Since she was young, she had never been nice to her as long as their parents were not around.
Ji Yan was long used to it, so she ignored her and continued to wash the vegetables.
She heard Ji Gui clung onto her shoulder and said in an aggrieved manner, “I was supposed to marry him, but our parents are reluctant to see me suffer, so they had no choice but to put you in an awkward situation.”
Ji Yan felt a chill in her heart. She frowned and said, “Pick it up.”
Ji Gui did not understand. She asked with a puzzled look, “Pick what up?”
Ji Yan glanced at her indifferently and sneered, “The goosebumps that fell on the ground. You’re getting better and better at making others feel disgusted.”
Ji Gui’s expression changed after being shamed. She immediately changed to her cold expression and no longer had that brilliant smile.
She moved the corners of her mouth and showed a disgusting smile, “So what if you married into the Shang family and became rich? You’re just married to a disabled man, and you’ll never get respect and will only be trampled on by others…”
She sighed and shook her head. She touched the porcelain bowl on the cabinet and added, “And, you won’t get any benefits in the Ji family as well, like now.”
She raised her hand, and the porcelain bowl with a white base orchid in her hand fell.
After a loud noise, she picked up the broken pieces and slit her wrist. She cried with tears in her eyes, “Ji Yan, I was wrong! I was wrong!”
The porcelain piece cut her fair skin, and her red blood instantly gushed out.
Ji Yan sighed. This person was so good at acting, but why was her IQ still stuck at the age of seven? The same set of tricks was enough for her to replay more than ten times.
There were hurried footsteps heard from outside the door. Then, the kitchen door opened.
Mrs. Ji shouted, “What’s going on?”
When she saw Ji Gui’s crying face with her hand on her wrist, she was furious. She looked at Ji Yan angrily and said ferociously, “Ji Yan! You are an evil creature! You have never been nice to your sister since you were young!”
Mr. Ji also came in a hurry. Seeing this scene, he also angrily rebuked, “You shouldn’t have come back! You only bring misfortune as soon as you come back!”
Ji Yan’s eyes darkened. After all, she was just a jinx in the eyes of the Ji family members.
She was about to open her mouth as she wanted to say something. However, Ji Gui interrupted her.
Ji Gui covered her wrist and sobbed, “Mom, dad, it’s not her fault. It’s just that she said that she married a disfigured man because of me. It’s really not her fault!”
Her tearful appearance looked really pitiful. Her soft and unguarded posture made Mr. Ji and Mrs. Ji feel even more painful.
Shang Jinshen was still sitting in the living room. It was no doubt that Ji Gui purposely said that for him to hear to make him hate Ji Yan even more in the future.
And then Mr. Ji and Mrs. Ji would dislike Ji Yan even more.
Mrs. Ji glared at Ji Yan furiously and raised her hand to slap her. However, she got interrupted by a lazy voice, “In my opinion, the most important thing now is to take Miss Ji to deal with her wound.”
The voice came from outside the kitchen.
Everyone looked over and they didn’t notice when Shang Jinshen had already been sitting outside the door. He was watching the whole family’s performance with his gloomy eyes.
Ji Yan lowered her head, and her face was burning hot.
“What a shame! He witnessed me losing my dignity over and over again.”
Mrs. Ji quickly pulled Ji Gui into the room after hearing that. Mr. Ji wanted to continue to scold Ji Yan, but he could not lose his temper because Shang Jinshen was still there.
He could only sigh and say, “Mr. Shang, I’m sorry you had to see this mess. Ji Yan has been competitive since childhood, unlike her sister, who has always been kind and gentle…”
Ji Yan couldn’t hear anything anymore about what other things he said.
Because she had already picked up the broom and dealt with the broken pieces on the ground silently.
Shang Jinshen was listening to Mr. Ji’s explanation, yet he was staring at the silent Ji Yan.
She acted as if she had no feelings at all. She didn’t care about other people’s attitudes at all. She just did her things quietly.
This was her quiet and calm look.
She was neither humble nor pushy, neither competing nor snatching.
Her face was ruddy under the red dress. She was like a red apple that had just been picked. She looked fresh and tender.
He suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart. He turned his head around and stopped looking at her anymore.
A silly woman.
She was indeed a silly woman.
