609 Everyone Stayed up Late
Ji Qian and Ji Zhou were secretly exchanging sights. Ji Ning lowered his head guiltily and took a sip of porridge to cover up his dark circles. She had also partic.i.p.ated last night but wasn’t very strong in combat and could only secretly like the posts when Ji Qian was scolding people. She also cheered for her when Ji Qian was at it. It was a waste of energy to argue with those scolding people!
“My brothers and sisters didn’t seem to sleep well,” Ji Mo was the only one who looked full of energy. He smiled obediently and said, “the online services are very comprehensive now, don’t you all know that? You can do a lot of things with just a little money.”
Ji Qian’s eyes widened in shock, and she wondered if Ji Mo would meet her gaze. Ji Mo nodded and said refinedly, “there’s a professional process for reasoning with people. It’s easier for a professional to do this kind of thing.” Last night, he took out a sum of pocket money and hired a professional to do it. It was much simpler and more efficient than doing it himself. There were very few things that one person could do, but it was different when a group did it.
With this comparison, Ji Zhou and Ji Qian appeared very stupid. Neither of them admitted that they had done something stupid. They glared at each other and then buried their heads in their food. They had only stayed up late! I stayed up late!
!!
“Ji Mo, send me your contact information,” Ji Ning clenched his fists. Then, she lowered her voice and said, “I’ll go and find a professional.”
Ji Mo grinned and nodded.
“What do you want to buy?” Grandma was old and didn’t know much about the new things on the internet. She asked in confusion, “can’t you siblings share one? Do you have to buy one each?”
Ji Qian and the others froze at the same time. They had all chosen to hide things on the internet from grandma because they didn’t want her to be unhappy. They had gotten carried away just now.
“Nothing, they were just playing around.” Shen Hanxing chuckled, “Grandma, don’t mind them. Let them buy whatever they want. She knew that Ji Qian and the others were protecting her and her heart felt even warmer. This way, the criticism online was insignificant.
Quietly eating her breakfast, Qiao Xi looked up at them with envy. How wonderful! The Ji family was so protective of Mrs. Ji. Even though she was being scolded online, they still trusted her unconditionally. She never knew that a home could be so warm nor that a girl could receive so much protection. She did not have to be beaten or scolded, nor did she have to do the heavy housework. She just needed to live a glamorous life. This was probably what it meant to have different lives!
Qiao Xi suddenly lost her appet.i.te. She put down her bowl and chopsticks and said softly, “I’m full.”
“You’ve only eaten so little?” Grandma looked at Qiao Xi disapprovingly, “is it because you have a bad appet.i.te? Do you want some porridge?”
“I-I probably didn’t sleep well,” Qiao Xi squeezed her fingers uneasily and said in a low voice, “I’ll eat some fruits later when I’m hungry. I’ll go upstairs to rest now.” She had explained it to people online for a long time last night. However, her words carried little weight and did not cause too much of a splash. On the contrary, she could not help but cry under the blanket after being scolded by those people.
Compared to Shen Hanxing’s help, Qiao Xi felt that what she had done was insignificant, and she was too embarra.s.sed to say it out loud. Her eyes were red and slightly swollen. When she thought about one of the videos leaked online, where the man who had been beaten up was Qiao Xi’s boyfriend, Ji Ning couldn’t help but look at her worriedly. “Sister Qiao Xi, are you alright?”
Qiao Xi’s heart warmed. She shook her head. “It’s fine. I’ll be fine after some sleep.”
“Then you should go upstairs and sleep. I’ll tell the servant to warm some porridge for you. If you’re hungry, come down and have some,” Ji Ning said.
Qiao Xi could not help but feel a little overwhelmed. She could tell that the Ji family’s brothers and sisters had become gentler towards her, and Ji Qian, who always had a haughty air about her, now looked at her with more kindness. Even if she did not say anything, the Ji family could tell what she had done last night. Qiao Xi responded with a smile, then turned around and went upstairs in a daze. Pat! Halfway up the stairs, her phone suddenly fell to the ground, making a clear sound.
Qiao Xi looked in the direction of the voice and saw the news pop up on the screen. Her pupils constricted. “Mrs. Ji, quickly take a look. Someone on the internet claims to be your parents and is slandering you!”
