Xin Zaozao dropped off Song Zhizhi.

She then returned to the Xin Family villa.

It seemed like there was a figure at the villa entrance, incessantly making markings on the grand entranceway.

On seeing the glare of the car lights, they abruptly fled.

Xin Zaozao frowned.

This is a villa district, how can anyone just freely stroll in?

She thought for a while, “Nie Feng, stop the car.”

Nie Feng quickly pulled over.

Xin Zaozao opened the car door, and quickly made her way to the gate.

On the iron gate, with red paint, was written, “Wan Quan should die a terrible death! Mu Cidian should die a terrible…”

The word ‘die’ was not yet completely written.

Xin Zaozao frowned again.

Are internet users really so insane?

The news had long passed, other headlines had taken the front page, she supposedly should have lost her relevance by now.

Shouldn’t those radical keyboard warriors have moved on to another target?!

They’re still recklessly defacing property.

Due to nature of nightfall, the villa area was unusually quiet and dim, Xin Zaozao could not clearly see who that person was, let alone where they had run off to?!

She just stood there for a while.

A somewhat blinding car light flashed her way.

She turned her head.

She watched as Mu Cidian’s car silently drove past her.

Her gaze momentarily paused, she went back to Nie Feng’s car.

Anyway, the person being scolded wasn’t her, she didn’t need to fuss about it.

She entered back into the villa’s living room.

Rarely, Mu Cidian was home tonight.

He probably didn’t expect I would come back at this hour; otherwise, he wouldn’t be here.

At this moment, Wan Quan, who was sitting in the living room, stopped her – that’s why Xin Zaozao and her wound up in the same space.

Wan Quan, while eating fruit, saw that Xin Zaozao had just come in from outside. Sarcastically, she smirked, “Is that not our busybody? She’s home at 8, that’s a rarity. Tell me Mu Cidian, did you come back with Xin Zaozao?!”

Mu Cidian had not spoken to his mother in a long time.

If she hadn’t called out to him today, he might have ignored her again, choosing silence.

To be precise, it was not just his mother he was silent towards, but many others as well.

His already reserved personality had become even more taciturn.

Wan Quan approached Mu Cidian, watching Xin Zaozao who had just walked past him.

It seemed like no one in the house paid attention to Wan Quan, everyone acted as if they couldn’t hear her. She seemed absolutely furious, “Xin Zaozao, stop right there!”

Xin Zaozao didn’t stop.

“Xin Zaozao!” Wan Quan roared in rage.

Xin Zaozao halted her steps for a moment, coldly she asked, “What do you want?”

“Did you get someone to retaliate against me?” Wan Quan accused.

Xin Zaozao sneered, “Oh, someone retaliated against you?”

“Don’t pretend to be ignorant. Don’t think I don’t know that the graffiti on the gate was done by someone you put up to it. Don’t think I don’t know, you’re the one who send me threatening messages, horrifying videos to scare me…”

“If you have evidence, sue me.” Xin Zaozao cut her off, “if not, shut up!”

“Xin Zaozao!”

Xin Zaozao ignored Wan Quan’s explosive anger, she headed upstairs with Nie Feng.

Wan Quan picked up a teacup from the coffee table and attempted to throw it at Xin Zaozao.

Mu Cidian swiftly grabbed his mother’s hand, “Have you finished making a scene?”

“Let go of me!”

Mu Cidian did not let go of her, instead, he forcefully removed the cup from her hand.

Wan Quan’s body trembled with rage, grinding her teeth, she gritted out, “I raised an ingrate!”

“Say whatever you like!”

Mu Cidian put down the teacup, turned and left without exchanging another word with his mother.

Seeing Mu Cidian’s indifferent demeanor, Wan Quan wished she could strangle him, wipe him from existence, she spat out resentfully, “Mu Cidian, your fawning over Xin Zaozao, did she even pay you any mind?”

Mu Cidian’s departing steps paused momentarily.

Wan Quan mocked him, “Your shameless attempts to win her over, did she end up with you? You’re absolutely humiliating yourself!”

Mu Cidian didn’t say a word, nor did he wish to hear another word from his mother.

He retreated to his room.

He went straight to the balcony, took out a cigarette, and began to smoke aggressively.

Xin Zaozao wouldn’t pay him any attention, she wouldn’t be with him.

That wasn’t just wishful thinking, he wouldn’t even dare to entertain the thought.

A penthouse with a rooftop garden in a high-end residential area.

When Song Zhizhi returned home, surprisingly, Ji Baijian was not there.

She had told Ji Baijian in the afternoon that she would not be home for dinner. She didn’t expect that when she didn’t go home, he would return even later than her.

She was somewhat annoyed and picked up the phone to call him.

“Madam.” On the other end of the phone was that familiar, incredibly magnetic voice.

“Where are you?” Song Zhizhi asked bluntly.

“Your husband is still at work. Have you returned home, my dear?”

“Still at work?” She asked skeptically.

“I’m afraid so. I’ve been running around for my wife recently, and it’s been quite some time since I’ve been to work…”

“Ji Baijian, it wasn’t just for me, was it?”

“Well yes, it was also for myself. Indeed, I haven’t been to the company for quite a while, and you heard yesterday how I was reprimanded.”

Yesterday, when they returned to the Ji Family home, Ji Baijian seemed to be reprimanded by Ji Yunlei quite sternly.

“So, you’re trying to redeem yourself today?”

“Not exactly”, Ji Baijian replied, “Considering the large family business of the Ji Family, it would be a real pity if we lost it. And since I happened to have been born here, I have an obligation to shoulder this enterprise. So, I still need to put in some effort.”

“Are you planning to take over the Jihong Group then?”

“Madam is overthinking it. I am just taking some time now to coach Baili. He may be a bit lacking in abilities, but with more training, he should be up to the task.”

At that moment, Song Zhizhi was speechless.

Ji Baili, a graduate of a prestigious university and considered a top-tier talent, was actually deemed by Ji Baijian as being a bit lacking in abilities.

Ji Baili, who was sitting in Ji Baijian’s office, was actually very calm.

According to his older brother, everyone is inferior.

He was quite composed.

He listened calmly as his brother spoke to his wife in an incredibly gentle voice, “Madam, you should go to bed early. I’ll be back soon.”

Ji Baili felt a shiver run down his spine.

He thought he would never see his brother behave like this in his life.

From the time he began to have an impression of his older brother, he felt that his brother was a strange creature, meticulous, discerning, and uncommonly brilliant. Even when facing their father, his expression seemed to say he was dealing with a fool, at least, that was what Ji Baili inferred. Anyway, in his memory, there was nothing his older brother couldn’t do.

At this moment, his infallible older brother, after coaxing his wife, his expression turned markedly serious.

He lifted his head to look at Ji Baili.

Ji Baili was sitting upright and formally.

When facing his brother, he always habitually straightens up, assuming an odd diligent demeanor.

Since he couldn’t measure up to him in any way, he competed for a while, found it humiliating, and chose to be obedient and odd.

“For the next few days, you’ll come to work with me. Don’t be too narrow-minded, but don’t be too offbeat either. The most important quality of a leader is to have a broad perspective and the ability to maintain stability,” Ji Baijian said, his tone exceptionally grave when facing Ji Baili.

Ji Baili kept nodding his head.

Ji Baijian’s eyes shifted slightly.

Ji Baili maintained his serious demeanor.

Ji Baijian asked, “Do you know what your biggest problem is?”

Ji Baili thought for a moment, “My abilities are too weak?”

“That’s one aspect.”

“I’m not as smart as you.”

Ji Baijian paused for a moment, “That counts too.”

“I lack a broad perspective?”, Ji Baili guessed.

Ji Baili furrowed his brows.

“I’m not mature enough,” Ji Baili continued.

“The biggest problem is, you’re too young,” Ji Baijian remarked bluntly.

So, was that a problem?!

Was being young his fault?

Moreover, you’re only 2 years older than me.

How old can you be?!

Ji Baili stared at his older brother.

“You lack experience, you can’t stabilize the situation, to put it bluntly, you lack a certain aura, you can’t command the respect of the people below you. So starting from now, you will preside over each company meeting, with me sitting next to you.”

“That doesn’t seem quite right,” Ji Baili replied.

With his brother there, he felt that he often couldn’t even sort out his words.

“I’m just informing you,” Ji Baijian emphasized each word.

Ji Baili kept silent.

Ji Baijian continued, “Besides, even if you just disagreed with me, you should not use the word ‘maybe’. You should directly say ‘no’. Express your views clearly and directly. You must understand that you are a leader. Your decision is the decision. There is no room for bargaining.”

Ji Baili didn’t quite understand. How did he inexplicably become a leader?

With such a large family business, was his older brother really willing to give it up?!
