Ji has nothing to do with the young master of the Xu family," Gu Chenye let go of his hand, his eyes swept across her face and fell on her, just in time to see the photo of Xu Yanli holding her into the elevator.

His eyes darkened, but his face remained expressionless: "Master Xu encountered some danger on the road last night. Yan Ji accidentally sprained his ankle when he was saving him. He is in the hospital. This is the paparazzi who deliberately misled people by picking the angle to attract attention."

The photo was blurred, and except for two people who were clear, everything else was blurry. Yan Wei Zheng did not deal with the media and was not clear about the ins and outs of this.

While Gu Chenye was talking, Yan Ji just watched as if it had nothing to do with her. Yan Weizhen originally felt a little guilty for misunderstanding her, but when he saw her like this, his brows, which had just relaxed with great difficulty, frowned again.

Pointing at her, he said to Gu Chenye, "Look at her like this. If you know her, you'll think she has a mouth. If you don't know her, you'll think she has a machine gun. When she opens her mouth, it either fires or it misfires. If she says two more words, is she going to be killed or something?"

Yan Ji curled his lips slightly, with a clear expression of mockery on his face. Just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted by Gu Chenye: "Yan Ji, go out first. I have something to talk to my uncle about."

If she really opened her mouth, Yan Wei Zheng probably wouldn't be able to hold on for five minutes before being sent to the hospital again.

Yan Ji pushed the wheelchair out and happened to run into Yan Jiaojiao who was eavesdropping not far away. When she saw her come out, she breathed a sigh of relief without saying a word.

Yan Ji ignored her and went to the room he had lived in before. Soon, Yan Jiaojiao followed him in.

After all, she was young, and she couldn't suppress her emotions when something happened: "As long as you promise not to dwell on the past, I will help you plead with Dad, otherwise, things like today will happen more and more in the future. You don't want your parents to think that you are a fickle woman, right?"

"Haven't they felt that way a long time ago?" Otherwise, they wouldn't have convicted her without even asking a single question. "This is all thanks to your dedication in the past, slandering and defaming me in all kinds of ways."

Originally, those people just looked down on her for being a country bumpkin who had never seen the world, but those false and pornographic rumors aroused the darkness in those people's hearts. They began to surround her and talk to her with dirty topics. Some people even boasted about having slept with her for the sake of face. As the rumors spread, even untrue things became facts.

Yan Ji: "You were sneaking around the door and eavesdropping because you wanted to know if I said anything to Dad, right? Did you see me meeting Qian Wei that day?"

Her eyes were burning, and she had no intention of hiding anything: "She gave me a USB drive, which contained all the videos of me being bullied over the years."

Qian Wei didn't want to offend Mu Yunyao and the others, but was also afraid that they would not let her go. She pretended to obey but secretly disobeyed in order not to offend both sides, but there was no such good thing in the world.

"But it's useless to just stare at me. The USB drive is in Gu Chenye's hand," she slowed down her speech, admiring Yan Jiaojiao's constantly changing expression: "Why don't we make a bet? Do you think he will give the USB drive to my parents?"

"Impossible," Yan Jiaojiao's face flashed with panic and fear, and she pursed her lips pretending to be calm: "Brother Chenye will not help you. Sister Yunyao is his childhood sweetheart and fiancée. Even if he knew... he would not help you."

She didn't know yet that she and Mu Yunyao were not in the video.

Yan Ji: “Heh…”

Yan Jiaojiao was anxious: "Why don't you speak?"

"Nothing to say to an idiot."

Yan Ji never believed in luck. She has come this far by relying on her scheming and guessing people's minds. When she saw that the content of the video was different from what she wanted, she had already planned everything. Now she is betting that Gu Chenye is a human being and has the most basic conscience.

Silence spread in the room, and time seemed to be stretched endlessly, becoming a line segment with no end in sight, so tight that it was suffocating.

Yan Jiaojiao wanted to leave, but she didn't want Yan Ji to laugh at her, so she just stood there in a tangle of confusion. However, after just over a minute, she couldn't hold on any longer and asked like crazy, "You're lying to me, aren't you? If you had the video, you would have given it to Dad directly. Why did you bother?"

"Because you like him. The one you love should be stabbed by the knife, so that you will be hurt the most and feel more pain." Yan Ji said the most cruel and vicious words in the most careless tone: "If I gave the video to Dad, you would only feel resentment and anger. With your shamelessness, you might even become more and more courageous..."

"Click."

The sound of a door opening was heard not far away, from the direction of the study.

Yan Jiaojiao looked like a prisoner awaiting sentencing, her face was pale, her body was stiff, and she didn't even dare to look back at the door.

“Da da… Da da…”

Steady footsteps were approaching them. Yan Jiaojiao could distinguish the footsteps of everyone in the house and immediately realized that it was not Yan Weizheng and Zhou Shuyue's. It could only be Gu Chenye.

Yan Ji saw that she was so nervous that she could hardly stand. Even though it was winter, beads of sweat rolled down her forehead. "Kneel down and kowtow to me now. I might be kind enough to ask Dad for mercy for you."

The footsteps stopped at the door.

"Bah."

"Boom."

The former was the sound of Gu Chenye opening the door, and the latter was the sound of Yan Jiaojiao's body falling to the ground after she fainted.

Yan Ji's room is not big, and it doesn't look like Gu Mansion. There is a semi-open reception room behind the door to provide shelter.

He opened the door and went in, just in time to see Yan Jiaojiao lying limply in front of Yan Ji. He frowned and walked over quickly: "What did you say again?"

Yan Ji lowered his eyes and saw Yan Jiaojiao's eyelashes tremble: "I said you have a saint syndrome, you love this kind of thing the most."
