“Are you alright?” Ji Zixuan looked at Ji Yuanyuan.
“It’s fine. It’s all healed. With such a small wound, if I hadn’t deliberately let them have their way so that 1 could leave evidence, they wouldn’t have been able to touch the corner of my clothes.” Ji Yuanyuan used her hand to measure the length of the wound.
Ji Zixuan reprimanded her righteously, “You can’t do such dangerous things again in the future. What if you can’t grasp everything well? What if you fail?”
“What your Big Brother said is right. You should never risk your life in the future.” Zhang Kun also advised her.
Ji Yuanyuan admitted her mistake obediently, “I understand. If 1 encounter such a thing again, 1 will run. The farther 1 run, the better. 1 will call the police when 1 reach a safe place.”
Every time they scolded her, she would quickly admit her mistake and promise not to do it again.
Every time, Li Xu and the others were also speechless.
As they spoke, Ji Zi’ang suddenly jumped from the sofa, “Brother Mucheng is here, 1’11 open the door.”
“Why is Mucheng here at this hour?” Li Xu was a little surprised. “Besides, the one who wanted to go is Yuanyuan. Why are you in such a hurry?”
“I asked him to come. He even drove Uncle Qin’s sports car, we’ll go for a ride for a while.”
With that, Ji Zi’ang ran out in a flash.
Ji Yuanyuan looked thoughtfully at Ji Ziang’s back and had a rough idea.
The two of them were probably going for a ride at night.
“Oh right, Yuanyuan, call Jingyi and Xinyi and ask them to come over for dinner tonight.” Li Xu said.
Hu Chunli and Deng Juan were still in City W, so Li Xu naturally had to take care of them.
Ji Yuanyuan replied with an “oh” and took out her phone.
Ji Zixuan’s expression turned awkward for a moment. He looked around and finally fixed his gaze on the television.
There was an advertis.e.m.e.nt playing on the television, and a child was jumping around.
Ji Yuanyuan called Fang Xinyi first. Fang Xinyi had nothing to do during the weekend, so she quickly agreed.
After hanging up Fang Xinyi’s call, Ji Yuanyuan called Yang Jingyi.
The moment the call went through, Ji Zixuan tensed up.
“What’s the matter? What do you want?” Yang Jingyi had probably rejected the offer, so Ji Yuanyuan asked.
Ji Yuanyuan said, “Alright then, we’ll talk about it next time.”
After hanging up the phone, Ji Yuanyuan looked at Li Xu, “Fang Xinyi is free. Yang Jingyi said she had something on tonight and wouldn’t be coming over.”
Ji Zixuan heaved a sigh of relief after Ji Yuanyuan finished speaking.
Ji Yuanyuan looked at him suspiciously, “Big Brother, what’s wrong?”
Ji Zixuan stood up guiltily and shook his head, “It’s nothing. I’ll go down and see why Zi’ang and Mucheng haven’t come up yet.”
“Alright, you guys go play for a while. The meal aren’t done yet.” Li Xu said.
Since there was nothing much to do at home, Ji Yuanyuan decided to follow Ji Zixuan downstairs.
Downstairs, there was a luxurious black sports car. Ji Zi’ang was sitting in the driver’s seat, touching it left and right excitedly.
Qin Mucheng stood at the side and taught him how to use it.
“Brother Mucheng, can you really lend me this car tonight? Does Uncle Qin know?” Ji Ziang raised his head and looked at Qin Mucheng eagerly.
Qin Mucheng nodded, “My father knows. He chose this car. He said that he had someone modify this car. It’s the most suitable car for racing among all his cars.”
Ji Zi’ang touched the steering wheel lovingly, “Then thank Uncle Qin for me.”
Ji Yuanyuan frowned, “What are you going to do tonight?”
“You don’t have to worry about it. 1’11 cover for you guys tonight. You and Brother Mucheng can go wherever you want.” Satisfied, he got out of the car and carefully put the keys in his pocket after locking the car.
Ji Yuanyuan took the car keys from his pocket when he was not paying attention, “I know what you’re going to do. You’re not allowed to go!”
“Why do you care? Brother Mucheng has already promised me, so return the key to me!” Ji Zi’ang said anxiously as he tried to s.n.a.t.c.h the keys.
Ji Yuanyuan hid behind Ji Zixuan. Ji Zi’ang did not dare to s.n.a.t.c.h it again and only said indignantly, “Give it back to me. I’m not doing anything bad.”
“Do you know what he’s going to do?” Ji Yuanyuan looked at Qin Mucheng.
Qin Mucheng instantly became nervous and hurriedly explained, “Zi’ang said he wanted to try it out and go for a ride with his friends who like racing.”
“He didn’t tell the truth!” Ji Yuanyuan shook her head.
“How do you know I’m not telling the truth?” Ji Zi’ang asked anxiously.
“Second Brother, I reminded you last time. If you really like it, tell Mom and Dad. Maybe they will support you! Do you know that you’re breaking the law by sneaking around like this?”
Initially, he did not think much of it and thought that it was just a small fight between the siblings.
However, when Ji Zixuan heard Ji Yuanyuan mention the word illegal, his expression turned serious.
“Ji Zi’ang, what’s going on? Why did you borrow Uncle Qin’s car?”
“How am I breaking the law?” Ji Zi’ang was still stubborn. “Don’t accuse me wrongly!”
“The compet.i.tion you partic.i.p.ated in last time was obviously organized by a private organization. They had specially chosen a remote mountain and set up roadblocks at the foot of the mountain at night. If it was reasonable and compliant, why would they do that? Has this compet.i.tion been recorded? Did the person who received the bonus pay taxes?” Ji Yuanyuan asked a few questions in one breath, leaving Ji Zi’ang speechless.
In the beginning, Ji Yuanyuan did not realize this. It was only later that Brother Xiao Li reminded her.
After that compet.i.tion, Qin Junshan had a heart-to-heart chat with Ji Zi’ang. Ever since then, he had told Qin Junshan everything about racing.
In the past few months, he had not partic.i.p.ated in any compet.i.tions.
Since he did not partic.i.p.ate in the compet.i.tion, Ji Yuanyuan was not in a hurry to talk to him about it.
However, she did not expect Ji Zi’ang to have thoughts of partic.i.p.ating in the compet.i.tion again.
At the thought of this, Ji Yuanyuan glanced at Qin Mucheng. Qin Mucheng tactfully said, “I’m sorry, Zi’ang. I can’t lend you the car for the time being.”
Ji Zi’ang’s face was red with anger, “Ji Yuanyuan, I’ve made ample preparations this time. Can you trust me just this once? I’ll go for the last one. I’m sure 1’11 win the award. The bonus is 50,000 yuan. With that 50,000 yuan, 1 can go to the training.”
“Ji Zi’ang, who are you yelling at? Apologize to Yuanyuan!” Ji Zixuan said coldly.
Ji Zi’ang pursed his lips and looked at Ji Yuanyuan stubbornly without saying a word.
Ji Zixuan wanted to say something else, but Ji Yuanyuan secretly tugged at the corner of his shirt.
“Second Brother, why don’t you want to tell Dad and Mom?” Ji Yuanyuan took a step forward and stood in front of him. She asked seriously, “Dad and Mom are not stubborn and unreasonable people. They might support you. How will you know if you don’t try?”
Ji Zi’ang’s eyes were red from being wronged, “1 just don’t want to tell them. Why do you have to manage me?”
At the end of the sentence, his voice was a little choked..
