C24 Here Comes the Trouble

It was supposed to be a very affectionate sentence, but when it came out of Lih Lengjue's mouth, it felt like a domineering CEO had fallen in love with him.

Ji Wanzhi tried her best to hold back her laughter. It would not be good if she did not give face to the CEO.

"With Mr. Lih's words, I am relieved." Aunt Shen, on the other hand, really liked Lih Lengjue's way of doing things. Her furrowed brows also relaxed and revealed a smile.

Ji Wanzhi reminded Aunt Shen a few more times in detail before following Lih Lengjue out of the ward.

Downstairs at the hospital, Lih Lengjue opened the car door for Ji Wanzhi, "Please."

"Director Lih, you are so polite. I am really embarrassed..." Ji Wanzhi smiled at Lih Lengjue. "Thank you for today."

If it was not for Lih Lengjue, Aunt Shen would definitely have asked about the root of the matter today. Other than her own identity not telling Aunt Shen, Ji Wanzhi asked herself that she had never lied to Aunt Shen about anything else.

This was the person who treated her the best other than her family who had already left. She really could not bear to lie to Aunt Shen.

Lih Lengjue touched her head and the evil smile on his lips revealed his thoughts, "In the future, I will be your fiancé."

The man leaned over to her ear and gently exhaled. "Auntie admitted it."

Ji Wanzhi's grateful heart disappeared in an instant. "You wish!"

"Ten days later, everyone knows that you are Lih Lengjue's woman." Lih Lengjue held Ji Wanzhi's hand. He did not care about her struggle and carefully watched her.

Ji Wanzhi's hand was very beautiful. Her fingers were long and clear, her nails were trimmed perfectly, and her fair and clean appearance made people have a good impression of her.

"What happened today?" What was supposed to come still had to come. After a round of laughter, Lih Lengjue's voice clearly became much heavier.

Ji Wanzhi paused for a moment. "It's nothing. I just got cheated by someone."

Lee Chennan knew that she was from the Ji family. If he asked Lih Lengjue to help him deal with Lee Chennan, with Lih Lengjue's means and Lee Chennan's shamelessness, Lee Chennan might directly expose her identity.

To be safe, it was best not to say.

The man gave her a cold glance and said with a slightly displeased tone, "So what if you were cheated by someone?"

"Isn't this a little too much of a scam?" Ji Wanshuang sneered and tried to brush it off. "Look, my mom is so angry that she fainted. How can I not feel guilty?"

It was reasonable to say that, but Lih Lengjue was not someone who was easily fooled.

His eyes, which were as deep as ink, were fixed on her. It was as if cold chains had tightly wrapped around her. "Woman, you are tricking me."

"No, why would I lie to you?" Ji Wanzhi shook her head. Her delicate little face was full of sincerity. "Do you have proof that I lied to you?"

He indeed did not have any evidence. He rushed over in a hurry to worry about her. The investigation results had not come out yet.

Lih Lengjue narrowed his eyes dangerously and raised Ji Wanzhi's chin. "Don't let me know that you are lying to me, otherwise..."

He did not continue to speak but Ji Wanzhi knew that she could not bear the consequences.

"Director Lih, don't worry." Ji Wanzhi could only nod her head.

"Call me husband."

"..."

"Not Hubby, just call me Hubby. " The man thought for a while and kindly changed the way he addressed him. At least he was not that ashamed anymore.

Ji Wanzhi was still hesitating.

Lih Lengjue swept his eyes across her. "It's not like you haven't called me that before."

Alright, back then, in order to anger people, she had indeed called.

The Maybach returned to Charming Empire. After such a long time, it was already afternoon.

Lih Lengjue decided not to go to the company, and instead stayed in the villa with Ji Wanzhi.

To put it nicely, it was to nurture relationships before marriage.

"Director Lih... Do you really not need to go to the company? " Ji Wanzhi felt her blood pressure was a little high as she looked at Lih Lengjue, who was sitting across from her, handling documents with a notebook in his hands.

She sat there and watched the soap opera leisurely, but her boss, the creditor, the boss, and her fiancé, who she had yet to acknowledge, just sat across from her and dealt with the documents with a serious expression.

She even made phone calls from time to time, and her voice was filled with coldness. It was obvious that she was not in a good mood.

Lih Lengjue looked up at her and said gently, "You rest. I will accompany you after I finish dealing with it."

I don't need you to accompany me. This is not how the plot developed, Mr. President!

Ji Wanzhi silently cried in her heart, but she could not stop Lih Lengjue from accompanying her.

When it was close to dinner, someone knocked on the door.

Lih Lengjue frowned slightly. "Uncle Zhao, you have a guest?"

Not everyone could enter Charming Empire, especially those who could enter his villa.

Uncle Zhao stood by the cat's eye and looked at it. He turned his head and had a complicated look on his face. "Sir, Miss Gu is here."

Gu Qing is here?

In Ji Wanzhi's mind, Gu Qing's unruly and unruly look suddenly appeared. She could not help but raise her eyebrows. It seemed that she had received the news and specially ran over.

Lih Lengjue's brows knitted even more tightly, "Let her in."

Even if it was on account of that person in the past, he would not make things too difficult for Gu Qing. As long as Gu Qing did not go overboard.

Uncle Zhao responded and opened the door. "Miss Gu, may I know what business you have with me?"

Gu Qing ignored Uncle Zhao and rushed into the room, looking around.

When she saw Lih Lengjue, her eyes lit up and she ran towards him. "Jue, Gu Qing missed you, so she came to see you!"

There was a delicate and charming look unique to young girls on her obedient face. She ignored Ji Wanzhi, who was sitting opposite of Lih Lengjue, and directly threw herself into Lih Lengjue's arms.

The man's thin lips were pressed into a straight line and he did not move. "Qing, get off me."

"No, Jue has not come to play with Qing for so long. Qing missed you so much. Can you let Qing hug you again?" Gu Qing tightly hugged Lih Lengjue's firm waist and acted like a spoiled child.

In her heart, she cursed Ji Wanzhi thousands of times. It was all because of this vicious woman. She must have not let Jue come to see her. Usually, Jue would at least go to see her once a week.

In the end, it had been almost two weeks and Jue had not come yet.

Today, she received the news that Lih Lengjue was going to hold an engagement banquet with Ji Wanzhi. Gu Qing, who had been anxious all this time, finally could not sit still.

"Qing, you are no longer a child." Lih Lengjue's tone became serious and cold.

Gu Qing's movements froze, then she pouted and came down from Lih Lengjue's body. She said with grievance, "Does Jue feel that Qing is annoying? Jue must not like Qing."

Lih Lengjue pursed his lips and did not speak, but his gaze faintly drifted towards Ji Wanzhi.

From the moment Gu Qing came in and pounced on Lih Lengjue until now when she came down from Lih Lengjue's body, Ji Wanzhi did not say a word. Her legs crossed and she leaned against the soft back of the sofa, watching all of this with a smile on her lips.

Her lazy and casual manner, as if everything in front of her had nothing to do with her.

"Jue, say something. Why didn't you answer Qing? Didn't you promise Ms Manman to take good care of Qing?" Seeing that Lih Lengjue did not speak, Gu Qing could not help but feel somewhat anxious.
