Chu Feng nodded and turned his gaze to Ji Yan, who had been quietly guarding at the side. The young man was still somewhat uneasy in the face of Ji Yan’s oppressive gaze, but he didn’t shrink back. Instead, he bravely raised his eyes and looked at Ji Yan. He spoke to Ji Yan as Shen Hanxing’s family, “Mr.
Ji, Sister Hanxing is a very, very important family member to us. Brother Xiao Yu wishes for Sister Hanxing to live well, more than any of us. If he said anything rude to you, I hope you can be magnanimous and not hold it against him.”
Shen Hanxing was astonished. “What did Xiao Yu say to Ji Yan?”
Only men could clearly see the undercurrents between men.
“Nothing,” Ji Yan held Shen Hanxing’s slightly cold palm and gently gestured for her to be at ease. Then, he said to Chu Feng, “I won’t hold it against any of you, you’re all her family. You can come and play often in the future, She’ll be very happy when you come.”
Although Ji Yan was sitting in a wheelchair, the temperament of someone who had been in a high position for a long time would not disappear easily. His gaze was so sharp that no one dared to look him in the eye.
Ji Yan’s tone was gentle. Although he didn’t make any promises, Chu Feng knew that this was also a kind of promise. His heart instantly relaxed. “Thank you, Mr. Ji.”
The chauffeur drove the car to the front door. The three of them got into the car and left the Ji family home.
“You guys go back first. I’m going to the greenhouse.” After seeing them off, Shen Hanxing recalled the disaster-ridden orchid that she had brought back. After the banquet ended, she took the orchid from Elder Zhuang and temporarily stored it in the greenhouse.
As the orchid was not in that terrible condition for long, it looked like it would survive. With Shen Hanxing’s meticulous care during this period, the orchid looked much better now.
Hearing Shen Hanxing mention the greenhouse, Ji Qian also thought of the orchid. She was subconsciously worried. She said nervously, “Sister-in-law, I’ll go with you.”

After all, this matter had started because of her. Now that her sister-in-law had to take responsibility for her, just thinking about it made Ji Qian feel guilty.
Ji Ning bit her lip. She was very sensitive to emotions, so she subconsciously raised her eyes to look at Ji Yan’s expression. When she went downstairs today, she accidentally saw the newspaper that her brother was reading. The biggest section of the newspaper was a report on the events that happened at
Ji Yan was very alert. The moment Ji Ning looked at him, he immediately stared back at her. Ji Ning’s face instantly turned pale, and she timidly took a step back.
“What, are you afraid that I’m angry?” Ji Yan was a little amused. Although Ji Ning had stepped out of her protective shell, it would take a while for her to change her timid side. Moreover, Ji Ning’s fear of Ji Yan was from the bottom of her heart.
Ji Ning paused and asked carefully, “Then, are you angry, Big Brother?” After asking, she did not wait for Ji Yan to answer. She anxiously explained, “Sister-in-law and Fourth Sister are not to blame for that incident. Someone deliberately framed Fourth Sister. Sister-in-law was also trying to protect her
and our family…”

Ji Ning was afraid that her big brother would get angry at her sister-in-law and think that she was being impulsive and meddlesome. Sister-in-law was such a good person, she should not be subjected to such harsh criticism.
Hearing Ji Ning’s words, Ji Qian also reacted, and her face instantly turned pale. She had been afraid of her oldest brother since young. Her oldest brother was groomed as the family’s successor. He had a cold personality and an IQ close to that of a demon. No matter how arrogant and haughty she usually
was, she would become meek the moment she met Ji Yant. She did not dare to cause any trouble at all in front of him.
At that moment, Ji Qian’s legs were trembling. Although she instinctively wanted to run away, she still braced herself and stepped forward to admit her mistake. “I’m sorry, Big Brother. It was my fault. I was not vigilant enough and made friends with the wrong people. That’s why I got into trouble.
Sister-in-law was just trying to protect me…” she paused for a moment. She raised her fingers and promised seriously, “I swear, if that orchid is still not back to its normal state in three months, I will go to the Zhuang family to apologize. I will definitely not bring shame to the Ji family.”
The atmosphere was a little cold. The relaxed and happy atmosphere suddenly went still.
As the masters of the house did not come back in for a long time, the butler went out to check what was happening, The scene before him also made him worried and he did not dare to make any noise.
After a long while, a soft laugh broke the tense atmosphere. Shen Hanxing looked at the sisters who were in front of her, trying to protect her. Shen Hanxing said with amusement, “You don’t think that Mr. Ji only found out about what happened at the dinner party today, right?”
Even if Ji Yan had given up his position as the head of the Ji family due to health reasons, he would not receive such news related to the family this late. What happened at the dinner party concerned the pride and interests of the Ji Corporation. If Ji Yan had not received the news on the same day, he would
