However, reality soon invaded his thoughts –”No fever, Brother Jing? Is your brain damaged, then? Maybe your brain is dead, as Sister Shangguan says.”
They were currently at the rooftop of the office building of Jingsheng Enterprise and there was no one else in sight.
Jing Yiran thought of something and started to rip Lu’s clothes, roughly.
Startled, Lu tossed her favorite lollipop onto the ground. With clothes clenched tightly in her hands, she stuttered for the first time.
“Brother Jing, are you… you … trying to rape me? I… I will scream! I know that I am good-looking but… but you are not my husband and you can’t take off my clothes. We… We are man and woman and I am a grownup. I can’t get close to you.”
Jing Yiran ignored what she said and ripped off Lu’s clothes.
The exposed skin was white and tender, yet there were many scars, both conspicuous and light. Some of them had even faded away.
Lu had a totally different reaction towards Jing Yiran today from that day when he did the same thing at the villa.
Confused, Jing Yiran burst out. “Lu, do you have schizomania?”
Jing Yiran was shocked himself after he spilled out the words.
Schizomania?
No, he corrected his thoughts. She was suffering from a personality dissociation!
He had seen two kinds of Lu’s personalities. At the beginning, it was quite weird, but later, he got used to it.
It was not until today when this thought flashed across his brain.
Lu’s behaviour matched with the symptoms of personality dissociation.
There were two individuals with independent awareness inside her body.
Being stripped off by Jing Yiran, Lu cried out in tears. “Brother Jing, you are so bad. You have ripped off the clothes which Sister Shangguan gave me. She bought these clothes for me in the UK. Repay me!! And look at my lollipop. It is all broken. You must make up for that, too.”
Startled, Jing Yiran wiped off her tears as he pampered her. “Lovely Lu, I will buy you a lollipop and new clothes as well, come with me, okay?”
Lu looked up and said innocently, “Okay, okay! I will come with you. But I must tell Sister Shangguan first. She says that I have to tell her wherever I go.”
Jing Yiran nodded in composure. “Don’t worry, let’s go first and we can make a call to her later.”
He took off his overcoat and draped over Lu, took her into the elevator, reached the underground parking lot and drove her to his own villa.
Jing Yiran asked the servants to buy chocolates and candy whilst making Lu stay next to him. He kept talking to her.
He wanted to use all possible means to find the other Lu hidden inside the body.
Lu forgot about Shangguan Ning and Lu Qing’s words immediately after being surrounded by candies and Jing Yiran who was spending time with her.
Back in the President’s office in Jingsheng Enterprise, Shangguan Ning sat next to Jing Yichen with one hand holding her chin and the other in Jing Yichen’s, asking him in bewilderment. “It is so strange, why would Family Ji’s Enterprise ask an outsider to take over the deputy president’s position? Isn’t that too dangerous? He has already got 20% shares and with that power, he has become too powerful. Aren’t they worried that he can cause them harm?”
Jing Yichen rubbed Shangguan Ning’s smooth fingers softly as he said calmly, “It can’t be Ji Bo’s idea. Yang Muyan is the one behind this. I am sure that Family Ji’s Enterprise will certainly do something in the next few days. Maybe it is the time for us to do something as well.”
“Do something?” Shangguan Ning looked bewildered. “Are you planning to buy out Family Ji’s Enterprise?”
Wasn’t that being a bit too lofty?
Pride hovered over Jing Yichen’s handsome face. “Why not? Family Ji’s Enterprise is in a dangerous position with a chaotic infight. It is quite easy to buy it out at this moment. We didn’t do it before because I was too lazy to care about it. But if they want to irritate me, they have to be ready to be eaten up by me.”
Shangguan Ning suspected that Jing Yichen was trying to cause grief to Ji Bo.
And the best way to do so was to buy out Family Ji’s Enterprise that he cared so much about.
With head leaning against Jing Yichen, Shangguan Ning looked at their hands that were joined.
She said, “I support you but you have to promise that you mustn’t get hurt. Acquiring Family Ji is not a piece of cake. You must plan well, in case it backfires.”
Jing Yichen smiled. “Don’t worry, nothing would dare to go wrong. It will be broken before it does. Wait for my good news, and before long, Family Ji would disappear from A City.”
Shangguan Ning found him sounding determined.
Everything Jing Yichen had made up his mind to do, had succeeded. Shangguan Ning had a feeling that Jingsheng Enterprise was definitely going to buy out the second biggest business enterprise of A City.
Shangguan Ning suddenly pitied Ji Bo. He might be regretting having combined forces with Yang Muyan.
Ji Bo had no time to regret anything. He was not entirely cured before he boarded the plane back home. He went directly to Ji Minjue’s villa after he got off the plane.
The uncle and the nephew talked until midnight, during which time they argued and shouted at each other, until finally, they calmed down.
The following day, Ji Minjue gave up the position and Ji Bo officially took over the position of the President of Family Ji’s Enterprise.
Unexpectedly, Ji Bo was supported by all the top managers of Family Ji’s Enterprise. Suddenly, he had become the most popular president in the company. Even the old cadres who used to be devoted to Ji Minjue had all bent their knees to Ji Bo.
When Jing Yichen got to know about this matter, he smiled, showing no change of emotion at all.
He had expected that Ji Bo would become the president. But he might have achieved the goal a bit too quickly.
After all, Ji Bo was not extreme. He loved his family, so he would never do anything to hurt his uncle.
But some abnormal methods must have been used when Ji Minjue was replaced.
Ji Bo was actually in a panic.
