Chapter 329: Defend Sister-In-Law’s Favor

Han Yin was young. She had to go through the legal process to get her pay. Although it wasn’t a lot, she was relieved that she could quickly return the money to Shen Hanxing.

“Do you have enough money to spend now?” Shen Hanxing didn’t decline and asked with concern, “if you don’t have enough money, you can pay it back slowly. You still have a lot of opportunities to earn money. Don’t be in a hurry.”

“I have enough money. I still have much money left after I pay you back,” Han Yin smiled and said, “isn’t the commercial street going to be developed in the west of the city? I want to rent a small shop to let my parents sell some food.”

“Not bad. Your plan sounds great,” Shen Hanxing nodded happily, “your mother’s cooking skills are not bad. Your shop will get plenty of customers.”

“I have the same thought,” Han Yin smiled as she held Shen Hanxing’s arm. Affectionately and coquettishly, she said, “Hanxing, I can finally earn money by myself. Let’s go shopping? Director Zheng Youcai gave me two days off. Let’s go out and play today!”

Without waiting for Shen Hanxing to speak, Ji Mo said first, “Since that’s the case, why don’t sister-in-law bring Ji Ning along? Ji Ning doesn’t have many friends of the same age, and she rarely goes out to play.”

“Xiao Ning?” Shen Hanxing’s gaze landed on Ji Ning.

Ji Ning nervously clenched her fingers and summoned her courage to ask, “I… Can I go with you?” She didn’t like going out. Even though she was no longer afraid and was completely different from the shivering Ji Nin,g who had just been brought to the Ji family, she still didn’t like going out. In the past, she had stayed at home and locked herself in her room because that was the only way she could protect herself. She had no friends and did not dare to interact with others. She could only wait in the dark room and rot like a plant without sunlight.

However, the current Ji Ning was enjoying the time alone. Although she was still shy, she was born facing the sun and had her hobbies. Furthermore, she could learn with Maestro Lin Ran and the others. However, the situation this time was different. This time, she was going out to defend her sister-in-law’s favor. She had to go!

“Of course,” Shen Hanxing’s heart softened when she saw Ji Ning’s watery eyes.

“I’ll go and change,” Ji Ning cheered up and strode upstairs.

“I’ll go back to my room to read,” Ji Mo lowered his eyes and stood up obediently. He said to Shen Hanxing, “sister-in-law, have fun.”

When Ji Ning had changed her clothes and left the room, she had just opened the door when she saw Ji Mo leaning against the wall, his eyes drooping. No one knew what he was thinking. When he was in front of his sister-in-law, Ji Mo looked extremely obedient. He was a good student and younger brother. However, in front of others, Ji Mo was not like this. He would reveal the gloominess and coldness of an adult.

“Ji Mo?” Ji Ning stopped and carefully moved over as she asked, “why are you standing here?”

Ji Mo lifted his head and looked at Ji Ning. He couldn’t understand how the Ji family, where every elder brother and sister had their personalities and their detestable traits, could produce such an innocent person like Ji Ning? He couldn’t hate her even if he wanted to.

“You don’t wish sister-in-law to be s.n.a.t.c.hed away by others, right?” Ji Mo went straight to the point, “Han Yin has bad intentions. You have to be careful when you go shopping. Don’t let her monopolize big sister-in-law.” No matter what, Ji Ning’s surname was Ji. It was much better than having his sister-in-law s.n.a.t.c.hed away by an outsider! Han Yin had been trying to persuade their sister-in-law to divorce their brother through the phone.

“Hmph, divorce? Don’t even think about it!” Ji Mo thought.

Speaking of this, Ji Ning instantly tensed up and nodded without hesitation. “Don’t worry. I will!” She was wary of Han Yin now. Ji Mo was the cleverest of the siblings apart from her big brother. Since he said so, Han Yin was a great threat, and she had to be extremely vigilant.

Ji Ning seemed to be shouldering a heavy responsibility as she solemnly clenched her fists. The task of protecting their sister-in-law was handed to her! Thus, when they arrived at the shopping mall, whenever Han Yin wanted to get close to Shen Hanxing and act coquettishly, Ji Ning would take a step forward and casually insert herself between the two of them, trying her best to change the topic.

“So annoying!” Han Yin’s eyes widened, and her hands were on her hips as she thought. Suddenly, she pressed her palms together and asked, “Sister Hanxing, can I have a cup of milk tea today? Director Zheng Youcai said I’m too fat to look good on camera. I’ve been controlling my diet and haven’t had milk tea for a long time.”
