After Ji Chen hung up the call with Gu Xiao, he looked up at the blue sky and felt much more relaxed.

He picked up the phone again and dialed Yang Hong’s number.

“Why would a busy person like you have time to call me?” Yang Hong’s smiling voice came from the other end of the phone.

“I’ve officially left the Ji Group and will be able to return to Radiant today.”

There was no sound from Yang Hong’s side for a moment. Then, Ji Chen heard the sound of the chair sc.r.a.ping against the floor. It seemed that Yang Hong was too surprised and stood up directly, and the chair also moved.

“Are you telling the truth?”

There was a hint of surprise in Yang Hong’s tone, as well as a hint of probing, as if he did not believe that Ji Chen could return to Radiant so easily.

“Of course.”

After getting Ji Chen’s affirmation again, Yang Hong waved his right fist in the air on the other side of the phone to express his celebration. Then, he said to Ji Chen impatiently, “That’s good. Come back quickly! I’ll bring you to have a big meal to celebrate your return to the company this afternoon!”

After Yang Hong finished speaking, he hung up as if he was afraid that Ji Chen would go back on his word.

Ji Chen took down the phone next to his ear. His smiling face was reflected on the screen.

He put away his phone and left the villa where the Ji family’s old residence was without looking back.

While Ji Gao was accompanying Du Li and Ji Lin in the hospital, the butler called.

When Ji Gao saw the butler’s phone number, he instantly felt guilty. He glanced at Du Li and Ji Lin at the side and walked out with his phone.

When he reached the hospital corridor, he pondered for a while before finally making up his mind to answer the call.

“h.e.l.lo? Butler You? Why are you looking for me?”

Could it be that the old master had heard about what happened yesterday and knew about his reputation in the entire circle, so he came to denounce him?

However, the old man was living in seclusion and did not have any good friends. It should not have spread to the old man’s ears so quickly.

Butler You did not hide anything and told him about what happened between Ji Chen and Old Master Ji today.

After understanding what had happened, Ji Gao’s guilty conscience instantly turned into a ball of excitement.

If that was really the case, then, didn’t that mean that he could return to the Ji Group? As long as he could return to the Ji Group, he would see who else would dare to discuss him outside!

Ji Gao hurriedly hung up the phone and quickly returned to Ji Lin’s ward.

He glanced at Ji Lin, who was resting on the bed, then walked to Du Li’s side and briefly explained why he was returning to the Ji residence now.

When Du Li heard Ji Gao’s words, a glint flashed across her eyes when Ji Gao could not see.

By the time Ji Gao looked over, Du Li had already restrained her thoughts and turned into a dodder flower that could only rely on Ji Gao.

She looked pitiful, but she also looked like she knew what the sensible thing to do now was.

“Hubby, I know. Go back quickly! Don’t let outsiders take advantage of the situation. I’ll take good care of Lin Lin. Hubby, don’t worry.”

Ji Gao was very touched when he saw how Du Li could not bear to part with him, but still regressed for his career.

He lowered his head and kissed Du Li lightly. After comforting her, he hurriedly left.

Hence, Ji Gao did not see Du Li’s eyes that had instantly calmed down after he left.

With the Ji Group was hanging in front of him as bait, Ji Gao rushed from the hospital to the Ji family’s old residence in an hour.

The moment Old Master Ji saw Ji Gao, he glared at him angrily. He picked up the ornament on the table and threw it in Ji Gao’s direction.

“Look at the good son you’ve taught! It’s because you’re useless as a father that the son you’ve taught is so rebellious!”

Previously, when Ji Gao was angry and threw something at Ji Chen, Ji Chen did not dodge. Now, in front of Old Master Ji, he did not dare to dodge at all. He could only watch helplessly as the ornament got closer and closer to him.

Fortunately, there was still some distance between Ji Gao and Old Master Ji. Old Master Ji was old and his grip was much weaker than Ji Gao’s.

The ornament had already fallen from the air before it hit Ji Gao.

Old Master Ji snorted coldly. “Now, 1 don’t care what method you use to shut down that little brat’s company! I want to see the effect within ten days!”

Ji Gao looked at Old Master Ji’s furious expression and knew that he was serious.

In order to return to the Ji Group, so what if it was his son’s company? He would definitely complete the mission given by Old Master Ji!

Coldness and hatred flashed across Ji Gao’s eyes..
