Master Zhan, your daughter has gone out to catch ghosts again.

Chapter 48: Sister-in-law Meets Sister-in-law

"What are you looking at?"

Wen Zijin was lost in thought when a voice, gentle to the extreme, came from behind her.

Turning my head, I saw it was the Law of Eras.

Ji Yuanlu is a gentle and refined man with outstanding abilities. He is the founder of Tianwang Entertainment.

King Entertainment is the world's largest talent agency, and all the artists it signs are top-tier actors and actresses. Even newcomers can become famous worldwide within a short period of time.

"It's nothing. You can go to the celebration banquet by yourself. I won't go." Wen Zijin turned and left.

Ji Yuanlu followed closely beside her, his long legs keeping pace with hers, shoulder to shoulder, keeping in step. "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

"No." Wen Zijin shook her head.

"Then why not go? I've already told them I'll be bringing a female companion. If you don't go, I'll lose face."

Wen Zijing glanced at Ji Yuanlu, and helplessly went.

Ji Yuanlu treated her very well, almost always granting her requests, and also helped her a lot during their student days.

He also helped me a lot during this trip back to China.

He was in trouble, so naturally she had to help him.

At the celebration banquet

At the main table sat the investors, the director, Jin Xiqi, and some other business tycoons.

Zhan Luya went back with Zhan Weiguo and Qin Yimo and did not attend the celebration banquet.

She felt ashamed for not winning the championship, because she had made a bold statement in front of many people that the championship would definitely be hers.

Now that he's been proven wrong, he doesn't dare to deceive himself anymore, so he simply won't attend the victory celebration banquet.

Zhan Guiting did not reveal his identity; he only attended the celebration banquet as a friend of Jin Xi, so he was not at the same table as them.

As the patron, Ji Yuanlu sat with Wen Zijin at the head of the table.

The bigwigs all offered toasts, and Ji Yuanlu drank them all. After drinking a lot, he would just glance at Wen Zijin.

They didn't even stop me.

That woman is truly ruthless.

Wen Zijin's mind wasn't on the food or Ji Yuanlu, but rather on Jin Xi.

Jinxi was either chatting with the bigwigs or drinking and pouring drinks, completely unaware that Wen Zijin was staring at him.

Wen Zijin suddenly let out a self-deprecating sneer.

So, he still prefers this type.

"What's wrong?" Ji Yuanlu leaned down and whispered softly in Wen Zijin's ear.

Wen Zijin felt a warm breath inside her ear and smelled a strong odor of alcohol.

"Drink less," Wen Zijin said, frowning.

Ji Yuanlu smiled contentedly.

Finally, they're starting to care about themselves.

"Is this Mr. Ji's girlfriend?"

“No!” Wen Zijin denied it outright.

Jinxi noticed Wen Zijin.

Ji Yuanlu smiled. "Not now, but soon."

Wen Zijin glared at Ji Yuanlu, picked up her wine glass, and downed it in one gulp.

"Sigh..." Ji Yuanlu wanted to stop it, but it was too late.

"Forehead……"

After drinking the strong liquor, Wen Zijin suddenly felt a sharp pain in her stomach.

"What's wrong?" Ji Yuanlu put his arm around her waist, his long eyebrows furrowed, looking very worried.

"Go to the hospital." Ji Yuanlu put down his wine glass.

"It's nothing, I'm just going to the restroom." Wen Zijin clutched her stomach and went to the restroom.

The moment Wen Zijin turned around, Jin Xi noticed a splash of red on her skirt.

It wasn't obvious; you couldn't see it at all unless you looked closely. But Jinxi saw it.

She got her period.

I had to leave today, so I went to buy sanitary napkins and went to the restroom.

She didn't know which cubicle Wen Zijin was in, so she had to knock on each one one by one.

"Who?"

They knocked on the innermost cubicle, and a wary and hostile voice came from inside.

"Um, this is Jinxi. I just noticed you've started your period. You might need this."

Jinxi handed the sanitary napkin inside from below.

Wen Zijing was stunned for a moment before she reacted, took the gift, and awkwardly thanked him, "Thank you."

"You're welcome," Imani replied with a smile.

Wen Zijin had mixed feelings.

After a long while, she finally came out of the toilet and washed her hands with running water.

Suddenly, Jinxi walked in, carrying a bowl of soup.

Wen Zijin frowned.

Who would be so kind as to bring food into the toilet?!

"Okay, drink this. This is brown sugar water I just made. It will help with menstrual cramps a lot." Jinxi smiled like a little angel and handed the bowl to Wen Zijin.

Wen Zijin took the drink, tilted his head back, and downed it. He wiped his mouth roughly like a rough man and asked, "Do you know Zhan Guiting?"

"Yes, I know him. Do you know him too?"

“That happened a long time ago.” Wen Zijin dried her hands.

Imanishi nodded.

Wen Zijing looked at Jin Xi and finally mustered up the courage to ask, "What is your relationship with him?"

She knew that the answer she would likely receive would be that she was his woman and the mother of his child.

"It's nothing, I just met his daughter and that's how we got to know each other," Jinxi said with a smile.

Wen Zijin narrowed his eyes.

Don't you recognize me?

Has Zhan Guiting been possessed by some demon or monster? He doesn't even bother to look at strangers, so why would he bother sending them flowers?

"Aren't you her wife?"

Jinxi seemed to have heard the most outrageous joke, laughing so hard she couldn't stand up straight. "How could that be? I've been single for eighteen years."

Wen Zijin then realized that it was a misunderstanding.

However, he was certain that Zhan Guiting had a daughter.

As for whether he is her biological son, that still needs to be investigated.

"Don't tell him you know me."

Wen Zijin's eyes suddenly flashed with a warning, and she turned to leave.

Just as Jinxi was about to ask why, she suddenly fainted without warning.

No, you're already dizzy?

"Hey……"

Jinxi tried to shake her awake, but found that her whole body was burning hot, as if she had a fever.

There's no other way; if you're going to do a good deed, you might as well see it through to the end.

Jinxi greeted the investors and left early.

The wealthy patrons were determined to keep him, so Ji Yuanlu stepped in to resolve the crisis for her.

Jinxi almost wanted to hand Wen Zijin over to Ji Yuanlu, but then she remembered that Wen Zijin had said they weren't in a romantic relationship, so she gave up on the idea.

Jinxi didn't know where Wen Zijin lived, so she could only take him back to her own home.

Back home, Jinxi tried to cool Wen Zijin down with physical methods. During this time, Jinxi noticed a large hole in her arm, which looked like a gunshot wound.

Jinxi thought about it and realized that she was definitely not a simple person.

Soon, Wen Zijin's fever subsided.

Jinxi went back to her room, washed up, and went to sleep.

In the middle of the night, Wen Zijin suddenly woke up.

Finding himself in an unfamiliar place, he initially thought it was Ji Yuanlu's house, but after searching for a long time, he couldn't find any trace of Ji Yuanlu. Finally, he entered a bedroom and saw the champion girl lying on the bed, fast asleep.

Wen Zijin left a bank card worth ten million yuan on her bedside table and then left.
