It had been over a week since Ji Mu Feng slammed the door and left the house. Ji Ru Xue hadn't seen him for a long time, so Ji Ru Xue didn't go to the Ji family now.
"Come to Grandmother's place." Jiang Ning squatted down and watched the small grapes run around the room.
Yes, in order to prevent Ji Ru Xue and her child from leaving, Ji Mufeng showed the proof of his kinship with Little Grape and brought back his nationality. He also had an official Chinese name — Ji Jia Jing.
However, Ji Ru Xue didn't care about any of this. As long as she could meet her own son, she was willing to give anything and play along with Ji Mufeng, letting him think that his parents still loved each other dearly.
Ji Ruxue knew that without her parents' feelings, she absolutely did not want her children to be like her, lonely and helpless during the new year in their childhood.
His sweaty hair was plastered to his face, and his little face was flushed. Ji Ruxue picked him up and walked towards the bathroom. "Little Grape, Mom will take you to take a bath, okay?"
The little grape was wriggling in Ji Ruxue's arms. Ji Ruxue was almost unable to hug it. It smiled and wiped the sweat off its face on Ji Ruxue's body. "Mommy, Mommy will wash up together with you."
Jiang Ning's heart was filled with disdain when she saw how intimate Little Grape and Ji Ruxue were. Wasn't she just a woman who wanted to rely on her child for support? What kind of motherly love was that?
Seeing Qin Xue walk over, Jiang Ning Xi pretended to be ignorant again. She beckoned her to sit beside her. "Come, Qin Xue, come and sit by mother's side. The nanny has already taken the child to bathe. Let's have a nice chat."
Qin Xue looked at Ji Ruxue and then looked at Jiang Ning. She was at a loss as to what to do. However, when she thought of what she had said previously, everything had to go according to Lady Jiang's plan.
Jiang Ningshui, of course, saw this kind of expression in Qin Xue's eyes. He was very satisfied with Qin Xue's petty attitude and thought to himself that it would be best if she could find something better to say to Qin Xue.
Ji Ruxue had long heard Jiang Ning's words. She reached out her hand to cover Little Grape's ears. Even if Ji Mufeng and she tried their best to maintain harmony on the surface, with Jiang Ning's help, who knew how long they could last?
It was only about three or four in the afternoon when Ji Ru Xue left the Ji family residence. She didn't want to go home either.
Thinking that the little grapes have been growing very fast lately, and that there should be a lot of clothes to wear, he decided to take a walk around the shopping mall to pass the time.
Ji Ruxue picked out a lot of things. As she was picking things out from the shelves, she heard whispers behind her, "It's really her? But doesn't a mistress have someone to take care of her? Why are you here personally? "
The other person seemed to intentionally let Ji Ru Xue hear him. With an exaggerated tone, he said, "You probably don't understand. Our son is something that she is attached to. Of course he has to take care of himself."
Ji Ru Xue turned her head to look at them. They were two young girls with delicate makeup. It was unknown where they got such malicious intent. When they saw Ji Ru Xue turn around, they even arrogantly and provocatively looked at her.
Ji Ru Xue naturally wouldn't do anything in such a public place. Currently, she was at the heart of the struggle. Even if there was any trouble, it would only be left for others to talk about.
Seeing that Ji Ruxue did not go up to argue with them and only paid the bill before leaving, she quickly restrained her expression and spoke into the headset, "Ji Ruxue did not take the bait." The person on the other side coldly snorted, "You sure are alert, but the previous photo is enough."
Ji Ruxue worked all night long before she finally handed over the documents. Just as she was about to take a break, she received a message from her phone.
It was her little sister who was in the same department as her. "Sister Xue, I wonder if you've read the news yet. The media is reporting on you now."
This wasn't the first time something like this had happened. Ji Ru Xue didn't want to look and just let them talk about it, so she replied, "It's fine. It doesn't matter how they write about me anymore."
Soon, she received a reply. After reading it, she dropped her phone to the ground. Ji Ru Xue was stunned for a moment before she grabbed her jacket and prepared to leave.
Winter mornings were always dawn very slowly, the lights in the house weren't turned on, and the phone's screen said, "Of course I know Sister Xue won't care about these things …" But … "It's just that I don't think it's good for them to put up a picture of the child …"
This time, Ji Ruxue was truly angry. She could be indifferent when anyone tried to hurt her, but she could not hurt her child. This was her bottom line; she could give it a try if she didn't believe it.
On the way, Ji Ruxue took a look at how the media was reporting on them.
"The lover of the Ji Family's CEO is actually the third person that stepped in between him and Miss Feng?"
"Will Ji Ruxue be able to successfully marry into the Ji Clan through her child?!"
Ji Ru Xue thought that this was something that Jiang Ning had learned to do. No matter what, Xiao Wen was her own grandson, so how could she be so ruthless as to hurt an innocent child?
When they arrived at the Ji Clan, they found that Ji Mufeng had returned as well. The small grapes were taken away to the garden to play, leaving behind Ji Mufeng, Ji Ruxue, and Jiang Ning, because this was after all, the family's business. Gu Youyang did not come, but instead contacted the PR Department to remove the news and prosecute the media.
This definitely didn't happen by chance. If it wasn't for someone pushing it from behind, there definitely wouldn't have been a media outcry.
Ji Ru Xue had a ponytail on her head, her face was covered in makeup, and she had an agile expression. Ji Mu Feng knew that she was worried about her child, so he said directly, "This matter happened suddenly, I will investigate the mastermind."
Ji Mufeng reached out and patted the back of Ji Ruxue's hand. Of course, Ji Ruxue knew that she could not force him at this time. After all, in Ji Mufeng's heart, their positions were already not equal, right?
Thus, Ji Ru Xue relaxed her shoulders and looked at Ji Mu Feng with a wronged expression. She said with a feminine tone, "Mu Feng, you are also the one who loves Little Grape the most aren't you?"
Saying so, he directed his gaze towards Jiang Ning Zhi, implying, "I just don't know who could be so ruthless as to hurt him. I guess he doesn't like me and wants to vent his anger on his child."
Ji Mufeng still couldn't figure out who Ji Ruxue was talking about, but Jiang Ning had spread the word, "Who is it? Who wants to hurt my grandson? I … I'm going to fight him to the death! "
This time, it was as if the pot had exploded. Ji Ruxue also stood up, but the gentleness was no longer present on her face as she sternly said, "What are you pretending for!? Weren't you the one who did it?! "
These words made Jiang Ning become even more agitated as she stomped her feet like a child, "I'm not … I'm not … I'm not … I'm not …" Ji Mufeng called Qin Xue over to take Jiang Ning Zhi to the bedroom to pacify her.
Ji Mufeng was also dissatisfied, "What are you doing? "I already said that I will investigate the masterminds behind this, and once you arrived, it will be a complete mess. How am I supposed to communicate with you?"
I haven't seen her for a long time, I didn't expect that the two of them would start a quarrel the moment they met. Ji Ruxue looked at Ji Mufeng, but there was no warmth in his eyes. "Don't you really worry about your children?"
Ji Mufeng picked up the cup and threw it onto the ground. Initially, he only wanted to calm Ji Ru Xue down, but the flying fragments cut her wrist. His pupils contracted slightly and he subconsciously wanted to check Ji Ru Xue's wound.
Ji Mufeng was awake when he saw the wound slowly heal. He was unwilling to lower his head in front of Ji Ruxue first. "Even if my mother disagrees with you, don't you understand how she treats the Ji family?"
Then he said, "You've really changed. You were so kind to everyone before, but now you're so mean. You don't look like someone I love at all."
These words made Ji Ruxue laugh out of anger. Ji Ruxue smiled bitterly and said, "If I were still like before, I would have been killed by others a long time ago. I wouldn't have given birth to this child."
Then he stared straight into Ji Mufeng's eyes, and said word by word, "Besides, wasn't it you who turned me into this, and sent me to train for your own benefits? And didn't my first baby only give Feng Qingyun an opportunity because you were soft-hearted? "
This incident had always been a result of both of their injuries. They were hidden by a tacit understanding. However, Ji Ruxue had been caught off guard and ripped off her disguise as a peaceful person, revealing the sinister wounds that were still dripping with blood.
Ji Mufeng thought of that little kid, curled up on his palm and looking out the window. That kid was riding a small car downstairs, if he could grow up, he would be like a big brother, with two kids growing up together.
Ji Ruxue also followed Ji Mufeng's gaze and said, "I will not let anyone who is suspected of harming my child escape my sight. Just think that I'm crazy."
Under Qin Xue's comforting words, Jiang Ning Xi gradually calmed down, carefully listening to the sounds outside. When she heard the sounds of the cups being smashed in the room next door, she smiled slightly.
Even if no one was paying attention to her now, they would still have to put on a show to complete the whole plan. Little did they know that Qin Xue, who had her back to her, had already sent her back back to the headquarters, along with a conclusion — Jiang Ning learned to pretend to be crazy, while Ji Ji and Ji's feelings had broken down completely.
