Quick Wear: Domineering System on Your Own
Chapter 181 True and Fake Gold 9
Ever since Meng Qian married into the Ji family, her mother was worried that she would not be able to adapt. Therefore, she often asked Ling Jiu and Ji Yue to accompany her, hoping that she could integrate into the family as soon as possible.
As for Ji Yue, she always smiled when she saw Meng Qian, trying to gain her favor. However, Meng Qian was not a naive person, and she knew everything in her heart.
She had already heard about what happened at the banquet. Ji Yue had once pushed her sister into the water, an incident that clearly demonstrated her deep scheming nature. Furthermore, after spending time with her these past few days, Meng Qian had also keenly noticed that Ji Yue's father and mother's preference for Ling Jiu was even more pronounced. For someone as scheming as Ji Yue, Meng Qian merely feigned compliments, putting on a polite smile, but she had never considered developing a close relationship with her.
Ji Yue naturally noticed Meng Qian's perfunctory attitude and was very unhappy. The corners of her mouth drooped slightly, and a trace of resentment flashed in her eyes. She took advantage of the fact that Ji's mother was away and deliberately made things difficult for Meng Qian from time to time.
At night, Ji Xun returned home from get off work. As they were about to rest, Meng Qian quietly told Ji Xun about how Ji Yue had troubled her during the day. There was a hint of grievance in her tone, and a hint of loss in her eyes: "Yueyue doesn't seem to like me very much."
Ji Xun smiled: "How could that be? She often whispers in my ear that you treat her very well and she wants to prepare a gift for you."
"But..." Meng Qian frowned slightly.
Before she could finish her words, Ji Xun interrupted her and said, "Don't think too much. Go to bed early!" Then he lay down on his side.
Lingjiu noticed that Meng Qian had been absent-minded recently, with his eyes often blank. He knew in his heart that it had something to do with Ji Yue.
She then whispered in Meng Qian's ear: "Ji Yue is a person who is two-faced. She pretends to be well-behaved in front of others, but has other plans behind the scenes. She is very good at making big brother happy. You should have seen many people like her. And I will tell you a secret. She is not a biological child of the Ji family, so you don't have to show mercy." After that, Ling Jiu left gracefully.
Meng Qian stood there for a long time. She was shocked by Ji Yue's life experience. Then her eyes gradually became firm and her mind was filled with thoughts.
A few days later, she felt unwell and her period was late. With a nervous heart, her eyes filled with anxiety and anticipation, she secretly took a test, and sure enough, she was pregnant. Suddenly, a plan began to take shape in her mind.
One day, Ji Yue asked Meng Qian to go to the greenhouse to pick roses. Meng Qian agreed, but unexpectedly fainted in the greenhouse. If the servants hadn't discovered her by chance, the consequences would have been disastrous.
When Ji Xun learned that Meng Qian had fainted, his face turned pale. He was extremely worried and rushed to the hospital immediately. Upon arriving, he saw Ji's parents with stern faces, their eyes filled with anger and dissatisfaction, staring intently at Ji Yue. Ji Yue stood by, secretly wiping away tears, her eyes red and her nose slightly red, looking pitiful.
"How is Qianqian? Why did she suddenly faint?" Ji Xun strode forward and asked anxiously, his forehead covered with sweat and his eyes full of panic.
Mother Ji couldn't help but snort coldly, frowning. "It's your good sister who insisted on picking roses in such hot weather. She didn't want to go herself, but insisted on ordering Xiao Qian around. Did you know that Xiao Qian is pregnant? How on earth do you take care of your wife?"
"If the servants hadn't discovered it in time, Xiao Qian and the baby in her belly might have been..." Mother Ji's voice trembled slightly, full of fear, and her lips turned a little pale.
"What! Pregnant!" Ji Xun seemed to be hit by this sudden news. She felt a little dizzy for a moment, her body shook, and her eyes were full of shock and surprise.
"So how is Qianqian now? What did the doctor say?" Ji Xun tried to calm himself down and continued to ask, his hands unconsciously clenched.
"The doctor told you to get more rest and not to overwork. Xiao Qian hasn't woken up yet, so put your company's affairs aside for now and stay by her side." said Ji's mother.
After saying that, Ji's mother's gaze shot towards Ji Yue again like a sharp arrow: "What on earth are you thinking? Doesn't your sister-in-law treat you well? Today I found out that since your sister-in-law married into the Ji family, you have been ordering her to do work behind her back. What's the matter? Is your family short of servants?" Ji's mother's eyes were sharp, as if she wanted to see through Ji Yue.
Ji Yue hurriedly shook her head, her eyes full of fear and innocence, and explained anxiously: "No, I just asked my sister-in-law for a small favor occasionally. I really didn't know that my sister-in-law was pregnant." She pretended to be extremely aggrieved on her face, but secretly cursed in her heart: This damn Meng Qian, she got pregnant so quickly.
Hearing Ji's mother's scolding, Ji Xun suddenly remembered that Meng Qian had confided to him some time ago that Ji Yue disliked her. He didn't believe it at that time, but now Meng Qian was in the hospital because of these things.
He was filled with regret, his eyes dim and gloomy, and he only hated himself for blindly favoring Ji Yue, which led to the current situation. Meng Qian must be extremely disappointed in himself.
He slowly turned his head and looked at Ji Yue with disappointment in his eyes. His eyes were cold and icy: "Yue Yue, you really went too far this time. Qian Qian is the one I love, and I hope I can respect her more in the future. Do you understand?"
Ji Yue's body trembled violently, and she took two steps back unconsciously. Her face turned pale, and tears welled up in her eyes. Ji Xun had never said harsh words to her before, but this was the first time, and the reason was for another woman.
"I understand, brother, I know I was wrong." Ji Yue's voice trembled slightly, and tears slid down her cheeks.
Time passed slowly, and soon after, the doctor gently pushed open the door of the ward and said calmly: "The patient has woken up, you can come in."
Upon hearing this, Ji Xun immediately broke into a trot and hurried into the ward. His eyes were fixed on Meng Qian, who lay quietly on the bed, her face slightly pale. Ji Xun's heart felt as if it was being tightly grasped by an invisible hand, and an indescribable discomfort surged in his heart.
He quickly walked to the bedside, slowly squatted down, reached out and gently held Meng Qian's hand. The hand was slightly cold. His voice was full of guilt and self-blame: "Qianqian, I'm sorry, it's all my fault. I shouldn't have not believed you. I should have noticed your grievance earlier. I neglected your feelings."
Meng Qian twitched the corners of his mouth slightly, trying to reveal a comforting smile, but that smile was a little weak: "I don't blame you, it's my own body that's why I suddenly fainted and made everyone worried."
Ji Xun shook his head after hearing this, and the hair on his forehead swayed with it: "No, it's not your health that's the problem. It's me who failed to fulfill my responsibility to take care of you. From now on, I will be by your side wholeheartedly, taking good care of you, and will not let you get hurt again."
At this time, Lingjiu stood quietly outside the ward door, and inadvertently caught a glimpse of Ji Yue's face. She had a frown on her face, and her eyes were full of viciousness and unwillingness.
A thought flashed through Lingjiu's mind: Otherwise, let's just get rid of her!
