The Beautiful CEO's Super Soldier King-Chapter 951 [Facing Ji Qingrong]
Could it be that he really predicted it?
But Ji Qiushui immediately dismissed this idea, thinking it was just Ye Chenfeng talking nonsense.
Did he see it in one glance? His gaze is too sharp, isn’t it? Ji Qiushui was very shocked in her heart.
"How did you know?"
Ji Qiushui surprisingly wasn’t angry, but asked curiously.
"This should be a skill every experienced driver has, right? If you don’t have this skill, how can you claim you’re good at flirting?" Ye Chenfeng smiled.
Ji Qiushui didn’t speak, but the disgust in her eyes deepened quite a bit.
"Hey? Don’t you usually only say two words when you speak? Why are you saying so much now?" Ye Chenfeng asked.
"Shut up!"
Ji Qiushui almost roared out the words.
Red Leaf Mountain.
Ji Qiushui drove all the way to the top of Red Leaf Mountain. Midway up, there were many luxurious villas, places ordinary people could never reach.
At the center of the peak stood a small pavilion, the ground around it covered with dead leaves.
Inside stood a person, facing forward, overlooking Capital City.
But his figure appeared so lonely and desolate, adding a sense of bleakness in this cold season.
"We’re here!"
"You go over there!"
Ji Qiushui asked Ye Chenfeng to get out and go into the pavilion.
"Why should I go? It’s pointless, I’ll leave first."
After getting out, Ye Chenfeng turned around intending to leave.
"Mr. Ye, I’ve been waiting for you for a long time, are you really going to let an old man wait in the bitter wind?"
At this moment, a voice came from inside the pavilion, firm and loud.
"Give me a reason to stay!"
Without turning his head, Ye Chenfeng continued walking, only asking the old man for a reason to stay.
"I know some things about your parents!"
A sentence floated to Ye Chenfeng’s ears, causing him to stop abruptly.
"Alright, that’s a good enough reason!"
Ye Chenfeng turned around and silently walked towards the pavilion.
"Qiushui, you wait aside for us!" the old man spoke again, but this time to Ji Qiushui.
"Alright, Grandpa!"
Upon hearing this, Ji Qiushui obediently left. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
This let Ye Chenfeng know that the person in the pavilion was Ji Qiushui’s grandfather, the current head of the Ji Family, Ji Qingrong!
After arriving at the pavilion, Ji Qingrong slowly turned around, revealing a square face with piercing eyes to Ye Chenfeng.
Ji Qingrong had a smile at the corner of his mouth and said to Ye Chenfeng, "Should I call you Mr. Ye or the Forbidden God King?"
"As you wish, it’s just a title." Ye Chenfeng casually walked to the stone bench and sat down.
"Since you don’t mind, I’ll just call you Xiao Ye?" Ji Qingrong said.
"No problem!"
Ye Chenfeng didn’t care at all.
Ji Qingrong continued to smile, "Although your identity as the Forbidden God King has been causing a stir worldwide, very few in the Divine Land, in the Capital City know about it. Even within Dragon Flame, besides the top brass and the Heavenly Dragon Nine Extremes assigned to monitor you, almost no one knows. Even Qiushui doesn’t know your real identity now. Many families or forces only know the Forbidden God King, but not that the Forbidden God King is you. Dragon Flame has done a decent job blocking the news."
Ye Chenfeng immediately understood. No wonder he was living so peacefully in the Capital City; it was because Dragon Flame had blocked the information.
But this was also good, making it easier for him to act.
"Haha... If old Ye Jianguo knew his grandson is the notorious Forbidden God King, I wonder how scared he would be?" Ji Qingrong laughed heartily.
Ye Chenfeng snorted coldly, "I have nothing to do with the Ye Family anymore!"
The smile on Ji Qingrong’s face gradually faded, and he couldn’t help but say, "It seems you’re still holding a grudge for what happened back then!"
Ye Chenfeng didn’t speak, just looked at Ji Qingrong.
"Yes, back then, it was under my advocacy that your and Qiushui’s marriage was called off. To be honest, I was interested in your father at that time, but he disappeared and never showed up again. So your marriage was just a name." Ji Qingrong candidly confessed to Ye Chenfeng.
"No, no, no, you did the right thing, otherwise, I might be sharing a bed with a machine every day." Ye Chenfeng gave a mocking laugh.
"Xiao Ye, there’s no need for you to feel this way. It was indeed my mistake then. I failed to see your potential when I advocated for that marriage, and facts have proven that I was wrong, terribly wrong. Such a simple principle of thirty years of the river east, thirty years west, and I didn’t understand!" Ji Qingrong wore an expression full of regret.
Ye Chenfeng replied coldly, "Do you think just saying you were wrong can ease my resentment?"
"You people were so cruel back then, forcing my mother and me away!
Did you ever consider our feelings?
Did you ever consider our dignity?
Did you ever consider our lives?"
The three consecutive questions left Ji Qingrong speechless.
"There’s a saying that’s truly interesting: today you dismiss me, tomorrow you can’t afford me.
Back then, I was an abandoned young man thrown out of the house, a good kid with no father, a worthless person without an identity!
The almighty Ji Family, overshadowing everything, considered the engagement between me and Ji Qiushui as a disgrace, saying it insulted the term ’ambition’.
But now, the Ji Family means nothing to me, no matter how deep your foundation is; in my eyes, you’re just a paper tiger that can be toppled overnight!"
Standing with his hands behind, Ye Chenfeng’s tone was full of an emperor’s supremacy.
To him, the Great Ji Family, one of the Eight Great Families of the vast Capital City, was just something that could be wiped out with a wave of a hand, nothing worthy of his attention.
Ji Qingrong didn’t refute at all, just quietly watching Ye Chenfeng, his eyes filled with astonishment.
"Don’t think I don’t know your intention, you want to reestablish the engagement and have me marry Ji Qiushui! You want me to become the son-in-law of the Ji Family!" Ye Chenfeng saw through Ji Qingrong’s plan at a glance.
Ji Qingrong’s mouth showed a bit of a bitter smile as he nodded, "Xiao Ye, yes, that’s exactly my idea. The Ji Family is declining, Qiushui’s father’s generation simply can’t make it to the foreground, my only hope rests on Qiushui, so I shaped her into what she is now. As a grandfather, I let her down; now you return powerfully, and with your marriage, the Ji Family can rise again in your hands, I believe Qiushui would make an excellent virtuous wife!"
Ye Chenfeng, however, smiled faintly, "Why not choose Ye Mingtian? Choosing him has a much better chance than choosing me!"
Ji Qingrong said, "Indeed, after I dissolved the engagement with you, I’ve been looking for a husband for Qiushui, and when she grew up, Ye Mingtian was indeed my first choice. But back then, I couldn’t lower my old face, and when I made up my mind, Ye Mingtian had already disappeared. Although he has appeared now, it was earlier that I knew about your existence."
