Rebirth: What to do if you fall into a wolf's den

Ji's mother's words fell gently, like a spring breeze blowing across the lake, creating layers of delicate ripples.

As soon as he finished speaking, light and delicate footsteps were heard on the stairs, as if the footsteps of spring were approaching quietly and silently.

Ji Yan walked down the stairs slowly in a heart-warming manner. She was wearing a loose maternity dress, the hem of which swayed gently with her steps, like a flower blooming in the morning light, pure and beautiful.

The white and tender little feet gently slipped into the pair of warm wool slippers. Every step seemed so soft and weak, but it aroused the tenderness and protective desire deep in the hearts of the men present.

Their eyes were involuntarily attracted to her, and they felt an urge to hold her in their arms and take good care of her.

Mother Ji sat on the sofa, observing all this calmly. Her eyes were deep and sharp, taking in the complex expressions of the men.

Although their faces remained stern, the doting expressions between their eyebrows could not be concealed.

"Dad, Mom, poof! What are you doing..." Ji Yan's voice was filled with a bit of naivety and curiosity. She thought it was just an ordinary gathering, but she didn't expect to see unexpected people.

The smile on the little face froze instantly, replaced by a hint of uneasiness and nervousness.

Her little face drooped slightly, her delicate body couldn't help but tremble slightly, and her eyes began to become erratic, as if she was looking for a harbor to rely on.

In the end, she chose to lower her head, walked silently to Ji's mother, took her arm and sat down, seeking her mother's comfort and protection.

Seeing this, the aunt hurried forward, holding a cup of warm milk in her hand, and whispered softly: "Miss, this is your favorite milk."

Ji Yan took the milk, lowered her eyes slightly, and sipped it in small sips, as if savoring the warmth and care from her family. She kept looking at Ji's mother secretly, as if seeking some encouragement and affirmation.

Seeing this, Ji's mother gently raised her hand and gently wiped away the milk stains left at the corners of her daughter's mouth. She said with a hint of smile and suggestion: "Look at how drunk you are. If outsiders see you, they will laugh at you."

However, this sentence shows more love and pampering for the daughter.

Helian Minxiao stood aside, his eyes never leaving Ji Yan.

He said softly, "How could that be? Yanyan looks really cute when she drinks milk like this."

He completely ignored the hint in Ji's mother's words, and only had eyes for Ji Yan's innocent and slightly shy look.

His words were full of affection and doting for Ji Yan, which moved everyone present.

Father Ji watched from the side with a frown on his face, feeling mixed emotions.

He secretly complained in his heart: "Is it you who called me so affectionately? Humph! When I think that my precious daughter is going to become someone else's bride..." An indescribable emotion surged in his heart, including reluctance and worry for his daughter, as well as jealousy and dissatisfaction towards "rivals in love" like Helian Minxiao.

He couldn't help but want to step forward and teach these guys who "coveted" his daughter a lesson, but in the end he resisted the urge and just sighed softly.

The living room was quiet, with only the sound of Ji Yan sipping milk and the occasional bird song outside the window.

Ji Yan gently put down the milk cup in her hand, and her eyes met Helian Minxiao inadvertently. She pursed her lips slightly, a complex emotion flashed in her eyes, and then she glared at him quietly, as if silently questioning: "What is the purpose of your visit today?"

Seeing this, Ji's mother sighed inwardly. She stood up gently, walked to Ji Yan, reached out her hand and gently rubbed her daughter's soft hair, her eyes full of heartache and tenderness.

"Yan'er, they all told me." Ji's mother's words were gentle but with a hint of helplessness. She seemed to be trying her best to calm her daughter's emotions that were about to explode.

When Ji Yan heard this, her body stiffened unconsciously, as if an invisible shadow quietly shrouded her heart, making her already fair face look even more fragile and helpless.

Her eyelids slowly drooped, covering those eyes that were full of helplessness and fear, and her heart was in turmoil and could not calm down.

"What should I do... Mom and Dad know about it." Ji Yan's voice was as thin as a mosquito, but it was filled with unspeakable anxiety and uneasiness.

"What will they think of me? Will they... think that I'm an immoral, fickle woman?" There was a slight tremor in her voice, which was the fear of the unknown and the worry about her own future.

Mother Ji was even more upset when she heard this. She hugged Ji Yan tightly in her arms, as if to isolate all the anxiety and fear.

"Don't be afraid, daughter. We are all here." Her words were firm and warm, like a ray of warm sunshine penetrating the clouds and illuminating the haze in Ji Yan's heart.

"It's okay. I know everything. This is all their fault. They were too selfish and didn't consider your thoughts and feelings."

Ji's mother's words were full of love for her daughter and strong condemnation of those people, and there was a cold light flashing in her eyes.

After hearing what his wife said, Ji's father, who was sitting nearby, couldn't help but become secretly alert.

He was well aware of the powerful backgrounds of those five people. If he were to vent his anger on the Ji family or even Ji Yan herself because of this incident, the consequences would be disastrous.

He couldn't help but start to worry about his daughter's future: "If they are angry about this matter... it will not only affect our entire Ji family, but it may also put Yanyan in an irretrievable situation. If someone among them has ulterior motives and marries Yanyan home and then slowly tortures her... what should we do?"

However, facing the rejection and condemnation from Ji's father and mother, Helian Minxiao and other people present chose to endure it silently.

They knew that their current situation was awkward and dangerous, but as Yanyan's future partner they could not give up easily.

What's more, as Yanyan's parents, Ji's father and mother are also important and indispensable figures in their future marriage. Offending them would undoubtedly be digging one's own grave.

"Uncle and aunt, please listen to me..." Helian Minxiao finally spoke to break the silence. His voice was sincere and firm.

"We know that our actions have caused you trouble and harm, but we are sincere to Yanyan. Please give us a chance to prove our sincerity and determination."

His words were full of expectations for the future and a loving confession to Ji Yan.

Father and mother Ji looked at each other and although they saw the sincerity and determination in Helian Minxiao's eyes, they still had some doubts in their hearts.
