C41 Who Was Feeling Heartache for Who.
Under the bright sun, I can feel the cold because your eyes are freezing my heart.
"I... I... Ji Li dodged Ji Ye's gaze and did not know what to say. She just stood there, stuttering.
If she told him the truth, she would definitely tell him everything that happened last night. Actually, it was not a big deal even if she told him the truth about the wound at the corner of her mouth. She just accidentally fell on Yixi. However, he couldn't tell the truth about other things. Once he told the truth, more things would be involved.
"Speak, Ji Li. What's with the corner of your mouth? Don't tell me it was also the table that you knocked on?"
Ji Xue also joined in the interrogation. Her goal was to get her uncle to teach Ji Li a lesson. Her uncle had never liked her. Now that such a thing had happened, he definitely would not let her off easily. Ji Yixi, you can ignore me, but can you resist my uncle? Ji Xue stole a glance at Ji Yixi complacently!
Ji Li forcefully twisted her hands and bit her lips. She lowered her head and there was sweat on her forehead. Her entire body was trembling.
"I..."
"That's enough already." Ji Yixi put down the knife and fork heavily. With a clang, a loud sound rang out in the already tense restaurant.
He got up and walked in front of Ji Li. He smiled brightly and said, "Silly. Tell me the truth. We kissed and took photos, just like this." He planted a kiss on the corner of her mouth.
Ji Li was already nervous and thought that he was here to help her. She did not expect him to do this. Was he helping her or harming her?
"No, no, it's not like that. Mr Yixi, tell your uncle that it's not like this." Ji Li shook her head. Why did he misinterpret the situation? Looking at her uncle's eyes that were about to turn into ice, she felt a sharp pain in her heart.
Everyone in the restaurant was stunned. Ji Xue stared at Ji Li hatefully. Ji Yixi actually kissed her in front of the crowd. Jealousy and hatred were all directed towards Ji Li. Even in front of her uncle, she could not pretend anymore.
Ji Ye narrowed his eyes. The fury that was brewing in his eyes was brewing. Were they declaring war on him?
Ji Yixi laughed mockingly. "Do you think they will believe you if you explain? Idiot." It was obvious that Ji Xue wanted to mess with her on purpose. No matter how she tried to explain it, it was useless. It was better to do what she wanted. Anyway, he had nothing to be afraid of. His life would not be controlled by others.
"Uncle, I really did not. It was not a small accident." Ji Li did not pay attention to Ji Yixi and just explained to Ji Ye. She did not want to be misunderstood.
Ji Ye looked at her coldly. He looked at her with more disgust, disdain, and anger.
"It's almost time. Let's go to school first. Ji Li, I'll send you there today." Ji Ye said in a deep voice. His calm expression made people's hair stand on end.
" Huh? Okay. " Ji Li froze for a moment and replied. She knew that her uncle had already put all the blame on her alone.
Ji Yixi quickly held her hand. "Uncle, you are so busy. Let Ji Li go with us. Ji Xue. Let's go." He would not let her go. Everyone could guess. Taking Ji Li away was to denounce her. According to his uncle's personality, he would not just casually ask questions. No one could predict what he would do. Go, he would only get hurt. And he... He definitely wouldn't let her get hurt. Even if he disobeyed his uncle...
"Ji Yixi. Do you still have me, your uncle, in your eyes?"
A furious shout reverberated in the dining hall. Ji Ye's aura was thick, and his sword-like eyebrows slanted into sharp arrows. Ji Yixi stopped his steps and refused to turn back. He also refused to let go, and just like that, they were stuck in a stalemate.
That was why everyone was shocked. Sir had never been so angry. He was cold, but he would never lose his temper. He had always been elegant. This was the first time he had ever let out such restrained anger.
Ji Xue was also shocked. She did not think that everything she had planned would involve Yixi in the center of the storm.
She walked to Ji Yixi's side and tried to persuade him, "Uncle said he wanted to see you off. Don't argue with him. Let's go first."
Ji Yixi coldly looked at her. "Get lost. Don't touch me."
Ji Xue's face could not stand it. She blushed and looked at Ji Ye. She felt wronged and started to cry, "Uncle." She ran towards Ji Ye and threw herself into his arms.
