TWWMABMTBH Chapter 89
by Volare“!!!” [Anger Value 3000]
Ji Hui, that unlucky younger brother of Ji Shu, instantly flared up, staring intently at Rong Ziyan. However, before he could speak, he felt another gaze.
Hiding behind Rong Ziyan, Ji Shu maintained his tea-like, coquettish stance, busy complaining. But the look in his eyes was full of warning.
Ji Hui’s rationality instantly returned. He suddenly realized exactly who he was standing in front of.
As for Ji Shu’s father and stepmother, they also restrained the anger on their faces.
After all, the Ji Shu in front of them was no longer the pitiful little guy they could bully at will six years ago.
Their reaction made Rong Ziyan frown even tighter.
Because of Boss Fat’s connections, Rong Ziyan had heard quite a bit about the Ji family. He also knew about Ji Shu’s past.
But these small details connected instantly when he saw Ji Shu’s biological parents. A frail and scarred young man suddenly flashed through Rong Ziyan’s mind.
A sharp chin, wrist bones that could be crushed with a little pressure, all kinds of bleeding wounds all over his body, and a pair of peach blossom eyes filled with fear, not daring to believe anyone.
Like a priceless, beautiful porcelain that had been cruelly shattered, and this was Ji Shu’s youth.
A sudden pang of pity welled up in Rong Ziyan’s heart. Turning his head to see Ji Shu, who was hugging him with a pale face, that pity turned into a stronger ache.
Rong Ziyan thought that he was perhaps much luckier than Ji Shu.
Both had come from hardship, but at least his parents loved him. He still had warm memories to trace, and there was still light in his heart.
But what did Ji Shu have?
A mother he had never met, a father who did not deserve to be a human being, and an entire family that was ready to devour him.
Rong Ziyan rarely got angry, but at this moment, the fire in his chest could not be suppressed no matter what.
However, Ji Shu’s scum father, who had been given the role of cannon fodder, also got into character. After looking Rong Ziyan up and down, he automatically classified Rong Ziyan as one of Ji Shu’s boy toys and even dared to provoke him.
“I advise you to mind your own business. No matter how bad our relationship is, Ji Shu is still my son. I know better than you who is around him and where his heart lies.”
“You have a good-looking face, why not earn more money? He’s probably a back door hire for life. I see you have a pretty legitimate job? If you suck up to me, maybe I can help you one day!”
Ji Shu’s father was also fearless.
The fact that Ji Shu was sick had been kept very secret. Most people thought that either some Zhou family member had gotten on Ji Shu’s bad side, or that Ji Shu suddenly didn’t like the Zhou family and had made a move.
After all, Ji Shu was known for his unpredictable temper in their circle. One second he could be laughing and calling you brother, the next he would dare to make your family bankrupt.
Even if he had never done anything outrageous, his methods were too vicious, which naturally left this impression on people.
As for Ji Shu risking his life for true love? That was no different from the latest Arabian Nights tales.
Who in the Beijing circle didn’t know that the young lovers Ji Shao had kept could line up from the Second Ring Road to the outskirts. Three hundred and sixty-five days a year, he would never sleep with the same person twice.
So, looking at the Rong Ziyan in front of him, Ji Shu’s father automatically assumed that Rong Ziyan was one of the people in Ji Shu’s past.
He didn’t dare to challenge Ji Shu, so he was capable of dealing with a little rabbit. He had even figured out that people like Rong Ziyan, who were engaged in scientific research, cared most about their reputation. He was banking on this. Even if Ji Shu was protecting him, Rong Ziyan would have to admit defeat.
After all, if things got out of hand, he couldn’t go on. How could the scientific community accept a scholar who had been taken care of by someone?
Unfortunately, he was clearly playing the cannon fodder role. Rong Ziyan was already famous in the community. After all, as a low-level researcher, he had single-handedly become the driving force behind the Zhou family’s demise. This influence was enough to shock many people.
Only people like Ji Shu’s father, who spent all their time in frivolous pursuits, wouldn’t know about Rong Ziyan’s reputation.
As for now, he was waiting for Rong Ziyan to apologize to him.
Unfortunately, Rong Ziyan had no intention of talking to him. He directly dialed the institute’s emergency number, “Security room? I have three people who forcibly broke in and tried to attack my partner. Please come and take care of them.”
Then, after hanging up, Rong Ziyan immediately called 110.
“Damn! You’re crazy!” Ji Hui was the first to react and tried to snatch Rong Ziyan’s phone.
Old Wu was a bit far away. Ji Shu had sharp eyes and instinctively wanted to protect Rong Ziyan behind him. But Rong Ziyan’s movements were faster than him.
Rong Ziyan grabbed Ji Hui’s wrist with one hand and twisted and pushed. With a “bang,” Ji Hui’s face slammed hard into the wall next to him. He was completely dumbfounded.
Damn it! Old Wu, who had rushed over, was a bit confused. Ji Shu, who had not had a chance to be the hero, also blinked subconsciously, thinking that Ji Hui looked like he was in pain.
Just then, Rong Ziyan’s police call was also connected.
Rong Ziyan’s speech was always concise and to the point. He described the chaotic scene in front of him clearly in a few words.
“I am a senior researcher at the Yanjiao Institute. Three strangers suddenly broke into my dorm and threatened my partner who is not in good health. In addition, the strong one just tried to attack me and has now been subdued by me.”
He was clearly putting a big hat on them, immediately accusing Ji Shu’s scum father of threatening scholars and intending to steal research data from the institute.
How could a person be so dog-like? Ji Shu’s scum family was on the verge of collapse. Even Old Wu looked at Rong Ziyan in shock.
Only Ji Shu was quite smug. He was already good-looking, but now he was smiling like a bewitching little fairy.
Rong Ziyan sighed and hugged the man closer, feeling that Ji Shu had a hard time. No one had ever spoiled him properly for so many years, or else he wouldn’t be so clingy now.
The system, which had always been silent, was too lazy to argue with him, and could only sigh that even a straight dog man’s IQ would rapidly drop to a low point after confirming a relationship.
But no matter how everyone complained, the crime that Rong Ziyan had placed was too outrageous.
In addition, Ji Shu’s scum family had indeed broken in. Ji Shu had just been discharged from the hospital. No matter what family matters were involved, considering how much data there was in Rong Ziyan’s dorm, it was clear that they had made a big mistake.
Moreover, Ji Shu had top-notch hacker skills. Not to mention that his scum father hadn’t even made a move, the moment he even thought about making a move, he would have been guilty of unforgivable sins.
Therefore, the three were quickly restrained and taken out by the security guards. The police who would come later would take further action.
Old Wu followed them to explain the situation, leaving only Rong Ziyan and Ji Shu in the dorm.
Ji Shu wasn’t in good spirits. After confronting them for so long, he began to fall asleep.
Seeing that his eyes couldn’t even stay open, Rong Ziyan simply picked him up from the sofa and placed him on the bed.
He had originally wanted to talk to Ji Shu about their trip in a few days, but seeing his condition, he couldn’t bear to speak.
They hadn’t had many days of peace.
However, Ji Shu seemed to understand his concerns and spoke first, “I’m going abroad in two days.”
Nestled in Rong Ziyan’s arms, Ji Shu’s tone was full of reluctance, “I want to pack Dr. Rong and take him with me in my luggage.”
“Stop it.” Rong Ziyan touched Ji Shu’s hair.
Ji Shu muffled an “Mm,” “Are you also going out for sampling and investigation?”
“Yes.” Rong Ziyan agreed directly and also spoke of his previous idea. “It’s estimated to take four months. I’ll come back to Beijing once in the middle to do a summary report and a new plan. How long will you be gone?”
As soon as Ji Shu opened his mouth, Rong Ziyan realized that he had been overthinking things. Ji Shu looked weak, but he was actually not a clinging vine. He just always acted coquettish towards him, giving Rong Ziyan the illusion that he had raised a little pampered wife. After all, the person in front of him had never been associated with the word “delicate.”
Thinking of it this way, Rong Ziyan was suddenly enlightened. At the same time, he also quickly realized that the family of three had probably come not to threaten him.
With Ji Shu’s temper, how could he be easily bullied?
So, Rong Ziyan pinched Ji Shu’s chin and shook it, making him open his eyes, “Tell me, what exactly happened just now?”
Ji Shu was very sleepy, looking at Rong Ziyan aggrievedly. After a while, seeing that he couldn’t get away with it, he could only start explaining, “It’s about his eldest son’s matter.”
“What was previously publicly announced was that he was a stepson brought by his remarried wife and had no blood relation. Now that he’s older, he doesn’t have much real power himself and doesn’t have enough weight. His adopted son is even more awkward and it’s hard to find a suitable marriage partner for him. So he wanted to discuss with me about letting him officially enter the family.”
“Is he crazy?” Rong Ziyan frowned.
Ji Shu yawned, not caring much, “Maybe he’s just daydreaming.”
The situation of the Ji family back then was complicated. Ji Shu’s mother was deceived by his scum father and mistakenly thought that he was deeply in love with her, so she brought a huge dowry to marry into the family.
As a result, not long after, Ji Shu’s maternal grandfather passed away and she was left helpless. The shrewd Old Master Ji schemed against her.
Later, Ji Shu’s mother learned the truth and wanted to fight to the death, but she discovered that she was pregnant with Ji Shu at this time.
A mother’s love is strong. Ji Shu’s mother persevered for her child but did not escape the difficulties of childbirth. As soon as Ji Shu was born, she left this world.
Originally, he thought that Ji Shu would be taken care of as the eldest grandson of the Ji family because Old Master Ji valued his descendants. But he did not know that the Ji family had already had a true eldest grandson three years before Ji Shu was born.
Ji Shu’s existence was just a stumbling block for the eldest grandson to enter the family.
In addition, in the eyes of the Ji family, Ji Shu had always been an ungrateful white-eyed wolf.
Therefore, back then, Ji Shu’s scum father, despite his parental instincts, tried to kill Ji Shu. Old Master Ji knew about it but tacitly agreed.
If Ji Shu had not been resilient, he would probably no longer exist in this world.
Ji Shu spoke of these things calmly and without any reservations, but Rong Ziyan felt even more uncomfortable.
Seeing that he had been silent for a while, Ji Shu quickly moved his face closer to Rong Ziyan’s, whispering, “I did it on purpose.”
“What?” Rong Ziyan couldn’t keep up with Ji Shu’s train of thought.
Ji Shu propped himself up and lowered his head to rub his nose against Rong Ziyan’s, his tone even more coquettish, “I said I did it on purpose, made myself look a little pitiful so that Rong Rong would feel sorry for me.”
“Stop it.” Knowing that Ji Shu was trying to lighten the mood, Rong Ziyan couldn’t help but laugh.
Immediately, Ji Shu’s gaze on the corner of Rong Ziyan’s lips became scorching, and his tone became a hundred times more ambiguous than before.
“Not kidding.” Ji Shu’s voice lowered, deliberately imitating a mechanical voice, “Di—Your Big Baby has arrived at the scene and needs Doctor Rong’s kisses, hugs, and high throws to sleep well.”
Ji Shu’s pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes were full of hints, step by step, taking every inch to seduce Rong Ziyan, “Doctor Rong, are you really not coming?”
The author has something to say: Ji Shu: I’m beautiful, have a sweet voice, and know how to be coquettish. All I need is a Doctor Rong!
