“If not, then that is the proof that you are breaking up with Family Jing, right? In that case, I have nothing more to say to you. After all, father isn’t driving you out of the family, it is you who wants to establish your own company.”
Having said the words, Jing Yichen turned to Mo Lan and asked again, “Isn’t that right, Grandma?”
Jing Yichen barely called Mo Lan “Grandma”. But he chose to address her so deliberately at this moment.
Mo Lan nodded involuntarily and mumbled, “Yes…”
Jing Yiran’s expression was turning worse by the minute.
What was going on with Jing Yichen? He never behaved like this.
He always used violence to punch him and hated to reason with him through words.
But today he was talking reasonably.
This could not continue. Mo Lan was his only supporter in Family Jing and he had been expecting that Mo Lan could help him get some properties of Family Jing.
Cold sweat soaked Jing Yiran’s shirt, which stuck to his body, making him feel uncomfortable.
“I am a part of Family Jing. Why must I hand in anything? What rule is that? Dad has driven me out and now you are saying that it is my fault? I have been fooled by Ji Bo when it came to the shares exchange but I never wanted to betray Family Jing. You are putting wrong charges on me with your clever words.”
Fists clenched, Jing Yiran started to argue feebly.
Within a few seconds, more and more people were gathered in the corridor.
Jing Yichen nodded at Tiger next to him, gesturing to him that everyone should go back to their rooms.
He was not speaking with a low voice and everyone present had heard what he said. What Jing Yiran had done was unforgivable and Family Jing already gave him a chance to overturn it. But he gave up the chance and had decided to stand against Family Jing instead.
People were not stupid. They all understood what he meant.
Even Mo Lan understood what was going on.
She stared at the grandson whom she had raised for thirty years. She couldn’t believe that what he was doing was against Family Jing and he was out to destroy them.
“Ran, your brother is right. Return the shares and Family Jing will surely allow you back. If you lack money to spend, I have got enough. You can buy whatever you want. It is okay if the shares of Family Jing are with them, as long as your brother gets hold of the shares of Family Ji. He will definitely get our shares back. He is capable, isn’t he?”
The story was unfolding in a different manner from what Jing Yiran had expected. He was losing control of the situation.
But he had achieved his purpose of being here and it was time for him to leave.
“Grandma, it is not that simple. I can get back what we have lost. My brother doesn’t need to clean up the mess for me.”
Suddenly, Jing Yiran had hands over his chest and showed an agonised expression. Then he held Mo Lan’s arms and said, “My chest hurts badly now, maybe the wounds have opened again. Since father isn’t letting me in, I can come back when I get the shares.”
Having said the words, he left the hotel instantly, despite Mo Lan’s calling him back.
Seeing his retreating figure, Jing Yichen felt a bit anxious.
Jing Yiran had not behaved normally today. He was a strong person who would never retreat, no matter the circumstances. He would continue to fight against him no matter what.
Pressing down the anxiety inside his heart, Jing Yichen said to Tiger behind him, “Pass the order that anyone not on the list, is not allowed in. Keep the gates guarded!”
Tiger quickly started to spread the order.
He understood that Jing Yichen needed to stress to everyone that even if Jing Yiran was with the old lady today, he should not be allowed in.
Luckily they had not fought today, otherwise the wedding would have been impacted, had the groom been injured.
Mo Lan wasn’t assured about Jing Yiran, so she followed him out.
This was the only fancy hotel in the neighborhood and she was worried that Jing Yiran would have no place to stay overnight. What was more, he had not yet recovered from the wound and might get sick again.
Jing Zhongxiu patted his son on the shoulders and said in composure, “Get back to the room and rest well. Tomorrow is an important day for you and Ning. Leave everything else onto me.”
Although Jing Yiran didn’t make a fuss today, many people had seen the tension between the father and son.
Jing Zhongxiu must deliver the message to everyone present that Jing Yiran had been driven out and was not part of the family any more.
Jing Yichen nodded and then turned to walk back to his room.
As soon as he went inside the room, he frowned. All the lights were off.
It was quite dark inside the room, but Jing Yichen, who had been well trained in the darkness, adjusted his vision easily.
He was a bit confused as to why Shangguan Ning had gone to bed so early. She would not sleep alone without him, and also would always keep the light on for him.
Jing Yichen took off his coat and hung it up to the clothes hanger, changed into the slippers and entered the bedroom.
The moonlight pierced the window and sprinkled over the entire room, making the room look beautiful.
Under the blanket, next to the window was a silhouette, slender and beautiful.
A light fragrance could be sensed in the room as well.
Jing Yichen reached the bedside and said sharply, “Get up now, if you don’t want to die.”
But the figure in the bed didn’t move.
In the luxurious presidential suite, a gun was loaded and aimed at the beautiful silhouette under the blanket without hesitation.
Jing Yichen looked very cold. The veins on his forehead popped out and his fingers were trembling.
He wanted to kill now!
But this person couldn’t die yet!
It was deadly silent, even the air seemed to have stopped moving.
The figure in the blanket eventually moved.
She stood up from the bed and aimed the gun screwed with silencer at Jing Yichen as she said in astonishment, “How did find out that I am not Shangguan Ning?”
“If not, then that is the proof that you are breaking up with Family Jing, right? In that case, I have nothing more to say to you. After all, father isn’t driving you out of the family, it is you who wants to establish your own company.”
