278 Killing the One Who Helped You

Meanwhile, Ji Lingchen had also reached home.

“Hubby, you’re back,” Fang Xiaonuan said.

“Yeah. Didn’t I tell you to go to sleep before I left? Why are you playing with your phone again?”

“Dad insisted that I play with him,” Fang Xiaonuan replied.

“You’re the one who stole my phone,” Old Master Ji said angrily.

“Dad, are you trying to kill the one who helped you?” Fang Xiaonuan started bickering with Old Master Ji.

“You started it,” Old Master Ji said.

Ji Lingchen laughed helplessly. He walked to the living room and pulled his little wife away. “I’m going back to my room to catch up on some sleep!”

“Alright.” Fang Xiaonuan returned the phone to Old Master Ji and even made a face. “Hmph! I’m not going to play with you anymore. I’m going to sleep with my husband. You can play on your own!”

“I don’t need your company either. I’m going to play with my grandson!” Old Master Ji said stubbornly.

“Master, Young Master Ji Wen is still in the hospital!” the butler reminded him.

“Get the car ready,” Old Master Ji said. “I’m going to the hospital to play games with my grandson.”

The butler was speechless.

…

Liu Siyu’s ankle had finally recovered. She had spent the last few days panicking.

That day, she had said that her feet were cold, and Ji Lingchen had said that he wanted to give her a foot warmer. She had thought that he was joking, but he really did. Then, all kinds of supplements and gifts came one after another.

At school, Ji Lingchen came to pick up Fang Xiaonuan, but he offered to take her out for a meal. She rejected him on the spot and ran off to find her brother.

The scariest thing was that Ji Lingchen had returned from a business trip with a gift for Fang Xiaonuan. This was normal, but why did he bring one for her too?

Liu Siyu was so scared that she threw the gift away.

“That diamond you just threw away cost 10 million,” Fang Xiaonuan said calmly.

Liu Siyu quietly picked it up. “Xiaonuan,” she said. “Why did your husband do that?”

“It’s fine. That’s just how he is,” Fang Xiaonuan replied.

Liu Siyu said, “Xiaonuan, you can’t just tolerate him like this. Think about it. He’s so good to me. You and I are like sisters. I can’t accept this. Imagine if he does this for other women. Did you forget that gold diggers exist? Now that Ji Lingchen has slept with you, will he court another woman? This kind of scumbag really deserves to die!”

Liu Siyu stood up for her friend, then stuffed the diamond into Fang Xiaonuan’s hands. “Take this back and throw it at his face. Then, tell him that my relationship with my best friend is as strong as gold and that it’s something he can’t destroy!”

“And you, Fang Xiaonuan, you have to start acting like his wife. If he dares to mess around with other women, let him know that you’ll beat him to death!”

Fang Xiaonuan had been tormented by her husband for the entire night and was completely lethargic. She was sprawled on the table and closed her eyes as she listened to Liu Siyu.

She pushed the diamond back. “Just take it. We’re more than best friends. We’ll be a family sooner or later. My husband is great. He won’t go out and mess around. He’s just very good to you.”

Liu Siyu scoffed. “Why? Is he sick in the head? He should be good to you. Why would he be good to me?”

Fang Xiaonuan forced her eyes open and looked at Liu Siyu, thinking, ‘You’re his sister.’

“Don’t disturb me, I’m sleepy!” she said. Fang Xiaonuan was exhausted by the demands of her marriage, and she was catching up on sleep.

Fang Xiaonuan had a beautiful dream. In the dream, she stepped on Ji Lingchen, then jumped around on his body. She stepped on him until he cried out in pain. It was really too satisfying!

Ji Lingchen had asked Secretary Song to prepare two sets of gifts.

Secretary Song said, “CEO Ji, pardon me for asking, but did you prepare the present for madam and Ms. Liu? Or did you deliberately buy a gift for Ms. Liu and bring one for Madam just to shut her up?”

“What do you mean?”

Secretary Song said, “If it’s the former, I’ll have to advise you, CEO Ji. One gift is very precious. Two gifts are cheaper. If there’s only one present, Madam will be very happy, but if she receives one of the two gifts, Madam’s happiness will be halved.”

“Also, Madam might have misunderstood. She might have thought you were giving her a gift just so she wouldn’t complain.”

“If it’s the latter, that means there’s a problem with your marriage, CEO Ji.”

“Are you trying to say that Xiaonuan isn’t that happy to receive her gift?”

Secretary Song nodded. “All women hope that they are unique in their husbands ‘hearts. No matter who it is, the wife’s position is the most important. Even if Madam knows about Ms. Liu’s identity, she will definitely feel disappointed.”

“I’m telling you now because I understand how you feel. However, in the long run, if this becomes a habit, Madam will feel more and more disappointed. This may become a source of conflict in your marriage, and your relationship will be affected.”
