"You shaless woman, what nonsense are you spouting!" Uncle Zhao couldn’t take it anymore and reprimanded harshly.
"Shut up, old man! You’re just a servant, who are you to scold here?" Tang Yi glared viciously at Uncle Zhao.
Since she was cornered, Tang Yi decided to spit out all the venomous words: "Ji Wei, you and your mother owe Yunli too much! Because of your mother, the Ji Family almost faced utter annihilation years ago!"
"You knew nothing, did you? You’ve always lived in the greenhouse that Yunli created for you—no worries, no cares, pampered and spoiled, living like a princess. That’s because Yunli has been carrying all the pain for you!"
"Shut up!" A sudden loud roar startled everyone into turning their heads.
Ji Yunli, awake without anyone noticing, stood at the doorway with bloodshot eyes and a terrifyingly dark expression.
"Yunli!" Seeing Ji Yunli, Tang Yi looked as if she’d seen her savior. "I’m not wrong, you’ve been hiding this for ten years. Sooner or later, the truth had to co out—"
Smack!
The sound of a loud slap rang out abruptly. Tang Yi clutched her swollen, reddened cheek in disbelief, staring at the hand Ji Yunli had yet to lower. Tears welled up in her eyes. "You hit ... You actually hit ? Yunli, I’ve been so good to you. Why would you hit ?"
"I told you to shut up; you just wouldn’t listen!" Ji Yunli glared at her with a gloomy expression.
Tang Yi continued to act pitiful, wiping her tears and pointing at Ji Wei in accusation: "Yunli, they’re the ones targeting for no reason. Little Wei even wants to lock up! I was pushed to my limit, that’s why I said those things. It wasn’t intentional..."
Ji Yunli, his face cold, didn’t want to listen to Tang Yi’s whining any longer. He walked over to stand in front of Ji Wei. "Little Wei..."
The way he called her sounded hoarse and broken.
Ji Wei shoved her phone into Ji Yunli’s hand. "I didn’t falsely accuse your female secretary. She tried to seduce you. There’s a video in here; you can see for yourself."
Ji Wei’s voice was detached and unemotional, like she was rely completing a routine clarification.
Without sparing Ji Yunli a glance, she turned and left after speaking.
Ji Yunli wanted to go after her, but Tang Yi threw herself onto him, clutching his arm and refusing to let go. "Yunli, the video is a misunderstanding. I just leaned closer because you were drunk and groaning uncomfortably, wanting to ask if you needed help. I wore your shirt because you threw up on when you were drunk and ruined my clothes. I had nothing else to change into—"
Ji Yunli watched Ji Wei walk farther and farther away, his heart burning with panic. No matter how much he struggled, Tang Yi latched onto his arm like her life depended on it.
"Drag her off !" Ji Yunli shouted.
The stunned servants quickly rushed over to help. By the ti Ji Yunli hurriedly chased after Ji Wei, all he could see was the taillights of Ji Wei’s Ferrari disappearing beyond the villa gates, swallowed by the night.
Completely losing his composure, Ji Yunli stood dazed in the courtyard. The cold air sobered him up slightly, but he was at a loss for what to do. Just as panic gripped his heart, the phone in his hand suddenly rang.
Seeing Gu Moqian’s na on the screen, Ji Yunli swiftly answered the call.
"Weiwei, I’m done on my end. How are things over there? Do you need to co to the Ji Family to stay with you?" Gu Moqian’s gentle voice ca through.
"Weiwei, are you listening?"
...
Ji Yunli was silent for a long ti before he finally managed to squeeze out a few hoarse words: "It’s Ji Yunli."
Gu Moqian was surprised. Why was Ji Wei’s phone being answered by her father, and why did the man’s voice sound so strange...?
He stood up from his office chair involuntarily, a vague sense of unease creeping into his heart.
"Moqian, sothing has happened. Little Wei drove off on her own. It’s so late, I don’t know if she’s returned to Shanshui Manor yet. She didn’t bring her phone with her..."
