Old Master Ji felt that the situation was serious. Mayor Ji felt that his son had gone astray, while Feng Qi felt that his son had been led astray by the people around him. Only Ji Lingchen said indifferently, “It’s normal.”
Old Master Ji raised his head to look at him and asked in return, “Is this normal?”
Ji Lingchen had a long-term perspective. He saw things more broadly than everyone present. When the Ji family made decisions, they would usually make decisions based on his opinion. Although he was young, he had experienced no less than them.
What the Ji family valued was not money, but Ji Wen’s education. If this child had gotten into gambling, it would become a big problem if he did not correct it as soon as possible. While everyone was worried about Ji Wen, Ji Lingchen was calm. He thought that all of this spending was reasonable.
Ji Lingchen said casually, “I dared Ji Wen. He definitely won’t dare to indulge in gambling and even owe a loan shark. I took Ji Wen to gamble once. I gave him a billion but he wasn’t interested. Do you think a few tens of millions can satisfy him?”
Everyone was shocked by Ji Lingchen’s words. When did he take Ji Wen to gamble? When did he even gamble?
Actually, this was the result of Ji Lingchen’s effort in educating his nephew. When Ji Wen was in junior high school, he already had his own ideas and he had a new understanding of money. In order to educate his nephew, Ji Lingchen took his nephew with him on a business trip. He brought him to Las Vegas.
That night, Ji Wen was so scared that he had followed behind his uncle the entire time, tightly clutching the corner of his shirt.
Ji Lingchen waved his hand and booked the entire place. When the pile of money was on the table and everything was ready to go, Ji Wen had forcefully pulled his uncle away. That was the first time he was not afraid of his uncle’s righteous lecture. It was clear to him that gambling was not a good behavior.
Later, Ji Lingchen left the casino with his nephew. After that, no matter what, Ji Wen did not care about gambling. He was not interested in it at all.
After Ji Lingchen finished telling the story, the three of them were left shocked. Ji Lingchen stood up and said, “Brother and sister-in-law, the problem of Xiaowen’s education cannot always be my responsibility. I will have my own children in the future. Let’s take care of our own children!” Ji Lingchen left the study room without looking back.
When Old Master Ji heard Ji Lingchen’s words, his glassy eyes seemed to become bright and alert. He looked at his eldest son and daughter-in-law with great joy. “Did he just say… that he will have his own children?”
Feng Qi was somewhat embarrassed to be talking about her brother-in-law’s married life with her husband and father-in-law. “If their marriage goes well, in another two to three months, Fang Xiaonuan should have some good news to share.”
Old Master Ji already had a smile on his face, as if those three months had already passed. He smiled with satisfaction and said, “He is indeed a master. With just one sentence, the prosperity of our family is clear!”
“Dad, what are you saying?” Feng Qi did not quite understand. Old Master Ji smiled and waved his hand, then left the study as well.
When Ji Lingchen returned to the bedroom, he found his nephew in his room. Ji Wen shrugged and squatted on the floor with his hands covering his head, not daring to get up.
Fang Xiaonuan sat angrily on the sofa where she usually slept. When she saw Ji Lingchen return, she pointed at Ji Wen and complained to him, “Ji Lingchen, hurry up and control your nephew. He did all of this on purpose today.”
Ji Lingchen said, “What did you call me just now?”
Fang Xiaonuan replied, “Ji Lingchen!”
Ji Wen, who had his head lowered, muttered softly, “My uncle wants you to call him husband.” As soon as he said that, Fang Xiaonuan hit the back of his head.
She did not care if Ji Lingchen was present. “Shut up. If it wasn’t for you, I would have been far away from here by now!”
Ji Lingchen raised his eyebrows. Who would have thought that he had married a violent wife! She was really merciless when it came to beating people up. As he walked in, Fang Xiaonuan’s little hand reached out for his. “Hubby, he deliberately broke Grandpa’s vase and stole his mother’s things just to stop us from moving.”
Ji Lingchen had guessed his nephew’s intentions early in the morning, but he did not understand why his nephew would not let him leave. He looked at his petite wife who was holding his hand and suddenly understood. This was not because he did not want him to leave. This was because it did not matter if he left or stayed. Fang Xiaonuan had to stay. Thinking of this, Ji Lingchen was a little angry. “Go to my study!”
Ji Wen got up and left the bedroom with his tail between his legs. He felt very wronged. This Fang Xiaonuan really did not know what was good for her. He had risked his life to keep her here, but she did not appreciate it.
