Li Zhai.

Li Zhengying, Xiao Tongyu, Ji Yunze, Ji Yunyao and Li Ren sat together at the round dining table.

The table was filled with delicious dishes, including grilled lamb chops, chicken stewed in clay pot, raw beef tartare, chickpea curry, etc., which were dazzling.

However, the five people present looked at each other. This didn't feel like a warm family dinner at all, but more like a war that was about to break out.

"Ahem," Li Zhengying coughed softly, "Why is no one picking up their chopsticks?"

Li Ren crossed his arms and stared at Ji Yunze: "Someone is afraid that we will poison you."

Ji Yunyao interrupted and said, “If I didn’t go to jail for poisoning people, my brother would have been poisoned to death by me long ago.”

Seeing that the conversation was already started, Xiao Tongyu quickly asked, "Why? Was Ji Yunze very mean to you when he was a child?"

Speaking of this, Ji Yunyao was so angry that she couldn't even speak: "Sister-in-law, do you think he looks like a good person? When I was four years old, my dad asked him to teach me how to swim, but he kicked me into the swimming pool. I saw God when I was struggling in the water!"

Ji Yunze's face was calm, and he opened his thin lips: "Didn't you learn it?"

Just as she was about to swear, Ji Yunyao looked at Li Zhengying embarrassedly and decided to control her temper. She couldn't lose face for the Ji family here.

Li Zhengying changed the subject: "Eat, President Ji, try our Middle Eastern grilled lamb chops. Mrs. Wu's cooking skills are pretty good."

"Thank you, Master Li."

Ji Yunze raised his chopsticks, and Xiao Tongyu patted his arm: "Use your hands."

Ji Yunze frowned, looking disgusted. What does "with your hands" mean? Grab it with your bare hands?

Xiao Tongyu noticed the man's mysophobia, so he took out a tissue from the table, wrapped the long bone of the lamb chop in it and handed it to him.

Li Ren, who was sitting across the table, looked unhappy: "Tongtong, you are too good to him."

Ji Yunyao agreed: "Tsk tsk, my brother might have been Ultraman in his previous life and saved the earth."

Li Zhengying looked at them calmly for a while, and suddenly said, "Boss Ji, after dinner, can you come to my study?"

Ji Yunze sat up straight and nodded slightly: "Okay, Master Li."

Ji Yunyao smiled strangely, turned her head and asked Li Ren, "Is your grandfather ready to take action?"

Li Ren snorted, "It's best to beat him up so hard that he forgets his last name."

After the meal, Ji Yunze got up and followed Li Zhengying to the study. Xiao Tongyu sat at the dining table and looked at their backs with some trepidation.

"Grandpa, what are you doing? Why are you so serious?"

Ji Yunyao forked a piece of cantaloupe on the table and stuffed it into her mouth: "Sister-in-law, you have nothing to worry about. My brother won't die."

Li Ren leaned towards Xiao Tongyu and swept his sharp eyes across her face.

"Tongtong, have you thought it through?"

Just now on the way here, Li Ren learned from Xiao Tongyu that she agreed to Ji Yunze's proposal, and his face has been not very good. He couldn't understand, with Xiao Tongyu's current conditions, she could find any man, why did she look for a domineering and unreasonable man like Ji Yunze?

Xiao Tongyu burst out laughing: "Brother, you have asked me many times."

After saying that, she pushed Ji Yunyao: "Yaoyao, why don't you speak up for Ji Yunze?"

Ji Yunyao's cheeks were bulging with cantaloupe, and she looked as if it had nothing to do with her.

"Sister-in-law, I stand for reason, not relatives. I think many men are better than my brother. At best, he is rich and handsome, but what's the use? Money, you have it, do you care? Handsome, that's all, everyone will get tired of it."

Xiao Tongyu complained in her heart, aren’t you with my brother just because he’s handsome?

Li Ren was unhappy after hearing this. He pinched Ji Yunyao's face with one hand and turned it towards himself. The force was so great that Ji Yunyao almost spit out the cantaloupe in her mouth.

She yelled incoherently: "What are you doing?!"

"Ji Yunyao, are you tired of me? Come on, explain it clearly."

Xiao Tongyu ignored their fight. She held her chin and looked upstairs, still feeling uneasy.

She stammered, speaking in a voice that only she could hear:

"I know there are many good men in this world, but what can I do? I only like Ji Yunze."

……

In the study, Li Zhengying sat at the desk. He lit the cigar in his mouth and handed the cigar box to Ji Yunze.

"Would Mr. Ji like one?"

"it is good."

Ji Yunze took out a cigarette, played with it in his hand, but did not light it.

He was a little uneasy, not knowing what Li Zhengying wanted to say to him. Anything that could make him emotionally unstable was always related to Xiao Tongyu.

Li Zhengying blew out a puff of smoke and slowly said, "I heard that the girl agreed to Mr. Ji's proposal?"

Ji Yunze nodded: "Yes, Master Li. I originally wanted to make an appointment with you to visit with my parents."

There was always a smile on Li Zhengying's lips, but there was no smile in his eyes.

"Boss Ji, have you thought it through?"

"Master Li, I know that what I did before was outrageous, and I have reflected deeply on it. As long as Master Li agrees to marry Tongtong to me, I will agree to any request."

Li Zhengying leaned back in his chair, his eyes fixed, "Can you agree to any request?"

"Yes."

Li Zhengying took out a small sheepskin folder from the drawer of the desk, which contained two A4 papers printed with text.

"I checked. President Ji now holds 60% of Ji's shares." Master Li put his cigar on the side of the ashtray and raised his head. "I asked a lawyer to draft a transfer agreement to transfer all of Ji's shares to the girl."

Ji Yunze's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he lowered his head to glance at the documents in front of him.

After a long silence, a faint and cold smile appeared on his lips, almost imperceptible.

"it is good."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Yunze took out a pen and a seal from his suit pocket. Without hesitation, he signed his name and stamped it next to it.

Li Zhengying's eyes flickered slightly, and the trembling was like a light feather touching water, making it difficult to detect.

"Mr. Ji, don't you regret it?"

"What belongs to Tongtong is mine. When Master Li is free next week, you can bring a lawyer to Ji's and we can go through the formalities."

Li Zhengying chuckled and said, "If you get divorced, Tongtong's things won't be yours anymore."

"Master Li, you're overthinking it. We won't get divorced unless I die, and Tongtong will be a widower."

Ji Yunze faced Li Zhengying's scrutiny calmly, his expression proud but without a trace of hesitation.

Li Zhengying was somewhat moved. He put away the folder and said, "Leave this here for safekeeping. If I hear that Tongtong has been wronged by you one day, I will go and do it immediately."

The man raised the corner of his lips slightly: "That day will never come."

Li Zhengying picked up the cigar again and sighed: "You know Tongtong, she suffered a lot of grievances after her parents passed away, but she worked hard to grow up to be a brave, kind and lovable child. I admit that I owed her too much before, but I must give her enough protection in her future life. I hope President Ji understands."

Ji Yunze said respectfully: "I know. Master Li, just call me by my name."

Li Zhengying nodded in agreement: "Yunze, I feel relieved to leave the girl to you, but I hope you can change your temper. At least don't treat the girl the same way as before and don't let her suffer any more grievances."

Ji Yunze's expression was motionless, but it made people feel that he was more serious than ever before.

"I will, don't worry, Master Li."

The two were silent for a while, and Li Zhengying took out two things from the drawer of the desk.

"This is the girl's ID card and household registration booklet, Yunze, keep them."

Ji Yunze certainly knew what Li Zhengying meant. He reached out to take it and felt the weight in his hand was heavier than ever before.

"Master Li, I won't let you down."
