Lovely Substitute Bride

Liu Meilan hadn't been together with Ruan Jiani this morning, so she didn't know what had happened yesterday. Now that her face had been thrown away, she didn't know what had happened.    

    

However, he still doted on his daughter in his heart. Seeing Ji Jingchen sitting in the restaurant, he walked over and smiled at him.    

    

"Mr Ji, you're having a meal here today. If you had told us in advance, I would have asked Jiani to prepare a rich breakfast for you. "    

    

"Our family's Jiani specializes in cooking. There aren't many girls who like cooking as much as her now, and she's also very filial."    

    

She kept on praising, hoping to make Ruan Jiani's impression on Ji Jingchen better.    

    

However, Ji Jingchen frowned.    

    

"Enough?"    

    

His sharp gaze swept across Liu Meilan's body, his voice icy cold.    

    

When Liu Meilan heard this, she sucked in a breath of cold air, not daring to continue speaking.    

    

Ji Jingchen continued, "I know very well what kind of person Ruan Jiani is. There's no need for you to stand up for her here."    

    

Liu Meilan became even more fearful when she heard that. She only felt that the aura from Ji Jingchen was not to be underestimated. It was even more terrifying than Ruan Jian'guo.    

    

Even Liu Meilan, who was used to seeing rich merchants and high ranking officials, was intimidated by his imposing aura. She didn't dare to open her mouth as she stood awkwardly to the side, watching the two of them, not knowing what to do.    

    

Wen Tiantian remembered the news from Elder Peng yesterday due to having breakfast. She said, "I still need to go to Elder Peng's place after work. I think there's a new collection that needs my help."    

    

Wen Tiantian was now the CEO of Ruan Group, controlling the entire company's lifeline, but she did not give up her hobby.    

    

Elder Peng also supported her decision. Every once in a while, he would give her some pointers and assign her some tasks.    

    

Ji Jingchen, on the other hand, was a little worried as a tiny fold appeared on his forehead.    

    

"Are you still busy with the company's matters?"    

    

He was worried that Wen Tiantian would overwork herself by holding multiple jobs.    

    

Not to mention that there were now Ruan Jiani and her daughter on the players' side. It was hard for them to be at ease.    

    

Wen Tiantian wasn't worried at all.    

    

"Elder Peng said that he just obtained a pretty good collection item. He wanted me to fix it by name. The crack on it is not big, so I can go over and take a look before making a decision."    

    

Ji Jingchen finally nodded in agreement.    

    

"I'll go with you."    

    

After finishing their breakfast, the two of them ignored the Liu Meilan in front of them and directly left Ruan Family for the company.    

    

Liu Meilan waited for him to leave before she let out a sigh of relief.    

    

In Ji Jingchen's eyes, Ruan Jiani was nowhere to be seen. Moreover, these two people were definitely not easy to deal with.    

    

Now that they were living under someone else's roof, they didn't have any power or money on them, not to mention that Ji Jingchen was different from Liang Ji'ann.    

    

This man lacked nothing. He would never let himself be wronged by Jiani for the sake of power.    

    

Liu Meilan sighed as she thought.    

    

She got up and went upstairs to Ruan Jiani's bedroom. As soon as she entered, she saw that it was a mess.    

    

Everything was thrown to the ground. There were debris and rubbish all over the place.    

    

Ruan Jiani was tearing at the blanket on the bed to vent her anger, throwing it on the ground and stamping on it a few times.    

    

Liu Meilan's words of persuasion got stuck in her throat when she saw her.    

    

"Jiani, you don't have to worry. There will be a way."    

    

"What else can we do?"    

    

Ruan Jiani screamed. "Will they be married in a few days?" "Mom, you have to help me snatch Ji Jingchen back before that happens."    

    

"No problem, no problem. Don't be angry yet."    

    

Liu Meilan quickly calmed her emotions and said, "I will definitely let Ji Jingchen leave Wen Tiantian. Don't worry."    

    

Hearing her promise, Ruan Jiani gradually calmed down and stopped smashing things.    

    

Shortly before 5 PM, Zhong Lee walked into Ji Jingchen's office with the contract in hand.    

    

After signing, he slightly bowed towards Ji Jingchen and asked, "President Ji, do you have any other instructions?"    

    

Ji Jingchen raised his hand and looked at his watch. There were only a few minutes left before the end of the work period.    

    

He shook his head in a rare way.    

    

"It's alright. You should get off work first."    

    

Zhong Lee was surprised when he heard that.    

    

With Ji Jingchen's personality, he would always finish the work on hand ahead of time.    

    

Although the progress of the work had already surpassed the three months that they had been scheduled for, they didn't expect that he would actually ask them to leave work earlier than planned.    

    

He couldn't help but look up at Ji Jingchen and saw that he had stood up and was ready to leave.    

    

Zhong Lee was stunned for a moment and then reacted.    

    

Wen Tiantian was the only one who could make Ji Jingchen leave the company so early.    

    

Thinking of this, he lowered his head and revealed a wry smile.    

    

After Ji Jingchen left the company, he did not return to the ancient fortress, but instead came to Ruan Group.    

    

Looking at the time, it should be almost time to get off work.    

    

Ji Jingchen opened the door and walked down.    

    

When he got out of the car, many employees turned to look at him in surprise.    

    

Ji Jingchen walked straight into the room, not caring about the gazes of others.    

    

A lot of people knew about the relationship between Wen Tiantian and Ji Jingchen, but they rarely saw Ji Jingchen come over personally, so they all looked at him.    

    

Ji Jingchen walked straight to the front desk and asked, "Is Tiantian still upstairs?"    

    

The receptionist bowed her head as she busied herself. She then heard a voice and wondered who could call President Wen by her name so intimately and directly despite the scale of the call.    

    

When he looked up and saw Ji Jingchen, he was stunned for a moment and stood up immediately. His brain was a mess and he did not answer.    

    

After waiting for a while and seeing that she didn't say anything, Ji Jingchen frowned slightly.    

    

The receptionist quickly responded, "Apologize." President Wen has been in the office handling the business. She's upstairs. "    

    

Only then did the wrinkles on Ji Jingchen's forehead finally dissipate. He nodded slightly, turned around, and directly got onto the elevator that was exclusive to the CEO's office.    

    

Once he left, many people in the hall began to discuss quietly.    

    

"Ji Jingchen actually came over. I've said it before, President Wen and President Ji are very close."    

    

"Aiya, it's not the first time. However, ever since President Wen started working as the CEO, it seems like she was trying to avoid suspicion. It's rare for two people to appear at the same time, so you've gotten used to it."    

    

Someone looked at the time and was surprised, "Is President Ji getting off work early? Or did you just directly do your job? "    

    

As they spoke, they started laughing in low voices.    

    

Ji Jingchen took the elevator to the top floor. When he got off the elevator, the assistant immediately stood up and guessed that he was looking for Wen Tiantian. They all spoke up, "President Wen is in the office preparing the documents."    

    

Ji Jingchen nodded slightly and did not stop his footsteps. He just lifted his hand and knocked on the door.    

    

"Come in."
