After the divorce, the CEO's ex-wife asked for forgiveness

Ten minutes later.

Xiao Jinglan was led to the hall.

Upon seeing Ji Wuji, she bowed and said, "Greetings, Grandfather!"

"Xiao Jinglan, you've really given birth to a fine son! Your son has ruined my plans once again, and his strength far exceeds my expectations," Ji Wuji said angrily.

Xiao Jinglan nodded expressionlessly, "Jinglan doesn't know."

"Humph!"

Ji Wuji said coldly, "His strength has completely disrupted my plans. Now only you can complete this mission. I'll give you ten days. I want you to kill him."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jinglan was suddenly startled.

Then, still remaining calm, he said, "Even my grandfather is so wary of him, Jinglan is no match for him."

Sudden.

Ji Wuji's expression changed drastically, and he slapped him across the face. "Are you going to disobey my orders?"

"Jinglan wouldn't dare. Jinglan is just telling the truth. His cultivation is far above mine, and I can't kill him." Xiao Jinglan's voice remained unchanged.

Ji Wuji grabbed her hair, his face contorted with rage. "How dare you say that? I planted you as a pawn precisely to catch the Ye family off guard and deliver a fatal blow."

"And you, on the anniversary of Ye Wudi's death, actually went to pay your respects without permission and even stabbed Ye Feng with a sword?"

"Don't think I don't know what you're up to. You're trying to tell Ye Feng that you're not trustworthy either, right?"

“In that case, I won’t send you to assassinate him anymore, will I? You’re such a good mother.”

He grew angrier the more he thought about it; his best piece had just become useless.

Xiao Jinglan's expression changed slightly, but she still shook her head expressionlessly, "I didn't."

"You still dare to be tough?"

Ji Wuji released his grip and warned, "Don't blame me for not giving you a chance. Ye Feng has completely thwarted my plan. He must die. If you help me kill him, I can spare Xiao Beichen and Xiao Chengde. Otherwise, if I do it myself, they will all die."

Xiao Jinglan's expression turned somewhat flustered.

He paused for a moment before saying, "You promised me that as long as I helped you frame Ye Wudi, you would let my son, my brother, and my father go. You broke your promise!"

Ji Wuji said coldly, "I have no intention of going back on my word, but your son is far beyond my expectations. If he doesn't die, my plan cannot succeed. If you don't make a move, I will kill all three of them."

"You're mean."

Xiao Jinglan pulled out a dagger and stabbed him suddenly.

Bang!

Ji Wuji slapped her again, sending her flying. She crashed heavily onto a table, shattering the surface.

She fell to the ground.

"Even if you stab me, you can't kill me. Why bother making things difficult for yourself?"

Ji Wuji slowly walked over and stepped on her face.

"I'll fight you to the death." Xiao Jinglan knew she couldn't kill him, but she still struggled to get up.

However, Ji Wuji kicked out and sent her flying.

"You want to kill me, huh? Fine, I'll give you a chance!"

Ji Wuji took out a bell and shook it gently.

Ring ring ring!

As the bell rang, Xiao Jinglan's face contorted instantly, her eyes turning fierce and manic. She writhed like a maggot, writhing in intense discomfort.

"Ahhh!"

"Kill me, kill me!"

"Mother, please, kill me!"

"..."

She struggled desperately, crying out in despair.

Death, to her, was a blessing, but she couldn't control her body, and even suicide was a luxury.

All they could do was struggle and wail wildly on the ground in excruciating agony.

"You beasts, I'm going to kill you all, kill you all!"

She struggled and cursed, but remained conscious.

After struggling for more than ten minutes, Ji Sha Rong finally said, "Father, Jing Lan will not disobey you anymore. Please let her go for now."

"Humph!"

"Let's let him off the hook for now."

Seeing that Xiao Jinglan would soon die if the torture continued, Ji Wuji finally stopped.

Ring ring ring!

After the bell rang a few times, Xiao Jinglan finally stopped struggling.

At that moment, she was almost half dead; if it had been another ten minutes or so, she probably would have really died.

"Xiao Jinglan, if you want to blame someone, blame your son. He forced me to do this."

"As you know, I saved you when you and your son were being hunted down by various families. I also know that you secretly hid him, and I even know where you hid him. If I wanted to kill him, he would have died twenty years ago."

"But I never expected that after twenty years, he would grow so powerful that even I have to be afraid of him."

After saying that, he grabbed Xiao Jinglan's hair and pulled her head up. "Now you have two choices. First, if you do it for me, it will only take one person to die."

"Secondly, if I were to take action, not only would your good son die, but your brother, your father, and even the entire Xiao family would be buried with you."

"You know my capabilities; I mean what I say."

At this moment, Xiao Jinglan's expression was chaotic, and her body was still trembling uncontrollably.

After a moment's pause, she nodded. "Okay, I'll kill him. I can kill him."

"That's right. If you had agreed earlier, you wouldn't have had to suffer like this."

Ji Wuji said, "You have already revealed your identity, so killing Ye Feng will not be so easy. I will devise a plan for you, and you just need to follow the plan. However, I must remind you."

"You have been poisoned by my Gu, and no one in the world can cure you, not even your good son. If you dare to disobey me, you know the consequences."

"Of course, I know you're not afraid of death, but if you dare to disobey me, the entire Xiao family will be buried with you. You'd better think it through."

Xiao Jinglan stood up shakily and nodded, "Jinglan wouldn't dare."

"I know you wouldn't dare."

Ji Wuji waved his hand, "Go back and reflect on your actions!"

"Yes!"

Xiao Jinglan nodded, then slowly walked out, her body weak.

Ji Sha Rong followed her out, and once outside the door, she quickly helped Xiao Jing Lan up.

“Jinglan, you can’t win against your grandfather. Don’t disobey his orders anymore, understand? Otherwise, even your mother can’t save you,” she advised.

"Pooh!"

Xiao Jinglan spat in her face, "Disgusting old thing, don't pretend to be kind to me. One day, my son will kill you and wipe out your Ji family."

"Sigh, you are my flesh and blood, and I am only doing this for your own good," Ji Sha Rong said bitterly.

"Haha."

Xiao Jinglan stopped and glared at Ji Sha Rong, saying, "You even killed your own son. Wasn't my eldest brother killed by you? My second brother's wife and children also died at your hands. Don't pretend to be merciful to me. I find it disgusting."

Ji Sha Rong said angrily, "How can you blame me? If your eldest brother had been obedient, how could I have been willing to kill him? And your second brother is no better. He wanted to kill me to avenge your eldest brother, do you know that? I only killed his wife and children and spared his life. I have already shown him mercy."
