After Transmigrating as a Tycoon’s Wife, My Thoughts Are Heard by the Whole Family

Chapter 120

Madam Zong froze, her face instantly turning pale.

Qin Xian was unrelenting, his gaze sharp as he said, "Teacher Ji can live her life however she chooses. Whether it's right or wrong is not for an outsider to judge."

At this, the Board Director's hair stood on end, as he could tell that Qin Xian was truly angry.

"To casually accuse someone of defending a mistress - do you realize how much damage such a statement can do to Teacher Ji's reputation? It seems we'll need to have our lawyers have a serious talk with Madam Zong. I hope by then, Madam Zong will be able to provide concrete evidence to prove that Teacher Ji has indeed defended a mistress."

The final sentence nearly made Madam Zong lose her balance. The Board Director had to steady her.

This wasn't how she had imagined it would go. She thought that by mentioning Ji Fei's defense of a mistress, Mr. Qin would at least inquire about the situation and reprimand Ji Fei. She never expected Mr. Qin to react this way.

Moreover, the way the couple spoke was so similar - Ji Fei had also just asked her for evidence that Yu Rouyin was a mistress.

From a distance, "Wow, it's the first time I've heard Second Brother say so much to put someone down," Qin Rong exclaimed in surprise.

Qin's Mom was stunned for a moment, but then couldn't help but smile.

"What is it?" Qin Rong looked at her mother in confusion.

Qin's Mom said, "I just feel like your Second Brother has changed a bit. Fei Fei could have easily handled the situation and countered on her own. Usually, in these situations, your Second Brother wouldn't interfere. This time... he suddenly lost his cool."

Qin Rong thought for a moment and asked, "Hasn't Second Brother always protected Second Sister-in-law?"

Qin's Mom smiled and said no more. Qin Xian would protect his wife out of a sense of duty, but not like this. He had never reacted so quickly before, immediately countering and delivering a fatal blow, not giving the other party any chance to go after Ji Fei again.

That kind of protection came from the heart, a reflexive action that had nothing to do with duty.

Not just them, even the Special Assistant who was always by Mr. Qin's side was somewhat surprised.

After Mr. Qin had spoken so firmly, anyone who still dared to argue back would either be crazy or stupid.

Even though Madam Zong felt wronged and unwilling, she had to recognize the situation. In the end, the Board Director accompanied her in sincerely apologizing for their inappropriate words.

But Qin Xian still didn't give them a pleasant expression. He said directly, "If there are any similar rumors spread in the future that affect Teacher Ji, we will pursue this to the end."

With that said, there was no need for further discussion. Qin Xian turned to Ji Fei and asked in a low voice, "Shall we go?"

Ji Fei was staring at him intently, her clear eyes reflecting Qin Xian's image.

Qin Xian was puzzled, then he heard Ji Fei's inner voice roaring.

[Damn, he got me! Those CEO lines were so smooth, he's kind of cool!]

The remnants of frost on Qin Xian's face instantly melted, his cheeks suddenly burning hot.

What had been a perfectly normal situation became embarrassing with Ji Fei's mental commentary.

As expected, when it came to ruining the mood, Ji Fei was a professional.

Qin Xian lightly patted Ji Fei's shoulder, and she finally stood up.

Qin Xian asked his Special Assistant to help carry the gifts of apology they had received. After all, it was Ji Fei's unexpected windfall, and they couldn't leave it behind.

They left behind the others who were still frozen in place, not daring to move after being intimidated by Qin Xian's aura.

As they neared the door, Qin Xian stopped and addressed a nearby private booth, "Mom, Little Sister."

Qin's Mom and Qin Rong had thought Qin Xian hadn't noticed them.

The two awkwardly removed their sunglasses and greeted him.

Ji Fei, on the other hand, was quite surprised, clearly unaware that they had been there.

This revelation shocked the others even more. The Ladies' Club members had no idea when the CEO's mother and sister had arrived, but they must have come earlier than Qin Xian and definitely heard their unkind words about Ji Fei.

This was like being caught red-handed, which was even more unsettling than hearsay.

However, since they hadn't stood up to defend Ji Fei earlier, did that mean the relationship between mother-in-law, sister-in-law, and daughter-in-law wasn't good? Perhaps they wouldn't remember how the ladies had been unkind to Ji Fei...

Just as they were feeling uneasy, they saw Qin's Mom and Qin Rong leave their private booth and excitedly run forward. Qin Xian automatically made way, and Qin's Mom and Qin Rong intimately linked arms with Ji Fei, one on each side.

"When did you arrive? Why didn't you call me?"

"We came just in time to see quite a show. We were very curious about who could have such influence to order our Fei Fei around."

"Second Sister-in-law, Second Sister-in-law, we were about to make a grand entrance, but Second Brother interrupted us."

"What? You were planning to steal the show too?"

The three women chatted and laughed non-stop, while CEO Qin Xian obediently helped them open doors and led the way.

The people left in the lounge naturally had ashen faces, only praying that the gifts they had given were substantial enough to appease the other party.

The Board Director didn't give Madam Zong any face, directly sending her away.

The other four ladies left in embarrassment as well. When they reached the main entrance, they couldn't help but blame Madam Zong.

"Enough, this was just an accident. Even if they want revenge, I'll take the brunt of it for you. What's the point of arguing now? Don't you want to boycott Yu Rouyin anymore?"

"Then what do you suggest? Your plan obviously won't work now, and we don't dare to provoke them again."

A fierce look flashed in Madam Zong's eyes. "We don't need them. I can still make that vixen suffer the netizens' scorn."

Meanwhile, Pei Mingxuan, who had just taken over Ji Fei's related work, received an unexpected phone call. She raised an eyebrow in surprise.

"Teacher Yu, are you asking for my help? You want to join our studio? The conditions you're offering... you'd be at a big disadvantage, you know."

On the other side, Ji Fei and the others returned to the CEO's Office together. It was almost time to get off work, so they just needed to wait for Qin Xian to finish up some work before they could go home together.

So the three women sat on the long sofa in the office, enthusiastically discussing the recent gossip while unwrapping the apology gifts.

Although the Qin family members were not short of money, they found an unexpected joy in this and were very excited.

Qin Xian went to his desk and sat down. As soon as he touched the mouse, the computer screen lit up.

His eyes swept over it, then fixed on it, before looking towards Ji Fei, who was holding jewelry and playing a guessing game about its price with Qin's Mom and Qin Rong.

"Ji Fei, come here," Qin Xian said calmly.

Ji Fei thought he needed her help and bounced over happily.

"What is it?"

Qin Xian pointed at the screen.

Ji Fei turned her head, and her smile froze.

[Crap, I completely forgot about that.]

The corners of Qin Xian's mouth twitched, his eyes dimming slightly. "Reply to it."

Ji Fei put on a completely confused expression. "Huh?"

[He wants me to reply? Reply to what? Doesn't he know this email is from his ex? He should, right? The time and address make it pretty obvious.]

Qin's Mom and Qin Rong, who were unwrapping gifts: !!!!!

What's going on? Ex? Email?

The Qin family truly didn't know much about Yu Zhi. They only knew that their son had been in a relationship during university, but Qin Xian had never brought this girlfriend home. They had rarely even heard her name from Qin Xian's mouth, and they had never seen him act strangely or lose his head over love. Her presence seemed about the same as his other university friends.

They had always been at ease about Qin Xian, so they hadn't paid much attention to his love life. By the time they heard about it again, the relationship had already ended. Qin Xian didn't seem upset at all, which left them with no way to comfort him. And so it ended in a blur.

Recently, they had heard it was because of something to do with Secretary Jin.

In any case, the other party should know that Qin Xian was married now, yet still sent him an email. And Ji Fei had seen it. This could potentially cause trouble in their marriage.

The little progress Qin Xian had squeezed out after injuring his hand couldn't be destroyed!

The two instantly froze, sneaking glances while straining their ears to listen.

Ji Fei felt that this scene had a bit of a dramatic confrontation feel to it. She wasn't sure how she should react.

Swallowing hard, she cautiously said, "Okay, you tell me what to say, and I'll help you reply."

Qin Xian glanced at Ji Fei. "It's not about helping me reply. You should reply yourself."

Ji Fei's pupils shook.

[The drama has landed on my own head? What kind of game is this? My CPU is about to burn out because of you. She's asking to meet you in half a month, how am I supposed to reply to that?!]

"Reply... what?"

But Qin Xian's gaze was intense as he said, "Didn't you guess who sent the email? As my wife, don't you know what you should reply?"
