Madam Ji instructed the driver to send Tang Yingxue off. Before Tang Yingxue got into the car, she cried out for quite a while before reluctantly leaving.

“Are you satisfied now?” Madam Ji was full of resentment. She completely ignored the fact that she had caused this situation herself. Although she said this to Ji Jingchen, her eyes never left Du Jiuyuan.

Du Jiuyuan felt completely innocent and didn’t say anything.

‘You guys are the ones who paid people to do bad things. Ji Jingchen is the one who chased them away. What does it have to do with me?’ Du Jiuyuan thought to herself.

Ji Jingchen’s destructive aura didn’t decrease. He said coldly, “You haven’t apologized yet.”

“What did you say?” Madam Ji’s face was full of disbelief.

“Don’t you understand? Apologize to Du Jiuyuan now!” Ji Jingchen repeated.

“Ji Jingchen, are you crazy? What kind of drug did this woman give you? You’re siding with her?” Madam Ji was flustered and exasperated, and her voice almost bellowed out.

It was already bad enough for Ji Jingchen to bring this matter up publicly, but she couldn’t apologize to that little sl*t now!

Du Jiuyuan didn’t expect Ji Jingchen to have this kind of reaction. Madam Ji and Ji Jingchen were different in terms of family status. It would be no surprise if Ji Jingchen shouted at Ji Yanchen. After all, he was younger and was Ji Jingchen’s cousin. However, despite her wrongdoings, Madam Ji was still his stepmother.

The two of them looked at each other tacitly. A strange emotion flashed through Du Jiuyuan’s heart. She instinctively turned her head away and pretended to look at Madam Ji.

Ji Jingchen took out his phone and dialed a number. “Bank President Jiang, this is Ji Jingchen. I’ll have to trouble you to do something for me.”

Madam Ji lost her composure when she heard the name— Bank President Jiang. Her earlier aggressive demeanor was replaced by fear. Du Jiuyuan understood what was going on. She had lived in the Ji family for so many years, so she knew some things.

Madam Ji had a monthly limit on her expenses. She would require Ji Jingchen’s approval to spend her money every month. Bank President Jiang was someone who could stop Madam Ji from using any of her accounts at any time.

“Ji Jingchen, what are you doing?” Madam Ji felt that something was wrong. She was angry and anxious.

“Bank President Jiang, please freeze all the assets under my stepmother’s name, including her bank cards and credit cards.” Ji Jingchen did not answer Madam Ji but continued speaking.

“Ji Jingchen, how dare you? Don’t you trust me? I…” As Madam Ji said this, she raised her hand to slap Ji Jingchen. Du Jiuyuan stood up without thinking and stopped her.

“Who do you think you are?” Madam Ji was furious. She was about to slap Du Jiuyuan as well, but Ji Jingchen pushed her to the ground.

Ji Jingchen hung up the phone and looked at Madam Ji with a gloomy gaze, like a demon who had just returned from hell.

“If you don’t apologize, you’ll spend eternity rotting in the Ji family” As soon as Ji Jingchen finished speaking, he led Du Jiuyuan away. 

Everyone knew that Ji Jingchen would never lie when it comes to matters like this. If he could say it, he would do it.

Madam Ji saw that Ji Jingchen was about to leave with that little sl*t, and her heart steeled itself. Her voice seemed to squeeze out from between her teeth. “I’m sorry!”

Du Jiuyuan didn’t think that Ji Jingchen would force Madam Ji to such an extent. Madam Ji, who had always been arrogant, was able to apologize to her. Regardless of whether the apology was sincere or not, Du Jiuyuan could completely accept it. However, she chose to reply venomously.

“I accept your apology, but I won’t forgive you.” Du Jiuyuan didn’t want Ji Jingchen to continue making things difficult for Madam Ji. She was prepared to end this farce as soon as possible.

‘You could say you’re sorry, but an apology doesn’t necessarily make things any better.’

Madam Ji was afraid that she wouldn’t have any money to spend. Moreover, Tang Yingxue needed money to live wherever she went, so she had no choice but to compromise.

“I’ve wasted your precious working time. Let’s go! I’ll send you to work.” Ji Jingchen’s cold face didn’t show any emotion, but his tone was extremely gentle when he spoke to Du Jiuyuan. It was as if the man who was completely angry earlier wasn’t him.

“Okay.” Du Jiuyuan didn’t want to waste any more time, so she agreed without hesitation.

Ji Jingchen didn’t hold Du Jiuyuan’s hand again. The two of them walked out of the Ji family home one after the other. Du Jiuyuan followed Ji Jingchen into his Rolls-Royce, and Jiang Cheng helped to drive her Maybach to Yuan Hua Studio.

Du Jiuyuan wanted to decline Ji Jingchen’s offer in sending her off because she had driven today. However, Ji Jingchen acted as if he had something important to say to her. In addition, everything Ji Jingchen had done today was very heartwarming, so Du Jiuyuan agreed to go with him..
