Chapter 38: Chapter 38 I Have No Morals, Don’t Try to Morally Kidnap Me
As these words were spoken, everyone present was stunned.
Only Ji Tian was excitedly shouting in her heart: Well done!
Bai Tingyu narrowed his eyes slightly and sneered, “I think you’re dreaming.”
Qin Jiangsheng looked towards Old Sir Bai, “That night was a Friday. After I got home, it started raining outside. Second Brother Ji made a call to Bai Tingyu, asking him to let me go back home. He agreed, but still, let me get drenched in the rain all night long.”
“The next day, Mr. Bai whipped me five times. The marks are still there. If my status as an illegitimate child is disgraceful, I can leave the Bai Family and go back to where I came from, Grandpa. I am a human being, not a beast.”
Old Sir Bai looked at Qin Jiangsheng, flabbergasted. This was the first time Qin Jiangsheng called him grandpa and the first time he rebelled, feeling he had suffered a lot of injustice. @@novelbin@@
...
Old Sir Bai lived in the ancestral home and usually, no one reported to him. He thought Qin Jiangsheng was living well in the Bai family. It was only yesterday that a subordinate informed him of the situation in the Bai Mansion area, and he rushed over in a hurry.
His gaze shifted to Bai Tingyu, who was the next heir to the Bai Group. As Qin Jiangsheng said, getting on his knees to apologize was impossible, as it would damage his pride. But he didn’t want Qin Jiangsheng to feel disheartened either, so he struck a middle ground, with a commanding presence rather than anger: “Tingyu, apologize to your brother.”
Bai Tingyu and Qin Jiangsheng were born only a few months apart. It could be said that Bai Yan Zhang’s affair during his marriage not only caused Bai Tingyu’s biological mother to die of depression but also condemned Qin Jiangsheng to a fate of abandonment from birth.
Seeing that Bai Tingyu made no move, Old Sir Bai could only exert pressure, “Brothers should support each other, not become enemies like you two. If you don’t apologize, I will transfer ten percent of Bai Group’s shares to Jiangsheng.”
Bai Tingyu’s indifferent expression cracked, his eyes filled with disbelief, “Grandpa!”
“Apologize!”
The voice of Old Sir Bai was cold and firm, insisting that Bai Tingyu apologize to Qin Jiangsheng. Bai Tingyu clenched his teeth awkwardly, but would feel utterly disgusted if this illegitimate sibling ended up with the shares of Bai Group.
Eventually, he looked at Qin Jiangsheng coldly, and said reluctantly, “I’m sorry, it’s all my fault. Can you come home with us now?”
Qin Jiangsheng glanced at Ji Tian, who winked at him, and he slowly nodded, “Hmm.”
It was then that Old Sir Bai finally breathed a sigh of relief, “Let’s go, go home.”
After returning to the Bai Family, and following this incident, even for the sake of face, they wouldn’t treat him too badly. Later, Old Sir Bai sent a gift, a rare green agate vase. Ji Yanshang had an interest in collecting antiques on ordinary days, and Ji Lingyun was learning from him. His entire office was decorated with antiques, making it look like a nouveau riche’s lair.
After dealing with Qin Jiangsheng’s issue, Qiao Luhua turned her attention to her and Ji Weinan, “You two, quickly take out your books and study.”
Ji Weinan: “…” Today was another day he resented Ji Tian.
Ji Tian: “…” Just let it be destroyed, I’m tired.
Ji Weinan’s books were cleaner than his face, without even a name on them. He couldn’t understand what was written in the books, so he was in great agony.
As for Ji Tian, she had developed a condition where she would feel sleepy as soon as she looked at books. She lay weakly on the desk, pretending to read but actually slacking off.
She generously handed the custom-made point-reading machine to Ji Weinan: “This was made by our big brother, I hope you’ll cherish it.”
Ji Weinan looked at her expressionlessly and said: “It’s not ours, it’s yours. This is your stuff, take it and buzz off.”
“Oh my, why so short-tempered?” Ji Tian stretched her head to look at his homework, and praised insincerely: “It’s pretty good, with your neat bookwork the teacher will surely give you a couple of extra points in the exams.”
Ji Weinan: “…” The damage isn’t high, but the insult is extreme.
Talking to Ji Tian easily led to high blood pressure. He turned his head away and kept writing as he copied the answers.
Ji Tian let it be, as long as he was at home, it was fine.
However, the next second his phone rang. Looking at the caller ID, he frowned and then answered: “Hello?”
“Ji Weinan, help me! Ah!”
Ji Weinan’s complexion changed abruptly, his expression turning anxious, “Shen Zhiyi? Zhiyi? Where are you?”
However, the phone was hung up directly, and Ji Weinan grabbed his coat and ran out.
That scream just now was so piercing, it could be heard without speakerphone.
Ji Tian called out to him indifferently, “Third Brother, you haven’t finished your homework yet.”
Ji Weinan was genuinely infuriated, “Ji Tian, what time do you think it is, and you still want me to do homework? Didn’t you hear? Shen Zhiyi is in danger.”
Ji Tian tilted her head, not understanding, “And what does that have to do with you?”
“You!” Ji Weinan was so angry he was lost for words, “Do you have no compassion or morals at all? I have to go find her.”
Ji Tian leaned back on her chair, her tone still flat, “I’m not moral, so don’t try to use morals to bind me. Believe it or not, even if you go now and you find her, she would have already been rescued by someone else, and that person will be Bai Tingyu.”
Ji Weinan stormed out the door, paying no heed to Ji Tian’s words, “Psychopath.”
Ji Tian sighed and began to call out to King of Competition, “Dog system, come out.”
King of Competition: […Want to know about the silence package?]
Ji Tian gritted her teeth and slightly narrowed her eyes, “What’s happening in the storyline right now?”
The voice of King of Competition sounded both lazy and slow: [I’ve said it, the storyline has nothing to do with you.]
Ji Tian’s voice inexplicably took on a more dangerous edge, “I never said I wanted to be involved in the storyline, did I? Letting my brainless Third Brother study more is too much for you? The current plot distracts him from his studies, you’re leading a youth astray, and I want to report this!”
King of Competition: […]
It felt something was wrong with what Ji Tian said, yet also couldn’t find fault in it.
Yeah, why let a storyline affect the development of a healthy, upright flower of the motherland?
Such a sin.
After a long while, it finally spoke leisurely, [Fine, I’ll flip through for you.]
The sound of flipping pages echoed in her mind.
Ji Tian couldn’t resist asking, “Don’t you have a majestic and domineering true form? All the other systems seem to have one; don’t tell me you’re so trash you don’t have one either?”
King of Competition had a principle: it could call itself trash, but it couldn’t stand others calling it trash.
Its tone was wooden, [Wait.]
With a flicker of consciousness, a white object appeared… was it still an egg?
This egg had little arms and legs, and in its hand, it held a book titled “Boss Love Me Addicted.”
Ji Tian’s mouth twitched; she talked about being mighty and powerful like lions, tigers, or dragons, not about an egg that could hatch chicks.
Looking at the cracks on the eggshell, she finally understood why this thing risked getting electrocuted during a bath.
Even the eggshell had expressions.
King of Competition =_= :[The plot developed to where the female lead was cornered by people jealous of her, the male lead went to rescue her, and the silly happy-go-lucky also went to rescue her. Then, the silly happy-go-lucky and the male lead resolved their strained relationship.]
Ji Tian: “…?” Baffled, she rolled a single die.
What do you think?
