My Lady, To Defeat Scumbags You Must Start Early

Chapter 156 - 156: 152: Iron Cannot Be Made Into Steel (Five Updates)

A room inside.

Zhang Qingmei came in from outside the room.

Ji Baili looked at his mother, “Mom, I’m grown up now. Can you knock on the door before you come in next time?”

Ji Baili had been back home for two days.

After Song Zhizhi had an accident and stayed in Beixia Country for an extra day, a special flight was arranged to bring them back to their country first, and they gave assurances that they would provide a reasonable explanation for Song Zhizhi’s accident!

“So soon you’re starting to dislike me!” Zhang Qingmei was annoyed.

Ji Baili rolled his eyes, not saying more.

Zhang Qingmei didn’t care, and said excitedly, “I just passed by the study and heard your brother and your dad arguing.”

“Why do you always take such pleasure in others’ misfortune, Mom.”

“How can you be so stupid! If your dad and your brother don’t get along well, who benefits?” Zhang Qingmei said reproachfully.

Ji Baili rolled his eyes again.

He knew very well how much he weighed on the scales.

He stood no chance against that old monster, Ji Baijian.

“I don’t understand. Ji Baijian looks very respectful to your father but never actually does what your father asks him to. Each time, your father ends up spitting blood with rage, but he has always favored Ji Baijian. Is he blind? Hasn’t he noticed that he has another son!” Zhang Qingmei complained unhappily.

At least three times a week.

Ji Baili had developed a thick skin.

He normally never said much, but he couldn’t take it today and retorted, “If my dad had as poor a judgment as you, Jihong Group would have gone bankrupt long ago.”

“Ji Baili, I’m your mother, show me some respect.”

” Ji Baili made it plain. “Ji Baili, how can you have no ambition!” Zhang Qingmei hit her son’s arm furiously.

Ji Baili bore it.

It wasn’t that he lacked ambition.

When he was a child, he considered giving a good performance too, Ji Baijian was just two years older than him, and his father placed unlimited prospects on Ji Baijian, which made him envious and wanted to gain his father’s attention as well, so he also tried hard, but no matter when, he would always end up reduced to nothing.

Nothing was left.

So he compromised.

He always felt that Ji Baijian was an unusually superior creature, whose thought level was simply not on his level.

He was beyond his reach.

“Enough, enough.” Ji Baili was impatient, “You should go back and take good care of yourself, Mom. I can see wrinkles on your face. My dad might be dissatisfied and keep a mistress outside.”

“What nonsense are you talking about!” Zhang Qingmei lectured him again. Then suddenly remembered, “Oh, where is your sister?”

“How should I know? She’s all grown up too and has her own work and life. You shouldn’t worry so much about her!”

“Shouldn’t I worry?! Is Ji Baixin easy to deal with?! She makes such a mess, but the Yin family doesn’t despise her. She acts like a proud peacock. If I were her, I’d cling to the Yin family and never let go.” Zhang Qingmei ranted again.

Ji Baili really couldn’t stand it anymore.

He pushed his mother, “Mom, why don’t you go do some beauty treatments or yoga? Stop worrying about me and my sister, okay?”

“Can I stop worrying? Both of you ungrateful kids…clang.”

The door was shut.

Zhang Qingmei stomped her foot.

No one in the family ever gave her peace of mind.

All these assets in Ji’s family, she could only look at them but not touch them. It really was driving her crazy..
