Married to My Ex-Fiancé's Cousin-Chapter 35 One Million_1

Gu Xinran couldn’t stand Ji Yunhuan’s arrogant attitude any longer. "You despicable woman, we should let Qi Cheng see you now and show him your true face beneath that pitiful facade. Do you really think you’re so incredible? How dare you speak to my mom like that? Even Qi Cheng treats my mom with respect."

"Shut up." Mrs. Gu coldly interrupted Gu Xinran, forbidding her from continuing.

The more Gu Xinran spoke, the angrier Ji Yunhuan became, and the higher the price she would have to pay.

"Mom, what are you afraid of her for? With Qi Cheng’s personality, he wouldn’t like such a vicious woman..."

Smack. A slap interrupted Gu Xinran’s voice.

The room fell silent. Gu Yubai and Ouyang Fei widened their eyes in bewilderment. Why would Mrs. Gu hit Gu Xinran?

Mrs. Gu loved her daughter the most and despised Ji Yunhuan to the extreme. But now she hit Gu Xinran for Ji Yunhuan. It was so unlike her!

The most shocked was Gu Xinran.

Before the fall of the Ji Family, she always had to bow to Ji Yunhuan, and Mrs. Gu didn’t allow her to oppose Ji Yunhuan.

But secretly, to make up for it, Mrs. Gu would always buy her lots of nice things to appease her.

Now, her mother hit her for Ji Yunhuan.

"Mom, are you crazy? Why would you hit me for this despicable woman..."

Smack!

Another slap.

Mrs. Gu hit her mercilessly.

She glared at Gu Xinran, her heart aching terribly. If not for Ji Yunhuan’s threat, how could she bear to slap her own daughter? "I told you to shut up."

She just hoped Gu Xinran would say less at this moment. But Gu Xinran, so proud and always pampered, was slapped twice by her mother and told to shut up. It was impossible.

She angrily said, "I won’t shut up. Hit me! Kill me for all I care, all for Ji Yunhuan, you actually..."

Smack!

Gu Xinran was on the verge of breakdown. "You hit me for her?"

She thought her mother had gone mad.

The more she protested, the harder Mrs. Gu slapped her.

Even Gu Yubai couldn’t stand it anymore. "Mom, you can’t..."

Ji Yunhuan shot him a fierce glare, and he felt guilty for a moment.

He wasn’t certain what made Ji Yunhuan so commanding that his mother would listen to her, but... it couldn’t be just because of Qi Cheng. Given the Gu Family’s current power, they could maintain their status even without Qi Cheng.

After several slaps, Gu Xinran finally realized Mrs. Gu’s determination and said nothing more. She only glared at Ji Yunhuan with hatred.

Ji Yunhuan still sat there calmly, unmoved by the scene before her.

Mrs. Gu had also slapped enough. She turned back, swallowing her anger and asked, "Now, are you satisfied, Ms. Ji?"

Ji Yunhuan clapped her hands. "Aunt Gu, what a good job. Well done."

To appease her, Mrs. Gu had really gone all out.

"About Chenchen, that was our fault. I hope Ms. Ji won’t hold on to the past." Mrs. Gu’s sincere attitude made others in the room sure that Ji Yunhuan had leverage over her.

Ouyang Fei, who had been quietly standing aside, finally snapped out of her shock and couldn’t help but say righteously, "Sister Yunhuan, this is too much. No matter what, Aunt Gu is an elder. How could you treat her like this?"

"Who asked you to interfere?" Ji Yunhuan glared at Ouyang Fei coldly.

Ouyang Fei said, "I shouldn’t speak up, and I am afraid of you. But what you’re doing is wrong."

"Oh right, disciplining Gu Xinran is wrong. Then what about you? When you seduced Gu Yubai, was that right?" Ji Yunhuan stood up, looking directly at Ouyang Fei’s righteous face.

Ouyang Fei, accustomed to playing the good person in various situations, was the epitome of a white lotus. It was precisely this that allowed her to seduce Gu Yubai.

Ji Yunhuan’s words left Ouyang Fei’s face stiff and embarrassed, and Gu Yubai fell silent.

Ouyang Fei clenched her fists and mustered the courage. "I was wrong to be with Brother Yubai. But at least I love him more, don’t I? When he got into trouble, you didn’t even show a bit of sadness. What is wrong with loving someone? You who don’t love him but still monopolize him, you’re the worst."

"Love?" Ji Yunhuan couldn’t help but laugh. "That’s the funniest thing I’ve ever heard. In your love concept, seducing other people’s partners is justified?"

"You... you weren’t married, how could I be a third party?" Ouyang Fei’s cheeks flushed red.

"Exactly! Because I didn’t marry him and I don’t care for him, you could easily snatch him. But if we talk about love, do you remember whose name he called when he was unconscious? Where was your place, Ouyang Fei?" The words Gu Yubai wanted to reconcile with her, Ji Yunhuan didn’t bother to say.

Gu Yubai called her name when he was unconscious. It was Ouyang Fei who told her that. Ji Yunhuan was just using this to retort Ouyang Fei.

Sure enough, upon hearing this, Ouyang Fei’s expression became incredibly ugly.

Ji Yunhuan also lost interest in continuing to belittle her. "You should thank me for no longer being interested in him. Otherwise, do you think you could take my things?"

Having disciplined Gu Xinran and taking the money, Ji Yunhuan was ready to leave.

With the check in hand, just as she reached the door, Mrs. Gu realized and hurriedly called out to her, "Wait." freewebnoveℓ.com

Ji Yunhuan leisurely stopped. "Aunt Gu, is there anything else?"

"You’ve got the money. Shouldn’t you give me what I want?" That leverage concerning the Gu Family’s future, left in Ji Yunhuan’s hands, kept Mrs. Gu sleepless.

"The thing? What thing?" Ji Yunhuan asked in confusion.

"Are you playing dumb?"

"When did I ever say that taking the money meant giving you the thing? One million, you think you can buy the Gu Family’s future from me, Aunt Gu? That’s a funny joke. This one million is just hush money."

Hearing her words, Mrs. Gu was so angry that she almost passed out. Besides the million, she even slapped Gu Xinran so many times, and yet Ji Yunhuan... Ji Yunhuan was refusing at a time like this!

Mrs. Gu held herself upright by the edge of the table, just barely. By this time, Ji Yunhuan had already walked out the door.

Leaving the hospital, Ji Yunhuan went to the bank, cashed the check, and felt a little more comfortable seeing an extra million in her account.

Returning to the Qi Family, as soon as she stepped into the living room, she saw Gu Xinran sitting in the living room with Qi Cheng. As soon as Ji Yunhuan appeared, Gu Xinran, who had been looking pitiful, now glared at her with eyes full of hatred.
