“It seems like you’ve misunderstood,” Ran Tengxiao said.
“I don’t care about any misunderstanding, you’re still Ran Bowen’s nephew and that’s all that matters. When I find Ran Bowen’s illegitimate son and kill him, I’ll come for you.”
With those words, he jumped onto the wall and disappeared into the darkness.
Ye Jian instinctively wanted to chase after him, but Ran Tengxiao said: “Don’t bother.”
At this moment, a man walked out from behind Ran Tengxiao. He was about 1.75 meters tall, very thin, with a square face and restrained eyes, hiding intelligence.
“Ji Chang has a son who was sent abroad when he was young. If you count the years, he should be about this age now.”
Ran Tengxiao looked at the man, “Is he Ji Chang’s son?”
Lin Feng furrowed his brows, “This young man’s every word is meant to guide us. If he’s not really a young man with a young man’s temperament, then his actions are too terrifying for someone his age. If he’s Ji Chang’s son, his appearance must be for revenge for Ji Chang. As for the secret of Master Wen’s illegitimate son, as Ji Chang’s confidant, it’s impossible for him not to know the secret. It all makes sense.”
“Ji Chang’s son?” Ran Tengxiao rubbed his chin and suddenly laughed.
“Interesting.”
“But we shouldn’t be careless. Yu Jiang serves as a lesson. Master, please have someone go abroad to investigate, just in case.”
Ran Tengxiao nodded, “If he’s really Ji Chang’s son, we can use him.”
Ming Jing got out of the car and slowly walked towards the living room.
Just as she entered the living room, suddenly, the lights came on.
Zhu Shaodan walked over with crossed arms, looking Ming Jing up and down. “Look at the time! A girl like you coming home so late, is this appropriate?”
Ming Jing found that some people looked like humans but couldn’t understand human language, like Zhu Shaodan in front of her.
“So what?” Ming Jing replied indifferently.
Zhu Shaodan sneered, “There’s a curfew in the Zhus, if you don’t return before eight o’clock, go ahead and sleep at the doorstep.”
Ming Jing glanced at him, her calm gaze making Zhu Shaodan feel a bit uneasy. To cover up his feelings, he puffed out his chest and raised his head, “What are you looking at? If you keep looking, I’ll gouge your eyeballs out.”
Ming Jing said calmly, “Since you dislike me and I dislike you, let’s just ignore each other. But you insist on appearing in front of me, so either you deserve a beating or you want to get my attention. You can choose.”
Zhu Shaodan incredulously said, “Trying to get your attention? What gives you such confidence?”
“Then stop looking for attention in front of me.” With that, she didn’t look at him again and went upstairs.
Zhu Shaodan pointed at her retreating figure, angrily going in circles, “Saying
I’m trying to get her attention? What a joke!”
Madam Zhou laughed beside him, “Young Master, I think Miss has a point. She doesn’t pay attention to you, and it’s always you who initiates arguments. From an outsider’s perspective, isn’t it just because you want to catch her attention? If a person dislikes another person, they absolutely don’t want to say a word to them, let alone see them. What’s more, how can you stay up late and wait by
tne door Just to say a tew angry words( Don’t you tn1nR(”
Zhu Shaodan stomped his feet, ‘What do you know? I will absolutely never like her, just you wait and see, humph.”
Madam Zhou watched the young man’s retreating figure as if he was running away, shaking her head with a smile, “Such a childish mentality.”
“Sis, that woman actually said I deliberately tried to get her attention. That’s outrageous!”
Zhu Shaodan suddenly burst in, making Zhu Xiangxiang hurriedly hide her phone. She frowned at him, “Why didn’t you knock?”
Zhu Shaodan scratched his head, “Oh, I forgot. Anyway, what secrets do we siblings have between us? Are you doing something bad behind my back?”
Zhu Xiangxiang’s eyes flitted nervously and she quickly looked away, “What nonsense are you talking about? We’re adults, there should be a clear distinction between men and women, not to mention we don’t have blood relation.’
“So you don’t think of me as your brother anymore?” Zhu Shaodan said unhappily.
Zhu Xiangxiang hesitated, pursed her lips, “That’s not what I meant.”
“Then that’s good.”
Zhu Shaodan rolled his eyes and tugged on Zhu Xiangxiang’s sleeve, “Sis, my buddy’s having a birthday next week. As his good brother, I have to give him a birthday present, but I don’t even have money for food now. Can you lend me some money? When I have money and leave, I’ll repay you.”
“No, I promised Mom that I won’t give you a penny.”
“As long as we don’t let mom know, we can do this secretly. I promise not to let a third person find out.” Zhu Shaodan raised his hand to swear an oath.
Zhu Xiangxiang broke free of his grasp, helplessly saying, “Fine, I’ll give you the money, but remember, never let Mom know.”
“Thank you, sis.”
Zhu Xiangxiang took out her phone, which was on a chat screen. Zhu Shaodan sneaked a glance but Zhu Xiangxiang quickly switched screens and opened WeChat to transfer him money.
Zhu Shaodan curiously asked, “Sis, it’s so late, who are you chatting with?”
Zhu Xiangxiang stiffened and replied indifferently, “A classmate, asking me about a question.”
“A guy or a girl?”
Zhu Xiangxiang glanced at him, “Are you sick?”
“I’m just afraid you’ll be deceived by men. My sister is so beautiful, don’t be fooled by sweet talk. Men are no good, except for Dad and me, of course.” Zhu Shaodan confidently touched his slicked-back oily hair.
Zhu Xiangxiang sneered in her heart, none of the men in the Zhus are good..
