The Bodyguard King's CEO Wife-Chapter 1260: Personal Vendetta

"No, I have urgent matters to deal with," Ji Qian shook her head in refusal. Ye Shikai’s situation was already critical, and she couldn’t afford any delays. No matter what, Ji Qian wouldn’t cancel her plans.

"It’s for that guy from the Ye Family, isn’t it?" Ji Tao sighed deeply. He never expected that Ye Shikai had already married Chen Yuxin, yet his eldest daughter still couldn’t forget him, even going so far as to bring out the foundations she had built over the years to fight the Chen family.

Ji Qian certainly didn’t care about the position of Moon God, but she wouldn’t joke about the Moon Guards lightly. Having fought side by side for so long, there were bonds formed, and lately, Ji Qian had been using the Ji family’s resources to try to integrate the Moon Guards into the Ji family, making them her personal security team.

Taking these Moon Guards and storming the North American God King Hall was not her territory. There was no reinforcements, no retreat, which was basically a suicide mission. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

"Father, his situation is very dangerous right now. He has saved me countless times, and this time I must go to save him." Ji Qian spoke each word slowly and forcefully. If Ye Shikai really went into the God King Hall, it would be like a lamb entering a tiger’s den. Chen Yuxin was such a silly woman, did she really believe Zeus’s nonsense?

Zeus had been wary of Ye Shikai for a long time. If he truly went, without Inner Strength, without any help, Zeus could do whatever he wanted.

If Chen Yuxin stood in front of her, Ji Qian would definitely scold her harshly, or even beat her up.

"Is it really just to repay a debt of gratitude?" Ji Tao had long seen through Ji Qian’s thoughts. Saying it was to repay a debt was too fake. The two had already been intimate; who had heard of a man and woman repaying a debt between lovers? Ji Qian still deeply loved Ye Shikai in her heart and couldn’t let go of him because of that.

From a father’s perspective, if his daughter found a man who was equally passionate and capable as a husband, it would indeed be an incredibly fortunate thing. In such a large family, arranged marriages were still necessary. Chen Yuxin wasn’t climbing up just for that reason, to fight for the position of Family Head? Otherwise, her fate would surely have been arranged to marry into a prestigious family, unable to make her own choices in marriage. If the match was good-looking, it would be okay. If it was with an old man, burly and stout with yellow teeth, the woman wouldn’t have any say in the matter, just like a commodity to be married off directly.

Chen Yuxin worked so hard to become the Family Head back then, and Ye Shikai was her motivation. But now that she became the Family Head, she was slowly losing Ye Shikai...

Ji Qian had a falling out with Ji Tao when she was young, and not long after she became an adult, she went abroad. This incident had always been a scar in Ji Tao’s heart. As a father, such a hurt was enormous. Fortunately, Ji Qian returned, so Ji Tao wouldn’t force her into a "family marriage." As for Ji Yu, that little girl might not be so lucky, but from her last incident with Zheng Ji, if things didn’t go her way, she could at least complain to her big sister Ji Qian.

However, Ji Tao not interfering in Ji Qian’s romantic life didn’t mean he would let it go unchecked. Especially if it led to Ji Qian and Chen Yuxin coming to blows and the Ji and Chen families facing off, he couldn’t just stand by. Both families were prominent families in Yanjing, constantly encountering each other, and considering Huaxia’s traditional values, Ji Qian’s status was that of a "mistress." Prominent families valued their reputation, and if Ji Qian insisted on being entangled with Ye Shikai, Ji Tao would have to intervene.

"Qian’er, he’s a married man. Persisting won’t lead to any results," Ji Tao sighed, tapping the ground incessantly with his walking stick, truly trying to be patient and heartfelt.

"If you had gotten married abroad back then and returned together now, I would absolutely not oppose it. On the contrary, I would happily accept this son-in-law. But the situation is different now. He first married Su Qingyu, then married Chen Yuxin. In Yanjing’s business circle, everyone knows him, everyone talks about him, saying he’s infamous is an understatement." The more Ji Tao spoke, the angrier he got. "In any case, if you stay with him, I... will absolutely not agree, hmph."

"Whether you agree or not doesn’t matter. I’ll go there myself," Ji Qian said coldly, then walked straight past him. She never expected Ji Tao would help her. To be honest, Ji Qian didn’t want Ji Tao to intervene. She only took the Moon Guards with her, indicating that this was a personal grudge between her and Chen Yuxin. If Ji Tao got involved, it would be a feud between two families. She didn’t want her actions to drag the entire family into this.

"Family Head, the eldest lady has always been determined. Since she has made up her mind, it’s not wise to stop her. North America is not our territory. If the eldest lady encounters trouble there, I’m afraid... it could be fatal," Chen Ligong said from the side.

"Old Chen, you are absolutely right. I know some things about Zeus. There seems to be a conflict between him and that boy Ye Shikai, but... why would Chen Yuxin send him to North America?" Ji Tao was utterly puzzled. Although the Ji family had intelligence, Ji Tao had no knowledge of what went on between Chen Yuxin and Ye Shikai.

"Old Chen, take a team of the White Mist Army and follow them to ensure Qian’er’s safety." Ji Tao hesitated for a moment but still gave the order. He couldn’t let Ji Qian come to any harm. If it really escalated to a family conflict, he would accept the consequences.

.......................................

"Eldest Miss, the Family Head sent me to protect you." Chen Ligong, along with dozens of White Mist Army members, joined Ji Qian and the others at the airport. Ji Tao had Chen Ligong step in to represent the Ji family, hoping that when Chen Yuxin saw the Ji family’s involvement, she might "take a step back." Presumably, Chen Yuxin wouldn’t want to fall out with the two families either.

"Thank you for your efforts, Elder Chen." Ji Qian gave him a slight bow. With Chen Ligong and the White Mist Army’s help, they had a better chance of dealing with Zeus in North America. However... due to delays at the National Security Bureau, they might not reach in time.

"Lord Moon God, the plane is refueled. I’ll let the brothers board first." Nightmare said.

"Alright, you take them up first." Ji Qian turned to Chen Ligong. "Elder Chen, space on the plane is limited. It might be a bit of a squeeze for you all."

"Don’t worry, Eldest Miss. It’s a minor matter." Chen Ligong waved it off. The Hidden Guards, Moon Guards, and White Mist Army numbered over a hundred, which stretched even the Chen family’s private jet.

"Eldest Miss, the Family Head does care about you. Please don’t stay angry with him."

"I’ve never been angry with him. I understand... He has his difficulties."
