Chapter 325: The Ji Family's Predicament

'Big brother, don't say it like you're so righteous. If you hadn't driven me out of the Ji family, how would I have come to work for Master Xu? You are also equally responsible for the consequences that have been caused.'

Ji Changming stood opposite him, his face gloomy and his tone extremely cold.

Xu Qingmu, who was sitting in a chair, immediately clapped his hands and laughed. 'Well said! By the way, please allow me to introduce the head of the Ji family to the person standing in front of you. This person is now the general manager of our Xu family's new company. How about it, are you surprised or not?

Upon hearing this, Ji Guangsheng felt his blood rise, his brain throb, and even his body sway.

He never dreamed that the person who had betrayed his family the most would be his own younger brother.

However, it was obvious that Xu Qingmu had not chosen to let him go because of this. He stood up from his chair slowly.

He walked step by step to stand in front of him, and a sinister smile curled the corner of his mouth.

'Ji Guangsheng, do you think my methods will end here? No, after you left the Ji family, I sent you a bigger surprise. Before the mystery is revealed, the head of the Ji family might as well guess what it is.'

Ji Guangsheng froze upon hearing this, and couldn't help but glance at the two people standing in front of him.

Recalling Xu Qingmu's plot earlier, he seemed to have thought of something in an instant, and Ji Guangsheng's face suddenly changed.

He then paid no more attention to anything and turned to leave.

Seeing his dispirited expression, Xu Qingmu's smug look on his face became even stronger.

Immediately, he lightly clapped his hands, and the door to the study was suddenly opened from the outside.

The butler Bai Guang, who was looking panicked, finally stumbled in at this moment.

'Master, master, it's bad, I received a call from the family. Just now, a group of reporters and people forcibly broke into our Ji family factory to film, and seized a large amount of rotten and toxic wolfberries from the packaging production line. Many newspapers are attacking us like crazy, and even the people from the regulatory authority have already intervened. Our family has more than a dozen factories, and they have all been shut down now!'

Ji Guangsheng, who had already walked to the door, suddenly heard such bad news, and his whole body could not help but be overwhelmed with anger.

Just as he was about to say something, he felt a sudden salty taste in his mouth, and then a mouthful of blood spurted onto the ground.

His legs immediately gave way, and he fell backwards.

'Master, master...'

The butler Bai Guang was also shocked, and quickly rushed over to help him up.

Ji Guangsheng knew that Xu Qingmu was going to deal with the Ji family.

But he never expected that the attack would come so quickly and be so vicious.

At this moment, he was trembling with anger, staring at the two people across from him.

Xu Qingmu, on the other hand, was extremely pleased with himself, looking at the face of the exhausted head of the Ji family, with blood at the corners of his mouth, and was full of pleasure.

'Old man, to be honest, my plan could not have been so successful without your second brother. Otherwise, how could I have so secretly delivered the problematic wolfberries to your Ji family's production line?'

As I said, everyone who dares to deceive me will pay the price!

Ji Guangsheng, don't just die like this, after all... this is just the beginning.

Next, I will let you watch with your own eyes how the Ji family will be slowly destroyed by me.

Until then, you must stay alive, hahahaha.'

Having said this, Xu Qingmu shouted towards the door of the study again.

'Someone, immediately take the head of the Ji family to the hospital!'

...

On the other side, in Haicheng,

Ji Pianran was at home with her granddaughter playing in the park. She was still a little surprised that her father Ji Guangsheng had left in such a hurry the day before without saying goodbye.

But she didn't think much of it.

She just thought that some leader from Sichuan City had come to inspect the city and so her father had to receive them.

Although Ji Guangsheng hadn't stayed in Haicheng for long, he had a very good relationship with his granddaughter.

Tangtang knew that no matter when she was with him, he would always smile at her.

And he spoils her a lot. After she found out that her grandfather had gone back home, she cried for a long time.

Later, Ji Pianran promised to take her to see her grandfather after the summer vacation.

The little girl finally stopped crying and smiled.

At this moment, the phone in her pocket suddenly rang.

Ji Pianran took it out and saw that the number displayed was her mother's.

A smile could not help but appear on her face, and she then pressed the answer button.

'Hello, Mum, is there something wrong?' Ji Bianran asked curiously.

Hearing her daughter's voice on the other end of the line, Wu Shuhui's tears suddenly couldn't be held back.

But she didn't want her daughter to worry about it, so she quickly reached out to wipe away the tears on her face.

Trying to control her emotions, which were about to collapse, she said to her daughter:

'No, it's nothing. Piran, I'm just calling to tell you to be careful recently. The Xu family... Xu Qingmu already knows that you're still alive. I'm worried that he might do something to you.'

Upon hearing her mother Wu Shuhui's words, Ji Piran's face suddenly turned a little ugly.

This was the thing she had been most worried about since she had contacted the family, and she never expected it to happen now.

However, at this time, she was no longer the fragile and helpless little girl she had been back then.

She then suppressed the panic rising in her heart and instead reassured Wu Shuhui on the phone.

'Yes, Mom, I know. Don't worry, I'll be on my guard. And you don't need to worry too much about me. The Xus may be very powerful in Chuan City, but don't forget that I'm in Haicheng now, and Gu Chen will protect me. Even if Xu Qingmu really comes, he may not be able to do anything to me.'

Ji Pianran said this on the phone, but then she suddenly thought of something, and her face changed. After all, Xu Qingmu had also pursued her madly.

She knew him too well, otherwise she would not have secretly eloped in the first place.

And Ji Pianran knew very well in her heart the kind of almost insane paranoia that Xu Qingmu had in his bones.

And how strong his almost perverted possessiveness was for her.

Now that the other party knows her news, Xu Qingmu will never let go of the Ji family.

Then she thought of her father Ji Guangsheng's sudden departure from Haicheng.

A bad feeling rose in her heart.

She spoke hastily, her tone tinged with nervousness.

'Mom, tell me, how is Dad doing? He returned to Chuancheng in such a hurry, did something happen to our family?'

She desperately wanted to know the answer.

Wu Shuhui had never imagined that her daughter could be so clever. From just a few words, she had deduced the current crisis in the Ji family.

She wanted to comfort her daughter, but when she spoke, even her own voice became a little choked.

'Your father, your father... has been so angry that he has been hospitalised.'
