"Ji Shunuan, without the Ji family, you are nothing."

"The reason why the Gu family likes you is just because your last name is Ji!" Ji Wushuang reminded coldly.

I thought Ji Shunuan would be at a loss, but unexpectedly she looked at me coldly, then turned and left without even looking at me.

"Ah." Ji Wushuang was a little crazy.

I stood there for a long time, the news I received echoing in my ears.

"The Gu family is preparing to form an alliance with the An family. He almost did something stupid tonight and was reported."

Ji Wushuang kept gasping for air. She gritted her teeth, turned around, and strode towards another VIP ward. When she pushed the door open, she saw that Ji Jianchong and Leng Chunhong both looked unwell.

"Dad, Mom." Ji Wushuang suppressed the anger in his heart.

Ji Jianchong was lying on the hospital bed, his face pale. He had been ill for several days and had no medicine to treat his condition. He was so weak that he was unwilling to speak.

Leng Chunhong, on the other hand, was sitting there peeling an apple, but her actions betrayed her inner feelings.

With a "bang", she threw the fruit knife onto the table. Her heavily made-up face was distorted and somewhat hideous. She shouted coldly: "The Gu family is really too much."

"You slept with my daughter and still want to form an alliance with the An family? Do you really think that all of us in the Ji family are as incompetent as Ji Shunuan?" Leng Chunhong cursed, gritting her teeth.

When Ji Wushuang heard this, she lowered her eyes and concealed the cruelty in her eyes.

She stood there and walked forward step by step.

"Dad, didn't you say before that Ji Shunuan had some money and would be tied to the Gu family after the marriage? Now the Gu family is being attacked online, their reputation is damaged, and their stocks are falling."

"Then we will lend them a helping hand and completely withdraw Ji Shunuan's funds from the Gu family! With An's current business model, we can't help the Gu family at all."

"I want to see whether the Gu family has relied on our Ji family to get to where they are today over the years." Ji Wushuang's eyes were full of calculation.

To say that you don't hate me is a lie.

What she wanted was the position of Mrs. Gu. Since Gu Zhiyuan didn't want to give it to her, no one else could get it.

"What if the Gu family falls out with us? Wouldn't that be more trouble than it's worth?" Leng Chunhong was a little nervous.

Ji Wushuang stood there proudly, holding her LV bag and placing it on the table. She sat elegantly on the sofa and looked around the environment in the VIP ward.

"Now they want to marry into the An family, isn't that a slap in our face? Besides, Ji Shunuan has also called off the engagement, so we can help her and withdraw all the funds."

"We can't touch those properties, but that doesn't mean we can't make the decision." Ji Wushuang said coldly.

The calculation in her eyes was almost no longer concealed.

"I want to see what Ji Shunuan will do to me." Ji Wushuang sneered and raised his chin, with a flash of viciousness in his eyes.

In the ward.

Ji Shunuan came back and saw An Linlin sleeping soundly. She was leaning on the single sofa, looking sideways at the night scene outside the window. Perhaps her nerves were too tense tonight, and her body was exhausted after relaxing.

She sat there leaning against the wall and soon fell asleep.

That night, she was haunted by nightmares! Many bloody scenes kept magnifying before her eyes.

"Ah." Ji Shunuan looked at the invisible hand that pinched her neck. She suddenly woke up, cold sweat oozing from her forehead and sliding down her cheeks.

She looked around in shock and saw a familiar figure standing in front of the window.

"Nuannuan is awake?" came the old lady's voice.

She put the food box down, turned around and walked towards her. Her pale hair was tied up with a hairpin, and she exuded an elegant and indifferent aura.

"Grandma? Why are you here?" Ji Shunuan rubbed his temples and stood up from the sofa.

The old lady hurried forward and helped her sit down.

"I heard from Acheng that your friend was sick, so I came to see him." The old lady said as she stood there bent over, looking at Ji Shunuan's face.

"Did Nuannuan have a nightmare? Are you feeling unwell? Do you want to ask a doctor to take a look?" The old lady's eyes were filled with worry.

She looked unhappy and it was obvious that something was wrong.

Ji Shunuan felt warmed by her concern and quickly shook her head and said, "Grandma, I'm fine."

Seeing this, the old lady hurriedly urged her, "Go wash your face. Grandma has made you some ginseng soup. Drink more later."

"Okay." Ji Shunuan responded and quickly got up and walked towards the bathroom.

After washing her face, her cell phone vibrated. Seeing hundreds of unfamiliar missed calls, she frowned in confusion and ignored them.

"Nuannuan, are you ready? Come out and have some soup." The old lady's voice came from outside.

Ji Shunuan restrained his expression and walked out with his cell phone.

Seeing the old lady serving her a bowl of soup, An Linlin woke up without knowing when! She was looking at her with envy and whispered, "Nuannuan, where did you get such a good grandma?"

"Haha, are you envious?" Ji Shunuan saw her face full of envy.

She hurried forward, hugged the old lady's arm affectionately, bent down and leaned her head on the old lady's shoulder, and said in a half-coquettish tone: "Don't be envious, she is mine."

"Haha! I'm jealous, grandma, I want to drink two bowls." Seeing this, An Linlin became anxious.

After a night's rest, although the events of last night left a shadow on her, it did not affect her mood.

When Ji Shunuan saw her sitting up, he immediately said, "Grandma, I want to drink too!"

"Grandma, I want one too." Seeing this, An Linlin started to shoulder the load with her.

The two girls clamored for soup, which amused the old lady. She almost smiled with her teeth showing, and happily served them soup, saying, "Yes, all."

Ji Shunuan took the soup and raised an eyebrow at An Linlin.

"What's going on? When did this extra grandma appear?" An Linlin asked in a low voice while drinking her soup.

She was itching with curiosity.

The old lady's words and actions were elegant and proper. Although she was dressed simply, her temperament was excellent, like a lady from a noble family.

A person’s clothes may be deceiving, but his temperament and conversation cannot be deceiving.

"Didn't you say you wanted to find a man the day before yesterday? She is the grandmother of the man I'm looking for." Ji Shunuan said mysteriously in a low voice.

An Linlin was shocked.

Her beautiful eyes widened, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

He turned his head in disbelief and stared at Ji Shunuan.

After a long time, she finally took a breath.

"I thought you were just joking, did you really find it?" An Linlin gasped.

I knew Ji Shunuan was a man of swift and decisive actions, but I didn't expect it to be like riding a roller coaster.

"Otherwise, where did you get this soup?" Ji Shunuan laughed softly, then fed An Linlin a mouthful.

As An Linlin drank the nourishing soup, she felt a sore sensation in her nose and her throat felt like it was choked by something.

"Nuannuan, I'm really sorry. I don't think I could have helped you in any way. Instead, I've held you back." An Linlin was still frightened when she thought of what happened last night.

Although I pretended to be calm, I was still very panicked inside.

"If you feel sorry, drink the soup quickly and take care of your body." Ji Shunuan said in a low voice.
