Shen Hanxing saw all their sneaky movements, and the corners of her lips could not help but curl up. When she turned her head, she met a pair of dark eyes looking at her without moving, as if expecting something.

Shen Hanxing hesitated for a moment and asked, “Mr. Ji, what’s wrong?”

Ji Yan’s gaze felt heavy. Seeing that she had no intention of giving him anything, he looked away and said, “Nothing. Madam worked hard. Sit down and eat.”

This was the second dinner that the Ji family gathered together for. The atmosphere was much more relaxed than yesterday.

After the meal, Shen Hanxing went back to her room to read the book that she bought on the way back. Not long after, there was a knock on the door.

“Madam.”

Outside the door, Auntie Chen lowered her voice and said, “There’s a call for you. It’s Wei Yong, CEO of the Wei Corporation.”

Wei Yong?

Wei Ling’s older brother took control of the Wei Corporation at a young age, so he was a popular figure.

Shen Hanxing was deep in thought as she took the phone. “Mr. Wei.”

Wei Yong heard the clear and cold voice coming from the other end of the phone. He pressed the tip of his tongue against his upper jaw and smiled. “Mrs. Ji, I heard that you beat up my younger brother?”

Was he accusing her since she did beat up his younger brother?

When Ji Yang heard the news, he went downstairs with a worried look on his face. He subconsciously wanted to reach out and grab the phone from her. He was not so pathetic that he needed a woman to take responsibility for his actions.

He knew Wei Yong well. Wei Yong had been in the business world for many years and was a ruthless person. His sister-in-law was a young lady from a poor area who did not know much about the world. How could she deal with such a person?

Shen Hanxing dodged Ji Yang’s outreached hand and smiled. “Mr. Wei, what you said is not quite right. It’s normal for children to be insensible and quarrel with each other. As their senior, it’s also normal for me to teach them a lesson.”

“Oh?”

Wei Yong was a little surprised. “Then, according to Mrs. Ji, we should just let this matter go?”

“It wasn’t a big deal in the first place.”

Shen Hanxing smiled and said, “I don’t know which gossiper brought this matter to you and even made you misunderstand the situation to the point that you had to call to inquire...However, I think that since you can reach the position you’re sitting at, you’re not dumb, so how do you want to resolve this matter? This can be a big issue or a small one.”

Wei Yong’s eyes darkened. “If you put it that way, it seems that I’m the one being unreasonable.”

Ji Yan was crippled. Although the Ji Corporation still stood firm under his leadership, it still gave others a chance to take advantage. Wei Yong’s call could be perceived as a signal.

Shen Hanxing was about to speak when a faint wooden fragrance brushed past the tip of her nose. Then, someone took the phone away from her.

Ji Yan’s well-defined hand held the phone and his deep voice sounded cold. “If President Wei is unsatisfied with how my wife handled the situation, you can come over and resolve the issue with me. There’s no need to trouble my wife.”

Wei Yong stayed quiet.

Fine, it was unfair of him to seek out Shen Hanxin, who just married into the Ji family. However, he did not take advantage of Mrs. Ji, did he?

Ji Yan did not care what he was thinking and said, “If anything happens in the future, you can come to me directly. I will be waiting.”

He threw away the phone and raised his dark eyelashes as he said calmly to her, “If something like this happens again in the future, just come get me. You don’t have to shoulder it yourself.”

Shen Hanxing, “?”

Was he trying to protect her?

This was the first time someone told her that she did not have to shoulder burdens by herself. This feeling of being protected was very novel to her. Shen Hanxing’s gaze lingered on his face. It wasn’t until Ji Yan could not take it anymore and lowered his eyes did she finally smiled brightly. “Okay.”

Her voice was sweet and soft. It was not cold like it did when she answered the phone. Wei Yong felt his teeth ache when he heard her voice.

Glancing at the phone that was still connected to the call, Shen Hanxing picked up the phone again, “President Wei, my husband said that you are welcome to visit any time. Goodbye.”

Hearing the busy tone coming from the phone, Wei Yong was stunned for a moment. His gaze turned to his brother who was curled up on the sofa. “Did Mrs. Ji really grow up in a poor area overseas?”

The poor neighborhoods overseas were much more chaotic than here. Gunshots, fights, and kidnappings were common over there. The people who grew up there were cowardly and usually afraid to be involved in issues in fear that they might die.

But what was going on with Mrs. Ji? She was so calm and rational even when someone came looking for trouble. He couldn’t even refute anything that she said.

Seeing that even his big brother couldn’t handle Shen Hanxing, Wei Ling felt a strange sense of satisfaction. Perhaps it was because he was not the only one who was unlucky enough to deal with her. He muttered, “I already told you not to seek her out. I didn’t say anything even when she beat me up, yet you still wanted to try your luck...”
