At home.
"A Yang, I'm sorry," Zheng Jiayue lowered her head and her eyes were misty. She clutched the corner of Ji Yang's clothes and choked, "It's all me, it's all my fault."
She knew how eager Ji Yang was to earn Ji family's recognition, and she ruined all his efforts.
"It's not because of you," Ji Yang turned around, stooping slightly. He reached out his hand to lightly pinch her cheek and whispered, "Jia Jia, I'm tired. Even if I work hard, I won't be recognized in the end. On the contrary, I'll implicate you to suffer grievances."
Zheng Jiayue looked up, tears gus.h.i.+ng out and shook her head desperately.
She wasn't wronged, and she wouldn't ever be wronged with him.
Ji Yang reached out with his fingers, helping her wipe off her tears. He held her face and apologized, "I don't have work. I may not be able to give you the life I promised you before, but I will try my best."
"I can raise you," Zheng Jiayue sobbed, seriously stating this sentence.
Ji Yang laughed, "Then, I'm really miserable. How dare I marry you?"
Zheng Jiayue stopped crying and smiled, making her way into his arms and held him tightly. She buried her head in his chest, "I'm not afraid to live a hard life. Uncle Ji doesn't recognize you at all. I'm sad to see that you are wronged. If you promise a good life in return for your grievances, I don't want it."
"A Yang, I think that if you leave the Ji business and go to any other company, it can't be any worse than it is now. I believe in you."
She hugged him, recounting his grievances while she observed his expression. Seeing that he wasn't unhappy, she proceeded to boldly say, "Don't mention stocks, you don't even get bonuses. A Yang, the results that you got by working overtime was ultimately turned into Ji Wei's capital to coax Grandpa Ji. In these recent years, you only get a salary. They are crus.h.i.+ng you and using you."
She had wanted to say these words for a long time. But, seeing his expectation and persistence, she couldn't say them and could only silently feel hurt.
"I'm sorry to have let you feel grievances," Ji Yang was taciturn, holding her in his arms and sighed. "I just wanted to get uncle's approval, so I could let you marry me grandly."
No matter how capable he is, it's hard to marry the only daughter of the Zheng family without the platform of the Ji family.
"It's all good if you're the one who marries me. I will persuade dad and mom," Zheng Jiayue promised and whispered in his arms. "A Yang is the one I want to marry most, I will not marry if it's not you!"
Her voice was delicate yet stubborn.
Ji Yang hugged her tightly, stroked her head twice, and sighed, "Silly girl."
The Ji family is really calculating. Zheng Jiayue can see it clearly.
In the current project, the original owner led the team to work overtime for 3 months. Once they succeeded, the Ji business stock soared and all the credit was s.n.a.t.c.hed by Ji Wei. However, he was set up by Ji Wei and Ning Wen because of his overtime fatigue. Ji Yang actually wanted to see if Father Ji could throw him away like what Father Ji said.
"I'm not silly," Zheng Jiayue looked up at the injury on his face and her eyes were filled with worry. "I'll help you apply some medicine, or it might get worse tomorrow. Ji Wei is so hateful. How can he hit you! I hate him to death!"
She was so angry that her cheeks puffed up and she went to find the medicine.
Ji Yang didn't retort, his eyes filled with laughter.
In reality, he was only hit by Ji Wei once. He aimed for the other party's bones and joints, so it couldn't be found what the other party's injuries were. However, Ji Wei wouldn't stop hurting for several months.
"I'll be gentle, it won't hurt." Ji Wei was arranged to sit on the sofa. Zheng Jiayue stood with a cotton swab, a little afraid to start. She gently dabbed and slightly blew on his injury. She opened her clear and bright big black eyes, moving carefully for fear of hurting him.
Ji Yang's corner of his mouth turned up into a soft smile. Somewhat infatuated, he reached out his hands to embrace her slender waist and snuggled close to her, "En."
"This medicine is very good. It will be much better tomorrow," Zheng Jiayue said while applying medicine, occasionally scolding Ji Wei.
"My heart hurts to death," she placed the medicine down and directly sat on his lap. She pouted, looked at his face, and extremely angrily said, "Ji Wei is really too much, he knows to bully you."
Ji Yang's temperament was calm and gentle. Moreover, he lived in the Ji family and depended on them, so it was inevitable that he would feel a little inferior. Therefore, from little, he was bullied by Ji Wei.
Zheng Jiayue, who saw this scene since childhood, was distressed.
"I will not be bullied by him in the future," Ji Yang hugged her, promising her.
