Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Having finally resolved his second son’s marriage, Old Master Ji’s complexion seemed much better. He sat down at the main seat and did not see Ji Lingchen. He asked, “Where’s Lingchen? Tell him to come downstairs for dinner.”

Fang Xiaonuan lowered her head and did not say a word, pretending she did not hear him.

Seeing this, the butler could only say, “Old Master, young master left last night. He said that he had something to deal with at the company.”

“What? He went to the company on his wedding night? Didn’t I tell you not to let him leave? Why didn’t anyone tell me!” Old Master Ji was furious.

Feng Qi said sarcastically, “Ji Lingchen doesn’t like to be at home to begin with. Now that there’s a woman he doesn’t like in the room. Naturally, he would stay far away.”

Ji Kangde slammed the table. “Shut up!” He could not stand his wife’s behavior. He stopped eating and directly pulled Feng Qi away.

Old Master Ji said angrily, “Call Ji Lingchen and get him to come back!”

The butler quickly replied, “Yes, sir.”

Ji Kangde pulled Feng Qi back to the bedroom. “Feng Qi, don’t think that I don’t know what you’re thinking. You’re not satisfied with Fang Xiaonuan marrying into the Ji family, but don’t forget that you’re only Lingchen’s sister-in-law. You have no right to interfere in Lingchen’s marriage! Also, get rid of your little plans as soon as possible. Whatever Ji Wen wants to do in the future is Ji Wen’s business. Don’t interfere recklessly.”

“What do you mean? What do I have planned? Ji Kangde, I’ve been married to you for twenty years. Don’t tell me that you think more of Fang Xiaonuan who just got here?” Feng Qi was furious. “What do you mean by getting Lingchen a wife? I think getting Lingchen a wife is a lie. You wanted to trick Fang Xiaonuan into the Ji family so that you can satisfy your own desires!”

“Shut up!” Ji Kangde gritted his teeth. He raised his hand and almost hit Feng Qi in the face. He was so angry that his breathing became heavier. “Don’t let me hear you say something like that again. Otherwise, you know the consequences.”

Looking at Ji Kangde’s back as he left, Feng Qi was crying so hard that she was out of breath. It was all Fang Xiaonuan’s fault. She had just married into the Ji family and she had already caused her to quarrel with her husband! Disaster! Slut!

The innocent Fang Xiaonuan, who had just been labeled as a disaster, was dozing off as she accompanied Old Master Ji to wait for Ji Lingchen’s return. However, as she waited, she did not see Ji Lingchen. Instead, she saw a beautiful woman.

......

Fang Xiaonuan looked at Old Master Ji in confusion and tried to ask who she was with her eyes.

Old Master Ji’s expression was unsightly, but the relationship between the Ji family and the Lin family made it impossible for him to turn a blind eye to Lin Rou. He could only say, “Why are you here, Rou’er? Quick, sit down.”

Rou’er? This name sounded a little familiar.

When Lin Rou entered the house, the first thing she saw was Fang Xiaonuan, who was sitting next to Old Master Ji. She had been to the Ji family’s house many times, but she had never seen someone like Fang Xiaonuan here. In that case, she could only be the wife that Ji Lingchen had married yesterday.

Lin Rou endured the pain in her heart and said with a smile, “Uncle, I’m here to meet sister-in-law.”

“Looking for Feng Qi? I’ll get Feng Xiaonuan to help you call her down.” Old Master Ji was a shrewd person. Lin Rou had come to the Ji family’s house many times, but he had never let her go up to the second floor. She was only allowed to move around on the first floor. Most of the Ji family lived on the second floor, so the second floor was considered a private area. Only acknowledged members of the Ji family could go upstairs.

Thus, every time Old Master Ji spoke, he would take a roundabout way to express his stance. Letting Fang Xiaonuan go up to call her meant that Fang Xiaonuan was recognized as a member of the Ji family.

Fang Xiaonuan keenly sensed the atmosphere between Old Master Ji and Lin Rou. She cleverly stood up and said with a smile, “Okay, Dad. Then I’ll go upstairs and ask sister-in-law to come down.”

The way she addressed him made Old Master Ji extremely satisfied. “Go on.”

When Fang Xiaonuan knocked on Feng Qi’s door, Feng Qi’s eyes were still red. Fang Xiaonuan pretended that she did not see that. “Sister-in-law, someone named Rou’er is downstairs waiting for you.”

Hearing that Lin Rou had come, Feng Qi’s eyes lit up. When she saw Fang Xiaonuan’s calm expression, a trace of resentment flashed through her eyes. She deliberately said, “Is that so? Rou’er should be looking for Lingchen, right? The two of them were... Hey, look, why am I talking about this? Lingchen is already married. Let bygones be bygones.”

‘What did she mean by...’

Fang Xiaonuan pondered for a moment. She did not care that Lin Rou and Ji Lingchen were having an affair, but Feng Qi clearly said this to annoy her. She could not let her get what she wanted. Thinking of this, Fang Xiaonuan smiled and nodded. “That’s right. If the relationship didn’t work out, I guess they weren’t meant to be. There’s no other way to say it.”

Feng Qi choked. With an unfriendly expression, she walked past Fang Xiaonuan and went downstairs. She deliberately raised her voice and said to Lin Rou, “Rou’er, you’re here to see Lingchen, right? Unfortunately, he didn’t come home last night.”

Lin Rou’s gaze turned from Fang Xiaonuan to Feng Qi. She stood up and said, “Sister-in-law, I’m not here to look for Lingchen, and...” She paused for a moment before speaking again. She pretended to be embarrassed and lowered her head. “I know Lingchen isn’t home. We were at Spirit Creek Villa last night.”
