Chapter 185: Backstabbing Brother with Fake Gold (23)
to the place.
Ji Chutang was unwilling to go in. She knew she had done something wrong, but she was deeply torn inside.
On the one hand, she knew clearly that what she had done was wrong, but on the other hand, she stubbornly felt that if the Ji family had not treated her like that, she would not have retaliated against them, so it was all their fault.
All kinds of complicated emotions came to my mind.
This made her look stubborn and she refused to move forward. The resentment in her eyes was out of control, but when Ji Huaiqing approached, she restrained it in her heart.
Ji Huaiqing was always observing Ji Chutang and naturally noticed that something was wrong with her mood.
Ji Huaiqing held her hand, and Ji Chutang's mind suddenly calmed down, her attention was attracted, and those messy emotions receded in an instant, no longer occupying Ji Chutang's mind.
Ji Chutang's face froze and he struggled for a while, trying to break free from Ji Huaiqing's hand, but he couldn't. He kicked Ji Huaiqing in frustration.
However, Ji Huaiqing looked calm and refused to let go. He held Ji Chutang's hand tightly, forcing her palm to touch his.
He walked very fast.
Ji Chutang didn't bother to argue with him and hurried to catch up with him.
Everyone was in the living room, and all the main members of the Ji family were present. It was like a trial in court, and the atmosphere was serious and stagnant.
No one dared to speak. Old Master Ji closed his eyes and rested, but his face was intimidating without even being angry.
Seeing Ji Huaiqing and Ji Chutang coming in, the atmosphere was no longer quiet and began to become restless.
Old Master Ji opened his eyes and tapped the ground with his cane, making a noise, and then everything became quiet again in an instant.
Ji Chutang didn't like this kind of scene.
Ji Huaiqing had already let go of her hand and took two steps forward: "Grandpa, I brought Tangtang back."
"Yes." Mr. Ji said in a dignified tone.
But in Ji Chutang's eyes, this was a manifestation of disgust towards her. Ever since Ji Yuewen came back, Ji Chutang's nerves began to become sensitive.
Even just one sentence can make her think of other things.
"Tell me, why did you collude with the Xue family kid?"
Mr. Ji began to question.
However, before Ji Chutang could reply, Uncle Ji's family nearby could no longer sit still.
It was as if he had finally found an opportunity to speak.
They stared at Ji Chutang with their eyes wide open and spoke aggressively.
"Why else? Because I can't keep him acquainted with her."
"That's right. I raised him for so many years in vain, and he turned out to be a traitor."
"Maybe, he has married into the Xue family and looks down on our Ji family."
The words were harsh, as if Ji Chutang was an unforgivable criminal.
This made Ji's father and mother frown. Ji's mother, who was always gentle, also started to scold:
"Tangtang hasn't said anything yet, why are you two jumping around? Just correct the child if he does something wrong. He is not your child, so it is not your turn to yell at him."
Father Ji also said, "Second brother, you should take care of yourself. I have heard some things."
This is a blatant threat from Father Ji.
Uncle Ji's expression suddenly turned ugly, he moved his mouth, and finally could only snort coldly.
It seemed that Second Aunt Ji still wanted to speak.
Old Master Ji said, "What's the point of making so much noise? I didn't ask you any questions, so just shut up."
Silence.
Then the old man turned and looked at Ji Chutang.
Ji Chutang stiffened his neck, not wanting to admit that he had done anything wrong, but he was unable to refute it.
Finally, I could only say:
"I didn't collude with Xue Heng."
Seeing that she refused to admit it, Mr. Ji's eyes were full of disappointment, and Ji's father and mother were also anxious and disappointed.
Ji Yuewen, who had been silent and had never spoken, looked at Ji Chutang with a disapproving look.
The expressions on Ji Erbo's family's faces were even more disdainful. They felt that what they said was correct. Ji Chutang was an ungrateful person, and he dared not admit it.
Taking into account that Mr. Ji is partial.
In the end, they chose to keep quiet, but the look in their eyes was too obvious for Ji Chutang to ignore. It was so stimulating that she instantly thought of the words she heard last time.
"You are also a child of the Ji family. Why would you do such a thing? The Ji family has never done anything wrong to you."
Mr. Ji's tone was even full of helplessness and confusion.
But Ji Chutang didn't understand what he heard.
Didn't you feel sorry for her?
How dare you say that? Ji Chutang couldn't help but sneer.
Even if he didn't do anything to her openly, he might be plotting some dirty tricks in secret. Doesn't she know about it?
Ji Chutang's attitude completely angered Grandpa Ji. He really couldn't understand. Although the child had been spoiled since childhood, he had never made any mistakes of principle.
But now he is so stubborn.
Could it be that jealousy really arises because of blood ties? However, this is not something that any of them wants to see.
But it has already happened.
Then they would not allow their children to suffer outside.
What's more, the one who really suffered in this matter was Ji Yuewen, so what right did she have to feel resentful?
"You are simply..."
Old Master Ji was so angry that he pointed at Ji Chutang and was speechless, which made the scene a little chaotic.
Father Ji couldn't stand it anymore and scolded him harshly: "Ji Chutang, admit your mistake and apologize."
Ji's mother couldn't believe that the child she raised would be so rebellious and unruly, and her eyes were full of disappointment.
"Tangtang, you...how could you do this."
The tone was inevitably a little anxious.
Ji Erbo's family added fuel to the fire, and almost everyone present was blaming her, or blaming her, or feeling disappointed.
The string in Ji Chutang's head could no longer be sustained.
Her rationality quickly faded away, and the impulse in her mind could no longer be suppressed. She could not hear what they were saying, and she just felt her head buzzing.
She could only see the expressions of disappointment and disgust on their faces, the movements of their hands, and their mouths that seemed to be aggressive, constantly speaking to her, even though she could not hear anything.
The next second, she suddenly saw a knife in the fruit plate on the coffee table.
A thought suddenly came to my mind.
Ji Huaiqing vaguely felt that there was something wrong with Ji Chutang beside him. He didn't say a word, and his reaction was completely different from the past. His expression was also a little abnormal.
When no one noticed.
Ji Chutang suddenly made a move.
She pounced over in an instant, holding a small knife in her hand.
Everyone was shocked.
Especially Uncle Ji's family, they shouted and retreated, fearing that Ji Chutang would pounce on them and hurt them.
Others were also frightened by Ji Chutang and did not dare to act rashly for fear of upsetting her.
Ji Huaiqing quickly lowered his voice and coaxed, "It's dangerous, Tangtang, put the knife down."
Then he slowly approached Ji Chutang.
But Ji Chutang didn't buy his tricks at all. He looked crazy, emotional and spoke harshly.
"Go away and don't come near me."
As he spoke, he pointed the fruit knife at his neck.
This action almost scared Ji Huaiqing to death. His pupils suddenly shrank and he immediately stopped approaching Ji Chutang.
