“That woman didn’t target you because of what you did to me, but because the Ji family has always been in my control. She couldn’t do anything to harm me, so she went after you instead.” Ji Jingchen had asked the driver to ride with Jiang Cheng. He drove the Rolls Royce himself at a slow pace. He seemed to be immersed in memories when he said this.

To put it bluntly, all the grievances that Du Jiuyuan had endured in the Ji family were a case of someone bullying the weak and fearing the strong.

Du Jiuyuan did not care about these things. After all, all of these were a matter of the past. She asked, “Why did you tolerate her staying in the Ji family for so many years?”

Ji Jingchen’s father had gone missing unexpectedly a few years ago. This was information that everyone knew about, including Du Jiuyuan. Du Jiuyuan was very suspicious of this. Ji Jingchen was a very capable man. If his father had gone missing, how could there be no news about his whereabouts at all? Even the missing person notice had not been published.

Ji Jingchen had always hated Madam Ji, but he had always tolerated her living in the Ji family.

“Keep your friends close, but keep your enemies closer...” Ji Jingchen said and did not elaborate any further for a while.

“My father died of a heart attack,” Eventually, Ji Jingchen calmly revealed this as he parked the car by the roadside.

“Why are you only telling me this now?” She had lived in the Ji family for so many years and had been married to Ji Jingchen for more than five years. She never knew about this. Now that they are divorced, Du Jiuyuan couldn’t understand why Ji Jingchen would reveal this news to her now.

“My father couldn’t get over my late mother and often went to pay respects to her. Madam Ji only became a part of our family because she was pregnant, so my father was forced to give her a title.” Ji Jingchen wanted to light a cigarette at this time, but when he remembered that Du Jiuyuan didn’t like it, so he gave up on that thought.

“What about the child?” Du Jiuyuan asked without hesitation. But the moment the question left her mouth, she regretted it.

“You’re so smart, can’t you guess it?” Ji Jingchen didn’t answer but asked in return. The car was started by Ji Jingchen again, and he resumed driving steadily on the street.

That child was Tang Yingxue, but Ji Jingchen’s father wasn’t her father. No man could accept such shocking news. In addition, Ji Jingchen’s father had long lost hope of living after his late mother died. When he found out about the truth from Madam Ji, he was in a rage and died instantly from a heart attack.

Madam Ji had bribed a few people to put on a show as if Ji Jingchen’s father had mysteriously disappeared. After his body was being cremated, the ashes of Ji Jingchen’s father had been hidden in Madam Ji’s safe. Ji Jingchen had known about this for a long time. He had even quietly retrieved his father’s ashes.

“Aren’t you afraid of Madam Ji quietly seeking revenge against you?” Du Jiuyuan thought for a moment and said.

Ji Jingchen parked the car by the roadside again and looked at Du Jiuyuan, before slowly saying, “Since I have the capability to provide for her financially, I must have a way to deal with her. Besides, I have more important things to do now.”

Ji Jingchen approached Du Jiuyuan. When he spoke, his warm breath hit her earlobe. Du Jiuyuan reached out and pushed him away.

“Just talk. Don’t come so close and don’t touch me!” Du Jiuyuan turned her head away to avoid looking directly at him.

She had to stay away from Ji Jingchen. Otherwise, she might just fall into his ‘trap’ again.

“Besides you, I have nothing to lose.” Ji Jingchen looked at her, his voice low with a hint of loneliness.

What was love? Ji Jingchen finally knew the answer to this question. At the very least, he knew that he loved Du Jiuyuan. This time, he only wanted to live for himself once.

Even though Ji Jingchen drove very slowly, they eventually arrived at the studio. Jiang Cheng had arrived long ago.

“Thank you.” Du Jiuyuan thanked him from the bottom of her heart.

No matter what happened, Madam Ji’s apology earlier had made Du Jiuyuan’s heart completely relieved. The past was like fleeting clouds and it would be best for her to let go of grudges. Du Jiuyuan got out of the car and retrieved her car keys from Jiang Cheng. She entered the studio building under Ji Jingchen’s silent gaze.

Luoluo and He Lili had been waiting for Du Jiuyuan for a while. Luoluo had to attend a show at the last minute today. She came over early in the morning without informing anyone, but Du Jiuyuan had not arrived.

Luoluo was going to record a variety show this afternoon. Du Jiuyuan thought that the variety show might have a sports segment, so she chose a suit that was convenient for Luoluo to move around in.

Luoluo’s hair was combed into a simple ponytail, which made her look younger and cuter.. Her makeup was also extremely waterproof so that even if she sweated a lot, there would be no blemishes.
