Chapter 1293: Yun Qitian's Terrible Idea

~8 min read 1,475 words

"Do you dislike him?"

Liu Min shook her head like a rattle-drum: "I don't dislike him."

"Respect?"

"What's that mean, respect?"

Shi Ran:...

Fine, she needed to reflect on herself; she couldn't use obscure, difficult vocabulary when talking to Liu Min, she had to use plain language.

Shi Ran reorganized her words and said: "It's just the kind of respect a junior has for an elder, just like how you are toward your father."

She didn't understand before the explanation, and after the explanation, Liu Min was confused.

"I don't respect my father either; whatever I want, he gives me. Wang Yong is the same; he's not many years younger than my father, and he treats me just as well, so, so I just wanted to ask him to be my godfather."

"And now?"

"Now I don't know, my heart is very chaotic."

Shi Ran:...

Matters of the heart, even for the smartest people, are impossible to explain clearly.

Shi Ran could crack the world's most difficult passwords and write the most complex programs, but she sat with Liu Min for an entire afternoon and still couldn't help her understand her own heart.

There was no help for it; this field was not Shi Ran's specialty, and Liu Min had asked the wrong person.

Returning home in the evening, Shi Ran asked her husband for a method.

Her husband smiled mysteriously: "It's very simple; let there be other women around Uncle Wang and see if she gets jealous."

Shi Ran:...

She looked at her husband with an unkind gaze; Yun Qitian was no fool and reacted immediately—was this a setup to settle scores later?

He hurriedly jumped off the bed and stood at the doorway, full of vigilance: "Wife, don't forget we are talking about other people's business now; you can't associate it with us."

Shi Ran feigned a teeth-gritting expression and ground her teeth, saying: "Why can't I? I haven't had a chance to settle the old score with you yet, and today you just happened to remind me!"

Back then, Yun Qitian had used a pre-recorded message to lure her into a trap!

Although the result was good and the couple was very sweet, Shi Ran would get angry every time she thought about it; she felt her intelligence had been insulted, that she hadn't seen through such a small trick.

The initial passion had faded, and now it was time for a reckoning.

"Whoosh—"

A pillow flew over, followed closely by the quilt, all thrown into Yun Qitian's arms; Shi Ran announced: "Starting from today, you sleep in the guest room, for half a month."

"I won't!"

He refused flatly.

"If you don't go, I will."

"I won't let you go sleep in the guest room either."

Shi Ran glared: "Yun Qitian, I've discovered you aren't as good to me as you used to be; are you trying to rebel?"

In the past, he was obedient to his wife's every word, but now he dared to resist.

"Where there is oppression, there is resistance!" This guy was truly trying to rebel.

Not only did he not apologize, he was even full of excuses: "I just won't go sleep in the guest room, and I won't let you go either; if you threaten me, I'll go back to my in-laws' house and complain to Mother-in-law."

Shi Ran:...

This move was Yun Qitian's trump card.

In the end, of course, they didn't separate; Shi Ran was just scaring him, she didn't really want to be apart.

But she told Wang Yong her husband's idea, and Wang Yong took it to heart.

Liu Min didn't go home late at night and wandered outside.

She still hadn't made up her mind and was still in a state of utter confusion.

There were dozens of missed calls on her phone, all from Wang Yong; she didn't answer—what would she say if she picked up?

If Wang Yong asked her why she didn't go back?

How was she supposed to answer?

Telling the truth didn't seem very good; it was embarrassing.

Telling a lie?

She couldn't lie.

Finally, Wang Yong sent a message: Come back early to rest; I have a blind date tomorrow, I'll find you a godmother.

She went back immediately.

"Bang!"

The door to Wang Yong's bedroom was kicked open; he was already lying down and hurriedly pulled the quilt up to his neck.

"What are you doing?"

Liu Min was furious: "You are not allowed to go on a blind date."

"Why am I not allowed?"

"Not allowed means not allowed, there is no why."

She was her usual overbearing self, not caring who she was to him or what status she had to say such things.

Wang Yong was secretly delighted, but on the surface, he put on a very troubled look: "That probably isn't very good; I've already made an appointment with her, it's not good to stand her up for no reason."

"Just say you have a girlfriend, and it's me." Liu Min blurted out, and only after saying it did she realize how naturally it had come out.

"You agree?" Wang Yong was pleasantly surprised.

"Mm."

The light in the room went out; that night, Liu Min stayed in Wang Yong's room, all night long!

……

Ji Yingjie's Villa.

Shi Youxuan asked her aunt: "Aunt, it has already been three days, have you thought it over?"

The location of the Ji Family Treasure is now known by quite a few people; when too many people know, a secret can no longer be called a secret.

Ji Yingjie wants to move the Ji Family Treasure back to the new Ji Family, but the Ji Family is still in the construction phase, and many security measures are not yet complete.

She worries that problems will arise during the transportation process.

She thought about it for several days without coming up with a foolproof plan, and had no choice but to seek help from her niece, Shi Youxuan.

Shi Youxuan has many clever ideas and always has suggestions that seem simple but are actually twice as effective with half the effort.

Yet this time, her niece's idea did not make her eyes light up; instead, it made her furious!

Shi Youxuan suggested that she only transport a small portion of the Ji Family Treasure back to use for the continued construction of the Ji Family and for daily operations.

As for the majority of the wealth, especially those jewels that make people green with envy, they should all be used to establish schools!

Establish universities in impoverished countries around the world, so that those students who lack the conditions to receive a good education can also receive the best education!

Ji Yingjie nearly jumped up: "Shi Youxuan, has water gotten into your brain? The wealth that our Ji Family has worked so hard for generations to protect with our lives, you want me to take it out to run free universities? On what grounds?"

She knew her aunt would not accept it so quickly.

But if the logic is explained thoroughly, she can still listen.

Shi Youxuan carefully explained the logic to her aunt, letting her see the difference between reality and the past.

In the past, there were many who coveted the Ji Family's wealth, but they could not find the location of the Ji Family, and no one knew where the Ji Family Treasure was hidden, so it could be preserved for generations.

It is different now; although the current location of the Ji Family is very good, it cannot compare to the past.

There are not so many natural barriers, and the location of the Ji Family Treasure has also been exposed.

Now it is just a question of who strikes first.

Although the biggest threat, Zhu Qingrui, is still in a coma, there are still many enemies, both open and hidden, who are coveting the Ji Family Treasure and all want to claim it for themselves.

Have you not had enough of living in fear every day?

Shi Youxuan asked her aunt: "Even if those difficulties can be overcome, it might be fine while you are alive, but can you guarantee that after you die, Kexin will be able to guard so much wealth?"

Kexin is the future Clan Leader, but she is still too young.

Ji Yingjie was struck in her heart, and after a moment of silence, she said: "Aren't there still you all?"

"Who?"

Shi Youxuan did not hold back at all: "Last time we quarreled, I already made it very clear that in the future, I will no longer manage the Ji Family Treasure; I do not want any of it, I renounce my inheritance of the Ji Family Treasure, and I will not bear even a tiny bit of responsibility."
