Ji Yan nodded and obediently turned to go into the kitchen. She didn’t care about how Mrs. Shang ordered her like a maid. It was just breakfast. She could make some more for Shang Jinshen while she was at it.
She had to please them before she got what she wanted!
“Young Madam, Madam is in a bad mood. Just avoid her.” Seeing Ji Yan enter the kitchen, Madam Zhang kindly reminded her.
“Oh?” Ji Yan was a little confused. “Wasn’t Madam at the Han family home? When did she come back?”
“She came back last night. Young Madam, you were drunk when you came home. Maybe you don’t remember.”
Nodding, she threw the fried dough stick into the pot and asked casually, “Why is she in a bad mood again? Who provoked her?”
If she knew what she was angry about, she would just have to avoid bringing up the topic. Anyway, as long as she did not go against her, Ji Yan would still survive in the Shang family.
“I heard that it’s about Mr. Shang, but I’m not so sure. But Mr. Shang is indeed too biased toward that mother-and-son pair. Mrs. Shang and Young Master are the real members of the Shang family members.” It was rare for Madam Zhang to gossip, which surprised Ji Yan. When she wanted to continue asking, Madam Zhang had already lowered her head and continued her work.
She looked away and knew that the most taboo thing for a noble family was for servants to talk about their masters.
But did it have something to do with Shang Yu An?
She suddenly remembered her original intention to meet Shang Jinshen yesterday. She forgot to ask him what had happened. What was the purpose of Shang Yu An’s call the day before?
With doubts, Ji Yan served Mrs. Shang well and went out as soon as she was done.
“Where’s the president? I want to see him.”
“Yes, we want to see the president. Why should he do this to us?” Before Ji Yan reached Shang Corp., she heard many people arguing downstairs.
A crowd causing a scene? Her first reaction was that it had something to do with what had happened the day before. Ji Yan took a few steps closer and saw Lan Si coming out with a group of people with a cold face, impatiently bombarding the people in the crowd.
“What are you doing? If you all want to cause trouble, take it to the police station. Why are we dismissing you all? Go back and have a good look at the dismissal letters!” A man went forward and shouted. After that, many people were intimidated by his looks and took a few steps back.
When those troublemakers heard about bringing it to the police station, they all felt guilty. They knew why they were fired, but they were unwilling to leave. They were just looking for a chance to get some money for the dismissal of their contract.
Lan Si looked at the group of people with a sneer. These people were basically a group of scums under the command of Shang Yu An. They must be really dumb. They were causing trouble instead of quickly trying to run away. If the young master was really provoked, they would never get away from the police.
Seeing that those people were all gone, Ji Yan took the lunchbox and wanted to stop Lan Si. She also wanted Lan Si to take it to Shang Jinshen.
As soon as she took a few steps forward, she was pulled back by a strong force. Ji Yan frowned and looked back at the person who grabbed her arm.
Shang Yu An? Her frown deepened. She had a bad feeling when she saw this man.
“Ji Yan, where are you going?” The man narrowed his eyes and stared dangerously at the woman in his arms. He said in a cold and harsh tone, “Are you going to give it to Shang Jingshen? Haha, are you trying to flatter him just because he’s still the president?”
“What are you talking about?” She shook his hand but he was so strong that it was as if he wanted to pinch her to death. Ji Yan struggled to get out of his grip.
He tightened his grip even more, and his eyes were full of evil. “What did I say? Didn’t I tell you yesterday? Why are you so disobedient when I pick you up?”
Ji Yan looked at Shang Yu An’s crazed expression and felt uneasy. It was strange for him to be like this.
“Shang Yu An, what exactly do you want? I’m Shang Jinshen’s wife. I have nothing to do with you.”
As soon as she mentioned Shang Jingshen, his expression became gloomier. Blue veins stood out on his forehead as he yelled, “Don’t you ever mention Shang Jinshen’s name in front of me. He’s just relying on his family background. Why did he steal my company and my woman?”
Ji Yan looked at Shang Yu An as if she was looking at a madman. She thought to herself, “This man must be having a mental disorder. What does it mean that Shang Jinshen stole from him? They were Shang Jinshen’s to begin with!”
“You’ve changed. How did you become so scary? You’re so strange. Do you think you can do anything for what you want?” She looked at the strange Shang Yu An and couldn’t help but sigh. She only felt sad and sympathetic for her ex-lover.
“I changed? Ji Yan, I won’t say anything else. You were my girlfriend. If he didn’t steal from me, then what is it?” He said ferociously, with a look of deep affection and stubbornness.
Ji Yan shook her head in amusement. “What stealing? You gave up on me and chose my good sister. I was pushed to Shang Jingshen. Who could beat you in terms of being selfish? Don’t pretend to love me. You love nobody else but yourself the most. It’s you!”
“Shang Yu An, let go of me. Don’t let me look down on you anymore.” Ji Yan looked at him coldly and mercilessly, without any trace of friendship in her eyes.
Shang Yu An looked at her in disbelief. They were both illegitimate children. He couldn’t accept her looking at him with disdain.
He pushed her away with one hand and yelled crazily, “Ji Yan, I won’t lose. I will get back everything that belongs to me!”
Lunatic! Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ji Yan shook off his hand and walked away without looking back.
But in the next second, her nose and mouth were covered by a pair of hands, and her eyes were filled with horror. She didn’t expect that Shang Yu An was going to kidnap her.
Shang Yu An looked around and left secretly with Ji Yan in his arms. A lovely lunch box fell and rolled on the ground.
Before Lan Si entered the company building, he turned his head and looked outside. He felt as if something had happened.
When Ji Yan woke up, she felt weak all over. She tried her best to open her sore eyes, but the room was dark as soon as she opened them.
She was a little flustered and wanted to stand up, but found that she could not move at all. Not only did she have no strength, but her hands and feet were tied up.
“Shang Yu An, Shang Yu An,” Ji yan shouted anxiously. She was afraid that Shang Yu An, who had become a stranger, would do something to her.
No one responded and there was a strange odor in the air. This house must have been deserted for a long time. Ji Yan didn’t know where she was, nor did she know what Shang Yu An wanted to do.
She bit her lip, trying to sober herself up.
After a long while, there was a creaking sound. Someone pushed open the shabby old door from the outside.
She held her breath and looked at the person in the dark.
“Ji Yan, are you awake?” The man’s tone was very gentle, and it looked like he was holding a plastic bag in his hand. He approached her and smiled at her.
“I knew you were awake. Are you hungry? I bought you some porridge,” Shang Yu An said as he squatted down in front of Ji Yan and opened the bag, taking out a bowl of porridge.
The fragrance assailed her nostrils, but Ji Yan didn’t have any appetite. She frowned and looked at Shang Yu An. “What did you kidnap me for?”
Shang Yu An insisted on bringing the porridge to her mouth. Ji Yan looked at him and turned her head in disgust. “What exactly do you want?”
