â Iâve checked the airport, train station, and bus station. Thereâs no information on Ji Jingâs ticket booking.â Ji Lingâs assistant rushed to the living room of the Ji family with the information he had gathered. Facing the brothers who were staring at him, the assistant, who was used to seeing big scenes, felt a rare sense of nervousness.
âWhat about the waterway? The port? The last time she took a cruiseâ¦â Ji Ying suddenly asked.
â No, the port has been checked one by one today.â The assistant was very capable and had checked everything he could think of.â If she left the city on the highway, it would be difficult to identify her without any vehicle information.
âShe probably wonât take a carâ¦She has motion sickness.â Ji Ying leaned back on the sofa.
He recalled the bastard things he had done back then and really wanted to scold himself.
. What did Lingyun Temple say?â Ji Yi asked.
âThat Taoist priest only said that he received Ji Jingâs request to take care of Wang Cai. He doesnât know where sheâs going.â âIâve also asked the other Taoist priests, but they all said that thereâs no news of her,â the assistant reported.
Everyone in the Ji family fell silent.
Suddenly, the door was pushed open.
âWhereâs Ji Jing? Why did Ji Jing suddenly run away from home?â Ji Ming walked in anxiously. Yun Yue followed closely behind, also looking flustered.
Ji Ling handed the letter that Ji Jing had left behind to Ji Ming. Ji Ming opened it, and his hands trembled as he held the letter.
âMaybe Sister Ji Jing just doesnât like us.â âPerhaps letting her pursue her own life is also a form of freedom?â Ji Yao probed.
âFreedom?â Ji Xun sneered.â Ji Yao, donât be too obvious. Do you think that a child who has just come of age is free to leave home alone without being cared for by his family?â
âI have no other intentions!â Ji Yao blushed.â Mom and Dad are so good to her, but she doesnât appreciate itâ¦
Before Ji Yao could finish her words, Ji Ying suddenly slammed the table and stood up.â Ji Jing has already run away from home. Why are you still trying to sow discord here?!â Ji Yao, donât treat everyone like fools. We treat you like family and spoil you like a sister, but that doesnât mean you can throw dirty water on Ji Jing without any bottom line!â
âI didnât say anything about the medicine box last time, but that doesnât mean I donât know! Also, the things that happened to you in the hospital before, one by one, me, Ji Yi, Third Brother, Mom⦠You know very well how many words youâve said to sow discord in front of us! Finding Jing Jing is the most important thing now. Donât stir up any more trouble!â Ji Ying angrily rebuked.
Ji Yingâs words were like a bolt of lightning, directly tearing apart the last layer of window paper.
âYouâre the one who wants to interfere with Ji Jingâs scholarship, arenât you?â Ji Yi looked at her coldly.â Why do you think that we brothers donât know how to communicate with each other and donât know everything youâve done?â
When Ji Xun returned from the back mountain, he had told them everything. The few brothers gathered together and explained everything to each other.
They immediately understood everything. It was especially clear who was causing trouble.
In the past, the Ji brothers had never doubted Ji Yao. As long as Ji Yao said it, they would believe it. As long as it was what Ji Yao wanted, they would be satisfied.
Therefore, Ji Yaoâs methods didnât need to be brilliant to be able to fool the Ji family.
This easy success had numbed Ji Yao. She had never thought that if one day, the Ji family no longer trusted her and doted on her, how would everything she had done end?
Ji Yao was so shocked that her eyes were trembling as she shrank beside Yun Yue.
âJi Yao, go to your room.â Yun Yue pulled Ji Yaoâs hand off with irresistible force.
Her palm suddenly felt empty, and Ji Yaoâs heart felt empty as well.
âMom?â Ji Yao looked at Yun Yue in panic.
Yun Yue, on the other hand, was more clear-headed than ever. She doted on Ji Yao, but she knew that her other children would not lie to her. She also knew that regardless of whether the past was true or not, Ji Yaoâs sarcastic remarks at the time when Ji Jing left home clearly had ill intentions.
Ji Yao had never been so angrily criticized and ignored by anyone, especially the Ji family. This was clearly a situation she wanted to create for Ji Jing. She never thought that one day, it would fall on her.
It was only then that Ji Yao realized how much pain and grievance she had to endure.
She regretted it. She deeply regretted it. She had been too anxious and exposed herself. She should have hidden it a little longer.
She tasted the taste of regret, but she didnât feel any real regret for doing something wrong.
âBoss, thereâs news!â The assistant suddenly raised his head and interrupted the argument.â Thereâs a check-in at a hotel in the western desert!â
âLetâs go!â Everyone from the Ji family suddenly stood up..
