“I don’t have to. In the end, you are my legitimate wife. I have to protect you, but you have to know the whole story.” Ji Lingchen said patiently, and handed the phone to Fang Xiaonuan.

Fang Xiaonuan took Ji Lingchen’s phone, took a deep breath, and pressed the play button.

...

Feng Qi left the Ji family’s house, crying. As soon as she walked out the door, she stopped and turned around. She did not see her husband chasing after her, which made her even angrier. It was all Fang Xiaonuan’s fault! If it were not for her, she would not have been scolded by her father-in-law, and would not have ended up being chased out of the family.

She unlocked her phone and saw Lin Rou’s note. Feng Qi thought of the relationship between Lin Rou and Ji Lingchen, and her eyes lit up. Soon, she made up her mind. Since Fang Xiaonuan was giving her a hard time, she definitely would not let Fang Xiaonuan have it easy!

Not long after, Lin Rou drove over to pick up Feng Qi. The moment she saw Feng Qi, Lin Rou was a little surprised. “Sister-in-law, what happened to you? Were you bullied by that scheming woman, Fang Xiaonuan?”

Her words sounded casual, but Lin Rou knew that they were like thorns deeply embedding themselves in Feng Qi’s heart.

In the Ji family’s residence, Fang Xiaonuan watched all the videos of her parents’ discussion with Feng Qi. Then, she returned the phone to Ji Lingchen.?“Although she didn’t go as far as she said, I can’t forget her distaste and disgust. I don’t regret fighting with her. I think I did the right thing.”

Ji Lingchen said, “I’m not saying that you did the wrong thing. It’s only right and proper to protect your parents under these circumstances, but you have to understand...”

Before Ji Lingchen could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Fang Xiaonuan. “There are no buts. I’ll hit anyone who mistreats my family. If you mistreat my family, I won’t let you off either.”

“Pfft, hahaha...” Hearing Fang Xiaonuan’s words, Ji Lingchen immediately laughed out loud. “Just you? You really have a big mouth.”

Fang Xiaonuan said very seriously, “I’m not messing with you. My family is the line you can’t cross with me.”

Ji Lingchen said, “My company’s capital makes tens of millions every minute. How free do you think I have to be to mess with your family?”

......

Fang Xiaonuan said, “This is a kind reminder. Don’t blame me for saying that I don’t care about our relationship if I hit you in the future.” Her words made Ji Lingchen feel happy. He was a grown man, yet he was being kindly reminded by his petite wife...that he might be beaten up in the future.

It was interesting just thinking about it.

Fang Xiaonuan was no longer so angry. It was probably because she had watched the video and knew that her parents had not suffered much.

“Nuannuan, why do you have two faces?” Ji Lingchen could not help but ask. She had a sharp tongue and refused to accept any grievances. She even dared to quarrel with Old Master Ji and fight with Feng Qi. However, when she called her parents just now, she was like a typical girl next door who spoke softly.

She could speak gently and smile sincerely. She could also lie without blushing. Her small mouth was so venomous that you could not resist it.

At this moment, Ji Lingchen did not realize that he had unknowingly developed a strong interest in Fang Xiaonuan.

Fang Xiaonuan answered him. “One is for our own people, and the other is for strangers. Isn’t everyone like this? Aren’t you the same?”

He had never been patient with the wife that was forced upon him. He even watched her get bullied and mistreated. However, towards Lin Rou, he was affectionate, gentle, and meticulous.

At this moment, Fang Xiaonuan did not realize that she was already beginning to feel sour about that.

Ji Lingchen mistakenly thought that Fang Xiaonuan was talking about the difference in how he treated businessmen and how he treated family, so he smiled and nodded, replying, “That’s right.”

Fang Xiaonuan rolled her eyes internally, but she only dared to retort in her heart. ‘Marrying someone else when you love someone else. Scumbag!’

That night, Feng Qi did not return to the Ji family’s home. Ji Kangde went to her mother’s house to search for her, but to no avail. He got someone to investigate and easily found out that she was at the Lin family’s home.

Ji Kangde had no choice but to go to the Lin family’s home. Director Lin welcomed his arrival very much. Director Lin had invited Ji Kangde over many times and wanted to sit down with him for a meal, but he never gave him the time of day. Today, his daughter brought home the mayor’s wife. He had to seize this opportunity.

“Mayor Ji, please come in.” Director Lin invited him into the room.

In Lin Rou’s bedroom, Feng Qi was complaining about her experiences in the Ji family. Lin Rou was mocking her in her heart, but she did not show it on her face. She held Feng Qi’s hand. “This Fang Xiaonuan is going too far!” she said.
