“What did you say?” Fang Xiaonuan asked through gritted teeth.

“Ah, I said that your parents wanted you to come and visit. Unfortunately, I scolded them and chased them away,” Feng Qi said triumphantly. She was just relishing what she was saying. Earlier, she had not been very polite but she also did not chase them away.

Fang Xiaonuan kicked Feng Qi in the stomach. Everyone was stunned. Feng Qi fell to the ground. The servants quickly went forward. One held Fang Xiaonuan back, and the other helped Feng Qi up. Another quickly went to inform the men at home.

Everyone in the Ji family knew one thing. The two young ladies of the Ji family were not on good terms. The two of them would quarrel almost immediately when they met. However, no one expected that the two of them would actually fight this time.

Fang Xiaonuan pushed away the servant who was blocking her and went forward to fight with Feng Qi. Feng Qi clawed at Fang Xiaonuan like crazy, and Fang Xiaonuan’s mind was only filled with what Feng Qi had said just now. The two of them were in a fierce fight.

Fang Xiaonuan thought that she would be fine with being mistreated. For the sake of the family’s business, she had married a man she did not know. Not only was she living a miserable life, but now her parents were also suffering.

Her eyes reddened, and she once again pinned Feng Qi down on the ground.

Old Master Ji was the first to hear the commotion. He immediately rushed over, and when he saw the two people fighting, he ordered the servants to separate them. The few servants did not dare to go forward, and the two Ji brothers who happened to hear the commotion entered the house at the same time. When they saw Fang Xiaonuan push Feng Qi to the ground, they hurriedly ran over.

His little wife’s explosive strength shocked Ji Lingchen once again. He did not expect that not only did she have a vicious mouth, but she was also ruthless. Ji Lingchen ran over and directly picked up his wife, who was already beating someone up. Ji Kangde also hurriedly helped his wife up, who was lying on the ground. With a worried expression, he asked, “Feng Qi, are you okay?”

Ji Lingchen felt the girl in his arms trembling and crying. Her boiling hot tears fell onto the back of his hand.

Old Master Ji roared, “This is crazy! They’re all f*cking crazy!” Old Master Ji was furious. Everyone knew that someone was going to suffer.

Feng Qi’s confidant immediately said to Old Master Ji, “Master, it was second young madam who hit first young madam earlier. We all watched from the sidelines. We can all testify to it.”

Fang Xiaonuan broke free from Ji Lingchen’s hold and glared at him. “This is what you wanted to see, right?”

“Old Master Ji, I won’t let the matter of my parents being mistreated today go to waste,” Fang Xiaonuan said to Old Master Ji. She did not even call him father anymore. Instead, she called him Old Master Ji, which made him slightly unhappy.

Fang Xiaonuan walked towards the ruined gifts on the ground. Some of the boxes had been ruined by Feng Qi. With tears in her eyes, she carried a few of them upstairs to her bedroom. Seeing that something was wrong, Ji Lingchen immediately followed her upstairs.

Although Old Master Ji was furious, he could tell that something was wrong. He pointed at the gift boxes on the floor and asked the butler beside him, “What happened?”

The butler glanced at Feng Qi and said, “Today, Mr. and Mrs. Fang missed the second young master’s wife, so they came to visit. It was the first young master’s wife who received them.” The butler was a smart person. There were some things that he did not know. Although he could guess at what happened, he only said what he knew.

Old Master Ji looked at Feng Qi, who had been beaten black and blue by Fang Xiaonuan. “What did you do?”

Feng Qi narrowed his eyes and saw the anger in her father-in-law’s eyes. She was a little scared. Ever since Fang Xiaonuan entered the house, the Ji family had not been peaceful.

Fang Xiaonuan returned to the bedroom. She wiped the gifts that her parents had brought and placed them in the corner. Ji Lingchen then entered the room and asked, “What happened between you and sister-in-law?”

Fang Xiaonuan ignored Ji Lingchen and went to the bathroom to wash her face. She only came out after ten minutes. During this time, Ji Lingchen had been quietly sitting on the sofa, waiting for her to come out. Ji Lingchen saw that she did not want to bother with him, so he got up and left.

Ji Lingchen went back downstairs and called for the maid who had spoken first. She was the one who had immediately reported that Fang Xiaonuan had hit her when she saw Old Master Ji appear.

Ji Lingchen looked down at the obedient maid and asked in a cold voice, “Who attacked first?”

“It really was second young madam who attacked first. Young master, many people saw it just now. It was indeed the second young madam who attacked the first young madam,” the maid replied nervously.

There was no doubt that the servants of the Ji family were afraid of Ji Lingchen. Although he was not at home all year round, the servants in the family understood his temper completely. They all knew that he was cold and ruthless. No one could do anything to him. He could even defy Old Master Ji. No one dared to provoke him.
