My Lady, To Defeat Scumbags You Must Start Early

Chapter 222: Chapter 220: Safely return to the country. Song Zhizhi, I’m not your dear husband, right!

Translator: 549690339

In the end, Song Zhizhi took Ji Baijian back to the Yanshang Country.

If course, they didn’t go through the security check.

Yin Qin, amid a wave of protest, broke out in a sweat while helping Ji Baijian change his clothes.

Yan Zhen bandaged Ji Baijian up quickly.

It took probably less than an hour to get everything ready.

Yin Qin planned to help Ji Baijian to his feet.

The thought of it made him feel pain.

Just then, he heard Ji Baijian say to Song Zhizhi, “I want to go through the security check.”

Song Zhizhi nodded, “Or else, we can have Yin Qin carry you. The security check may be a bit of a

hassle. The staff will surely evaluate your physical condition. Do you think you are fit enough to take a plane in your current state?”

Actually, the decision to leave was Ji Baijian’s own.

While on the ambulance, Ji Baijian held her hand.

His grip was very tight.

Against her expectations, she knew at that moment that Ji Baijian was sending her a message that he was okay, and his body was fine.

And then, with a little bit more effort, he pulled her over to his side. She leaned closer to his lips and heard him say, “Go home.”

She didn’t know why Ji Baijian would make this decision, but she trusted him. Since he made this decision, Ji Baijian must have his considerations, so she let Yin Qin drive straight to the airport.

She was also very worried about Ji Baijian’s body, especially after hearing from Yan Zhen back in the van that his left leg was fractured. She could not imagine how Ji Baijian would manage to go through the security check and get on the plane.

So when Qin Jingxiang was angry with her, even though she pushed back, she felt a little scared at that moment. If possible, she wished that Ji Baijian could get his injuries treated before returning home.

But Ji Baijian insisted.

He was set on it.

And her, she trusted him.

In the quiet van, Ji Baijian suddenly sighed.

Almost everyone was in the van, except Qin Jingxiang who was likely still very angry.

So, apart from Qin Jingxiang, everyone heard Ji Baijian say, “I’m not your dear husband.” Song Zhizhi looked straight at him.

Who was the one insisting on leaving? Wasn’t it you who brought all this on yourself?

She was being blamed from all sides.

If Qin Jingxiang had been in the van, there would have been another huge row.

She retorted, “We haven’t consummated the marriage.”

Once she said that.

The entire space went silent.

This was a big piece of gossip!

The onlookers were very interested.

Ji Baijian’s face changed slightly, and he swiftly changed the subject, “Yin Qin, get a wheelchair at the airport.”

Yin Qin looked at Song Zhizhi.

Everyone was looking at Song Zhizhi.

Their looks seemed to say, how could a husband ask more from a wife who is as tricky as you are?!

Song Zhizhi felt her face grow hot and red.

She had not thought everything through, had she?

Subsequently.

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Ji Baijian sat in the wheelchair.

Probably because the decision was quickly made, the unknowing activists didn’t have time to think that their destination was to leave the M Country directly, so there was no obstruction. They smoothly went through the security check and sat in the first-class cabin.

It was another 6-hour flight.

When they arrived in the Yanshang Country it was already past 2 pm.

Ji Baijian was still taken off the plane in a wheelchair and sent straight out of the airport.

After arriving in the Yanshang Country, Song Zhizhi went with Ji Baijian to the hospital.

After roughly over 3 hours of surgery, Ji Baijian, wrapped up like a dumpling, was rolled out.

Song Zhizhi only then realized that Ji Baijian was really badly injured. He was hurt from head to toe.

Luckily, these were all external injuries, his internal organs were well protected.

Ji Baijian was brought to the VIP ward.

By now, the rest of the Ji family had arrived.

Ji Yunlei, Zhang Qingmei, and Ji Baixin.

Yin Qin and Ji Baili stayed, too.

Qin Jingxiang didn’t leave either.

Luo Xiaolang and Wei Ziming didn’t leave as well, since Song Zhizhi stayed.

For a moment, Ji Baijian’s hospital room was full of people.

Ji Yunlei, seeing his son like this, felt very guilty, “Baijian, sorry for the hardship on this trip.” Ji Baijian closed his eyes, not giving much response.

“Get some good rest. I’ll let Baili handle the work, you just rest.” Ji Yunlei comforted, his tone uncharacteristically gentle.

Zhang Qingmei, on the side, was overjoyed when she heard Ji Yunlei mention entrusting the work to Baili.

She was genuinely enthusiastic towards Ji Baijian at that moment, saymg, “Indeed, Baijian, you should rest. Leave everything to your brother. If he doesn’t do well, I’ll give him hell.”

Ji Baili shot his mother a glance.

Could you not be so obvious? Everyone can see your intentions.

The Ji family made such a fuss for a while, and Ji Baijian seemed to have had enough. “I’d like a moment to rest.”

Ji Yunlei’s fatherly image abruptly became a bit awkward.

Zhang Qingmei was also a bit embarrassed.

However, she was the best at smoothing things over. She quickly interjected, “Yes, yes, yes, seeing how badly injured Baijian is, he must want to rest. I’ll go home and make you some porridge and nutritious food. You just rest.” Ji Yunlei also chimed in, “Then rest some more.” Ji Baijian didn’t say more.

Ji Yunlei and Zhang Qingmei left the bedside.

“Zhizhi.” Ji Yunlei turned around, speaking to Song Zhizhi with deep sincerity, “Thank you for bringing Baijian back from M Country. It was difficult over there. I heard about everything you went through. I planned to come immediately, but Baili said you could handle it. Good thing you were there. Without you, I don’t know if Baijian could have come back safely.”

“Dad, you’re being too polite.” Song Zhizhi smiled slightly, “Baijian is my husband. It’s my duty to take care of him.”

“Yes, of course. You two are married now. I almost forgot!” Ji Yunlei laughed, “1 won’t say anything more. There’s a lot to do at work. I’ll leave first. Your aunt will bring over some nourishing foods soon, so Baijian can recuperate.”

“Okay.” Song Zhizhi responded politely.

Ji Yunlei said a few more words, then left with Zhang Qingmei.

When Zhang Qingmei left, she forcefully dragged Ji Baili with her.

Ji Baixin, seeing that her brother wouldn’t die and knowing how he disliked company, decided to leave as well.

Everyone else was exhausted after staying up for two days and nights. Song Zhizhi told them to leave, assuring them she would stay by Baijian’s side.

Gradually, everyone left.

Song Zhizhi noticed that Wei Ziming had no intention of leaving. She approached him, “Brother Ziming, you haven’t had a good rest for the past two days either. You should go home. Xiaolang is here with me.”

Wei Ziming looked at her, then glanced at the bedridden Ji Baijian.

Then he said, “Zhizhi, come with me for a minute.”

Song Zhizhi hesitated, feeling that Wei Ziming was very adamant, so she followed him out of the room.

In the hospital room, Ji Baijian seemed to open his eyes, glanced towards the door, and then closed them again.

In the VIP corridor, Wei Ziming and Song Zhizhi walked one after another.

Wei Ziming seemed to be in a serious mood.

Song Zhizhi could feel it.

Wei Ziming suddenly stopped.

Song Zhizhi watched as he turned around to face her. “Zhizhi, don’t you find Ji Baijian weird?” Wei Ziming asked.

“1 do.” Song Zhizhi nodded.

She had found him strange from the very beginning.

But…

She bit her lip.

She trusted Ji Baijian, at least trusted he wouldn’t harm her.

He wouldn’t be like Yi Wenhan, who brought ruin to their family with a hidden agenda.

This hatred, no matter when she thought about it, it was filled with anger, immense anger, wishing she could grind Yi Wenhan into dust.

“Why does it have to be him? He is very dangerous,” Wei Ziming spoke firmly, “Leaving everything else aside, isn’t he getting close to you with some purpose? But you being with him indeed brings a lot of danger. Up till now, I have been suspecting that your earlier pursuit in Beixia Country might have been because of him.”

“No,” Song Zhizhi stated confidently.

Wei Ziming looked at Song Zhizhi.

Song Zhizhi said, “No, it isn’t. I know very well that it has nothing to do with Ji Baijian! The people who want to kill me, it’S not him!”

“I am not saying that he wants to kill you, but that he puts you in danger. I can’t imagine why an ordinary businessman like Ji Baijian would be subject to such severe retaliation, why he would possess skills that ordinary people do not!”

Song Zhizhi didn’t know how to explain as she wasn’t sure herself.

And she didn’t want to say anything to refute Wei Ziming. She knew he was looking out for her.

She also couldn’t imagine what she would end up like if she made the wrong choice again and ended up like her past life – losing everything she held dear.

She said, “Brother Ziming, thank you. I know your concerns, but I have my considerations too.” Wei Ziming looked at her, clearly wanting to say something but holding back.

Song Zhizhi said, “I know how to protect myself. If Ji Baijian really has ulterior motives towards me, I would not stick to him. I only like him now because he has not harmed me in any way. If he does, I

will guard my heart quicldy. This is my bottom line for myself and for him.”

She knew very well from a very early age.

Between them, love runs deep but personal interest runs deeper.

Wei Ziming didn’t say any more.

Probably, he knew that saying more would be useless.

But he wouldn’t hide his concerns, he didn’t want her to be unhappy, even if he yes, he liked her a lot.

He has liked her since they were children.

But he has been restraining himself.

Because Song Zhizhi didn’t like him, because she only considered him as a brother.

And he didn’t want his feelings to tarnish the image of beauty that he has in Song Zhizhi’s heart.

Song Zhizhi’s mother had nurtured him, a grace he could never repay. Before her aunt passed away, he promised to take care of her in her place. For a long time, he kept betraying his promise because his uncle asked him to develop well in the team; the best way he could repay them was to try hard. So he tried very hard.

All these years, it wasn’t that he couldn’t return while he was in the team, he just didn’t want to harbor affection for Song Zhizhi.

He thought, if he didn’t see her, he might stop thinking about her.

Indeed, he was trying to restrain himself by dulling his feelings with rigorous training to forget that he still had feelings for her. But everything collapsed the moment he came back to arrange for Song Zhizhi’s bodyguard. It collapsed bit by bit.

It turns out that when you like someone, you can’t hide it.

If you hide it, it will seep out and slowly corrode you.

He knew very well, Song Zhizhi would not like him, and he… could only stand by her side, playing the role of a brother.

And as a brother, he should protect his sister.

He vowed to protect Song Zhizhi’s safety, by any means necessary!

Song Zhizhi watched Wei Ziming leave.

She didn’t know why, but she always felt guilty towards Wei Ziming.

Actually, it seemed like she hadn’t done anything to hurt Wei Ziming, but deep down, she felt as if she had done something wrong to him.

She took a deep breath.

Perhaps it was because she had been ignoring Wei Ziming’s kind reminders for some time now.

If one day she was killed by Ji Baijian, then she truly asked for it!

She turned around and returned to Ji Baijian’s ward.

When she wasn’t facing Ji Baijian, she could be rational, but when she faced him, she knew very well that it was difficult for her to leave him on her own.

She really loved him.

She walked over.

Luo Xiaolang was sitting on the sofa at this moment, looking obviously exhausted.

“Xiaolang, go take a bath. I had our housemaid bring some of our clothes over.

“Okay.” Luo Xiaolang nodded.

And then he got up and headed to the bathroom.

Song Zhizhi then sat beside Ji Baijian’s bed.

Ji Baijian seemed to be asleep right now.

His breath was steady, even though his brows were slightly furrowed.

Song Zhizhi looked at his appearance, her fingers lightly smoothing his furrowed brows.

“Ji Baijian, people say you are not a simple man, who exactly are you?” She murmured. Ji Baijian was seemingly deep in sleep, not opening his eyes due to her voice.

Song Zhizhi tenderly leaned against his side.

She didn’t know, what the future would look like.

But she… inexplicably, was reluctant to let go of the warmth of this moment.

His warmth, a warmth she was familiar with.

A moment’s sleep.

Everyone was deep in slumber.

Luo Xiaolang was actually quite a sound sleeper, but undeniably, she had an amazing ability to awaken; she could be snoring one second and fully alert for battle the next.

This woman was truly out of the ordinary.

Song Zhizhi wasn’t as much of a deep sleeper, but due to the physical exhaustion of the past couple of days, she slept a long while.

She remembered vaguely receiving the change of clothes that the servant brought over, then groggily handing clothes to Xiaolang, then groggily taking a bath. After being in the rain for several days, her period hadn’t eased but rather became entirely a flood, probably a sign of a body weakened by overexertion.

After freshening herself up, Song Zhizhi then laid down on Ji Baijian’s bed.

Since there were only two beds in the room and Luo Xiaolang was sleeping on one, she could only sleep next to Ji Baijian.

Ji Baijian’s bed was large, a super VIP hospital bed, a full 2 meters, enough for the two of them to sleep comfortably.

And she, sleeping next to Ji Baijian, slept more soundly than ever before.

So soundly that Ji Baijian had already woken up, but she was still hugging his shoulder, sleeping sweetly.

Ji Baixin looked at the couple and couldn’t help but smile.

She put down the thermos in her hand.

It was sent to her by her mother.

Zhang Qingmei actually disliked Ji Baijian a lot, but due to face-saving reasons, she had to be nice to him, yet she felt extremely unbalanced deep down! She questioned why she should serve Ji Baijian when there were no benefits for her. If Ji Baijian’s health improved, the Jihong Group would have nothing to do with her dear son, which was utterly maddening!

Ji Baixin sometimes found her mother quite speechless.

If you dislike my big brother so much, then why do you spend the whole afternoon stewing porridge with diligence! It would be fine just to let the servants do it!

Having done all that, you are still venting your frustrations.

She really couldn’t understand her mother’s mentality. More importantly, after venting, she still made her bring it over.

“It’S made by my mother,” Ji Baixin said.

She didn’t try to stir up any emotional conflict.

Their family wasn’t full of plotting and scheming. She just disliked her mother’s character; that even if she hated something, she still pretended to be fine with it.

Ji Baijian leaned half up on the hospital bed, nodded slightly.

Ji Baixin ladled out the porridge and placed it next to Ji Baijian’s bed, “Drink it later when it cools down, it’s a bit hot now.”

“Hmm.”

“I’ll leave now if there’s nothing else, ” Ji Baixin said.

Ji Baijian didn’t ask her to stay.

The three siblings mostly interacted in this manner, not very talkative, often even seeming distant. Yet they avoided the common upper-class practice of sibling rivalry, their emotions were subtle and yet oddly harmonious.

The moment Ji Baixin left, she abruptly paused her steps, “Are you really just going to let your sister-in-law drool all over your arm?”

Ji Baijian didn’t react.

Okay then.

She was being a busybody.

She just remembered, Ji Baijian was a super clean freak, or rather, he was obsessively clean.

As expected.

Song Zhizhi was indeed his true love.

Ji Baixin walked out of the ward, as the door opened.

Face to face, almost colliding with someone walking in.

Yin Qin quickly stabilized his body.

He speculated that if he knocked into Ji Baixin, she would have skinned him..
